Judge's ruling on sodomy case prompts appeal to Su Se
Caldwell pleaded guilty in 1963 to three counts of sodomy involving a 13 year old girl. He received three concurrent 1 to 10 year prison terms despite hospital officials recommending parole and outpatient psychiatric care. Arnold ruled the Ohio County Intermediate Court violated state law by not following the recommendation. Robertson questions whether a judge may sentence to prison a sexual offense offender or must place them under mental health care.
