4 arrested for condom hoax
The Associated Press
WICHTIA — Four people have been arrested on charges of felony theft and conspiracy to commit felony theft for putting condoms in cartons to defraud Steffen Dairy Foods Co., police said Saturday.
"Reports by four people of condoms in their milk were a hoax," Wichita Police Capt. John Dotson said. "There is no tampering of products at Steffen."
Police are still looking for one or more suspects, he said. None of the four arrested Friday was a Steffen employee, Dotson said. Two of the suspects worked together, but Dotson did not say where.
Steffen recalled about 10.000 quart and half-gallon cardboard milk cartons Wednesday after four customers reported finding unpackaged condoms in the milk.
Two of those arrested had settled last week with Steffen for an undisclosed amount of money. The other two had not received money from Steffen.
A 33-year-old man, charged with felony theft, remains in Sedgwick County Jail on $2,500 bond. A 21-year-old woman and a 21-year-old man, also charged with felony theft, are free on $1,500 bond. A 40-year-old man, charged with conspiracy to commit felony theft, is free on $2,500
Dotson said the incidents are related, but would not comment on any relationships among the suspects.
bond.
Steffen's General Manager Charles Burgess said the company was relieved that none of its employees was involved.
"We suspected they had done it themselves," he said. "We deliver milk into four states and all the incidences were in Wichita."
Hurgess said the company decided to settle with the customers so that the cases against them could be classified as felony theft if they were caught.
Mecham impeachment trial begins today
The Associated Press
PHOENIX, Ariz. — Fourteen months after he grasped his long-sought prize, the governorship of Arizona, Evan Mecham returns to the Capitol from exile today for a Senate impeachment trial that could end his political life.
In recent days, Mecham has battled to stop the trial, which starts today. He has said that his constitutional rights are being violated. He hired new lawyers who petitioned
senators and the state Supreme Court to halt the proceedings.
But the Senate would tolerate no delays, and the Supreme Court said it could not breach the separation of powers by interfering in a legislative matter.
"The people of this state should be as scared and frightened as all get out," Mecham, 63, said at a weekend news conference. "This isn't Ev Mecham's rights we're talking about. This is basic rights in the state of Arizona."
To convict Mecham, two-thirds of the senators must find that Mecham committed "high crimes, misdemeanors or malfeasance in office."
Mecham is charged with three misdeeds — concealing a $350,000 campaign loan, misusing $80,000 from the governor's protocol fund by loaning it to his car dealership and trying to thwart an investigation of an alleged death threat by a state official.
KPRS owner says station involved in payola scheme
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The owner of Kansas City FM radio station KPRS said a station employee acknowledged accepting payment from a record company for consultant work and that the employee's job was in ieopardy.
"I do not condone any announcer having a contract representing any record company," KPRS owner Mildred Carter said on Saturday. "I don't think you can serve two gods."
The station was mentioned Friday in federal grand jury indictments as having an employee who accepted cash in a payola scheme. The KPRS employee was not charged in the indictments.
Payola is the practice of giving or receiving payment for commercial advantage or special favors, such as disc jockeys accepting payment in return for playing certain records.
A federal grand jury in Los Angeles on Friday indicted four people on payola charges, including Bret Scattale, Scottsdale, Ariz., record promoter.
Craig and another record promoter allegedly paid nearly $300,000 to nine music programmers at KPRS and other stations across the country between 1980 and 1986.
The payments, which were not disclosed as required by federal law, allegedly were in exchange for the airing of records Craig was promoting for record companies.
