314ds agoA judge ruled that Jose Gonzalez is unfit to stand trial
in the killing of EMT Yadira Arroyo Thursday.
Gonzalez is accused of hijacking Arroyo’s ambulance while
she was on the job and then running her over and killing her in 2017.
The victim’s family says that this decision is a setback
in getting justice, which has delayed their healing process.
Arroyo’s aunt told News 12 that she walked out of the courtroom when she heard that Gonzalez
would be sent to a psychiatric hospital. She said the pain
was unbearable that her niece and her family have to wait even longer just for
a trial.
Gonzalez will be held at a psychiatric facility until he
is deemed mentally fit to go to trial.
