Psychiatrists say triple killer Walton is psychotic during execution hearing
Roanoke AP psychiatrists Dr. Patricia General and Anand Pandurangi testified Walton, 24, a condemned triple murderer, is psychotic and sometimes believes he is Jesus. They cited laughter during life and death talks, possible teen onset, self-muttering, and a sighting of a man in a suit in his jail cell. Judge Wilson delayed execution to assess intelligence, ruling Walton not mentally retarded under Virginia law. Walton pleaded guilty in 1997 to capital murder and faces the electric chair.
