PRESTONSBURG, Ky. (WMDJ) — The father of a man charged in connection with the Amber Spradlin murder case is asking the court to remove a condition of his release that keeps him on home incarceration.

Attorneys for Dr. Michael K. McKinney filed the motion Thursday, asking the court to end the home incarceration and electronic monitoring requirement tied to his bond.

McKinney has been charged with multiple counts of evidence tampering in connection to Spradlin's death. Court records show he remains free on a $250,000 full cash bond.

In the filing, McKinney’s attorneys argued he has complied with all conditions of his release, has appeared for required court proceedings and has not committed any violations while out on bond.

The motion argues the current restrictions make it more difficult for McKinney to meet with attorneys and assist in preparing his defense.

The filing asks the court to modify the terms of his release and remove the home incarceration requirement while keeping the remaining bond conditions in place.

As of Thursday afternoon, there has been no ruling to this request.
