description This is a study involving 15 prisoners referred for opinion and mental abnormality. Retrospective analysis of the crime and the situation prevailing helped to develop insight into the homicidal act. In the insanity related homicide, the significant differences were absence of malice aforethought, application of excessive violence, presence of impulsivity and lack of meticulous planning. Murder by the psychotic was invariably a lonely passive affair, the actor lacking guilt feeling, insight, judgement in and towards the criminal situation.
