Alaska to Retry Ex-Stripper for 1996 Murder

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — The state of Alaska will again put a former stripper-turned-soccer mom on trial in the 1996 death of her former fiance.

Mechele Linehan's conviction was overturned earlier this month by the Alaska Court of Appeals.

Attorney General Dan Sullivan said Monday the state will not appeal the decision, and instead will put Linehan on trial again.

Assistant Attorney General Rick Svobodny says there is "sufficient evidence to support a second conviction."

    I saw this story on dateline and it was really sad...these guys were being manipulated by her one way or another. I'm not exactly sure it rose to the level of a prson sentence, I don't remember much of it. Typical stripper/custy storyline except for the murder part. PL goes into club, is led to believe young vixen really loves him, gets used by young vixen, you get the picture...sad sad sad...
