Zoning Appeals Clash Over Wal-Mart Permit Plan
The zoning panel bypassed its own board to permit a restaurant on the site tied to a 132000 square foot Wal-Mart project. City officials say Wal-Mart is a department store prohibited at the site. GWak argues for a variety store classification to clear the way. The commission previously classified Wal-Mart as a department store before a campaign shift. The board chair and members urged restraint, noting potential lawsuits and political overtones as the case returns to court on July 17.

Kansas official cites evidence error in Belt rape case
KBI director calls the evidence mix up a temporary aberration linked to a second suspect as Belt faces no rape charges from that error. Attorney General Phill Kline ordered an outside audit of lab procedures and a review of current files to restore public trust while the lab prepares for reaccreditation. The Belt case ties to seven rapes alleged between 1989 and 1994 and a 1992 attack, with Belt already convicted on theft burglary and drug charges. The lab backlog and unfinished DNA processing remain sources of concern.
