You can go online and look up your state's prisons exactaly like that . it will give you a list and you just follow the directions . trust me been there. if you still need help let me know and i could probably walk you thur it. it is pretty much easy\n\nGood Luck

Under the Model Penal Code of criminality, which is the default rule of criminal law in the United States, there are certain defenses that people, who cannot crontrol their own physical functions, can use.\n\nOne of them is the defense of mental illness. \n\nI believe, persoanlly, that if the person in question has been deemed mentally ill by at least three unaffiliated experts, then that person can use the defense as it is prescribed by the Model Penal Code. It is simply too broad of a statement to say that we should hold the mentally ill responsible for their illegal acts. More should be done to help prevent them from getting into those situations.

your public defender can help you.  i suggest you plead guilty for a lighter sentence.  hopefully you can get a few years of probation and no time in the pokey.  good luck.
