McGee Kidnapping Verdict Seen as National Warning
Federal Assistant Attorney General Joseph B. Keenan argued that the death penalty verdict for Walter McGee in the Mary McElroy kidnapping will deter gangsters nationwide. Keenan, present to aid the Missouri trial, said federal prosecutors will vigorously pursue kidnapping cases and cooperate with state authorities to seek maximum penalties. The comment followed the Jackson County jury verdict and reflected ongoing federal-state cooperation against kidnapping. Also in brief, former UC Fullback Rusty Gill plans a wrestling career after college, and the Marion golf course sees two robins killed by golfers. Harmony Gymnasium, an historic UC athletic site, will be razed for a new athletic plant.
