Same here, you have to proof someone is a danger to other or themselves. Still trying to get away with murder claiming you think god is an oreo cookie is pretty hard here. Weve got something called TBS which means prison but psych treatment and youre basically (cause thats the translation) "owned" by the government. You cant do shit. But just claiming insanity and getting away with prison is barely possible here.
