The mental examination results come from the third doctor to evaluate Bigsby’s mental competency. One of the previous doctors who evaluated Bigsby, hired by the defense, was not on the commissioner’s list of appointed physicians.
Bigsby’s lawyers argued that the other doctor, who found that he was fit to stand trial, had reported false information. His lawyers cited an instance when the doctor provided inaccurate information about where he was raised.

Bigsby will be there for two months before reassessment. He is scheduled to appear in court on June 14 at 9 a.m.

Also in court Friday, the judge discussed a motion filed by Bigsby’s defense team to drop the charges. They based their motion on evidence obtained by the Commonwealth, which the defense claims wasn’t submitted to defense for months.
The evidence is a written statement Bigsby wrote while in jail. Bigsby’s defense team said the Commonwealth got a copy of that letter on August 3, but did not share it with the defense team until November.

Matheny-Willard’s motion to dismiss is based on the discovery of a letter Bigsby wrote in jail. Matheny-Willard would not divulge the contents of the letter, but said it “changes the course” of Bigsby’s trial and shows his deteriorating mental health.
On Friday, 10 On Your Side investigative reporter Julie Millet asked Matheny-Willard directly if the letter was a suicide note or confession, and the attorney said no. On Saturday morning, Matheny-Willard sent a text to several reporters, including Millet, changing her initial statement. She said, “Because the statement is verifiability untrue, nonsensical, and bizarre, I do not consider it to be either one.”

Zwermer concluded that Bigsby understands the roles of the judge, jury, and prosecution, but doesn’t have a “rational appreciation for his legal circumstances” or the ability to help his defense team, court records show.
Zwermer highlighted two instances that led him to believe Bigsby doesn’t understand the seriousness of the charges against him. When the doctor asked Bigsby about the 30 charges he’s facing, he said he was arrested for “buying too many groceries” and that he “didn’t take the kids when they were asleep.”
[...]
Zwermer wrote that Bigsby’s own biographical information was full of inaccuracies, including how many children he has and their names. Bigsby denied knowing the names of the four sons he’s charged with abusing and neglecting.
[...]
Bigsby’s been placed on suicide watch at least twice while incarcerated at the HRRJ. Once he was discovered hoarding medication in his cell, and another time he told a corrections officer he intended to hang himself. Both times, Bigsby denied having taken the action or issuing the threat, court records state.

Bigsby also complained to a mental health professional that he heard voices in his head telling him to kill himself. He also told jail medical staff that there was a machine implanted in his head and asked for surgery to remove it, according to court records.

The main reason is that the groups know the Bigsby family has ties in the Maryland area near Washington D.C. They want to put up flyers like this one to let family members know Codi is not forgotten.
“We are going because we are letting the residents of Maryland know this child is still missing,” said Nancy Strickland with “We are Codi’s Voice.”
We sat down with both leaders of the groups traveling to Maryland on Monday.
“The awareness needs to be brought to them as well that this baby is missing from Hampton,” Klalil Cribb told 10 On Your Side. He heads “United We Stand of Hampton Roads.”
They believe people are forgetting Codi Bigsby.
[...]
Some would believe this trip is a waste of time. Not to them.
“Absolutely not,” Strickland said. “This is not a waste of time. What does it hurt to search, exactly? What does it hurt? We need to keep his name out there.”
They make the trip knowing that the Hampton Commonwealth’s Attorney and the former Hampton Police Chief, Mark Talbot say that Codi is presumed dead.
[...]
They vow to keep remembering Codi.
“Codi is not going to be forgotten,” Strickland said. “I’ve said from the start, ‘We are Codi strong.’ We will never let Codi’s name die. We are Codi’s voice.”

We watched them leave, these two determined goodwill ambassadors.
They stopped at a rest area to hang a flyer.
They went to a Metro stop in Capitol Heights to spread the word, putting flyers under windshield wipers for Metro riders to see upon their return. The Bigsby family has members living around Capitol Heights.
And the final stop is the White House. Strickland took video of Cribb taping up a flyer on a park bench.
Strickland can be heard on tape.
“Hey everybody this is Nancy Strickland of We are Codi’s Voice, and here is Klalil Cribb of United We Stand of Hampton Roads and we have made it to the White House to post the poster right outside the White House. We hope we can bring some type of awareness in D.C.”

But based on a statement Bigsby made while locked up on a host of child neglect and abuse charges, Hampton police and the FBI searched an outdoor area in Maryland, near Washington, in the summer of 2022, a law enforcement source said.
Though that didn’t turn up any leads on Codi’s whereabouts — and the boy’s body wasn’t found — Bigsby’s jailhouse statement is still being discussed in his case.
In March, one of Bigsby’s attorneys, Amina Matheny-Willard, wrote in a motion to toss the case that prosecutors — through the regional jail correctional officer — “obtained a statement” from Bigsby last August while he was locked up. What exactly Bigsby said in the statement remains a mystery.

Matheny-Willard contended that prosecutors slow-walked providing the jailhouse statement to Bigsby’s defense lawyers, saying it took more than three months to turn over. But Hampton Commonwealth’s Attorney Anton Bell said it didn’t need to be shared earlier because it involved the investigation into Codi rather than the other pending charges.
It wasn’t immediately clear Friday whether that obtained statement was part of the basis for this week’s new charges.
