In some states this can be the case. Society suffered for 'insane' criminals being hospitalized for a few years and out repeating their crimes over and over. In some states there are new laws that state 'a person can be insane but still responsible and understood what they did was wrong'.
There are new laws also that says if a person needs to be hospitalized they get the care they need. But once they are deemed better, they must serve out the rest of their sentence in prison.
These new laws have been a big help in the problem of criminal responsiblity and punishment. More of these laws are needed to relieve corrections officers at jails and prisons, who are usually not trained in caring for mentally ill patients. Their jobs are difficult enough.

What percentage of homicides are victim precipitated?
Victims precipitate 0% of all homicides. The decision to commit the crime is still made by the perpetrator and always precipitated by that person. No matter how dumb, naive, careless, greedy, or even guilty of a crime the victim may be, the person who decides to commit the crime against them is still the perpetrator and the person who was subject to the crime is still the victim. The percentage of occurrence that the perpetrator is the only victim of their own crime is negligible, and that person is still the perpetrator.

Can marriage with the second wife perform by a judge be considered polygamy?
If the person was still married to the first wife when the second marriage was performed then this is a crime (not a crime committed by the Judge unless the judge KNEW the person was already married - but a crime committed by the person who is still married). The second marriage is not legal (no matter who performed it) and the person who was still married has committed the crime of polygamy.
