In the last thread, and again I not skimmed through so pls forgive me, people mentioned something about an insanity defense. Could someone point me in that direction? Was that due to things maybe Tammy's lawyer said?
I remember when they were first rumored to be involved. I remember wondering even then if it were possible Tammy couldn't handle the affair, especially if Heather were compromised, and if it were possible then Tammy just lost it and went nuts.
It takes less than 10 seconds to form premeditation. If that were the case, she could have gone crazy insane while at the same time been able to form premeditation. It's just harder for the prosecution to prove premeditation when n sanity comes into play. Plus, how long is the psych eval? I thought the psych eval actually could last months in a murder charge case.
If Tammy went crazy and killed Heather out of anger over the affair, and Sidney was either there or helped cover it up, then they're both still guilty but Tammy with an insanity defense would hold the stronger cards I think.
Does anyone remember the case of that college professor that got off on an insanity defense of murdering someone when he was younger, then many many years later (last year) somebody told his bosses at the college that he actually murdered somebody, that he only served time in a mental hospital and was released sometime later to start a new life? In which case he did, he became a college professor.
