One is responsible for the acts committed while intoxicated, even if they do not remember them. Otherwisw no one could be convicted of anything done while drunk, including DUI. Depending on the specific incident and the person's history, the judge's decision and sentence can vary.
Diminished mental capacity laws refer to chronic mental illness or impairment.
