Cochrum defense seeks sanctions over police probe influence
The motion argues the attorney general's office may have discussed the case with the child or guardians and warns a single word from the prosecutor could taint the decision. Tammy Cochrum, widow of Kenneth Cochrum, and Kenny Cochrum, a Benton officer on unpaid leave since August 2000 amid abuse allegations, deny guilt as their case heads to trial next year. No hearing date has been set for sanctions.
