CENTERVILLE, IOWA (AP) -- A judge says a 66-year-old southeast Iowa man accused of killing his wife is incompetent to stand trial.

Jackie Glascock Sr. is charged with first-degree murder in the death of his wife, Doretta Glascock, on July 12, 2009. Authorities found her body at her rural Cincinnati home. Her husband was found nearby with self-inflicted gunshot wounds.

Glascock was charged after he was released from the hospital.

Judge Annette Scieszinski has suspended future proceedings and ordered Glascock committed to the Iowa Medical and Classification Center for psychiatric and medical treatment.
