(KNZA)--A woman accused of killing her estranged husband in Leavenworth has been found competent to stand trial.
The Leavenworth Times reports a preliminary hearing for 51-year-old Barbara Frantz, of Kansas City, Kansas, is now set for January 9th following the judge’s ruling this week.
Frantz is charged with first-degree murder in the death of 54-year-old Gary Frantz.
Leavenworth police say Gary Frantz was shot several times January 27th in a Leavenworth parking lot. Barbara Frantz was arrested hours later in Burlingame, Kansas.
In March, a judge ruled Frantz was not competent to stand trial. At that time, she was remanded to the Larned State Security Hospital for treatment. Following several months of treatment, she was returned to the custody of the Leavenworth County Jail.
