Texas Mother Found Competent For Trial In Infant Son’s Murder
A jail psychiatrist has determined that a Texas woman accused of killing and mutilating her infant son is competent to stand trial.
Font Size:

SAN ANTONIO (September 24, 2009)--The attorney for a Texas woman who’s accused of killing and mutilating her 3-week-old son says a jail psychiatrist has deemed her competent to stand trial.

Ed Camara said Thursday that a judge will consider the recommendation at a competency hearing in November for Otty Sanchez, who’s charged with capital murder.

Police say Sanchez cannibalized parts of her infant during the attack in July at her home.

An autopsy report shows that Scott Wesley Buccholz-Sanchez was nearly decapitated and was missing several body parts and organs.

Sanchez remains in the Bexar County Jail.

Her bond is set at $1 million.

Camara told The Associated Press that Sanchez will likely plead not guilty by reason of mental illness.

This should be a very interesting Trial. If convicted, I may/may not believe it when I see it or read it.
