In the US if you can prove you are mentally ill, you usually are not held accountable for your actions. If it is a criminal case, you will be sent to a hospital or the prison psych ward. Here when you are mentally ill you can not be forced to seek help unless you are a danger to others or yourself. So there are a lot of people like Keith.
