Sheley case inches forward
Prosecutors, defense prepare for trial in Rock Falls homicides
ROCK FALLS – With a second life sentence handed down to Nicholas T. Sheley this week, prosecutors now will turn their attention to trying him in the deaths of four Rock Falls people.
The 33-year-old Sterling man is tentatively set to be tried June 3 for the deaths of Brock Branson, 29; his fiancée Kilynna Blake, 20; her 2-year-old Dayan Blake; and Kenneth Ulve, 25.
That will be the third of four trials Sheley will face in connection with what prosecutors and police say was a drug- and alcohol-fueled, two-state killing spree in late June 2008.
