In 1975, a neighbor of the Skakels', 15-year-old Martha Moxley, was beaten to death with a golf club later identified as belonging to a set the Skakel family owned.

Michael Skakel was convicted last year and sentenced to 20 years to life in prison.

Michael Skakel was "convicted". Not "convicted of murder" or "convicted of the Moxley murder" or "the convicted killer of Marth Moxley".

Is it just me or is the AP doing all that it can to distance Skakel from the murder that he did and a jury convicted him of?
