(LOUISVILLE) -- Mel Ignatow was released from state prison Friday. A jury acquitted Ignatow of killing his fiancee in 1988, but he later admitted to the killing her after police found evidence inside his home. WAVE 3's Frances Kuo has reaction from those close to the case.

Eighteen years have not helped heal the wounds of family and friends of Brenda Sue Schaefer, who Ignatow admitted killing even after he was tried and acquitted for it.

On Dec. 1, 2006, those wounds were reopened. It came as a shock to Jim Wesley, the lead investigator in the murder of 36-year-old Brenda Sue Schaefer in 1988. Wesley says he was always convinced that Ignatow was guilty.

...

Ignatow got out early because he earned more than four years of credit for good behavior, educational training, and work time while in prison.

He can travel and live anywhere he wants. He claimed to have found a relationship with God while in prison ( :puke: ) and wants to contribute to society/the community. :puke: :puke:

I hope he contracts a horribly debilitating and extremely painful disease.

1. And there was probably someone in his block...

...who was busted with a little bit of grass and is still sitting there today.

I bet we will hear about this guy in the future.

3. Unbelievable

so many claim to have "found God". It must really help in their parole hearings.

Once a psychopath, always a pyschopath I say. We will hear about him again. I am sure.
