A man who attacked staffers in the district office of U.S. Representative Gerry Connolly in Northern Virginia with a baseball bat has been found not guilty by reason of insanity. The incident, which occurred last year, involved the man bursting into the congressional office and assaulting employees. During the court proceedings, the judge accepted the insanity plea, and the defense attorney argued that the man was insane at the time of the attack.
