He then took a nice long lick and suck off his hands. Because of that, the judge declared him insane.
A judge cannot declare someone "insane". That has to be done based on a clinical evaluation. The judge can only agree or disagree with the evaluation, and determine that a person is not competent to stand trial based on clinical evidence of insanity.
