Insanity Definition

He is Insane!
A few nights ago a man was murdered and we believe we know why the murderer did it. We believe that the man is very insane. He didn't know what he was doing why he murdered the older gentleman. And we have the evidence to prove it.

Evidence #1
For 7 straight nights before the murder, the man went to the old mans house and watched the man as he slept.
"...the whole week before I killed him. And every night, about midnight, I turned the latch of his door and opened it..."( page 1, paragraph 3)

Evidence #2
He claims that he had a very acute sense of hearing. That he could have all things. On page 2, paragraph 10 it says,
"I knew that sound well, too. It was the of the old mans heart."

Evidence #3
After the murder of the old man, the police paid a visit to the house. He wasn't even worried about them catching him. On page 3, paragraph 15 it says, "I smiled-- for what had I to fear? I bade the gentlemen welcome."

Conclusion
In conclusion we strongly believe that the murder for this man was just out of insanity. Not just cause he didn't like the man. He was just plane insane!
