Sypher Sentencing Postponed
KENTUCKY....
Karen Cunagin Sypher was scheduled for sentencing on Tuesday, but U.S. District Judge Charles R. Simpson signed an order last week moving it to February 18th. Simpson said attorneys need more time to respond to a revised presentence report. Her new attorney filed a motion Friday seeking e-mails and other communications from attorneys and her ex-husband. David Nolan says Sypher received three boxes of evidence from one of her former attorneys that had never been reviewed. He's asking for her former attorneys, Pitino and his attorney Steve Pence and her ex-husband, Tim Sypher, to turn over e-mails and text messages concerning the case. Sypher was convicted in August of extortion, lying to the FBI and retaliation against a witness after being charged with attempting to extort Louisville basketball coach Rick Pitino.
