Documents filed Friday amended a previously filed attempted murder charge in Burton’s shooting to murder and that requests a death sentence if Lee is convicted, the Palladium-Item reported.
RICHMOND, Ind. — A prosecutor wants the death penalty for a man charged with killing an Indiana police officer.
Court documents allege Lee pulled out a gun and fired shots toward the officers, striking Burton. Other officers returned fire, and Lee was apprehended following a foot chase. Shipman’s filing indicates that two aggravating circumstances would justify the death sentence: that Lee intentionally killed Burton while she was acting in the course of her duty and that the killing occurred while Lee was free on parole after being convicted of possession of a syringe and possession of a narcotic drug.
