Same treatment as everyone else. If they plead that they had a mental illness and that's why they commited a crime, well, they knew they had the illness, and had plenty of chances to get help.
Not all mental illnesses are curable amd even with all the help in the world it won't make them better.
Now don't forget when 3 or 4 year olds shoot someone and kill then by accident playing with their parents gun, they should be chagred and put into baby jail, doesn't matter if they didn't know it was wrong.
An adult with a mind of a 5 year old or a 5 year old with the mind of a 5 year old, they both commited a crime. The law may not waiver and there may be no expections in the eyes of the law.....
Yes I do think people who have a mental illness need to have special circumstances.
