No. It is not the law that all Jails, Prisons, and Penitentiaries have a Psychiatric Ward. If medical personnel at a prison determine that a particular prisoner needs psychiatric treatment, they send him to a prison with a psychiatric ward. The Federal Prison at Marion, Illinois, has a psychiatric ward for Federal Prisoners. The Federal Prison at Pensacola, Florida does not have a Psychiatric Ward. In fact, it does not have any wards. It has cottages and other free standing buildings. Prisoners are not allowed to cross a 4 foot wide white line painted on the pavement unless they are on a work detail.

How often does the insanity defense lead to an acquittal?

(in the US) Nationwide statistics are difficult to come by, but it is not very often. If you raise the insanity plea as a defense against criminal prosecution, if that defense is successful, all it will mean is that you might be acquited. However, you will never be exonerated of your actions and the chances are overwhelming that the defendant adjudged criminally insane will be be institutionalized (sent to a psychiatric hospiital or the psychiatric ward of a prison) to serve at least a good portion of time undergoing psychiatric evaluation and treatment.
