Indiana Supreme Court
The following opinions were issued Tuesday after IL deadline.
Andrew Conley v. State of Indiana
58S00-1011-CR-634
Criminal. Affirms sentence of life without parole for Conley, who was 17 at the time he killed his 10-year-old brother. The court held that based on the age of defendant, the age of his brother, and the heinous nature of the crime, a sentence of life without parole was appropriate and constitutional.
Engelica E. Castillo v. State of Indiana
45S00-1102-LW-110
Criminal. Reverses sentence of life without parole for a conviction of murder and remands to the trial court to enter a revised sentence of 65 years in prison, holding that Castillo’s role in causing fatal injuries to a 2-year-old was indirect and that her sentence was inappropriate compared with that of a co-defendant.
