Nunn to get psychiatric evaluation
By Ashlee Clark

Former state Rep. Steve Nunn's attorney and prosecutors agreed Tuesday to ask a Fayette district court judge to order a psychiatric evaluation of Nunn.

Nunn is accused of killing his former fiancée Amanda Ross on Sept. 11 outside her home.

The evaluation's purpose is to determine whether Nunn was criminally responsible for his actions, said Brian Mattone, first assistant county attorney.

He will be evaluated by Comprehensive Care.
