Jury may soon decide the fate of Bionca Ellis
Fox 8: Michael Benza, professor of practice at the School of Law, noted that a “not guilty by reason of insanity” verdict would end Bionca Ellis’s criminal case but could lead to her institutionalization if deemed a danger. He emphasizes such verdicts are rare and separate criminal guilt from mental health evaluations and treatment decisions.
