EVERETT, Wash. (AP) — A Washington state man accused of killing a 15-year-old girl in 1993 will undergo a mental health evaluation after he failed to cooperate in two court hearings.

Alan Edward Dean refused to identify himself during his arraignment on Monday in which he was charged with the first-degree murder of Melissa Lee.

After a follow-up hearing yielded similar results, the judge and prosecutor agreed that a competency hearing should be held.

The 62-year-old man was arrested earlier this year. A public defender has been assigned to represent Dean, who has said he does not wish to work with the attorney.
