Sanity commission finds alleged East Feliciana serial killer incompetent to stand trial
A judge in East Feliciana ruled Tuesday that alleged serial killer Ryan Sharpe is not competent to stand trial, a decision that will halt criminal proceedings and transfer the 37-year-old from a jail cell to a psychiatric hospital.

Sharpe is accused of killing three men and injuring another in four separate shootings in the Clinton area in East Feliciana and just across the parish line in East Baton Rouge over a four-month span beginning in July 2017. He was charged with first-degree murder in only one of the four shootings: the October 2017 homicide of Brad DeFranceschi, 48, outside his home on the Avondale Scout reservation in Clinton. Sharpe was charged with second-degree murder in the fatal shooting of Tommy Bass, 62, outside his home and with attempted first-degree murder in another shooting that injured Buck Hornsby, both in East Feliciana Parish. In East Baton Rouge Parish, Sharpe has been charged with second-degree murder in the fatal shooting of 66-year-old Carroll Breeden.
SIAP.

But he was competent enough to kill? I'm sorry, I don't see what competence has to do with punishing someone for murder.

This is total horse shite. He was competent enough to get the better of 4 men, killing 3 of them. Just kill him and get it over with.

So you can:
drive a car around
conscientiously look for someone to kill
KILL 3 people in separate events
AND NOT STAND TRIAL

I never quite understood this. Regardless of his mental function, he used a gun to kill people. I don't see why we adopted this attitude that he didn't mean to do it. So now versus just executing the guy, he will spend the rest of his life in a mental hospital paid for by taxpayer.

History has proven most serial killers are some of the smartest people in earth.
I think he tricked them?

No.
A legal finding of criminallly insane is incredibly hard to come by

Competent enough to kill when the whole state was looking for him.

In fairness, they did a pretty good job of finding him as soon as they did.

Sharpe confessed that he was the shooter in each of the incidents. For each shooting, Sharpe described to authorities how he found the victims, drove toward them, watched them get hit by his bullets and then drove home, according to the narrative of his confession.
"Sharpe stated he killed the victims because he was filling five tags ... given to him by the State Police and the Federal Government," the narrative written by the East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office says. After explaining two tags had been used on a deer he killed, Sharpe told authorities the three remaining had "to be used on humans," the report says.
"He concluded by saying the reason he didn't kill Hornsby is because he didn't want to waste a tag," the last line of the narrative says.

A Sanity Commission finding someone incompetent to stand trial doesnt have anything to do with the person's guilt.
It's about if a person understands what's going on in the proceedings so that he can assist his attorney in preparing his defense.
The court generally assigns two doctors to do an evaluation. If the doctors say the person cant assist in his own defense and doesnt understand what's going on, then the judge will usually go with their conclusions.
At that point the person is shipped off to a prison psych facility until they are "rehabilitated" and can then stand trial.
