(KTTS News) — The trial continues this week for former Missouri State University instructor Edward Gutting.

Gutting is charged with stabbing retired professor Marc Cooper to death at his home in Springfield.

The doctor who evaluated Gutting at the Department of Mental Health testified in Greene County court Friday.

Dr. James Reynolds says Gutting was mentally stable when he met with him.

But he says Gutting’s schizophrenia likely caused delusions that led to the stabbing.

Gutting has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity.
