Kentucky child killer walks free as family says justice failed despite years of legal fights

The Kentucky father whose 6-year-old son was stabbed to death while sleeping says the man found not guilty by reason of insanity in the killing received "a slap on the wrist" after being released from prison July 29 upon completing his sentence for assaulting three surviving family members.Ronald Exantus was released from Kentucky Department of Corrections custody on July 29 after completing the sentence imposed for assaulting Logan Tipton's father and sisters during the 2015 home invasion that left the 6-year-old dead.The case stunned Kentucky after prosecutors said Exantus broke into the Tipton family's home on Dec.7, 2015, and fatally stabbed 6-year-old Logan Tipton while he slept.
Logan's father and two sisters were also stabbed but survived the attack.A jury later found Exantus not guilty by reason of insanity on murder and burglary charges but guilty but mentally ill on assault charges involving the surviving family members.The assault convictions resulted in the prison sentence he completed last week, reigniting outrage from the Tipton family and renewed questions about Kentucky's criminal justice system.FLORIDA AG SEEKS JUDGE'S IMPEACHMENT AFTER BABY DROWNING COVID INSANITY ACQUITTALRonald Exantus served 11 years, nine months, and eighteen days before he was released on July 29.
