Abstract
Plaintiff seeks to admit evidence of the Durkin homicide beyond what has already been offered for two purposes: primarily, Plaintiff contends that there are sufficient similarities between the Durkin and Sheppard homicides to cause the Durkin homicide to be admissible as proof of Richard Eberling' s identity as the killer of Mrs. Sheppard. For the reasons set forth below, the State of Oho's motion in limine to limit further evidence of the Durkin homicide is GRANTED.
