Man gets new trial in stabbing death
A Marion County man Richard Less, 35, convicted of stabbing Cindy Crostan to death in 1986, will get a new trial. Judge Rodney Merrifield delayed ruling for over a year, citing unfair trial conduct and a conflict of interest due to defense counsel’s prior work for the prosecutor’s office. The new trial, to be held in February, follows a 1989 conviction for first degree murder.
