Elizabeth Siders Deemed Competent to Face Trial

Her lawyer confirmed the pregnancy as a judge ruled she can stand trial on child-endangerment charges in the Ohio family abuse case.

  • On Monday, Judge Laina Fetherolf Rogers ruled Elizabeth Siders competent to stand trial for child endangerment, and attorney Thomas Stolly confirmed that Siders is pregnant.
  • Police discovered Siders' 16 children living in a 12-by-12 room on the 180 block of Ohmer Street in Hamden, enduring what State Attorney General Andy Wilson called 'unimaginable conditions.'
  • Arguing the 90-minute Zoom assessment was insufficient, attorney Stolly is seeking a second psychiatric evaluation to determine if an insanity plea is viable for Siders.
  • In a separate hearing on Monday, Judge Rogers determined that Siders' mother-in-law, Christina Siders, is not competent to stand trial and requires behavioral health evaluation.
  • Gary Siders Jr. has pleaded not guilty to child-endangerment charges, while Elizabeth Siders faces 19 counts of child endangerment and two counts of sexual battery.
