Lima police detectives say that on January 16th, they were called out to the Imperial Inn for reports of a shooting. There they found Cory Adkins with a single gunshot wound. Hardy then turned himself in shortly afterward.

"I am sorry for what I did, and that's...even though I was going through that emotional state it still didn't give me the right to do what I did, you know? For that, I take responsibility for it and I am truly sorry," stated Antrea Hardy, defendant.

Three years of Hardy's sentence are mandatory.
