Should I feel bad that doing my job sometimes means that murderers and other types of law-breakers have gone free or have received a lesser sentence than they likely would have otherwise?
I know that it's my job to give them a fair and unbiased diagnosis, but sometimes I wonder if their mental state really warrants the crime they might have committed.
After all, nobody is a perfect model of normality, at least by psychological standards.
