Supreme Court Denies Priest’s Appeal in Nun Killing
The United States Supreme Court nixed the appeal of a Roman Catholic priest who was convicted of murdering a nun in Ohio. The court said on Monday that it is going to decline hearing the appeal of Reverend Gerald Robinson, who was convicted in 2006 for the murder of Sister Margaret Ann Pahl.
Pahl’s body was discovered on Easter weekend in 1980 in a hospital chapel where both she and Robinson worked. She had been strangled and stabbed over thirty times in the face, neck, and chest. Robinson, now aged seventy-one, was a chaplain at the hospital at the time of the murder. Robinson was sentenced to fifteen years to live in prison.
