Myers’ attorneys plan to appeal

INDIANAPOLIS – Oral arguments are set for next month in the appeal of a man convicted of murdering a 19-year-old IU student.\nThe three-member Indiana Court of Appeals has set the case for March 20 in Indianapolis.\nJohn Myers II was convicted in 2006 of murdering Jill Behrman, who disappeared in 2000 while cycling. Her remains were found in April 2003.\nThe appeal filed in September argues that jurors misbehaved and that pretrial publicity tainted the trial.\nIt also questions whether a forensic pathologist’s opinion that Behrman had been raped, even though there was no evidence of sexual assault, should have been admitted.\nMyers is serving a 65-\nyear sentence.
