The defendant killed someone, blames Havana Syndrome for making him do it and the prosecutor doesn't do the one thing that would slam dunk the case
He doesn't even try to argue that Havana Syndrome isn't real or doesn't make you a homicidal maniac
His argument, if I recall correctly, is basically that he could have gotten help if it was so bad and that failing to do so means he is responsible for killing someone
Which, holy shit, even for the Liberal Reactionary Hogpit that is Law and Order, is something else entirely
when I was around 13 or so I watched a ton of csi. the episode that convinced me that it was complete trash involves the investigation of a fatal hunting accident.
because the victim filed for a hefty life insurance policy recently, the cops are motivated to find the perpetrator.
instead, they discover that the victim actually killed himself to get his wife and unborn child the insurance payout. now, what do the cops do? do they toss the suicide weapon back in the SWAMP, dust off their hands and say "welp it was definitely an accident and this dudes family deserves the payout?"
rofl no this is American TV dumbass. they basically tell the wife LOL good luck being a jobless single mom, we told the insurance company that he suicided so you get nothing.
The best part about this episode?

I'm curious now, do people who commit murder while suffering from eg schizophrenia not get effectively imprisoned in mental hospitals anyway?

Oh, I remember this one
Fuckin' hated CSI because they were basically Proto-Redditors, always being like "We do science, science is perfect just like the law"
