LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — A Novato woman charged with vehicular manslaughter for a double-fatal car crash in March has been found mentally competent.

Keilah‌ ‌Marie‌ ‌Coyle,‌ ‌22,‌ appeared in Lake County Superior Court on Tuesday, May 11, for a hearing on her mental competence after her attorney raised concerns last month.

Coyle is facing several counts of vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated plus special allegations for causing great bodily injury and the death of more than one person for the March 13 wreck near Middletown that claimed the life of Clearlake residents Cassandra‌ ‌Elaine‌ ‌Rolicheck, 53, and Miguel‌ ‌Maciel‌ ‌Dominguez,‌ ‌47.

At an April court appearance, Tim Hodson of Sacramento, Coyle’s attorney, declared a doubt about her competency, which triggered a mental competency review process before the criminal case could proceed.

On May 11, the court received a doctor’s report and Coyle was found to be competent.

Hodson told Lake County News that he didn’t object to the finding and they’re moving forward with additional proceedings.

Chief Deputy District Attorney Richard Hinchcliff said a bail review hearing has been set for May 25.

At that point, Coyle — who has remained in custody since her arrest early on the morning of March 14 — will make a bid for release or a reduction of her $2 million bail, Hinchcliff said.

Hinchcliff said Coyle’s preliminary hearing is scheduled for July 12.
