Frink initially pleaded not guilty to shooting 70-year-old Pamela Ferriere multiple times.
Lawyers considering an insanity defense wrote in court documents Frink told police he was taken from the womb and subjected to a "sadistic scientific experiment."
Frink also told police he had not taken medication nor slept in a long time before the September 2017 shooting at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon.
Frink has been hospitalized in the past and diagnosed with bipolar and schizoaffective disorder.
