Cheyenne Wolf’s remains — and other pieces of evidence in the case — may be examined by the state medical examiner today.

The girl’s body was exhumed from beneath the porch of her Bokchito, Oklahoma home and moved from state to state, prosecutors said. Abel and Denise Wolf, Cheyenne’s father and stepmother, are jailed in Bryan County where they are charged with unlawful removal of a body.
"The body and evidence are still sealed,” said Cherokee Ballard, spokeswoman for the state medical examiner’s office.

The evidence, gathered by an Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation agent, arrived Wednesday at the medical examiner’s Oklahoma City office. Cheyenne’s body came back Tuesday from Oregon, where it has been since investigators discovered it on July 4.

A preliminary hearing for the Wolfs is scheduled Nov. 18.

Jordan A. Brown, Accused Child Murderer, Back in Court This Week

Accused Child Murderer Back in Court This Week

Sunday, 23 August 2009

A disturbing murder case in Lawrence County will go back to court this week.

Attorneys for 11-year-old Jordan Brown will go back to court Wednesday, with the goal of suppressing evidence in his case. He's being charged as an adult in the murder of 26-year-old Kenzie Houk and her unborn son in February.

Houk was the fiance of Brown's father, who fathered the child she was carrying.

The defense team wants a judge to suppress evidence in the killing, including an interview of Brown conducted by police at the child's elementary school on the day of the killings. Their argument is that Brown was not sufficiently notified of his rights at the time of the interview.

The defense is also still trying to get Brown's case moved from adult to juvenile court. An exact date for the hearing has not yet been set.

Atkins, who suffers from brain cancer, slept through most of the four-hour hearing Wednesday during which her husband-lawyer pleaded for her release and families of victims of the Sharon Tate-Labianca killings urged that she be kept behind bars until she dies.

In a dramatic moment — one of the few in which Atkins opened her eyes — Atkins' husband, James Whitehouse, led her through a recitation of the 23rd Psalm, with Atkins concluding in a strong voice, "My God is an amazing God."

"I have no compassion for you, bitch." Susan Atkins, August 1969, to Sharon Tate as she and her baby were murdered.

...Atkins, 61, had been expected to die of brain cancer over a year ago but miraculously continues to cling to life. She was denied compassionate release in July 2008 after she was diagnosed and given only months to live...
