(LEX 18) — The Kentucky Parole Board ruled has ruled to keep Ronald Exantus incarcerated and revoked his mandatory reentry supervision after he admitted to violating conditions of his release earlier this week.
Exantus was found guilty in 2018 of two counts of second-degree assault and one account of fourth-degree assault after attacking members of the Tipton family after entering their home. He was found not guilty by reason of insanity for killing 6-year-old Logan Tipton.

"He was arrested in Marion County, Florida, on Oct. 12 for failing to register as a convicted felon, as outlined in his supervision conditions."
