Key legal question
Whether the fourteen-month custodial sentence violated Arts. 47 and 50 CP because it was allegedly too severe and insufficiently reasoned.
Extracted holding
No. The cantonal court properly assessed guilt, multiplicity of offenses, duration of offending, and mitigating factors; the sentence did not exceed its discretion.
Extracted reasoning
The court held that diminished responsibility does not require a mathematical reduction. A sufficient correlation between reduced responsibility and sentence exists if the reasons show why the chosen sanction fits the case. The cantonal court considered the expert assessment, lack of prior convictions, and treatment, and its reasoning was adequate.
