US EditionKentucky man charged in child's death arrested in Marion County, deputies say
Ronald Exantus was arrested in Florida for failing to register as a convicted felon within 48 hours of moving, violating release conditions after early prison release.
- Thursday, Marion County deputies arrested Ronald Exantus, 42-year-old convicted felon, in Marion County, Florida, for failure to register; he was booked at 4:39 p.m. and held without bond.
- On Oct. 1, Kentucky's Department of Corrections released Exantus on mandatory re-entry supervision despite the Kentucky Parole Board voting to keep him in prison; his nonviolent classification made him eligible after serving less than half of his 20-year sentence.
- Found living next to Sunrise Elementary School and Horizon Academy in Marion Oaks, detectives from Marion County deployed around the residence as Paul Bloom said, `We don't want him here`.
- Prosecutors view the registration failure as a parole violation and are seeking extradition; Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier said `State officials are now working to send him back to Kentucky`.
- National attention has followed, with White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt saying the White House is looking into the case and Governor Andy Beshear confirming FBI involvement.
