Judge allows evidence of alternate suspect in 1986 murder trial

GREEN BAY (WLUK) – Lou Griffin’s defense team will be allowed to present evidence Lisa Holstead’s boyfriend was instead responsible for her 1986 murder, a judge

fox11online.com

Sept. 2, 2022
GREEN BAY (WLUK) – Lou Griffin’s defense team will be allowed to present evidence Lisa Holstead’s boyfriend was instead responsible for her 1986 murder, a judge ruled Friday.
[.....]
In Wisconsin, defense teams are required to get permission before trial before introducing evidence to the jury specifically point at someone else as the culprit. After reviewing arguments from both sides, Judge Timothy Hinkfuss said Friday the evidence will be allowed.

FOX 11 is not naming the alternate suspect because he has not been charged.

The week-long trial is scheduled to start with jury selection on Jan. 27.

Man convicted in 1986 killing of Lisa Holstead in Green Bay

Lou Griffin, 67, appeared in Brown County Court Friday to enter a plea in the death of Lisa Holstead.

Jan. 27, 2023

GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) - A man has reached a plea agreement with prosecutors in the 1986 killing of a woman in Green Bay.

Lou Griffin, 67, appeared in Brown County Court Friday to enter a plea in the death of Lisa Holstead. The case was once considered the longest-unsolved murder in Green Bay.

On Friday, Griffin pleaded “no contest” to a charge of Homicide by Reckless Conduct. The court found him guilty.

Griffin was originally charged with 1st Degree Intentional Homicide, a higher class of felony than the reckless conduct charge.

Sentencing is scheduled for March 27.
