The state’s highest court will not let Floyd Galloway’s prosecutors re-assert that sexual assault evidence can be used to prove he murdered a missing Farmington Hills woman.
The Michigan Supreme Court issued an April 27 order that denied the request to appeal “because we are not persuaded that the question presented should be reviewed by this court.”
Oakland Circuit Judge Phyllis McMillen and the Michigan Court of Appeals already have ruled that the assault evidence should not be used to prove the premeditated murder of Danielle Stislicki, 28, because the two cases involved facts too dissimilar.
Galloway’s sexual assault victim a Hines Park runner was a stranger. Galloway and Stislicki knew each other from working at the MetLife building in Southfield where Galloway was, for a time, a security guard.

King was sworn in as vice president in Cuba and only made it as far as Mobile, Alabama before he died six weeks later in 1853. King’s running mate in the election of 1852 had been, you guessed it, Franklin Pierce.
