Rippey pleaded guilty in 1993 to murder, criminal confinement resulting in serious bodily injury and arson, and was sentenced on June 2, 1993, to serve 50 years in prison and 10 more on probation "under a medium level of supervision." Probation officers will supervise her for five years. Steve Sutton, public information officer for the facility, said yesterday that Rippey is expected to leave the prison today by private transportation, wearing her personal clothing, and will have to report soon to probation officials in Jefferson County, Ind., where neighbors say Rippey's parents still live on the north side of Madison. Rippey has spent nearly half her life on the 15-acre grounds of the prison, which is about five miles from downtown Indianapolis, living in a dorm setting, earning a college degree - at public expense, some point out - and, according to the judge who reduced her sentence, making "significant progress toward reformation and rehabilitation." "Everybody changes, and she (Rippey) had made a very noticeable change." In about 1999, shortly before her death from cancer, Adams hired a lawyer for the express purpose of getting Rippey's sentence reduced - a goal accomplished in 2004, when a judge in South Bend, Ind., knocked 15 years off her sentence.Īdams thought Rippey's confinement "was a waste of a personable young woman," said Shirley Christensen, 73, another former prison volunteer and a close friend of Adams who now lives in Kansas City, Mo. It is, in fact, the realization of a vision of a long-time volunteer worker at the women's prison, Martha Adams, who was impressed by Rippey and her progress as an inmate. Yet others would say Rippey's release is sensible. "To me, it's a very small thing to ask," Vaught said. If Rippey is remorseful for pouring gasoline on her daughter, Vaught said, let her show it by completing her original sentence. "I do not accept this," she said yesterday of Rippey's release. Vaught is the mother of Shanda Renee Sharer, the 12-year-old Southern Indiana girl who in 1992 was beaten, stabbed and tortured for hours, and finally set afire while still alive along a dirt road outside of Madison, Ind., by a gang of four teenage girls, including Rippey, who was 15 at the time.Įven in that era before the 24-hour cable news obsession with horrific crime, the Sharer killing received considerable national attention.įor Vaught, Rippey's release calls up "a devil" - the overwhelming anger that she said she has tried to keep at bay for more than 14 years.
