MINNEAPOLIS — An Iowa woman accused of driving down Interstate 90 with a former girlfriend’s body in the backseat has been found competent to stand trial. This means that second-degree murder charges won’t go away for Margot Lewis. The 32-year-old woman was arrested east-bound on I-90 near Eyota in June. It’s been established that the victim was killed in a Minneapolis apartment and her body carried to Lewis’ car. Now with the psychiatric evaluation complete, the judge ordered that Lewis remain in jail in lieu of $1.5 million bail pending further court hearings.
