OP
I find it hard to believe he didn't realize the potential outcome of shooting someone in the head.
I doubt any civilized country and any competent judge or jury would buy a football game as reason for temporary insanity. Stranger things have happened I guess, but it is a long shot at best.
If the suspected shooter has a serious history of mental illness then an insanity defense would carry some weight. I don't know anything about the man's past, though. Maybe more will come out as time passes.

OP
Another problem I see with an insanity defense is that the article said the suspected shooter was a supporter of the victim's rival team. That shows motive. When there is a clear motive, insanity is much harder to prove.
He was shooting a rival player which leads me to believe he was aware of what he was doing and had criminal intent in doing so.
This may all be moot, since I have no clue how the Iraqi justice system handles insanity defenses.
I think this guy will end up dancing on the end of rope.

It's not that easy, sure it is easy to debate and write blah blah. But there should always be exceptions to deal with idiots like these. I am with human rights and all, but cases like these should always be looked differently. He was killed for a stupid match ffs.
For a retarded reason like this, killing someone because of a football match, tell me, how would you punish this criminal? equally to those who steal? put them next to other criminals? How safe the others will be? tell me, How would you punish Hitler or other war criminals, dictators? By putting them in a nice room, and serving them food for free? Seriously man, easy with that "Intellectual" speech, get real!
