Arrest Made in West Paducah Murder

By Shelly Baskin

Paducah, KY – The McCracken County Sheriff's Department says they've arrested and charged a man with the murder of Teresa Bolden of West Paducah. 66-year old Bolden has received media coverage recently for her fight to keep the county from condemning her ramshackle home. Sheriff Jon Hayden says Ronald Lynn is charged with first-degree murder in Bolden's death. She was found with severe head and face injuries in her front yard by a passing driver and was flown to Vanderbilt Medical Center where she later died. Lynn is in the McCracken County jail and also faces charges of first-degree robbery and tampering with evidence.
