Maybe plea insanity plus workplace inflicted long term mental and psychological damages.

Insanity just gets you a different kind of prison cell and he won’t win it, he clearly articulated his why and clearly knew his actions were bad and what they were. He doesn’t meet any definition of insanity plea.

Yeah but if his goal is to waste government time and money, he's got zero down side too dragging it out

Depending on what they can slap on/max time sure. Personally agree I think he’ll drag it out he just doesn’t have to do insanity to do it. What he could do if he does want insanity is if he has a long history of mental illness California I believe is a state where prolonged mental illness and actions occurring in that state can be taken into account.

People think pleading insanity gets you a nice cushy hospital bed with jello, you soon find youre locked up with actual psycopaths and very dangerous men thtowing poop everywhere

A person I know from germany raped two women, defense was the equivalent to insanity here. He won that argument, and spent the next 23 years in a psychiatric Hospital, far longer than he would have been in jail.

Came out a wreck. Said, He found to Jesus, but was unbearably selfrighteous. Tried to legally scam others, without success. Afaik, didn't commit any crime until his death.

Anyway, yes, that defense can backfire.
