Description
This appeal is from a judgment granting and denying post-conviction relief. The defendant, William J. Spranger, was convicted of the murder of a law enforcement officer and sentenced to death. We affirmed on direct appeal. Spranger v. State (1986), Ind., 498 N.E.2d 931, rehg denied, Ind., 500 N.E.2d 1170, cert. denied (1987), 481 U.S. 1033, 107 S. Ct. 1965, 95 L. Ed. 2d 536. The defendant then sought post-conviction relief. After proceedings including an evidentiary hearing, the post-conviction court denied the defendants request to vacate the murder conviction, but the court set aside the death sentence, with new sentencing proceedings to follow the Conclusion of this appeal. Both the defendant and the State now appeal: the defendant appeals the post-conviction courts refusal to vacate his conviction, and the State appeals the order setting aside the death sentence.
