Man accused of beating mother to death with broomstick handle found incompetent to stand trial
A review hearing will take place in 90 days to as he "is likely to regain competency with treatment," the press release said.
The case involves homicide-murder second degree and assault with intent to murder charges that are pending against Armando Jourdain Streeter, 46, of St. Clair Shores. Both charges carry a life sentence. He and his 76-year-old mother lived in the same home; and authorities have accused him of physically beating her to death with a broken broomstick handle on April 5.
"Our office will continue to monitor Mr. Streeter's status closely and will resume prosecution when he is found competent to proceed. This decision does not affect the charges brought or the seriousness of the alleged offenses," Macomb County Prosecutor Peter J. Lucido said in his statement.
The competency hearing took place Tuesday in St. Clair Shores 40th District Court before Judge Mark Fratarcangeli.
Streeter is being held without bond while these proceedings take place.

Fetterman cheers ICE arrests of illegal alien child sex offenders, Luna calls for death penalty
Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., expressed support for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's apprehension of illegal alien child sex offenders, while Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., advocated for the individuals to face the death penalty. ICE noted in a Monday press release that it "arrested 214 illegal aliens for immigration offenses in the Houston area in the past six months who have been charged or convicted of a sex offense involving a minor." "I don't support or agree with all of ICE's tactics or actions. I do fully support moves like these. This makes our nation more secure and all our children safer," Fetterman said in a post on X. Responding to the news about the ICE arrests, Luna said in a post on X, "Skip deportation. Go directly to the death penalty. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200." According to the ICE press release, one of the individuals arrested was "Jose Guadalupe Meza, a 40-year-old, four-time deported criminal alien from Mexico who was arrested June 24 and has been convicted of theft and sexual assault of a child. ICE removed Guadalupe Meza to Mexico June 25." The news comes amid the Trump administration's crackdown on border and immigration enforcement. Fetterman has previously expressed support for ICE's work, describing any calls for the abolition of the agency as "inappropriate" as well as "outrageous." "Bringing together the resources and expertise of the entire federal law enforcement community to confront the overwhelming surge of illegal immigration that we saw over the past four years has resulted in the arrest and removal of historic numbers of violent criminal aliens, transnational gang members and child sex offenders," ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Houston acting field office director Paul McBride noted, according to the press release.
