Can an Alzheimer’s patient get away with rape?

[Vermilioncore]

Let’s say an old man with Alzheimer’s at a nursing home and he escaped and goes into some random home and starts raping a woman. But, he doesn’t mean harm. He doesn’t know what he’s doing. He thinks it’s normal.

Would this man go to prison?

I don’t think it’s ethically or morally right for the court to sentence him to life in prison for something he has no control over. Some Alzheimer’s patients get into fights or even try to hurt themselves. They’re not right in the head.

So what do you think?

If it's diagnosed he wouldn't go to prison, probably hospital and after couple of days / weeks to a psych ward to drug him to death.

Depends how he looks I’d say. Since he’s in a retirement home, he’ll have money, so I’m saying yes, he’ll get away with it.

A homeless veteran with Alzheimers rapes someone? Straight to jail

He will be put into a close mental house, which basically means he would get tortured and drugged which is a heavy punishment I'll say.

Get Sick / Old / Useless enough and the world would kick you in the ass even harder That's my little theory. Good things are given to those who need them the least. This is the meta.

When people search 'pain' on google I get an email.

This happened several times. Generally, they go rot in a psychiatry until their lines are flattened. Some will be restrained with drugs & straps to avoid any further crimes

In October of that year, the then-84-year-old Lee is alleged to have smothered Frank Moir, his 88-year-old neighbour at the long-term care home, a naval veteran described as “a lovely man.” The two men shared a bathroom.

Lee had only been living in the room for a short time. Moir’s wife, Betty, had occupied it until her death a month earlier.

Lee was charged with second-degree murder, a crime for which he would never stand trial. He was found unfit and, with worsening dementia and related paranoia, lived the rest of his life in a secure forensic unit at the Royal Ottawa Hospital, where his family regularly visited and he would sometimes strike out at those providing him with care.
