However, on March 3, 2026, '''Daniel would finally be declared competent for trial.''' After 20 months of institutionalization and competency restoration efforts, Daniel was finally in a state where he was able to stand trial. Most notably, psychiatrist Dr. Katlyn Hanson indicated that Daniel's erratic behavior was a result of continuous self harm, resulting in a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Met with this information, Daniel, likely advised by his defense team to take a plea deal due to the strong case against him, took such on March 20, 2026. | However, on March 3, 2026, '''Daniel would finally be declared competent for trial.'''

As part of said plea deal, six of the charges were dropped, and Daniel pleaded guilty to the remaining charge, which was related to him threatening Daniel MacDougall. Per the terms of the plea agreement, he is expected to serve a sentence of 27 to 33 months in prison, with credit for the 23 months he served prior to the hearing. It also includes a fine ranging from $10,000 to $95,000 and one to three years of supervised release, all subject to conditions. His ultimate sentencing will be done on July 21, 2026. While the ultimate details will only be decided then, general speculation can deduce that Daniel would serve anywhere from 4 to 10 months in prison from July 2026 onwards (meaning a release of November 2026 to June 2027), and a general supervised release period lasting anywhere from 2027 to 2030. His fine would likely be paid by his trust fund as-managed by Nancy Shimer's estate. | As part of said plea deal, six of the charges were dropped, and Daniel pleaded guilty to the remaining charge, which was related to him threatening Daniel MacDougall.

Until then, Larstory is up in the air, and for the current conditions Daniel finds himself in, one can't help but feel that the story of Daniel Larson seems to be told for good. | ||
