In my opinion Lennie Small is not guilty of homicide due to insanity pertaining from his lack of cognitive ability‚ which can be determined by the irresistible impulse test. Lennie knew that murder was wrong but could not stop himself. Lennie is a gentle soul and would never harm anyone on purpose.
