BOONE COUNTY, Ky. (WTVQ)- In northern Kentucky, a man convicted of murder is getting a new trial.

According to the Cincinnati Enquirer, David Dooley will get a retrial due to an affair between the Boone County Commonwealth’s Attorney and the lead investigator on the case, plus the possibility that evidence was withheld.

Dooley was sentenced to life in 2014 for the murder of his co-worker Michelle Mockbee two years prior.
