Murder case dismissed against ex-wrestler Jimmy 'Superfly' Snuka

The decision filed Tuesday (Wednesday NZ time) in Lehigh County says the 73-year-old Snuka is not competent to stand trial on counts including third-degree murder.

Snuka's attorney told a judge in December that his client is in hospice care in Florida and has six months to live.

Snuka was charged in 2015 with the death of Nancy Argentino, whose body was found more than three decades earlier in their Whitehall Township hotel room. Authorities reopened the investigation after The Morning Call newspaper raised questions about the case in 2013.

Robert Kirwan II filed a motion in Pennsylvania's Lehigh County Court for competency hearing for the 72-year-old resident of Camden County, New Jersey, who was scheduled to go on trial in March.

Snuka has been charged with third-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter in the 1983 death of 23-year-old Nancy Argentino, of New York.
