Your question misses the point. Even if you have a provably correct explanation for why you did something, that does not mean you should be excused for it. There are sociobiological explanations for why people lie, rape, murder, and steal (I presume you have something less dramatic in mind), but that doesn't mean a court should let anyone get away with such conduct.
