Attorneys from the KU Project for Innocence and Midwest Innocence Project filed a Tuesday motion in Jefferson County to vacate Floyd Bledsoe's life sentence for the 1999 Altmann murder. The 38 year old was convicted in 2000 after a three day trial with minimal physical evidence and new DNA testing this year linked the Bledsoe family to the crime scene. The motion seeks a new hearing to present evidence and potential exoneration, with KU students and professors involved in the investigation and appeals.
Kansas lawmakers challenge KU financing for the 325 million Central District Development Plan.

Hutton questions oversight and prior use of such financing, noting concerns about pumping funds into infrastructure without direct legislative review. Theresa Gordzica defends the structure as shielding the university and state from bond liability.
