Cedar Rapids, IA (AP) A Cedar Rapids teenager accused of killing his parents will undergo psychiatric exams before legal proceedings against him continue. Court documents filed Monday say District Court Judge Ian Thornhill ordered a competency evaluation for 17-year-old Ethan Alexander Orton. Thornhill said Orton's defense team submitted enough information to support their belief that Orton has a mental illness. Orton is charged as an adult with two counts of first-degree murder in the fatal stabbings of his parents, 41-year-old Misty Scott Slade, and 42-year-old Casey Orton, at their home on Oct. 14. He has pleaded not guilty.
