New York Man Accused of Stalking Clerk Childers Ordered for Mental Competency Exam

Pensacola, FL (Newsradio 92.3) -- A New York man accused of stalking Escambia County Clerk of Court Pam Childers and firebombing a car near her home must undergo a mental health examination. 35-year-old Justin Wright is charged with cyberstalking, attempted interstate extortion and use of fire to commit a federal felony. His trial -- which was scheduled to start yesterday, has been canceled pending the competency evaluation. Federal prosecutors say Wright also committed arson on two other vehicles in New York. A note found at the firebombing scene reportedly read "Send the money back or die." Wright pleaded not guilty and remains in custody.
