Update on Craig Cobb and Court

Posted on the 11 December 2013 by Doggone
Looks like Craig Cobb is not cooperative with his appointed attorneys.  This is surprising, given that he has asserted in the past that he was going to represent himself; apparently he changed his mind.  Those attorneys who are appointed to defend him have quit.  His new court date is January 13th.  In the interim, he appears to be remaining in custody in the nearest mental hospital, which seems appropriate, given his nutso hateful beliefs.
From WDAY, Fargo:

Craig Cobb's court hearing delayed


BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A court hearing for a white supremacist who allegedly terrorized residents of a small North Dakota town he's trying to turn into an Aryan enclave has been rescheduled.
Court documents show that Craig Cobb's preliminary hearing set for Monday has been rescheduled to Jan. 13 because his court-appointed public defender has withdrawn from the case.
The Bismarck Tribune reports that it is the third time an appointed public defender has asked to withdraw. A new attorney must now be appointed for Cobb.
Cobb is at the state hospital in Jamestown, where he was taken late last month after starving himself in jail in what he said was an effort to seek spiritual enlightenment.
The 62-year-old Cobb and another man are accused of terrorizing residents of Leith with guns Nov. 16.
