Jurors to Decide Fate of Greenlease Kidnappers in Death Case
Federal Judge Albert L. Reeves sets the plan for the trial of Carl Hall and Bonnie Heady in the Greenlease kidnapping. A 125 member jury pool will be chosen, with up to 52 challenges. The pair pleaded guilty to federal kidnapping charges and face possible death sentences if found by the jury, while Reeves retains authority to set prison terms if the death penalty is rejected. The court noted insanity pleas are no longer in play. The investigation follows the ransom and murder of 6 year old Bobby Greenlease in Missouri and Kansas.
