Question:Is the insanity defence a loophole for terrorists in Canada (and the Western world)?Can the Insanity defence be misused by terrorists?Title:The Thin Line Between Terrorism & Mental IllnessesThe paragraph explaining the main questions:For my research, I’ll focus on terrorism-related court cases post 9/11 era in Canada, USA and UK (the Western world.) I’ll investigate whether the “insanity defence” is too broad and can act as the loophole for terrorists to bypass jail time. Moreover, if it does turn out to be a major loophole that can be used by any criminal unjustly, then I want to discuss how can this loophole be clogged.   Share this:TwitterFacebook
