DENVER — A federal prosecutor urged a judge on Thursday to order that a man charged with killing three people at a Colorado Planned Parenthood clinic in 2015 be forcibly given anti-psychotic medication so his delusions could be quieted at least enough for him to finally be put on trial for the attack.
She argued a prison psychologist and psychiatrist who Dear at a U.S. Bureau of Prisons hospital in Springfield, Missouri, reported that 70% of their prisoners treated with the drugs have become competent, meeting the requirement that the drugs only be forcibly given if there is a substantial likelihood of success.
Public defender Natalie Stricklin told U.S. District Judge Robert Blackburn that the government’s proposal to treat a man who believes the FBI has been following him for around 30 years and his defense team is working with them is “overly optimistic” and generalized. Dear has previously declared himself a “warrior for the babies” and also expressed pride in the “success” of his attack on the clinic during one of many outbursts during the first day of a three-day hearing in federal court this week on whether he should be forcibly medicated. Blackburn later warned him to remain quiet or he would be removed from court.
