Los Angeles – A judge declared on Thursday that a man is mentally incompetent to be tried for charges of harassment Jennifer Aniston and crashing his car for his main door.
The measure in a mental health court in Los Angeles County occurred after a second psychiatrist examined the defendant, Jimmy Wayne CarwyleAnd he reached the same conclusion as the first: that his mental health would not allow him to respond to the serious crimes of vandalism and harassment of the star of “friends.”
“The Court considers that the defendant is not currently competent to be tried,” Judge Maria Cavalluzzi said. “Criminal procedures will remain suspended.”
Carwyle, 48, from Mississippi, declared himself innocent. He appeared behind Glass in an area of custody of the courtroom and did not speak. It seemed very different from its two previous judicial audiences. His hair and bearded hair had been cut, and wore a bright yellow county jail clothes after appearing before with bare shoulders, wrapped in a blanket robe destined for suicide prevention.
Carwyle had argued that he is competent and exercised his right to a second opinion after an initial incompetence finding last week.
“It is not the result that my client would have preferred,” said the deputy public defender Robert Krauss to the judge.
A conviction for charges, along with an aggravating circumstance of the threat of great bodily damage, could bring up to three years in prison for Carwyle. The incompetence finding has no established end date, but it is temporary, and the standard criminal process could be resumed later.
Cavalluzzi ordered more complete mental evaluations to help determine where and how it will be celebrated, and what will be your treatment. The judge will receive a report on the results at a hearing on June 26, where Aniston or his lawyer may share their perspective on the case.
Aniston’s lawyer, Blair Berk, was watching Thursday, but did not speak. Berk and the attached district prosecutor who managed the case refused to comment outside the court.
Prosecutors claim that Carwyle had been harassing Aniston with an avalanche of voice messages, email and social media messages for two years before promoting his Crysler PT Cruiser through the door of his house in the rich neighborhood of Bel Air in Los Angeles on May 5, causing important damage. A security guard stopped him in his entrance way until the police arrived. The authorities said Aniston was at home At that time, but did not come into contact, and nobody was injured.
