Marion County

Mr. Kopsho was convicted of the first-degree murder of his wife, Lynne Kopsho, who was fatally shot in 2000. He was sentenced to death but his conviction was overturned on appeal. He was retried and convicted again. The jury voted 10-2 to recommend a death sentence and the trial court condemned Mr. Kopsho to death. This Court upheld the death sentence and Mr. Kopsho filed a post-conviction challenge in trial court. It was denied and this appeal followed.
