Just FYI, he's likely not in jail. He is likely in a medical facility. Jails are not equipped for this kind of psychiatric care. I believe that under an insanity ruling, several psychiatric assessments are done and he is sent to a medical facility, not a jail. A jail would be terrible. A jail would not allow proper treatment.
