Feds arrest man who received controversial pardon from Matt Bevin in slaying

Patrick Baker, a Kentucky man whom then-Gov. Matt Bevin controversially pardoned in late 2019, was arrested by federal authorities Sunday and now may once again face charges in connection with the 2014 death of Donald Mills in Knox County.

The U.S. Marshals Service arrested Baker, 43, on Sunday, and he was booked into the Laurel County Correctional Center in London just after 12:15 a.m. Monday, with the jail log listing his only charge as “federal prisoner held-in transit/court/serveout.”

But Mills’ sister, Melinda Mills, told The Courier Journal a federal agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives contacted her Monday morning to say that Baker was arrested again in connection with her brother’s death.
