Burglary and Kidnap Charges Dismissed in Petoskey Case
Gregory Petoskey of Moline Illinois had faced first degree burglary going armed with intent and kidnapping charges in a 1978 Cedar Rapids incident. A Linn County District Court order dismissed the charges saying evidence was destroyed and insufficient to convict beyond a reasonable doubt. Similar charges from a second 1978 burglary were dismissed earlier. Petoskey previously faced other charges linked to an Eastern Iowa serial rapist case but was cleared. In 1982 he received a five year suspended sentence and three years probation after pleading guilty to a $900 deception in Cedar Rapids while managing a store.
