Skeletal remains identified as Markham’s were found in 2013 in a wooded area in Cedar Grove, Indiana, about 20 miles west of her home in Fairfield. Authorities ruled her death a homicide but did not determine how she was killed. Butler County prosecutors have said Carter caused Markham’s death by “physical violence and by force.” They said Thursday that Carter still hasn’t explained how or why he killed Markham.Appeals court refuses to lift order blocking rule meant to expand protections for LGBTQ+ students“Not a day goes by that I don’t think of Katelyn,” he said, imploring Judge Daniel Haughey to sentence Carter to the maximum sentence by law. “Let him feel the pain that many of us have endured for the past 13 years.
Carter did not speak during the sentencing hearing. His attorneys asked Haughey to impose probation or a minimal prison term, asking him to consider the law and not emotional statements. Haughey, though, imposed the maximum term allowed under the plea deal, saying Carter “has shown no genuine remorse for this offense.” He also noted that Carter did not try to help Markham or acknowledge what happened to her immediately after her death.
