So did he plead not guilty by reason of insanity?

#ZachHolly has not lifted his head throughout the entire video, he has been looking down reading a transcript. #HollyTrial

"I'm not sick & twisted in the head like that, I can't imagine" #ZachHolly response to why a person would do 'this' to Jersey Bridgeman
 
Then, as his lawyer admits he accepts responsibility, why is this in trial???

The only thing I can think is that he plead Not Guilty with his original lawyers. His new lawyers may have tried to do a plea-bargain that was not accepted by the State. The State is going for the death penalty and I am sure any plea-bargain would include the defense wanting the death penalty off the table...

Although, I am not a professional so that is only my opinion.
 
Maybe it's all about the mitigation/penalty phase then, with his childhood history, etc.
