He stated that when he was laying out his instructions this morning to the jury.

He said that only so the jury wouldn’t find her guilty to avoid her walking. The law is clear, and I’d think he knows it. People with documented mental illnesses can not be held in prisons or jails. If found not guilty by mental disease or defect, she will be turned loose as soon as she is deemed not a threat to society. She’ll be locked up and treated and evaluated in a mental hospital and kept until she is deemed safe. That may be 10 days or 10 years. Perhaps she’ll die first, but more than likely she’d be free first.
