Albert S. Bill whose presentation of the stfcte': case earlier was almost as brie as Culombe's defense, cross examined only one witness, and very briefly.

He asked Dr. Robert Doherty of Hartford, a psychiatrist who testified that Cniombe is leebe; minded but not psychotic. The testimony went like this: You say he is not psychotic? Yes. That's insanity, isn't it? Yes. So if he's not psychotic he's not insane? That is' correct.
