King Soopers shooter deemed competent for trial after delay

TL;DR Summary
Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa, the suspect in the Boulder King Soopers shooting that killed 10 people, including a police officer, has been found competent to stand trial. Previously, he was deemed incompetent due to his limited ability to communicate and his passive approach to his defense. Prosecutors accused him of feigning his condition, and the Colorado Department of Human Services has now determined that he does not have a mental or developmental disability that would prevent him from working with his lawyer. The court has been asked to make a judicial finding and begin the trial process.
