A judge ruled Friday that a man charged with killing 10 people at a Colorado supermarket earlier this year is mentally incompetent to stand trial and ordered him to be treated at the state mental hospital to see if he can be made well enough to face prosecution.
Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa, 22, is accused of opening fire at a busy King Soopers in the college town of Boulder in March, killing a police officer, shoppers and several store employees.
Four doctors have now determined Alissa is not mentally competent to participate in court proceedings, and he has “deteriorated” over the past couple of months while in jail, District Attorney Michael Dougherty said. Given the consensus, Dougherty requested that Judge Ingrid Bakke send Alissa to the state mental hospital in hopes that medication and treatment will enable him to become competent under the law.
Dougherty did not disclose why the experts determined Alissa is not competent, and the report explaining the evaluation's finding is not available to the public.
The ruling halts virtually all proceedings in the case indefinitely. Prosecutors will get monthly updates from the hospital on his condition.
Robert Olds, whose niece Rikki Olds, the supermarket's front-end manager, was killed in the shooting, said he was frustrated by the latest delay, which puts off the day when his family can really begin to grieve by seeing Alissa put on trial. However, he also tries not to become too upset by the justice system's slow pace, to avoid being “revictimized” by Alissa, he said.
Still, Olds noted Alissa seemed competent at his last court hearing when he answered the judge's questions.
“He’s incompetent to stand trial, but on the day he did all of this he was pretty dang competent in his actions and everything else,” Olds said.

No murderer is “incompetent for trial”, if he/she premeditates the murder of others.

I barely remember this, which shows how quickly the media can memory-hole a crime perpetrated by someone in a “marginalized community.”
