TUCSON, Ariz. — Was the man charged with shooting and killed University of Arizona professor Thomas Meixner too insane to know what he did was wrong, and for that does he deserve time in a mental hospital instead of prison?

For Dervish to be found guilty but insane, jurors must be convinced Dervish was so deranged he did not know his actions were wrong. So prosecutors are pointing to his planning and his attempted getaway as proof he understood very well what he was doing. Several witnesses read threatening emails from Dervish with language we simply cannot put on the air.
