Sounds like a carefully planned insanity defense.
It also sounds like he wanted to be caught, hence his little drama in Denny's.

Look what Minnesotta wants to do: April 28-2005

"The Minnesota House has overwhelmingly passed a wide-ranging public safety bill that would place tough new sanctions on sex offenders. The bill contains longer prison sentences, the possibility of castration for pedophiles and license plates that would identify sexual predators.

St. Paul, Minn. — Before the House voted 123-to-10 for the bill, much of the seven-hour debate focused on two proposals by first-term Republican Tom Emmer of Delano. One would allow judges to order chemical castration of sex offenders in some cases where the victim is younger than 13. Chemical castration involves taking drugs that suppress sex drive. Emmer argued that some pedophiles can't stop themselves from hurting children.

"This is not punishment. This is rehabilitation. We're trying to help those who can't help themselves," Emmer said.

Emmer's proposal would also allow offenders to voluntarily seek surgical castration. The House voted 80-to-54 for Emmer's amendment, and by a similar margin for his proposal to identify the most dangerous level three sex offenders with special license plates and markings on their drivers' licenses".

It's a start, good people...

Extremely possible. He's highly intelligent like all successful sociopaths. As for wanting to be caught, some of the entries on his web log talk about "when I'm gone, or turn myself in".
