Kansas law dean helped craft predator statute
Kansas University School of Law Dean Stephen McAllister helped shape the state predator law after the 1996 ruling. The measure, upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1997 and 2000, allows committing dangerous sexual offenders to Larned after prison. About 95 predators have been committed since passage. 68 inmates are housed at Larned currently. Bornemeier, found to suffer seven personality disorders, was deemed a particularly dangerous individual with a high risk of reoffending and linked to multiple alleged victims and incidents in several towns.
