We checked court records today to see if Admiral stabbing/robbery suspect Jiminson A. Calix-Bodden had been arraigned yet. Instead, we found he had appeared in court two days ago for a hearing in which his lawyer’s motion for a competency evaluation was granted. Calix-Bodden is the 25-year-old arrested after a man walking near California/Stevens was stabbed in a random attack on May 12th; Calix-Bodden was charged with assault with a deadly weapon, as well as with robbery for allegedly accosting a woman nearby to steal her phone. In court this week, Calix-Bodden’s lawyer contended he was not mentally competent to stand trial; Superior Court Judge Brian McDonald granted her motion for a review to determine if that’s true. He also ruled that Calix-Bodden, listed in court documents as a Tukwila resident, should stay in jail in lieu of $250,000 bail, and would be held on electronic home monitoring if he managed to get out on bond. His next hearing is set for June 12th.
