Robert Findlay Smith, who is facing a potential death penalty in the killing of three people who were shot at a St. Stephens Episcopal Church dinner in June, is fighting a court-ordered mental evaluation requested by prosecutors.
Circuit Judge Teresa Pulliam, who approved prosecutors’ request for an outpatient mental evaluation the day before, hadn’t ruled on Smith’s motion on Monday. Pulliam’s order said she had received information indicating the man may not be able to help with his defense.
After sitting by himself at the event, Smith pulled out a gun and started shooting without explanation, authorities have said. A longtime church member intervened by hitting the shooter with a chair and restraining him until police arrived, police said.
