Judge in Young Slime Life case orders mental evaluation on defendant for competency to stand trial

Jayden Myrick, 22, on trial with 13 other defendants, told Glanville during a hearing this week that he has been studying law and was receiving legal advice from former President Donald Trump, President Joe Biden and U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff.

“I’m not the regular inmate, I be with Joe Biden and Donald Trump and they be talking to me,” Myrick said at one point. “Donald Trump is going to get me out.”
