    Bayan Aleksey Back in Court

    St. George (AP) -- Attorneys for a man convicted of killing a state trooper in 1997 are asking that his death sentence be overturned. Lawyers for Bayan Aleksey on Monday asked Circuit Judge Diane Goodstein to order a new trial. Thirty-four-year-old Aleksey was sentenced to die for the New Year's Eve 1997 slaying of Sergeant Frankie Lingard. Prosecutors say Lingard was shot four times during a traffic stop near Santee on Interstate 95. Aleksey was later arrested near Summerville. The hearing on the request for a new trial resumed Monday after an eight-month break because of scheduling problems with the judge. Lawyers for Aleksey are questioning his original attorneys about their handling of the case. That's a typical tactic in what is called a post-conviction relief hearing.
