Murder defendant cuts, smears self with feces before hearing!!

A man in a holding cell awaiting a judge's ruling in his competency hearing Friday cut his arm with a razor and smeared his own feces on himself, according to officials.

Brian K. Hubbard, 25, has been charged with capital first-degree murder with a firearm, attempted first-degree murder with a firearm and home invasion robbery while armed.

Hubbard is the last of five co-defendants awaiting trial in connection to an April 2006 home invasion in Marion Oaks that left 17-year-old Kindrell Stocker dead and another man, Eddie Hamilton, wounded.

Friday's hearing was to determine whether or not Hubbard is competent to stand trial. The State Attorney's Office planned to introduce the conclusions of two doctors who had examined the defendant for mental competency.

Prosecutor Rock Hooker and Hubbard's appointed defense attorney, J. Edwin Mills of Orlando, were sitting in the courtroom, awaiting the start of the hearing, when a bailiff came in to announce the turn of events.

Circuit Judge Willard Pope had not yet taken the bench.

Sheriff's officials say when they went to get Hubbard from a holding cell, he was sitting on the floor holding a broken piece of razor blade from a disposable shaver. Authorities say he had a cut on his arm.

Hubbard handed the razor blade to a deputy.

Officials say there was feces on the wall and floor, and that some of fecal matter was on his face. Deputies say Hubbard was the only one in the holding area at the time.

Hubbard told them the reason he cut himself was because he heard voices in his head.
