Ronnie MEADOWS, Appellant, v. COMMONWEALTH of Kentucky, Appellee.

Supreme Court of Kentucky.

Rehearing Denied June 10, 1977.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Jack Emory Farley, Public Defender, Frankfort, J. Vincent Aprile, Anna H. Isaacs, Asst. Public Defenders, for appellant.

Robert F. Stephens, Atty. Gen., Patrick B. Kimberlin, III, Asst. Atty. Gen., Frankfort, for appellee.


PALMORE, Justice.

Ronnie Meadows appeals from a judgment sentencing him to death pursuant to a verdict finding him guilty of intentional murder committed in the course of 1st-degree burglary. KRS 507.020(2)(b).
