The Ohio Supreme Court Wednesday refused to hear an appeal from a Twinsburg man convicted in the January 2007 murder of his former girlfriend, Charlene Puffenbarger, at her Twinsburg apartment in 1992.
The Ninth District Court of Appeals rejected Willard S. McCarley's contention that a Summit County Common Pleas judge mishandled his second trial and sentence in 2007.
He was convicted in 2005, but the appeals court granted him a new trial because of a complimentary remark that now retired Judge Marvin Shapiro made to a witness in front of a jury.
