(AP) – More than four months after being charged in the killings
of two people at a Lake Ozark RV park, the suspect has been appointed an
attorney.Television stations KRCG and KMIZ report that Gary Sweet’s attorney is public defender Brendan McGregor. McGregor filed an entry of appearance as Sweet’s attorney Monday.

Sweet was one of hundreds of cases listed in the area public defender’s
caseload conference in Miller County after the office’s attorneys were
overloaded with cases. A request by District Defender Justin Carver for caseload relief is being considered.

Sweet is charged with two counts of first-degree murder, assault and other
counts in the shooting that killed Sheri and James Parker and injured another.

Authorities say Sweet had been evicted from the park.
