AI Summary
This bill modifies the list of exceptions for who is capable of committing crimes in Oklahoma, specifically by removing the phrase "including persons temporarily or partially deprived of reason" from the section concerning mentally ill persons and those of unsound mind. This means that individuals who are temporarily or partially lacking reason will no longer be automatically exempt from criminal liability if they can prove they were incapable of knowing the wrongfulness of their actions at the time of the offense. The bill also specifies an effective date of November 1, 2026.
