@worm, I do believe you're right.
Cape Cod man pleads not guilty in Appalachian Trail hiker's death | Boston.com
"Jordan will be committed indefinitely to a psychiatric facility within the Bureau of Prisons. Jordan waived his right to trial by jury and an additional evaluation. Judge James Jones accepted the plea at the federal courthouse in Abingdon.
Jordan has a history of mental illness and was originally found incompetent to stand trial until a judge reversed that ruling.
Jordan offered a brief, prepared apology in court. His attorney added that his client was “deeply remorseful for the profound sorrow he has caused. He regrets that his lifelong battle with mental illness ultimately resulted in this trauma and loss for innocent hikers and their families."
