VICTOR, Idaho — Jeremy Best has been found competent to stand trial for the alleged murder of his wife, her unborn baby, and their 10-month-old son.
According to court documents, District Judge Dane Watkins Jr. received the results of the competency evaluation ordered for Best and he has been found "fit to proceed."
A district court arraignment has been scheduled for Best via Zoom on Jan. 3 at 1 p.m.
Best was placed on a conservatorship on Dec. 12 and it is unclear if that is still in place.
Best, 48, was indicted by a grand jury in Teton County on three counts of murder in the first degree and three enhancements for the use of a firearm or other deadly weapon during the commission of a crime. He is accused of killing his wife, Kali Randall, her unborn baby, and their 10-month-old son, Zeke Best.
If convicted, he could face the death penalty.
