The time lag between finding out about the crime and killing Quill seems like a mere technicality to the Lieutenant and morally justifies Manion's actions in his mind, even though he knows he murdered Quill according to the law.
According to the events presented as by Biegler, despite the fact that the Lieutenant was able to search for and find Quill, have enough presence of mind to arm himself, and then turn himself over to the authorities, he had obviously 'blacked out' during the commission of the crime, and had no recollection of the action. Biegler states to the jury that the Lieutenant "while he felt considerable loathing and contempt for the proprietor he had at no point has any intention of killing or harming" Quill even though, when he went looking for Quill, he took his wife's pistol with him (Traver 361). Needless to say, this seems improbable in the extreme. The absurdity of the scenario is conveyed by Biegler's long 'hypothetical question' about a 'hypothetical defendant' submitted to the defense psychologist, testifying as to Manion's temporary insanity and the Lieutenant's "dissociative reaction" after the horrific sight of witnessing his wife's rape (Traver 362-363; 370).
Manion clearly seems to be freed based upon juror sympathies and the cleverness of his attorney. D.A. Dancer is said to be unaware of how to manipulate the legal doctrine of "irresistible impulse" in a court of law and Biegler, a former prosecutor himself, says that he had never known about the "irresistible impulse" defense until he "unearthed" it for the Manion case (Traver 370). Biegler's language suggests a clear, calculated approach to Biegler's defense that seems more like a legal chess game than an actual defense based upon reason and logic. However, the prosecutor's approach seems no less calculated. For example, the D.A. finds a psychiatrist who says that because the Lieutenant did not have a dissociative reaction while under the stress of combat, it was impossible...

Anatomy Major cavities of the body and their organs: Our body is made up of solid structures and many cavities. The organs are packed in these cavities and they fill these cavities. The major cavities in our body are: the ventral cavity, which is surrounded by the rib cage and the abdominal musculature and dorsal cavity, which is surrounded by the bones of the skull and vertebral column. (Introduction / Terminology) Significance and
However, all muscles are ultimately controlled by the central nervous system. Because the muscles are attached to the skeleton, all skeletal movements can be traced back to the central nervous system. The integumentary system is one of the body's primary interfaces with the outside world. Together with the sensory system, the integumentary system interact with the central nervous system by communicating its inputs. 3. Homeostasis is the body's state of
Even though the heart works harder, blockages still shortchange the needed blood supply to all areas of the body. Kidney disorders, which leave extra fluids, sodium, and toxins in the body, obesity, diabetes, birth control pills, pregnancy, smoking, excess alcohol, stress, and thyroid and adrenal gland problems can also cause and exacerbate a high blood pressure condition. Proper ranges of cholesterol are also important in the prevention of heart attack

Anatomy & Physiology 101 The Peripheral Nervous System It is difficult to decide the importance of one set of senses over another, because consequentially, each of the senses enables the working of another or two of the senses. Seeing, hearing, smelling, feeling, and tasting are all somehow connected to each other; without one of the five, a particular system also becomes lacking in the sense department. That said, because of the importance
