Recommendation is that a man convicted in the 1995 murder of a Knoxville couple should not get parole.

David Scarbrough was one of three men charged in connection to the murder of Les and Carol Dotts, who were murdered inside their Knoxville home.   Yesterday (Tuesday), Board member Zane Duncan said his vote is to decline parole because of the seriousness of the offense and to continue correctional treatment for three years.

Throughout the hearing, Scarbrough maintained that he had nothing to do with the Dotts’ murder.

The Dotts daughter says she wasn’t convinced that Scarbrough deserved to get out of prison.  Scarbrough was sentenced to 60 years in prison.
