I don't know if "chose" is quite the right word. He was clearly not insane in the sense that his brain wasn't functioning as it was designed to, but his compulsions were clearly out of his control to an extent. I mean, if you're on the run and trying to avoid drawing the attention of police, you don't attack a Sorority house, then move on to a private home, then try to pick up a kid, all in one night (or at least a whatever very short time period it was). He clearly wasn't in control of his impulses at that point, whether or not he had any desire to be.
