The 22-year-old man accused of gunning down four people in the alley behind a home in Tacoma鈥檚 Salishan neighborhood last year was found by a Pierce County judge Thursday to be competent to stand trial.
Superior Court Judge James Orlando found Maleke Pate capable of understanding the nature of the proceedings against him, able to assist in his own defense.
Pate underwent three evaluations to determine his mental competency and a 90-day stay at Western State Hospital to improve his psychiatric condition.
Pate is charged with four counts of aggravated first-degree murder for the Oct. 21 killings of Maria Nunez, 42; her son, Emery Iese, 19; Nunez鈥檚 brother, Raymond Williams, 22; and Williams鈥 girlfriend, Natasha Brincefield, 22. If convicted, Pate could face a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole on each count, according to state law.
Not guilty pleas were entered on his behalf Thursday, and he was ordered jailed without bail.

Documents recovered for the family of a deceased veteran聽
The family of a man whose personal documents were found by the side of the road in Tacoma have come forward to claim the paperwork.

Ceda’s daughter Nina Taira was able to claim the papers after the woman who found them posted photos on social media, family members say they have no idea how the documents ended up on the ground.
