Developing Story on Kenneth Allen

From WSBT:

A man accused of killing his mother and grandparents and burying their bodies in a basement sent a note to a judge requesting the death penalty.

Marion Superior Judge Tanya Walton Pratt set a hearing for May 8 to discuss Kenneth Lee Allen's handwritten motion, in which he also said he wished to represent himself in court.

"I, Kenneth Allen, wish to represent myself and to enter a plea for the death penalty," the note read.

The motion received by the judge Thursday was not filed or signed by two attorneys appointed to represent Allen and they likely will try to dissuade him...

Kenneth Allen's trial has been delayed while his attorneys appeal a court ruling denying a request to suppress evidence.
