OSSIPEE — A Carroll County Superior Court judge ruled an elderly jail inmate  incarcerated on domestic violence convictions may serve his sentence from home since the jail superintendent doubts he can keep him safe from COVID-19.

Terrance Perkins, 73, was found guilty Oct. 23, 2019, of two felony charges related to using a gun to threaten his wife, Yvonne Perkins, and minor grandchild in Tamworth in a 2016 incident.
