Supreme Court Upholds Man’s Life Sentence

Marilyn Odendahl for www.theindianalawyer.com

An Elkhart County man who smoked synthetic marijuana then stabbed his girlfriend to death was unable to convince the Indiana Supreme Court that his sentence of life without parole was unconstitutional.

Michael T. Shoun was convicted of murdering his 17-year-old girlfriend in 2013 and sentenced to spend the remainder of his life in prison. Shoun appealed, arguing he has an intellectual disability and his punishment is unconstitutional under Article 1, Section 16 of the Indiana Constitution which provides that all penalties be proportional to the offense.

The Supreme Court affirmed the sentence in Michael T. Shoun v. State of Indiana, 20S00-1601-LW-00061.

In an opinion written by Justice Steven David, the unanimous court dismissed Shoun’s contention that the Elkhart Superior Court should have sua sponte determined that he has an intellectual disability and is therefore ineligible for a life sentence. In particular, the Supreme Court noted Shoun’s own counsel withdrew Shoun’s motion for a hearing under the Disability Chapter after determining he could not meet the burden to prove Shoun had a disability that manifested prior to age 22.

Also the Supreme Court found the sentence was proportional to the crime.

Shoun was already supposed to be serving time for a habitual traffic offender conviction but had fled a work release facility to be with his girlfriend. He stabbed her so many times the coroner could not count the number of wounds and some of her organs were severed and removed. Moreover the medical exam found that the girlfriend was alive while the wounds were inflicted.

“Shoun’s (life without parole) penalty is not only based upon his status as a prior offender, but is also independently supported by the nature of his crime,” David wrote. “That is, he mutilated (his girlfriend) while she was still alive. …Again, the nature of the offense here is so severe that it cannot be said that the LWOP penalty is disproportionate.”

Kuester’s Hardware Store

4

Fred Kuester’s first store, seen here at the corner of Lincoln and Weinbach, opened in 1937, in what was then a sparsely-developed part of town. Advertising itself as “the hardware store and more,” the business became a fixture in the retail community for decades as Fred Kuester, an Evansville native, gained a national reputation as a pioneer in the industry for his store designs, varied merchandise, and other innovations. Branches later operated on Diamond Avenue, Vann Avenue, in the North Park, Fairlawn and Lawndale shopping centers, and in venues as distant as Owensboro, Kentucky, before the business was phased out after the death of Kuester’s widow in 2000.

USI Softball earns votes in NFCA Preseason Top 25 Poll

NFCA Preseason Top 25 Coaches’ Poll

 University of Southern Indiana Softball begins the 2017 season in February receiving consideration for the National Fastpitch Coaches Association Preseason Top 25 Poll.

USI, which is essentially 30th with nine votes, returns seven position starters and three pitchers off a team that went 35-21 overall and 21-9 in the Great Lakes Valley Conference a year ago.

Included in that list of returning players are five All-GLVC honorees, two All-Region performers and the reigning GLVC Player of the Year in senior All-American catcher Haley Hodges (Portage, Indiana).

Hodges, who was named first-team All-America by Herosports.com, the NFCA and the Division II Conference Commissioners Association, is coming off a historic 2016 season that saw her set single-season school records for home runs (22), RBIs (72), walks (45) and runs scored (58).

Surrounding Hodges in the lineup is a first-team All-GLVC outfielder in sophomore Olivia Clark-Kittleson (Carbondale, Illinois), a pair of second-team All-GLVC honorees in junior first baseman Marleah Fossett (Brownsburg, Indiana) and sophomore designated player/pitcher/outfielder Caitlyn Bradley (Forest, Indiana), and a third-team All-GLVC shortstop in senior Lexi Reese (Lebanon, Indiana).

Clark-Kittleson hit .351 with nine RBIs and 18 runs scored before injury cut her 2016 season short. Fossett hit .336 with 11 doubles, six home runs and 37 RBIs, while Bradley hit .300 with 12 doubles, a triple, two home runs and 23 RBIs in her first year of collegiate softball. Bradley also earned All-Midwest Region honors a year ago.

Reese had a huge year for USI as a junior when she hit .326 with 16 doubles, 10 home runs and 40 RBIs.

In the pitcher’s circle, the Eagles return Bradley and fellow sophomores Haylee Smith (Florence, Kentucky) and Courtney Atkisson (Bringhurst, Indiana). Smith led the Eagles with a 2.91 ERA and 11 complete games as a freshman, while Bradley went 6-3 with a 3.04 ERA.

Atkisson is coming off a strong fall campaign that saw the emergence of freshman pitcher Jennifer Leonhardt (Louisville, Kentucky). Leonhardt earned third-team All-State honors as a senior after posting a 2.40 ERA and 250 strikeouts during her senior season.

USI opens the year February 14 when it travels to Florence, Alabama, to take on defending NCAA Division II champion and preseason No. 1 University of North Alabama.

The Eagles also are slated to play preseason No. 6 Grand Valley State University March 6 at The Spring Games in Clermont, Florida, while the University of Indianapolis (No. 16) and the University of Missouri-St. Louis (No. 23) are the only GLVC teams to open the year in the NFCA Top 25 preseason poll.

Following their doubleheader with North Alabama, the Eagles host the Midwest Region Crossover February 24-26 at Deaconess Sports Park in Evansville. USI opens its home schedule March 15 with a doubleheader against Midwest Region foe Kentucky Wesleyan College.

MVC Releases 2017 Softball Preseason Poll

Aces chosen to finish in 6th place

 

  1. LOUIS – On Wednesday, the Missouri Valley Conference released its 2017 Preseason Softball Poll.  With a solid nucleus of players returning from last year’s 24-win squad, the University of Evansville was picked to finish sixth in the league.

 

“Honestly, preseason polls and rankings are fun but do not mean much.  We know as a team what we have to do and where we want to be,” Purple Aces head coach Mat Mundell said.  “Now that the season is here, it is time to go to work.  When it comes to polls and rankings, our focus is more on where we are at the end of the season.”

 

The MVC also released its preseason first team, which featured UE sophomore Morgan Florey.  Florey, who is the defending MVC Freshman of the Year, finished third in the MVC with a 1.95 ERA and went 16-11 in the circle.  She was also the top power hitter on the team, leading UE with 8 home runs and 26 RBI.

 

Also coming back for the Aces is 2-time All-MVC First Teamer Chandra Parr.  The senior was a strong hitter in 2016, batting .306 with 23 RBIs.

 

With six first-place votes, Drake was picked to win the league, just ahead of Wichita State, who received three of the top votes.  Southern Illinois was chosen third with UNI and Illinois State rounding out the top five.  The full poll and preseason squad is below.
