Key legal question
Whether the new psychiatric report justified reopening of the Baden judgment due to diminished criminal capacity
Extracted holding
The new report did not disprove the earlier expert evidence; it was not suitable to establish diminished responsibility for the relevant period.
Extracted reasoning
The periods assessed in the Baden and Bern cases were almost seamlessly consecutive and involved the same life situation. The court found no significant change in the applicant's mental state and accepted the earlier report as plausible. The later report could not outweigh it.
