FILE - This is an undated booking photo provided by the George County Regional Correctional Facility of Christopher Lee Baxter, who along with Brandy Nicole Williams, was arrested early Thursday, July 22, 2010 in the death of George County Sheriff Garry Welford. Baxter is appealing his conviction in the 2010 death Welford, citing what he claims was an involuntary confession and a lack of evidence that he was driving the truck that struck and killed Welford. Lawyers for Baxter, 28, will present his argument to the State Court of Appeals on Jan. 28 in Jackson. The booking photo is from an earlier incarceration.
