A person declared to be insane is someone who has been legally recognized as unable to understand the nature of their actions or distinguish right from wrong due to a mental disorder. This determination typically occurs during court proceedings, often in the context of criminal cases, where the individual may be deemed not responsible for their actions. The declaration can lead to different legal consequences, such as treatment in a mental health facility instead of imprisonment.
