(KNZA)--A Sabetha man accused of child sex crimes has been found competent to stand trial.
A judge made the determination during a hearing last week based on an evaluation report from KANZA Mental Health on 20-year-old Gage Greshman.
A motion filed by Greshman’s attorney for the mental evaluation was granted last month, which placed his preliminary hearing on hold.
The preliminary hearing has now been rescheduled for the afternoon of October 17.
Greshman has been charged in Nemaha County District Court with felony counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child, criminal sodomy and indecent liberties with a child.
According to the criminal complaint, it’s alleged that Gresham engaged in sexual intercourse, sodomy and lewd fondling or touching with a 15-year-old child.
He was arrested in May following an investigation by the Sabetha Police Department.
Gresham remains in the Nemaha County Jail, held on a $200,000 bond.
