Abstract
Dr. Diamond's courageous defense of the diminished capacity plea in People v. Gorshen (1959) emphasized mental disturbances negating malice aforethought. Diminished capacity as a defense in California remained effective from 1978 to 1982 until overturned by a modified American Law Institute rule. Diamond's advocacy of psychologic elements, including motivation, did much to enliven forensic thinking re: the death sentence and the fated diminished capacity defense.
摘要
戴蒙德博士在“人民诉戈尔申案”（1959年）中对能力减弱抗辩的勇敢辩护强调了否定预谋恶意的精神障碍。能力减弱作为加利福尼亚州的一项辩护，在1978年至1982年期间一直有效，直到被美国法学会修改后的规则推翻。戴蒙德对包括动机在内的心理因素的倡导，在很大程度上活跃了关于死刑和命运多舛的能力减弱辩护的法医思维。
