The man charged in the random attack of a woman in a Seattle light rail station has been awarded $250 a day after the state was unable to provide court-ordered mental health treatment.
Alexander Jay was ordered to receive “competency restoration” services on April 15, after he was found incompetent to stand trial.
Jay was initially considered for treatment. However, the department determined that his admission to a facility was not appropriate due to the violent nature of the case. As a result, the defense argued to dismiss the case, saying Jay’s due process rights were being violated because of the state’s delay to in providing competency restoration treatment.
According to court documents, the court found that Jay’s due process rights were violated, but his motion to dismiss the case was denied.
