"I see from your criminal record that you were tried and found not criminally responsible for first degree murder. Please explain"

"Y'see, I was on this bus, right? And there was this shifty eyed character sitting toward the back listening to that damned rap music. That's when God told me to exterminate all evil."

"Uh, huh... Then what?"

"So I took out my knife and I stabbed him. Then I stabbed him again. And again and again until I was sure that the demon inside him was dead."

"I see. Then what?"

"Then I cut off his head and showed it to the onlookers as a warning that I was going to find all evil and exterminate it. But then I got hungry, so I took a bite."

"Really. So how is it that you weren't criminally responsible for this?"

"Well, it was just such a bizarre crime that no judge in the country would believe that I was sane when I did it. Lack of sanity equals not criminally responsible. So I had to spend 10 years in the psych ward but they cured me."

"Ok. Well, seeing's how you weren't deemed criminally responsible, I guess you fit the bill! Welcome aboard!!"
