Questione giuridica chiave
Whether serious doubts about the defendant's criminal responsibility required a psychiatric expert opinion under Art. 20 StGB
Decisione estratta
No. The medical certificate concerned the current condition and did not link any disorder concretely to the offense period or the acts; the file also showed no objective indicators creating serious doubts about accountability.
Motivazione estratta
Art. 20 StGB requires expert evidence only where serious doubts exist or should exist. Here, the certificate was general and non-specific, and the defendant's behavior before, during, and after the offenses did not indicate an abnormal mental state warranting an expert opinion.
