GARDEN CITY. – The Kansas Supreme Court will hear three cases on Tuesday during a special session at Garden City High School including arguments for a man convicted in the murder of a Hutchinson woman, according to a Kansas Judicial Branch media release.

Charles Christopher Logsdon is appealing his conviction for first-degree murder and other charges in the shooting death of Jennifer Heckel.

He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for 50 years.

Questions before the court are whether there was sufficient evidence presented at trial to convict him, and whether the district court committed errors when it denied his motion for mistrial, when it imposed a hard-50 sentence, and when it instructed the jury on the law regarding aiding and abetting.

Logsdon is believed to be the shooter of Heckel. She was shot three times in her home on June 14, 2011, including in the head and back while her young son listened to her being killed in another room.

The state contends the murder was a case of mistaken identity and that the suspects intended to rob Kayla Salyer-Rodriquez but ended up at the wrong house.

The Supreme Court session in Garden City High is scheduled for Tuesday evening.
