A D.C. judge is hearing testimony this week over whether Albrecht Muth, accused of killing his 91-year-old wife Viola Drath last year, is competent to stand trial. Georgetown Patch has a good write-up of the last two days of testimony, where defense lawyers have claimed that Muth is too delusional to be able to properly have understood that what he was doing was wrong and prosecutors who claim that he isn’t delusional, but rather a master con-man.

This excerpt caught our eye, though, and may be something of a warning for budding criminals on the sorts of things you don’t want to search for on your computer without remembering to clear the history, cookies and cache afterwards:

In one interesting revelation, Kirschner said that on the night of Drath’s death there is a Google search history from Muth’s computer that includes the terms “Mexican Extradition” and “Crossing the Canadian border.”

Muth must have been bummed to learn that both Mexico and Canada have extradition treaties with the U.S.
