The Durham Rule is a principle used to determine whether the insanity defense used by a person accused of committing a crime is valid or not.
The Durham rule, established in 1954, states that a defendant is not criminally responsible if the unlawful act was a product of mental disease or defect. This rule expanded the legal definition of insanity in criminal cases beyond the M'Naghten rule.
Insanity is not a medical or psychological term. It is an outdated and stigmatizing term to describe mental health issues. Mental health conditions are complex and can vary greatly, so it's important to seek professional help and avoid using outdated or stigmatizing language.
