Evansville, IN – Tuesday, October 16, 2012 Terry W. Rexing, age 40, was convicted in Vanderburgh County Superior Court of Dealing in Methamphetamine – Class A Felony, Possession of a Precursor with Intent to Manufacture Methamphetamine – Class D Felony, Maintaining a Common Nuisance – Class D Felony, False Informing – Class B Misdemeanor and Criminal Recklessness – Class B Misdemeanor. After the jury found Rexing guilty on all counts, the defendant admitted to being a Habitual Offender.
Rexing faces 20-50 years for the Class A Felony, ½-3 years for each of the Class D Felonies and 0-180 days for each of the Class B Misdemeanors; all to be served in the Indiana Department of Corrections. The Habitual Offender Enhancement will add 30 years on top of what he is sentenced to by Judge Robert Pigman on November 16, 2012 at 1:00 p.m.
Rexing was arrested on August 2, 2012 after a second floor apartment that he rented caught fire. The apartment was less than 100 feet from Vogel Elementary School, where children were present at the time of the fire. Once the fire was out and a search warrant was obtained, many methamphetamine making materials were located inside the apartment. The materials used to manufacture methamphetamine were found to be the cause of the fire. For more arrest information, please see the attached probable cause affidavit.
Just a note – my testimony & map showing the distance of the bust to the school pushed this to Felony A. I worked with Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Heath Tuley. I testified Monday, October 15 at approximately 3 pm. I was heartily cross-examined by the defense attorney, but my map & testimony was admitted.
Thanks!!
