Killing Crazy is a short play by Brian Bornstein about Louis Righetti, a prisoner on death row whose competency to be executed is in question due to possible mental illness. Angels Theatre Company is presenting a staged reading of Killing Crazy to catalyze discussion about the state’s stance on capital punishment as well as the ethics of killing someone who may not be of sound mind. Playwright Brian Bornstein is Director of UNL’s Law-Psychology Program.
