A motion has been filed for a competency evaluation by the attorney of a 73-year-old Atchison man accused of aggravated indecent liberties with a child.
Norman Longbrake will have a hearing on the motion on June 18th.
Defense attorney Rex Lane cited the reasoning behind the motion was that he believes Longbrake may be suffering from dementia or Alzheimer’s-related symptoms.
Longbrake is accused of allegedly engaging in unlawful sexual conduct with a nine year old girl in January of this year.
He pled not guilty to the charge in April and was scheduled to go to jury trial on June 26th.
Longbrake remains in jail on 200 thousand dollars bond.
If convicted, since the alleged victim is under 14, in Kansas, it qualifies under terms of Jessica’s Law, which carries a mandatory life sentence.
