Man Competent To Stand Trial

{Charleston, West Virginia}...Kanawha Circuit Judge Duke Bloom ruled Friday that Charles March is competent to stand trial for killing Kathy Goble of Charleston, who went missing in April 2010. The two worked together at Kelley’s Men’s Shop in Charleston. Police say March confessed in April to strangling Goble, dismembering her body in a bathtub and burying her remains in the yard of his home on Ohio Avenue in Chesapeake. The remains were found in May 2012. March was wheeled into court Friday on a gurney. He also appeared in court in mid-August on a gurney. He tried to commit suicide in August at the South Central Regional Jail by jumping from a second tier of the commons area.
