The U.S. Secret Service investigated the case, which will be prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Will Crow of the local U.S. attorney's office.

Hall's family said he has had mental health problems his whole life but has recently become "bizarre." He is due in court on Wednesday on charges unrelated to this case, including false pretense and being a fugitive from justice.
