It is very hard to actually get an insanity defense to work. Cannot really see anything though that would allow George Zimmerman to use one. His behavior now is irrelevant to his state of mind when he shot Trayvon Martin which would be the issue with respect to any insanity plea. http://criminal.findlaw.com/criminal...y-defense.html
