State psychologist finds Zoe Welsh murder suspect unfit for trial

Original: State psychologist finds Zoe Welsh murder suspect incapable of proceeding to trial

A state psychologist has determined that the suspect accused of murdering Zoe Welsh is incapable of proceeding to trial. The finding means competency proceedings will now decide whether the defendant can be restored to stand trial, delaying the criminal case in the killing of Welsh, a Raleigh teacher whose death drew wide attention.

Why now: The competency ruling delays a high-profile murder case that has drawn strong public attention.
