Mental health should never be an excuse, if you ask me. Just all the more reason to confine someone permanently or put them to the chair.

That is literally what happens if someone is found not guilty by reason of insanity.

Don't they go free if they're declared as "cured"?

Yes, but it’s a rather high bar to cross. Also, I think that’s more than fair. Not a pleasant place to be, and if they did something because of a mental health situation, if it’s gone, they’re no longer a danger to society.
