HOUSTON — The man accused of fatally shooting a suburban Houston officer was twice committed to mental health facilities in the last five years and his attorney said Tuesday the man will undergo a psychological evaluation.
Shannon J. Miles remained jailed without bond on a capital murder charge in the death of Harris County Sheriff’s Deputy Darren Goforth. Prosecutors allege Miles shot Goforth 15 times after the 47-year-old deputy had filled up his patrol car at a suburban Houston gas station. The motive remains unknown.
