Attorney: Jail says mom competent for trial

SAN ANTONIO, TX Ed Camara said Thursday that a judge will consider that recommendation at a November competency hearing for Otty Sanchez. She's charged with capital murder, and police say Sanchez cannibalized parts of her infant during a July attack at her home.

An autopsy report for Scott Wesley Buccholz-Sanchez shows the baby was nearly decapitated and missing several body parts and organs.

Sanchez remains in a Bexar County jail on $1 million bond. Camara tells The Associated Press that Sanchez will likely plead not guilty by reason of mental illness.
