GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – Another competency exam will be performed on the suspect in a double homicide.
Jacob Cayer is accused of killing his ex-girlfriend, Sabrina Teague, and her mother, Heesun “Sunny” Teague, and injuring another man at a Hobart home on June 7th.
Cayer had been declared mentally unfit to stand trial, placing the case on hold.
However, a recent evaulation by a state-hired psychistrist deemed him competent.
Cayer’s attorneys are challening that finding, and Tuesday Judge Timothy Hinkfuss ordered that a defense-hired psychiatrist will evaulate Cayer.
A hearing is set for March 30 to review the findings.
At issue is if Cayer is able to understand the proceedings against him and assist in his own defense.
It does not address his competency at the time of the crime; that issue could be raised at trial.
If convicted, Cayer could spend life in prison.
