In any prosecution for an offense it is a defense that, as a result of intoxication which is not voluntary, the actor at the time of the
conduct lacked substantial capacity to appreciate the wrongfulness of the conduct or to perform a material element of the offense, or
lacked sufficient willpower to choose whether the person would do the act or refrain from doing it.
