The correct answer is:D. both criminally responsible and competentIn most cases, a defendant is considered both criminally responsible for their actions and competent to stand trial. This means that they are deemed to have the mental capacity to understand the charges against them and participate in their defense, as well as being held accountable for their alleged criminal behavior.
