摘要：The study presents a recent homicidal case in which the forensic psychiatricexamination made after the felony was committed, invalidated a pre-existingdiagnosis which would have led to a lack of judgment. In fact, the murderer was achronic alcohol addict with behavior disorders, all of these on a mediumintellectual background. Anyway, he was not a schizophrenic, a diagnosis he wasgiven years before, more probably for a sort of social protection in his favor, so hecould be hospitalized in a psychiatric institution for chronicle mentally disorderedpatients. This leads, once again, to the extraordinary importance and value of theforensic psychiatric examination in the law field.
