## Resource

Fifty-one-year-old Jaston Eaton stands trial for shooting three Palestinian men in November 2023, with the prosecution arguing he was legally sane despite claims of hearing voices via FM and Bluetooth. A forensic psychiatrist testifies his mental health issues—mostly linked to cannabis use after seven years sober—don’t meet insanity criteria, though she notes narcissistic traits. The defense counters with their own expert, claiming Eaton suffered psychosis that impaired judgment. Eaton, frustrated with his legal team, even asked to represent himself—denied by the judge—as the trial continues to hinge on whether he was mentally unfit at the time of the crime.
