Sleepwalking. Is It Real?

Description

Some people eat in their sleep. Some lash out at their spouses. But is it possible for normal people to commit complex crimes - even murder - while they're sleepwalking? With only a dead victim and a zoned-out sleepwalker at the scene of the crime, it's hard to know for sure. Will extensive sleep tests performed on accused murderers reveal the shocking truth - that it is possible to unknowingly kill someone in your sleep? If science says yes, what does the law say? Is sleepwalking a legitimate defense for murder? Find out how this sleep phenomenon manifests itself in the lives of everyday citizens - and how it stands up against the legal system.
