Yes: cleared to stand trial.
But psych assessments are not routine: if one was ordered, there was a reason to suspect he had mental health issues.
In all likelihood, he did have such issues, they just weren't enough to prevent him from instructing counsel or raising a NCRMD defence.
I'm sure we'll get more clarity over the next week.
