Editing Insanity defense (section)

===Denmark===
In Denmark a psychotic person who commits a criminal defense is declared guilty but is sentenced to mandatory treatment instead of prison. Section 16 of the penal code states that "Persons, who, at the time of the act, were irresponsible owing to mental illness or similar conditions or
to a pronounced mental deficiency, are not punishable".<ref name="Kramp">{{cite web|last=Kramp|first=Peter|title=Concepts and Procedures in the Member States – Denmark|url=http://ec.europa.eu/health/ph_projects/2002/promotion/fp_promotion_2002_frep_15_en.pdf|work=Salize & Dressing (2005): Placement and Treatment of Mentally Ill Offenders – Legislation and Practice in EU Member States|publisher=EU Commission|access-date=July 16, 2012|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130608053719/http://ec.europa.eu/health/ph_projects/2002/promotion/fp_promotion_2002_frep_15_en.pdf|archive-date=June 8, 2013}}</ref> This means that in Denmark, 'insanity' is a legal term rather than a medical term and that the court retains the authority to decide whether an accused person is irresponsible.<ref name="Kramp"/><ref name="Sparr">{{cite journal|last=Sparr|first=Landy F.|title=Personality Disorders and Criminal Law: An International Perspective|url=http://www.jaapl.org/content/37/2/168.full|journal=Journal of the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law Online|publisher=American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law|date=June 2009|volume=37|issue=2|pages=168–81|pmid=19535553|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130413212030/http://www.jaapl.org/content/37/2/168.full|archive-date=2013-04-13}}</ref>
