Green Bay, WI (WTAQ) – A compentecy exam has been ordered for a man who allegedly stabbed his ex-girlfriend during an argument after the Independence Day fireworks in Green Bay.
The competency exam for Victor Paz-Castellanos will determine if he is mentally competent to assist in his own defense and is able to stand trial. It does not relate to his mental condition at the time of the incident.
The exam was ordered earlier this week. He returns to court March 11 to review the results, according to online court records.
Paz-Castellanos is charged with attempted first-degree intentional homicide for allegedly stabbing his ex-girlfriend July 4 during an argument. He also faces misdemeanor and traffic charges from previous incidents.
Paz-Castellanos is a Honduran citizen who was deported in 2014, but who then returned to the United States. Federal immigration say after this case is concluded, they will pursue deportation again.
