Former Copperas Cove resident Omar Gonzalez appeared in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia Wednesday, at which time the court learned the results of a court-ordered psychiatric evaluation. “At today’s status hearing, the court accepted the psychiatric report’s conclusion of competence, meaning that Mr. Gonzalez is able to go forward with proceedings,” said Bill Miller, a Public Information Officer with the U.S. Attorney’s office. “The defendant was arraigned on the superseding indictment. The case was adjourned to January 13, 2015 at 11:30 a.m. for another status hearing.”
