Supreme Court weighs warehousing claim in sex predator case
Kansas Supreme Court heard oral arguments over whether Todd Ellison’s four and a half years in jail before a trial on commitment to a sexually violent predator program violated due process. The case tests pretrial detention limits under a 1994 law that allows commitment for treatment at Larned State Hospital, a program with few releases. Ellison’s attorney argued his rights were violated by lengthy delays and procedural holes, while prosecutors stressed factual and timing issues.
