But Judge James H. Daniel rules that this is false.

Kimberly Kastler now has to watch the proceedings on a video feed from jail.

And because of all that seemingly unhinged behavior, she's declared mentally incompetent to stand trial.

We had a hearing to determine whether she was mentally competent to proceed to a trial.

And we presented evidence to show that she was delusional, she was mentally ill.

Kimberly Kessler had a lot of strange tendencies, and prosecutors did not believe it.

They felt that she was putting on an act in order to avoid having to face the charges against her.

As time goes by, more hearings are held to make a determination as to whether Kimberly Kessler is competent to stand trial.

At these hearings for competency, there was a psychiatrist who testified as to whether or not Kimberly Kessler could be a part of her defense and ultimately be competent to stand trial.

Finally, after three long years, Jolene Cummings' family is in the courtroom about to get their chance at justice.

The trial was very much anticipated.

Just as this trial begins, it's almost immediate that Kimberly Kessler starts having her typical outbursts in the courtroom.

The judge decides to excuse Kimberly Kessler from the proceedings, and now there's the opportunity for the state to actually get started with their opening statement.

Prosecutors are about to present the heart of what they insist is a pre-planned murder case, video of a shopping trip, and what Kessler is buying will chill you to the bone.

The prosecution begins laying out their case, and it relies heavily on circumstantial evidence and surveillance video.

Prosecutors argue that after spending hours cleaning the bloody crime scene, Kimberly Kessler, known at the time as Jennifer Seibert, went to Walmart to buy a set of items that paint a truly macabre picture.

There is an overhead shot of Jennifer Seibert in this dark shirt, her hair pulled up into this bun.

And what's most interesting is that you can see specifically what Jennifer Seibert is scanning.

She's scanning a large bottle of ammonia.

She's scanning rubber gloves.
