KI-generiert

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal regarding the defendant's criminal liability for severe drunk driving. The defendant argued they lacked criminal capacity at the time of the offense due to mental state, while the prosecution maintained the conviction was valid. The court ruled that the evidence did not establish the necessary lack of capacity to negate criminal responsibility.
