Tuesday, March 19 the Wyoming Supreme Court affirmed the conviction of Wade Farrow for the December 2014 murder of Afton resident Tony Hansen.

Following the initial conviction of second degree murder, which occurred in September 2016, Farrow was sentenced to serve 35 to 65 years in prison.

Farrow appealed the ruling in both the District Court and the Wyoming Supreme  Court.

According to Lincoln County Attorney Spencer Allred, with the Supreme Court ruling this week, the case is officially “done and over.” Further appeals cannot be filed in the matter, he said.

“I’m truly happy for the Hansen Family,” Allred said. “They can finally get some closure in this.”
