Whereas voluntary intoxication may, in limited circumstances, prevent a defendant from forming the specific intent required for certain crimes, involuntary intoxication may be a complete defense to a variety of charges. ... otherwise leaves the defendant lacking the culpable state of mind required for a conviction.
