Saturday, December 30, 1989 Jurors find murder defendant Camangian legally sane MiKEjfcDEvrrr staff SAN JOSE family members with a large kitchen knife during a Moody rampage. I think the man Is crazy, but not (legally) Insane, said Juror Scott Green of San Jose. The Jury had been deliberating since Thursday of last week, to decide whether Camangian was sane at the time of the killings. Regardless of the verdict, Camangian Is likely to spend the rest of his life confined to a mental Institution, Deputy District Attorney Don Shearer said. But a finding of sanity by the Jury elimi nates the.

possibility that-he could be released on parole, he said. A second-degree murder conviction, would normally bring a sentence of 15 years to life in prison, Shearer said. Judge Paul R. Teilh will decide the sentence on Jan. 26.

The Santa Clara man had pleaded Innocent by reason of Insanity. Defense attorney Cart Llndstrom tried to convince the Jury that Camangian did not know the difference between right and wrong. Camangian told police that a voice In his head told him to stab family members. After an argument with his brother, he killed the brother, two sisters and a niece, and wounded another sister at the family's Santa Clara duplex on the night of June 30, 1988. Camangian suffered from psychosis and was In a drug rehabilitation program while In the Philippines; Llndstrom said.

Doctors have diagnosed him schizophrenic and paranoid, Llndstrom said. Almost everyone (on the Jury) thought be was deranged," Green said. But the law compelled the Jury to find Camangian sane based on the Jurye belief that he was aware during the Incident that he was. harming the victims. Green said.

No matter what happens, hes going to a mental Institution," said Shearer, who acknowledged that Camangian could not be rehabilitated in prison. "I told the Jury, There Is no doubt hes crazy: hes Llndstrom agreed that a longterm con-flnment to a mental institution is the appropriate sentence. A man found guilty of second-degree murder who was described as bananas" by a prosecuting attorney and medically Insane by bis defense attorney, was found legally sane by a jury Friday. The same Santa Clara County Superior Court Jury declared Filipino Immigrant Joselito Camangian guilty last week of four counts of second-degree murder.
