Today's Question:
A man stabbed a woman six times, killing her. The man believed that the woman was evil because the woman was a drug pusher, and that it was his duty to kill her. In fact, the woman was a law-abiding citizen. When interrogated by the police, the man said that he was aware of the fact that the woman died as a result of stab wounds, and that the man expected the police to prosecute him for murder, but that he was acting with respect to a higher law. A psychiatrist, who examined the man for the prosecution, wrote a report saying that the man suffered from a form of schizophrenia with delusions and hallucinations, and that the man had hallucinations of voices which said that the woman was a drug pusher and should be killed. The man was charged with first degree murder. In a jurisdiction which adopted the M’Naghten Test for insanity, would the man be found guilty?
(A) No, because the man did not know the nature of his act.
(B) No, because the man did not know that the act he committed was a crime.
(C) Yes, because his act was not the product of an irresistible impulse.
(D) Yes, because he was able to appreciate the criminality of his act.
