Jennifer Aniston Stalker Found Incompetent, Seeks Second Opinion
A man named Jimmy Carwyle, who is accused of stalking the actress Jennifer Aniston, was found by a doctor to be unable to understand the court proceedings.
This means he might not be mentally fit to have a trial.
However, he wants a second doctor to check him out to see if they agree.
Carwyle is charged with stalking and also with crashing his car into Jennifer Aniston's gate.
The judge has told him to stay in jail until the second doctor gives their opinion.
If Carwyle is found to still be incompetent, he could be sent to a mental hospital for treatment instead of going to prison for his alleged actions.
Jennifer Aniston was home during the event, but wasn't harmed or in contact with him.
