   A man who was accused of stabbing a sleeping 6-year-old child to death in   
   2015 -- acquitted by reason of insanity but convicted on other counts and   
   later released from prison -- is being sent back to Kentucky from Florida,   
   according to arrest documents and officials.   
      
   Ronald Exantus, 42, was freed from a Kentucky prison last week after   
   serving eight years behind bars for a crime in 2015 in which he was   
   accused of entering an unlocked residence and stabbing 6-year-old Logan   
   Tipton, resulting in his death, with a butcher knife taken from the   
   kitchen. Exantus also stabbed two of the boy's sisters and father.   
      
   He was acquitted of capital murder for Logan's death and first-degree   
   burglary by reason of insanity in a Kentucky court in 2018, but Exantus   
   was found guilty on two counts of second-degree assault and one count of   
   fourth-degree assault for attacking the other members of the Tipton family   
   and was sentenced to 20 years in prison.

   He was arrested in Florida on Thursday in Marion County for allegedly   
   violating his parole by not registering as a convicted felon in the state   
   within 48 hours of arrival, according to arrest records. He had been in   
   the state for multiple days, according to police.   
      
   Exantus was originally sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2018, but was   
   released last week due to good behavior under a 2012 Kentucky state law   
   aimed at reducing recidivism by requiring periods of reentry for felons,   
   according to authorities.   
      
   In a post on X, Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier said state police   
   are working to extradite Exantus to Kentucky after his arrest.   
      
   At a press conference on Friday morning, Lieutenant Paul Bloom of the   
   Marion County Sheriff’s Office condemned Exantus' crimes and early   
   release.   
      
   "I get he was released from what my understanding on good behavior. Well,   
   I think the overwhelming evil behavior that he exhibited in killing this   
   child and trying to kill others in the same home, outweighs any good   
   behavior he could do in the next 400 years," Bloom said.   
      
   Florida Governor Ron DeSantis also decried the situation on X, saying it   
   was shocking that Exantus "was let out of prison in Kentucky after serving   
   a mere fraction of his sentence for murdering a six year old kid."   
      
   The White House is currently looking into Exantus' early release,   
   according to Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.   
      
   "I can confirm the White House is looking into this. It’s wholly   
   unacceptable for a child killer to walk free after just several years in   
   prison," Leavitt posted on X with a link to a news package about Exantus.   
      
   Exantus’ former attorney, Bridget Hofler, who no longer represents him,   
   said he suffered from schizophrenia and made strides to better himself   
   while incarcerated.   
      
   “It didn’t really surprise me, if anybody deserved to get out early, it   
   was Ron. He had accomplished so much while he was in prison,” Hofler told   
   WKYT before he was arrested again.   
      
   “The horrible thing about this is Ron did not intend to do any of this and   
   Ron was insane when it happened. But yet, Logan is still dead and those   
   children are still traumatized and they will be until the day they die,”   
   she added.   
      
   Another lawyer who used to represent Exantus also told ABC News that he   
   was released early because of work hours he completed in jail, self-   
   improvement programs he underwent and staying out of trouble. She worried   
   that the controversy surrounding Exantus' release could lead to   
   rehabilitation programs for inmates being rolled back.   
      
   Exantus was a licensed nurse at a dialysis clinic who was going to school   
   at night and studying hard for further nursing degrees, according to his   
   former attorney.   
      
   The Kentucky Parole Board, which oversees parole in the state, unanimously   
   voted for Exantus to stay in prison last week, but they were overruled by   
   the state statute that allowed him to leave, according to Beth Moore,   
   Director of Public Affairs for the Kentucky Department of Corrections.   
      
   "Every time it had the opportunity, the Parole Board recommended Ronald   
   Exantus stay in prison," Moore told ABC News. "Kentucky law required the   
   Department of Corrections to release the inmate on Mandatory Reentry   
   Supervision (KRS 439.3406) on Oct. 1 after accruing jail credits, good   
   time and education credits."   
      
   The members of the board have since received threats from the public,   
   according to Ladeidra N. Jones, the chair of the Kentucky Parole Board, in   
   a press release.   
      
   “Despite repeatedly voting for Ronald Exantus to remain in prison, Parole   
   Board members have faced significant threats over the last several days,   
   even having their personal addresses released publicly,” Jones said.   
      
   The threats against the parole board are being investigated by the   
   Kentucky State Police and the FBI, according to Kentucky Gov. Andy   
   Beshear.   
      
   "Remember, sharing accurate information is so important. We are urging   
   everyone to only share the facts around this case. At a time of increased   
   political violence around our country, these types of threats are taken   
   incredibly seriously, he said in a statement.   
      
   Exantus is currently incarcerated in a Marion County jail without bond.

   November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump.  We look   
   forward to America being great again.   
      
   We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that   
   stupid people won't be offended.   
      
   Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.   
      
   Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama   
   / Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.   
      
   Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the   
   The World According To Garp.  Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood   
   queer liberal democrat donors.
