True Crime: The Court of Public Opinion - Mad or Bad - Kahler v. Kansas

In this episode of True Crime: The Court of Public Opinion, we delve into the controversial case of James Kahler, a man convicted of murdering his family, but whose mental illness sparked debates about responsibility. Kansas’ strict laws left no room for the insanity defense, leading to a complex legal battle that made its way to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Was Kahler fully in control, or was his mind too fractured to comprehend his actions? Join Alexis Knight as we explore the blurred lines between mental illness and accountability. You be the judge—mad, or bad?
