Entry Description A jury instruction on the insanity defense, given without objection at Passwater’s 2004 murder trial, stated in part that the defendant could be committed to a facility for a period of “not more than ninety (90) days.” The jury found Passwater guilty but mentally ill and he was sentenced to fifty-five years. The Madison Circuit Court later denied post-conviction relief with respect to the instruction. The Court of Appeals affirmed, citing Georgopolus v. State, 735 N.E.2d 1138 (Ind. 2000), in a memorandum decision, Passwater v. State, No. 48A05-1201-PC-17, slip op. (Ind. Ct. App., Jul. 25, 2012), vacated. The Supreme Court has granted a petition to transfer the case and has assumed jurisdiction over the appeal. |
