He was found incompetent to stand trial. That trial was over May 25th sir.

Three hots and a cot plus some mind expanding drugs for the party.

That is correct, but there will be another hearing on 21 Sep 11 to see if, after going treatment, he remains incompetent. If he responds to treatment, he may still go on trial.

Gabrielle Giffords released from hospital

The US congresswoman shot in the head in January has been released from hospital to begin outpatient treatment after improvements in her condition.

Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona is to move to the Texas home of her husband, astronaut Mark Kelly.

Six died and 13 were injured in the shooting at Ms Giffords' constituent event in Tucson, Arizona.

The man accused of shooting Ms Giffords and killing six others has been found mentally unfit to stand trial.

I see. This I did not know. I thought perhaps once noted as a loon by the courts you are loon status from then on. I believe he will still be found as incompetent.

There are clear signs, that he will maintain the "status" at any rate until further notice.
