Coverage of Susan King Exoneration
Louisville Courier - Journal
Susan Jean King's long ordeal is over.
The one-legged woman who
claimed she pleaded guilty to a homicide she didn't commit only because
she was railroaded by a state police detective won't face a new trial.
The
commonwealth's attorney for Spencer and Shelby counties Tuesday agreed
to dismiss charges of murder and tampering with physical evidence
against King in the 1998 slaying of Kyle "Deanie" Breeden, said her
lawyer, Linda Smith, supervising attorney in the Kentucky Innocence
Project.
