So Harvey is in Jail and has not even started his evaluation... this will take a while...
------------
OPELIKA, Ala. (AP) — Officials say psychiatric testing like the evaluations planned for a University of Alabama fan charged with poisoning Auburn University's landmark oak trees can last from a few hours to years.
Harvey Updyke surrendered for psychiatric testing last week in Opelika, and he remained in the Lee County jail Tuesday morning.
The state mental health agency says tests most often are conducted in county jails, where the process can last from hours to a few days.
The department says evaluations can last from a month to years if a person is taken to a state mental facility for screening.
The agency declined comment on Updyke specificially, citing confidentiality rules.

Lee County court should've accepted his plea bargain instead of going on this witch-hunt and trying to throw the book at him. Now, nothing substantial is ever going to happen. It's going to move at a snail's pace and be a never-ending clusterfrick until he dies.

Well, it's that, and his bail in Lee County was revoked.

I cannot believe that the judicial system will waste time and money on this guy. This sort of thing happens in Auburn all the time with its rampant crime. It is not like Harvey laid his testicles against a tree. They are going after Harvey because Auburn is butthurt over the last game they played against Alabama. Ok, took care of it for you Bama fans, got all the stupid arse answers and remarks out the way. Now, possibly this thread has a chance to be good discussion on the issue.

I'm okay with him rotting away in a looney bin for the rest of his pathetic life...quite funny actually.

As does any legal matter.. a simple felony takes a year sometimes longer to be resolved.

Why do I have a feeling 90% of his answers to the questions in the psych eval were "Roll Tide"

I am indifferent to the situation and his punishment. However, breaking news reports that Updyke and Downing are both facing new charges of attempted escape. Evidentally they were set up by angry Au fans and lured them into the plot by their crafty, but old school, sawblade in the cake trick.
