The severity does matter here. Being NCR doesn't absolve someone of the moral responsibility... just the CRIMINAL responsibility of an action. He and family are not showing that they accept moral responsibility in spite of the NCR absolving them of criminal matters, and that is the problematic element.
This is sort of the thing and I'm far, far from an expert, but my understanding is that 'Severity' is considered.

Some people can fall off their meds or have a psychotic break and become a public nuisance for a bit. Some people can murder a room full of kids.

Its quite the range, so you'd better be sure.
