Oklahoma Homecoming Crash Suspect Adacia Chambers Allowed 'Psychological Evaluation'

Oklahoma state homecoming crash suspect Adacia Chambers will be undergoing a "psychological evaluation before arraignment", ruled the judge on Monday afternoon, granting a request by defense lawyers, says HNGN.

Chambers appeared only through a video link. She has yet to enter a plea, but is currently under a $1 million bond. On Nov 13, she will appear in court when charges against her will be filed.

On Monday, prosecutors charged her with having driven "purposely" around a barricade, shooting past a red light and over a police motorcycle, before she careened into a group of people during a "homecoming parade" at Oklahoma State University on Saturday morning.

"The evidence suggests this was an intentional act, not an accident," Laura Thomas, the district attorney for Payne County said, according to the Associated Press. Thomas added that Chambers' actions established "a depraved mind and indifference to human life."

Chambers killed four people, among them a two-year-old. Many others were injured.

Cops suspected that she was drunk, but her lawyer denied that she was in a "drunken stupor."

"In my opinion, Ms. Chambers suffers from a mental illness," Attorney Tony Coleman said.
