| being found not guilty due to mental condition is the same as being found guilty. He will be in a hospital being treated for the rest of his life. If the time comes where he is well enough to be out of there, he will serve the rest of his sentence in jail minus the time he spent in the hospital. |

Not quite accurate. In Canada, a ruling of not criminally responsible due to mental disease or defect means that the person deemed NCR is not acquitted but also not considered culpable (as to be culpable one must have committed a wrongful act actus reus and had the intent to commit a wrongful act mens rea - if one is NCR it is because they are incapable of possessing mens rea). Someone deemed NCR they are remanded to a secure mental health facility for an indefinite period of time, which is to say until they are deemed no longer a threat... could be 10 days, could be until death. Interestingly... only 7.5% if persons released after an NCR ruling are ever convicted of a criminal offense thereafter. |
