New York State Department of Mental Hygiene<\/strong>. The defendant will be examined by two more psychiatrists who will submit their reports to the Court. After review of those reports the Court will determine the proper place for confinement and treatment of Korzeniewski, as well as the initial duration of his treatment and confinement.<\/p>\n\u201cThis case is such a tragic case. The defendant and the victim were friends. I believe with proper care and treatment that this killing was completely avoidable,” Swanson said. “Our society is struggling right now with how to best manage persons with serious mental health issues. Sadly, in individuals who have a dangerous mental disease or defect, their brain operations fail to mediate provoking feelings like fear, frustration, anger or rage. As a result, these extremely powerful feelings are not mitigated or contained and therefore can result in violent behavior. What happened in this instance was a result of uncontrolled and serious mental disease. The doctors here both agreed that Mr. Korzeniewski was not able to substantially appreciate the wrongfulness of his actions because of his serious mental disease. It was no surprise to us that the two examining doctors agreed on Mr. Korzeniewski\u2019s condition. It was evident at the onset of this case that he was suffering from some sort of serious debilitating condition. I anticipate that Mr. Korzeniewski will be placed in the custody of New York State Department of Mental Hygiene where they will ensure he can never hurt anyone again.\u201d<\/p>\n
