A judge ordered a mental competency eval for Jack LaSota, accused in six deaths, after her attorney claimed she's too impaired to stand trial.
A federal judge has ordered a mental competency evaluation for Jack LaSota, the self-identified leader of the Zizians, a group linked to six deaths since 2022, after her attorney argued she may be too mentally impaired to stand trial on a federal gun charge.
LaSota, a transgender woman, faces federal and state charges following her arrest in February 2025 in Maryland, where she and two others were found living in box trucks.
Her legal team cited confusion during court proceedings, irrational statements, and a failure to grasp legal concepts, including conflating her status as a fugitive with her gender identity.
Prosecutors say police had probable cause to arrest them and conducted a lawful protective sweep due to safety concerns, while defense attorneys claim the search violated her Fourth Amendment rights.
The competency review may delay her June state trial.
