Mental Disorder

Mr. Jekyll should not be guilty because he has a multiple personality disorder that won’t let him have control of his acts. This disease it is a mental disturbance in wich the personality becomeassociated intro two or more distinct parts each of which becomes dominant and contro behavior from time to time to the exclusion of the other parts.

Finally in 1980 the america psychiatric association officiallyrecognized multile personality disorder as a genuine emotional illness, but in the time of Jekyll this treatment wont exist and neather they don’t know about this disease like we already know.
Todaythis people have their own rights in the courts. And know instead of punish them by sending them to jail they help them to get over with their disease.

If they would knoe this on those year I shure that they would do the same thing and they would try to help Mr. Jekyll.
