Key legal question
Whether a psychiatric expert opinion had to be ordered on the defendant's capacity and responsibility
Extracted holding
No. The record showed no concrete objective signs creating serious doubts about full capacity; the refusal to order an expert was lawful.
Extracted reasoning
The courts found no abnormal mental condition of the required degree. Alleged alcohol and drug use was unsupported or not credible; the defendant's behavior before, during and after the act indicated preserved reality testing and adaptability. A serious offense by a first offender alone does not trigger an examination duty.
