Escapees captured
Police captured a former Lawrence resident Sunday afternoon, less than eight hours after his escape with six other inmates from the Kansas State Penitentiary at Lansing.
Terry Lee McClain, 31, had been serving time since 1975 for convictions of first-degree murder and aggravated robbery in the murder of a woman, a Seven-Eleven store regional supervisor and Lawrence resident.
McClain had been employed by Seven-Eleven stores in the area, including ones in Lawrence.
Police arrested McClain on foot in woods about one mile west of the Bonner Springs interchange of the Kansas Turnip.
Several hours later in western Wyandotte County, Marvin Thorton and Larry Miller, two other students, apprehended. Thornton and Miller has been serving sentences for theft and prison escape convictions.
Four other convicts are still at
large and 150 officers from the Kansas and Missouri Highway Patrols, Leavenworth and Wyandotte county sheriff's departments and area police departments continue the two-state manhunt.
Officials said they would concentrate on the escapees' home regions, near Wichita and St. Louis.
The escapes stole a guard's uniform and duped another guard into giving them a key to a prison tower, said Moppin. Once in the tower, he grabbed a 30-caliber revolver, a 30-rifle and a supply of ammunition.
Police said the escapees tied up the guard in the tower and then scaled a 10-foot fence and fled into a residential area before spitting up.
Both groups apparently traveled south toward Kansas City, Kan. After a shootout with a Bonner defended the escapees fled into a wooded area.
Sgt. Doug Cansler, 34, of the Bonner Springs police, was shot four times and was in good condition
GSP-Corbin visitors face security screen
By JANICE GUNN Staff Reporter
When it comes to having male visitors, some women who live at GSP-Corbin Hall feel like they still are living at home.
"If you come in late, it's like your mom is standing there waiting for you," said Teri Row, an Ottawa freshman living in GSP. "It's like men have to go through the third degree to come and see you."
The hall, which has the strictest visitation rules of any KU residence hall, allows the women to have male guests in their rooms during the week only on Wednesday from 6 p.m. to midnight.
ON WEEKENDS, GSP-Corbin allows men on the floors from noon on Friday until midnight on Sunday. But, before a man is allowed to be in a room, he must sign in at a security desk and report the time he arrives and the time he leaves.
The problem for many of the women in when men come over outside of the house is to avoid getting sick.
Some of the women say that the lobbies offer no privacy and that to study or to carry on a private conversation is next to impossible.
to sit in the lobby areas, where are allowed any time with an escort.
OTHER WOMEN at GSP-Corbin were upset with the visitation rules and the sign-in for men at the security desk.
"The rules are detrimental when you just want to have someone come over, but think what really makes me mad is that I don't know Kristin Mueller, a freshman at Corbin.
"We have to put what time they come in and what time they come out and it's quite a pain," Mueller said.
But some women consider the weeknight that men are not allowed to be on the floors a luxury.
"I enjoy the privilege of running do the hall in my bath," said Nana Corbin of Chicago freshman and Corbin prisoner. "I have my privacy on the weekends."
THE VISTATION rules for any residence hall can be changed, however, if a majority of the people in a hall vote for a change, said Fred
McElhenee, director of the office of residential programs.
Each year when the Association of University Residence Halls have negotiated the hall contracts with the housing directors, the women have displayed a lack of interest in a change at GSP-Corbin, McEhlenie said.
"I guess the girls don't want to give up running around in their underwear for a year," said Chris Schnelder, AURH secretary.
the composition of our halls, it seemed we were reaching a point where everything was the same, but not all students are the same, $^2$ he said.
McELHENIE SAID some halls were set up with restrictive hours to offer a variety of living circumstances to new students.
"A few years back, as we looked at
He said that they consciously decided some halls would be for women and some would have more restrictive hours than others. The contract gave each student the option whether to live with strict visitation rules, he said.
Scheinler said students made several attempts to change the visitation rules at GSP-Corbin in the past, but he said that he has mainly filled with freshmen, women and only lived there one year and were apathetic about voting for a change.
