Racist Kansas City Serial Killer Suspect Trial Confronts More Delays

The wait for justice continues as a suspected killer evades his trial by refusing to cooperate with state mental health officials.

Here's more about the situation:

At a status hearing Friday, the judge reiterated concerns Scott had not been taking his medications properly to manage his mental health.

Scott was committed July 29 to the Missouri Department of Mental Health.

Much to the dismay of the prosecution and his defense attorneys, Scott remains in the Jackson County Adult Detention Center instead of being treated at mental health hospital.

Prosecutors and defense attorneys said they feel the mental health hospital in Fulton, Missouri, would be the best place for him.

They expressed disappointment the Missouri Department of Mental Health has not done any evaluation on him.

A Missouri Department of Mental Health attorney did not attend Friday's hearing.

The judge in the case said he felt his hands were tied to do anything else.
