1968 Murder Suspect Heading Back To Michigan
A convicted killer is being extradited to Michigan from Ohio to face a first-degree murder charge in a woman's death from four decades ago.
Oakland County sheriff's deputies headed south on Monday to pick up 67-year-old Nolan Ray George, who is suspected in the slaying of a Pontiac woman in 1968.
George was ordered extradited to Michigan by a judge in Butler County, Ohio, on a first-degree murder warrant in the death of 22-year-old Gwendolyn Perry. George had been fighting the extradition since last month when he was arrested in Ohio. He is expected to be arraigned this week in Perry's death.
George has served prison time in Michigan and Ohio in the deaths of two women.
George's attorney, Jacob Long, says it's unfair to prosecute his client in a case so old.
