OLATHE, Kan. (AP) — A Kansas judge has ordered a competency hearing for an avowed white supremacist from Missouri who is accused of shooting three people to death at two Jewish sites earlier this year.

Johnson County Judge Thomas Kelly Ryan ordered the evaluation Wednesday for 73-year-old Frazier Glenn Miller, of Aurora, Missouri. A Dec. 18 hearing has been scheduled to discuss the findings.

The move delays a preliminary hearing that was to determine if enough evidence existed for Miller to stand trial. Miller objected to the delay and said it interfered with his right to a speedy trial.

He is charged with capital murder in the April 13 attacks outside the Jewish Community Center of Greater Kansas City and a Jewish retirement home in Overland Park, Kansas.

None of the victims was Jewish.
