4 individuals, 2 IDOC transport officers, lawyers, and Brodey Murbarger were in Wayne County Court on Friday as there was a scheduled appeal hearing on the sentence handed down to Murbarger in January. Murbarger is currently serving a 50-year sentence in the Illinois Department of Corrections for the murder of 15-year-old Megan Nichols. At 11:48 this morning, Murbarger's attorney, Christian Baril, filed a motion to leave and amend the motion to reconsider Murbarger's sentence. In court, Baril mentioned the reason for the appeal was on constitutional grounds. In court, Wayne County States Attorney Kevin Kakac and Assistant District Attorney Michael Falagario did not object to the motion filed this morning. After some time, both sides came up with a new hearing date of June 16th with the new motion to be filed no later than June 9th. Wayne County Judge Michael Molt granted the motion and set the new date for the hearing to reconsider Murbarger's sentence for June 16th.
