Key legal question
Whether the refusal to order a psychiatric expert report violated the right to be heard and a fair trial
Extracted holding
No; the complaint was not properly motivated, and in any event the lower court was bound by the established facts and no serious doubt about responsibility was shown.
Extracted reasoning
The defendant failed to raise the procedural complaint timely before the cantonal authorities. The federal appeal also did not meet the strict constitutional motivation requirements, and the expert report sought would have revisited settled findings outside the scope of the remitted proceedings.
