WASHINGTON (WPXI) – The United States Supreme Court rejected an appeal by a man convicted and sentenced for a murder in January 2012. Jordan Clemons was sentenced to death by a Washington County jury for killing his then-girlfriend, Karissa Kunco. Prosecutors said he slit the woman’s throat so deeply the knife hit her spine. Her body was found in the woods and her car was found 7 miles away from the crime scene. It was full of blood and still running. The Washington County District Attorney said this ends Clemons’ direct appeal process.
