Marooned on Earth: My life stranded with monkeys

nature is healing

I came from Brazil and despite brazilian law not being perfect - far from it - a lot is the divergence from the writen test to how things are handled in actual reality.

Here since 2018 an insanity plea only works like that if the behavior is a direct threat to people's safety. There is two different forms of psychiatric care withim an insanity plea: ambulatorial and internament. Ambulatorial works closer to probation with the patient neing allowed to go back home as long as he participates in treatment with state apo8nted doctors during the day, internament is what you described.

The period of internament is also not "till he is considerated well" in most cases but a smaller version of the usual sentence withim after if they aren't considered violent they are moved to ambulatorial care.

The difference is taken baeed on a 45 days psych evaluation and the judge's final case. This has been true for less than a decade but is the case.

Also, you have not described a different system. You have described a system where, if people are found not guilty by reason of insanity, they can be in outpatient care for some of their treatment. This is also how it works in the US and UK. If this guy shows that he is capable of modifying his behavior so that he can stop himself from committing crimes, he might also qualify for outpatient care. But this was not the case at the time of his commitment, given that he was still committing crimes while in police custody with his laptop taken away.

Since the 2016 reforms, as far as I can tell, Brazil's system involves remaining in psychiatric care until you are no longer a threat, but the doctors can say "you are non-threatening enough to be in outpatient care for your continued treatment but you still need treatment." The situation is still exactly the same in terms of "you are committed until the doctors decide you won't immediately go back to doing crimes." The reform was "let's make it more like the US or the UK's system where they think more than none at all about how to deinstitutionalize people." It is still not, again as far as I can tell, a system that does not mandate you remain in care until you are no longer a threat. It is still considered to be harsher than the US and UK.

I hope they bring back asylums to the US. People from all over the world keep coming here seeking them. Asylums in their countries must be full of broken. But alas, we have no asylums here.
