Brownback speaks at Topeka religious event draw sparks
Gov. Sam Brownback addressed a weekend religious event in Topeka drawing criticism from church separation activists. Organizers claimed the Reign-Down USA broadcast reached about 25 million people with no public funds used. Brownback cited cancer in 1995 and ended with prayers for forgiveness. Americans United for Separation of Church and State urged that he is governor, not state pastor-in-chief. The same report notes a separate Wichita case where Petra Garcia-Martinez was sentenced to a year in prison for perjury and making a false statement to federal investigators during a grand jury probe.
