Nunn’s digital files probed in ex-fiancee’s death Associated Press Associated Press LEXINGTON — Lexington police are searching the digital files of former state Rep. Steve Nunn as part of their investigation into the slaying of his former fiancee.
Police are checking to see if Nunn kept a naked photo of Amanda Ross on his cell phone as witnesses have alleged, the Lexington Herald-Leader reported, citing court documents. A judge had barred Nunn in July from having any nude photos of Ross as part of a domestic violence order against him. Police have charged Nunn in the shooting death of Ross, 29, outside her Lexington townhouse on Sept. 11. The case is pending before a grand jury in Fayette County. Shortly after her death, police collecting evidence in Barren County found fliers depicting Ross naked along with “insulting verbiage,” the newspaper reported, citing an affidavit on a search warrant. Investigators said in another affidavit that those fliers, found in Barren County, where Nunn had a home, “appeared to be designed for distribution,” the newspaper reported. The document didn’t give the address of the house where the photos were found. Those documents in the criminal case against Nunn offer new insight into the scope of the investigation. For example, the documents describe how police have sought e-mail and phone records not only to learn more about Nunn and Ross’s troubled relationship but also to see if cell phone tower data could track Nunn’s whereabouts on the day of Ross’s slaying. Witnesses reported hearing Ross scream “no” in the parking lot outside her townhouse, then heard four to five shots. They saw a man run away, according to court documents. Hours later, state police found Nunn in a Hart County cemetery where his father, former Republican Gov. Louie B. Nunn, and mother, Beula, are buried. A Hart County grand jury last week indicted Nunn on six counts of wanton endangerment for allegedly waving a gun near the officers. When the officers reached Nunn, they found he had cut his wrists. Most of the 10 search warrants issued in the first days after Ross’s death appear to be aimed at helping police understand more about Nunn’s and Ross’s relationship, the contact the two had with each other after the domestic violence order was issued and Nunn’s computer habits. Investigators are performing forensic computer analysis on laptop and desktop computers used by Nunn, as well as his cell phone, according to a search warrant. Nunn’s attorney, Warren N. Scoville, did not immediately return calls Sunday seeking comment. ——— Information from: Lexington Herald-Leader, http://www.kentucky.com
