KANSAS CITY AP reports a federal grand jury recessed, signaling no indictment for former Gov. Warren Hearnes over 1968 income tax returns as the statute nears expiration. Hearnes maintains innocence, credits the judicial process, and says the probe focused on banking state funds and political contributions rather than personal profit.
