Matthew Exton Sentenced to Up to 24½ Years, a New Trial Denied for Gerhardt Konig, and Tomasz Kosowski Starts Cross-Examining
Published 2 weeks ago
Description
Matthew Exton, 43, a former attorney convicted of attempting to shoot his ex-wife at the opening night of Sabira restaurant in Toledo, was sentenced Monday by Lucas County Judge Gary Cook. Exton tried to fire his attorney the morning of the hearing, then told the court that pointing a loaded gun at his ex-wife was not harm because it did not fire. Cook played the surveillance video, saying it showed Exton trying to disengage the safety after the gun failed — the moment that "cements the intent." Exton says he will appeal. Also: Judge Paul Wong denied Dr. Gerhardt Konig's motion for a new trial after questioning all twelve jurors, finding no outside influence despite reporting that an anonymous livestream commenter who claimed contact with a juror correctly predicted the verdict. Konig is sentenced January 8. And in Largo, Florida, Tomasz Kosowski has begun cross-examining the state's witnesses in his self-represented capital murder trial.
