It should be a factor in sentencing, at the very least, imo.
The Defense will bring it up and will be a factor. But my point is, in the US, the only way to mount a successful Insanity Defense is if the person can't tell right form wrong and any premeditation (like Titan's Hand or Sleep PKer) the judge would throw it out the window.
