Did the retrial occur?

Might be useful to have an "Aftermath" section indicating what happened to Blueford following the Supreme Court's decision. Did he face retrial, and if so, what was the verdict? 2601:644:1:B7CB:D4C2:4BF9:ABEF:FEE2 (talk) 06:04, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I considered that, since it's easy enough to look up court records from the Arkansas online system, but I thought WP:BLP concerns, coupled with the fact that I could find no independent, secondary sources to cite to, overrode whatever value there was in mentioning the outcome of the case.
