Judge Stacy Wall said in Common Pleas Court that an examiner at the Western Ohio Forensic Psychiatry Center said Church is incompetent to stand trial, but that the examiner further said Church possibly can be rehabilitated.
With that finding, Wall said Church will be referred to the Northwest Ohio Psychiatric Hospital in Lima for further evaluation and assessment.
Church remains on a recognizance bond with conditions that he has no unsupervised contact with juveniles, does not engage in online video gaming and reports in person to the court services office every week.
