Nunn Transferred To State Custody

  • {Kentucky}...Former lawmaker 58 year old Steve Nunn has been transferred to state custody from the Fayette County Detention Center but has not received a final prison assignment. Kentucky Department of Corrections spokeswoman Lisa Lamb says Nunn went to Roederer Correctional Complex in La Grange for assessment and classification, which includes physical and mental health evaluations. Lamb says the process takes up to six weeks before a final prison assignment is made. Nunn pleaded guilty in June to fatally shooting his former fiancee, 29-year-old Amanda Ross, outside her home in Lexington in 2009. He was sentenced to life without parole.
