CARTHAGE — Preparations for the appeal of Bernie Tiede’s 99-year sentence continued Monday with the arrival of a 23 volume transcript of his April trial. Tiede was re-tried in April for the murder of 81-year-old Marjorie Nugent of Carthage in 1996. KETK reports Tiede’s defense team was given until December 28 to file arguments to appeal his new sentence. According to his attorney, the defense requested additional time for the appeal but was given a third of what it asked for. No date has been set for this new hearing.
