Kentucky State Police have arrested 68-year-old Willie G. Holsapple of Paducah on a warrant issued in McCracken County. 

Holsapple was taken into custody in Lyon County on Tuesday just after 10:30 am. The warrant was signed on Monday, with a charge of contempt of court, stating “defendant to show cause why his bond should not be revoked”.

On Sunday, at approximately 10:00 am, Troopers stopped a truck being driven by Holsapple on Highway 93 in Lyon County because Holsapple was not wearing his seatbelt.  During the course of the traffic stop, Troopers also discovered Holsapple’s driver’s license was suspended. 

At the time of the traffic violations, Holsapple was out on bond for the McCracken Circuit Court charges of second degree manslaughter and unsworn falsification to authorities. Holsapple was arrested in March on a Grand Jury Indictment for these charges following the McCracken County Sheriff Department’s investigation into the death of former McCracken County Judge Executive Van Newberry in October of 2016.

Holsapple was lodged in the McCracken County Jail.
