Well can you believe the POS filed this. There is a taint hearing Tuesday the 14th at 9 am in Porter county. 05/08/2019 Motion to Dismiss Filed Defendant files Motion to Dismiss for State's Misconduct Filed By: Larkin, John B File Stamp: 05/07/2019 05/08/2019 Memorandum/Brief Filed Defendant by counsel files Memorandum in Support of Motion to Dismiss Filed By: Larkin, John B File Stamp: 05/07/2019 Does anyone know the results of the taint hearing? I assume that his statement can be used because the Supreme Court specifically listed it as untainted evidence. |

[/ Well it was more a hearing on them trying to get it dismissed again, court lasted 3 1/2 hours. It was the biggest BS saying everything the State did was wrong. Now waiting on Judge Bradford decision. On a funnier note did anyone see that the former Judge Blankenship was arrested in Pulaski County. A total bunch of funny business https://wkvi.com/2019/05/former-pulaski-cou...judge-arrested/ |

They're trying to get it dismissed after the Supreme Court said the court wrongly dismissed it in the first place? Crazy! (but I guess after the first judge, anything's possible) I hear there's an investigative report in the works. They are interested in why Indiana has such a hard time trying a man who shot an unarmed woman. TWICE! The stuff on that corrupt judge will be a great side line. |

I went to the trial because I had read so much about the twists and turns of the case over the years and was interested in hearing the actual evidence. I have no "horse in the race", so to speak and was expecting to hear a lot of what has been printed. I have to say that I was amazed to see the reporter from the News Dispatch happily chatting with the defendant's family and friends during the breaks. After hearing the evidence, I can only conclude that the news reporting is HEAVILY biased, for whatever reason. The paper entirely ignores any of the evidence that was damaging to the defendant and to which he admitted during the police interview that they played, such as the fact that he had possession of the gun the entire time and said that his wife was "not getting out of the closet" or the bizarre recorded 911 call where the operator thinks he was the one shot (I think he actually chuckled at one point). I felt bad for his kids who testified on his behalf but the news coverage is what is very disturbing to me. A small community relies on the press for accurate reporting (particularly of local news) and this makes me think that everything I've read in the paper over the years has been written with an agenda in mind and is not the whole story. If anyone knows any of the jurors or an unbiased person who heard the evidence, I urge you to ask them about it and confirm everything I've written for yourself. It's really sad to see the state of journalism today. It's seems to be all about manipulating opinion.

It's really sad to see the state of journalism today. It's seems to be all about manipulating opinion. I agree with you. Good journalism is hard to find. Almost 100% of the stories that I have contributed a story to any newspaper, and I know exactly what the facts are in the submitted story, always come out with something that is either made up or incorrect. I think most of the time they do not do it on purpose, usually it is ignorance, or lack of experience. They need to learn to ask clarifying questions and/or repeat back what they just heard and/or ask the source to proof the article before publication. For example, I wrote into the N-D about that person getting stuck in the Franklin Street bridge about if they asked if the bridge has an e-stop that the attendant can hit to immediately stop the bridge in whatever position it is in and they never published my letter to the paper. As a citizen that travels that bridge frequently, I would like to know, because if it does not have one, that is extremely unsafe for the public, and if it does have one, why didn't the bridge attendant use it? I would think a good reporter would have asked that question as one of the top 3 questions. In regards to what you said about the trial, I noticed that the last three stories in the paper including the one that said Larkin was guilty used his "nice" picture. Wouldn't they use his mugshot for the article that said he was found guilty? They made it look like he was happy to serve 2-8 years. I also was interested in knowing the facts, but I did not have time to attend the trial. Thanks for sharing what you heard. |

I drive that bridge almost every day and it would be good information to have. |

All I have to say is that I hope the Judge takes in consideration Stacey's family and friends and realizes the pain and suffering they have gone through over the last 6 1/2 years. He just didn't take away a mother , he took away a daughter,sister,aunt,sister-in-law,cousin and a friend to many. I really think he deserves the max of 8 years in which he would only serve 4 if good behavior. Just my opinion.

It's been a year since he was found guilty and still no time served. The case is in the Court of Appeals right now and the Court has requested an oral argument via Zoom. Hopefully the Judges will make the correct decision and not overturn the ruling if they do he walks a free man . Here is the latest on the Docket from the courts.
Order Scheduling Oral Argument Having reviewed the matter, the Court finds and orders as follows: 1. This case is scheduled for a remote Oral Argument using the Zoom application for the following date and time: Thursday, October 22, 2020 11:00 a.m., (Indianapolis Time) 2.

The bailiff will join the meeting before the start of the oral argument to determine whether Appellant wants to reserve any time for rebuttal. Thereafter, the bailiff will begin the oral argument with the call to order. A clock will be displayed showing counsel the amount of time they have left to argue. 10. Each side will be allotted twenty (20) minutes for argument. 11. No documents or motions will be entertained at the time of the argument.

So oral arguments are complete, let's see how the Judges rule. I am hoping for the conviction to stand and that he gets his time in jail.
