WBFF Fox 45 :: New Information Revitalizes Homicide Investigations
New evidence is breathing life into not one, but 3 Clarksville murder cases. Forensic information and new leads are behind the recent focus, and officers are hoping you can help solve these crimes.

Jonah Gray was found dead in his home on September 6, 2010. Officers say no one was inside the home. Witnesses did say they saw the 74 year old at work earlier in the day.

The 2nd case was the murder of Raul Triana. He was shot to death in May of last year inside his Bunker Hill home. Police say several men kicked in the front door and demanded money. Clarksville investigators don't think this was a random act.

The 3rd case happened earlier this year. Amanda Weyand and Derrick Sherden were found shot to death in a Main Street home. Officers say forensic information has created several good leads. If you know anything about these 3 crimes, call 931.645.8477.New Information Revitalizes Homicide Investigations

Updated conservatorship statute effective July 1
May 21, 2013 12:49 GMT

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Gov. Bill Haslam has signed into law revisions to the state conservatorship statute.

The law allows the court to appoint a conservator to manage the assets of a person a judge finds unable to handle his or her own affairs.

State Rep. Andrew Farmer, a Sevierville Republican, told The Tennessean (http://tnne.ws/1183hjy ) the intent of the bill he sponsored in the House is to make sure people aren't being taken advantage of.

The bill sprang from a series of hearings statewide by the Tennessee Bar Association. They revealed there were no uniform procedures for placing a person's assets under a conservator on an emergency basis.

The changes take effect July 1.
