The Kansas Parole Board denied parole for Lorna Anderson for five years after noting the premeditated nature of her 1983 murder plot with former minister Thomas Bird. Sueanne Hobson was denied further parole until 2003 for the 1980 shotgun death of her stepson, while Donald Houghton faces no parole until November 2010 for the 1982 Christmas Eve killings of his estranged wife and sister-in-law. Bird's parole request is under review with a written prison report pending. The board flagged the aggravated crime and strong opposition to Houghton's early release.
Former priest Robert K. Larson, 70, pleaded innocent in Harvey County District Court to four counts of indecent liberties with a child and one count of sexual battery. The charges arise from alleged abuse of altar boys at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Newton during the 1980s. Larson, who served 30 years in the Diocese of Wichita and is now in Ohio, was stripped of duties in 1988 and sent to Maryland for treatment. His attorney said he will fight the charges amid questions over the statute of limitations.
