Jaeger case appealed as judges hear testimony in Lawrence
The Douglas County hearing room hosted a posttrial review of Jaeger, the nine year inmate from Ellsworth Facility, with defense attorney Iriganegaray arguing the evidence supported an unreasonable jury verdict. Judge Fairchild's handling of a juror replacement was questioned, Edmondson favored acquittal after recounting his bed rail experiment, and Biggs urged Jaeger serve full sentence while highlighting domestic violence issues. The panel will rule later, possibly sending the matter to the Kansas Supreme Court if needed.

Appeals panel weighs Kansas child solicitation case in Lawrence
A three judge panel of the Kansas Court of Appeals heard Tuesday in Lawrence a case where 51 year old Stephen R. Stout seeks to overturn a 2008 Douglas County jury conviction for aggravated indecent solicitation of a child. Prosecutors said he tried to lure a 13 year old girl into his car on December 20 2007. He argues the act was merely asking for the time. He is on parole in Arkansas and faces lifetime sex offender registration. Judges took the matter under advisement. In another note a 30 year old Lawrence man Stanley E Burleson pleaded guilty to two counts of child abuse for a July incident involving two boys ages 14 and 12. Burleson faced four counts of child abuse and one count of making a criminal threat. He faces sentencing at 10 a.m. on November date.
