Joseph Anthony Eutsler
A transient man originally from New Jersey who is accused of starting the Gravel Pit Fire south of Libby in 2023 is scheduled to go to the Montana State Hospital in Warm Springs for a mental health evaulation.
Joseph Anthony Eutsler, 39, is being held on $250,000 bail in the Lincoln County Detention Center. His attorney, public defender Ben Kolter, requested the evaluation to determine if he is able to assist and aid in his defense against two felony charges of arson.
Eutsler pleaded not guilty to the charges in August 2023.
