http://news.yahoo.com/indiana-adds-rape-murder-cannibalism-charges-louisville-courier-214734805.htmlIndiana man who is facing a possible death penalty on charges that he killed his ex-girlfriend and ate part of her body has now been charged with raping her, an attorney representing the defendant said on Tuesday.
The added charge against Joseph Oberhansley is intended to bolster the prosecution's case for the death penalty, attorney Mike McDaniel said.
Oberhansley, 34, was charged last September in Clark County, Indiana, with breaking into the Jeffersonville home of his ex-girlfriend, Tammy Jo Blanton, murdering her and abusing her corpse by eating parts of it. He has pleaded not guilty.
Jeffersonville is across the Ohio River from Louisville, Kentucky.
McDaniel said Judge Vicki Carmichael approved the charge on Monday at the request of Clark County Prosecutor Jeremy Mull. It was added, McDaniel said, because the other charges were not strong enough to warrant the death penalty.
A trial is scheduled for August 2016, time needed to adequately prepare for a capital case, McDaniel said. His client is currently in solitary confinement and he is concerned about him staying in solitary that long, he said.
Prosecutors would have to prove one aggravating circumstance — such as dismemberment, burglary or rape — for Oberhansley to qualify for a death sentence if he is convicted of murder.
“Ive never seen such bullshit,” Oberhansley complained as Judge Carmichael read the rape statute on Monday. “Excuse my language. They keep falsifying shit.”
Oberhansley argued in court that he was a righteous man, and he said that he was “too handsome” to have raped his 46-year-old former girlfriend.
Time for the psych exam, this guy is clearly delusional.he said that he was “too handsome” to have raped his 46-year-old former girlfriend.
I don't understand why they even need to bother with proving rape, since they already have 2 of the other aggravating circumstancses locked down?Prosecutors would have to prove one aggravating circumstance — such as dismemberment, burglary or rape — for Oberhansley to qualify for a death sentence if he is convicted of murder.
why the fuck would you HAVE a boyfriend who murdered his ex??/Why the fuck would you bail out your BF who murdered his ex?
Good point!why the fuck would you HAVE a boyfriend who murdered his ex??/

Thanks for the info @Krystal !@Momzilla
I think that they are just adding everything that they can to make sure this guy either gets death or never gets out again.
Too handsome to rape...cause attractiveness is the barometer of capability to sexually assault.
Oberhansley has a long criminal history going back to at least 2000 when he was convicted of manslaughter and attempted murder for killing his then-girlfriend Sabrina Elder, 17, and critically wounding his mother, [...]
Just days before the killing, Elder had given birth to Oberhansley's child.
[...]
released on parole in 2012, but in 2013 he was in trouble for allegedly choking out another patron in a bar and resisting arrest. He was naked during the attack.
[...]
months ago, Oberhansley was arrested following erratic driving that sparked a slow-speed police chase. Blanton paid a $1,000 bond to secure his release.
"There are just certain things that went on that are going to be testified by the defense that give a weakness to the case," Parker said.
"This was not an intentional act," said Oberhansley's defense attorney, Ronald Yengich. "All of the stressors involved in Joseph's life at the time led up to this. It is likely that outside of those factors this never would have happened."
Yengich called the plea deal a "fair compromise" and added that the injury Oberhansley sustained from shooting himself in the head has actually made him a calmer person.
"The injury he sustained actually has had a beneficial affect because of the portion of the brain that was injured," Yengich said.
An Indiana man accused of killing his ex-girlfriend and eating parts of her body isn’t mentally competent to stand trial, a judge ruled Wednesday.
Clark County Circuit Court Judge Vicki Carmichael deemed 36-year-old Joseph Oberhansley incompetent after hearing testimony from three doctors who evaluated him.
Carmichael ordered the competency evaluations after defense attorneys Brent Westerfeld and Bart Betteau filed a motion in February saying Oberhansley wasn’t able to participate in his own defense or fully understand the court proceedings.
“He is suspicious, paranoid, uncommunicative, and agitated,” they wrote, saying there is a “complete breakdown” in communication between them and Oberhansley.
The evaluation reports by psychologists and psychiatrists have been filed under seal, reported the Courier-Journal of Louisville, Kentucky, which is across the Ohio River from Jeffersonville.
Clark County prosecutor Jeremy Mull said he intends to bring the case to trial eventually. Oberhansley, who faces murder, rape and abuse of a corpse charges, will undergo “competency restoration” treatments in an effort to try him at a later time.
I've had them, years ago before mad cow was A Thing.cow brains in scrambled eggs
A psychiatrist says an Indiana man accused of killing his ex-girlfriend and eating parts of her body is mentally competent for trial, but his attorneys want to talk to him first.
a psychiatrist at Hospital said in a letter filed with Clark County Circuit Court that Joseph Oberhansley’s competency has been restored since he was committed there last October.
Prosecutors allege Oberhansley broke into the Jeffersonville home of 46-year-old Tammy Jo Blanton in September 2014, and that he raped her, fatally stabbed her and ate parts of her body.

A southern Indiana man accused of killing his ex-girlfriend and eating parts of her body will undergo more mental evaluations to determine whether he's competent to face trial.
Defense attorneys for Joseph Oberhansley say he remains suspicious and paranoid despite a Logansport State Hospital psychiatrist telling the Clark County judge in late July that his competency has been restored since he was committed there last year.
Oberhansley's lawyers say he "continues to express bizarre and irrational beliefs" when meeting with them and defense investigators.
A competency hearing was set Friday for Nov. 16. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.
I don’t care what they do, as long as they ensure he’s locked up forever.https://www.azfamily.com/news/more-...cle_77f00c18-3401-5be2-9078-3e99e3f7ef59.html
I doubt he will be found competent.
