In Australia, a woman was able to beat a murder charge after her lawyers successfully argued that she had a sleeping disorder. Ilknur Caliskan was accused of stabbing her hubby to death in September of 2023. Prosecutors decided to drop the case, however, after Caliskan was put through a scientific sleep study. There it was discovered that she was suffering from a sleep disorder “and therefore not acting in a conscious and voluntary state.” So, in so many words, you can kill someone in your sleep and get away with it.
