A Broken Arrow man accused of killing his wife and son in May 2023 was found insane at a hearing Wednesday.
Phillip Hammock is said to have shot 48-year-old Annette Hammock and her 17-year-old son and then turned the gun on himself.
Broken Arrow police said it happened in the 2500 block of West Honolulu. Officers found Phillip inside with a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
He was released from the hospital in July 2023 after recovering from his injuries and arrested.
Due to the traumatic brain injury, Hammock was declared incompetent at Wednesday’s hearing. Records indicate he is not currently dangerous.
He is accused of two counts of premeditated murder and is due to appear in court again on August 28.
