        I didn’t know until just now either. I actually assumed this was from that Making a Murderer documentary.

      Do you think people use it because they don’t know it’s origin?

        I don’t know how it is in the USA but here pleading insanity is not a way to “get out of your responsibility”, it can actually be a risky move because you are at risk of being imprisoned for the rest of your life. While a normal life sentence normally isn’t a life sentence.
