Judge finds ex-Texas A&M player incompetent in slaying case
DALLAS -- A former Texas A&M wide receiver has been found mentally incompetent to stand trial in the slaying of a man on a Dallas jogging trail.
Thomas Johnson was found incompetent by a Dallas County magistrate judge at a hearing Monday. His attorney, Jennifer Balido, tells The Dallas Morning News that Johnson will be sent to a state hospital for treatment and evaluation.
Balido said it's likely Johnson will eventually "regain competency."
Police have said Johnson has admitted to killing a jogger in a random act of rage on the White Rock Creek Trail in October.
