If the Model Penal Code applied in the preceding question, the insanity defense should be available: a. Even if Lenny knew his acts were wrong (or criminal), provided that he lacked substantial capacity to appreciate their wrongfulness (or criminality). b. Even if he had some self-control, provided he lacked substantial capacity to conform his conduct to requirements of law. c. Both of the above. d. None of the above.
