Overview

• Exantus, 42, was booked into the Marion County Jail with no bond after deputies determined he failed to register as a convicted felon within 48 hours as required by Florida law.
• Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier said state officials are coordinating with local prosecutors to return Exantus to Kentucky after his arrest on the warrant.
• Kentucky leaders emphasized the parole board unanimously voted to keep him incarcerated, and that his Oct. 1 release occurred under Mandatory Reentry Supervision triggered by statute and earned credits.
• Kentucky State Police and the FBI are investigating threats against parole-board members that officials attribute to misinformation about who authorized the release.
• A 2018 jury found Exantus not guilty of murder by reason of insanity but guilty, mentally ill, on assault charges tied to the 2015 killing of 6-year-old Logan Tipton, resulting in a 20-year sentence.
