I have my doubts that he will get the death penalty, his state of mind and his mental illness will be key points for the defense.
I'm not sure how it works, but he has to understand the difference from right and wrong and be fully aware of his act.
I'm not sure that he is going to be able to dicern right from wrong in this case.
Maybe one of the lawyers here understands death penalty codes.
I would expect that his treatment will be the same as the guy who shot RR, life long incarceration in a mental facility.
On a personal note and not to sound liberal, because usually I'm not, I'd almost rather not see him as a death penalty statistic if he is truly mentally ill and not in control of himself.
