Topeka Police Probe in King Death Case
Lawrence Police join Topeka police and the Kansas Bureau of Investigation in examining Floyd King Jr. death after he arrived at Lawrence Memorial Hospital in a semi comatose state. King, 32, of 1513 West 22nd Terrace, was connected to a larger case involving Jan and Eben Carpenter charged with first degree murder in Willis Upshaw’s death. An autopsy and lab tests are planned to rule out poison or drugs, with results due in several days. County Attorney Mike Elwell urged treating the case as if not natural causes due to its link to the Carpenter investigation.
