A 11 Legal Insanity Definition Change Approved by House Salem - (UPD - The House overrode law officers' objec tions and voted Tuesday to re place Oregon's 97 -year -old definition of legal insanity with a new law giving more weight to psychiatric findings of mental trouble. The vote was 35-23. Rep; Ed Elder (R-Eugene) said he will seek reconsideration. The bill passed the Senate earlier 26-1. . Rep. Robert Duncan, an at torney, left the rostrum to make his first appeal for a bill during two sessions as speaker. Members called the lengthy debate the best in the House this session. Duncan declared the new law will permit courts "to bring modern knowledge of human behavior to bear" on the problem of lawbreaklng. He said the "dire conse quences" predicted by oppo nents will be prevented by the "eternal . safeguard . . . the jury.;"-.- . . , Elder, a former sheriff, pro tested the new law would have freed nearly everybody in the' state penitentiary. Quoting a wire from Wil liam 'Frye of Eugene, presi dent of the Oregon District Attorneys' association. Elder declared the new law will give "a nice out for sex of fendors and persons charged with homicide." The present law - the Mc Naghton rule - finds a person legally insane and thus inno cent if he is unable to dis tinguish between right and wrong. ! It was developed in England In 1843. Rep. Oeorge Van Hoomlssen (D-Portland) said it Ignores 100 years of progress in men tal science and is "as defective as the 1843 concept of the construction of the atom." Van Hoomlssen said the present law ties the hands of the courts in weighing psychi atric opinions, and calls on medical experts to make moral judgments. The new law, adopted else where, would broaden the definition, finding a person in nocent if he is unable to un derstand the wrong he is com mitting or unable to control his actions. A person would be legally insane if he "lacks substantial capacity either to appreciate the criminality of his conduct or to conform his conduct to the requirements of law." Van Hoomissen called the new law "a breakthrough to overcome years of prejudice and ignorance." He said it will bring psychiatric aid and rehabilitation to many more people. Duncan said the new law will permit courts to look for criminal "intent . . . this is Births MADDEN To Mr. and Mrs. William F 1092 Hous ton, rd., Medford, April 27, 1981, a girl, 7V4 pounds, at Rogue Valley hospital.
