Pardon Push Over Rosalia Man Darkens Kansas Debate
Kansas Attorney General Robert Stephan urges Governor Carlin to grant clemency for William S. Johnson of Rosalia who was convicted on aggravated assault and criminal damage to property after firing at two intruders protecting his salvaged autos. Stephan calls it a miscarriage of justice under a firearms sentence law and Johnson’s case stays before the state Supreme Court. Carlin’s office says a pardon cannot be considered without proper petition and court review, noting differing views on justice reform and that Steiner is pending. Johnson’s wife-run cafe in Butler County area attended by his family, five children ages 11 to 17.
