AMITE — An Amite man arrested for allegedly killing his parents was found unfit to stand trial in Tangipahoa Parish following a sanity hearing.

Joshua Brocato, 34, was arrested in Marina Del Rey, California, after deputies said he killed his parents, Priscilla and Marc Brocato. Priscilla's body was found in the family's home in Amite on April 3, with her husband's body later being located on the property.

At the time of his arrest, deputies said Joshua Brocato had three guns in his van, including an assault rifle and body armor. 

Joshua Brocato was booked for two counts of first-degree murder, one count of manufacturing and cultivating marijuana, one count of manufacturing, distributing or possession of hallucinogenic plants, and one count of possession of weapons while in possession of controlled dangerous substances.

Following a sanity hearing, Brocato was found incompetent to stand trial and was transported to the Eastern Louisiana Mental Health System. His next hearing will be on Oct. 28.
