 SHEPHERDSVILLE - Bullitt County Attorney Monica Robinson had questions.

So did Bullitt County Sheriff David Greenwell.

To seek the answers, Robinson filed a motion to intervene into the case.

But when all the questions were answered in the final order by Circuit Judge Rodney Burress, Robinson said there is no longer a reason for the parties to intervene.

The case involving Misty Thompson drew media attention as the defendant was released without entering the county’s home incarceration program on Oct. 24.
