Jimmy Snuka Testifies In Mental Competency Hearing

The Allentown Morning Call reports that Jimmy Snuka took the stand in the hearing into his mental competency hearing to determine whether he can stand trial on involuntary manslaughter and third-degree murder in the May 1983 death of Nancy Argentino on Friday. The site reports that Snuka testified for a little over an hour, during which he was questioned by the judge.

According to the site, Snuka was unable to name politicians or sports personalities despite regularly watching the news and wasn’t aware this was an election year. He said he thought judges would sit in the juror’s box during a trial. Snuka was more energetic when he was asked about wrestling, acknowledging that promoters determine the results of matches but saying that to him, pro wrestling was real. He said that the injuries suffered were real and that he kept most of his own injuries to himself, not complaining because the next time it may be his turn to “kick” his opponent in a match.

Snuka said Argentino was a friend he had met during wrestling events and said he felt like he was doing a good job. When the judge in the case asked if he would do whatever his lawyer asked of him, including jumping off a building, Snuka replied, “I have done that” to laughs from the courtroom. When provided the wrong nickname for Dwayne Johnson (“The Stone”) by the judge, Snuka agreed that was his nickname.

Snuka was reportedly unable to remember the name of his mother and was “confused” about his given name and age. There was no ruling on his competency and another hearing is set for June 21st.
