Relents A Bit In Hunger Strike In Kansas Prison
In Lansing Kansas a hunger strike by Perry Edward Smith prisoner under death sentence eases as milk and eggs are allowed. Warden Tracy Hand says Smith, 31, says he is in constant communication with the Lord and the attendants’ message persuaded him to drink liquids. Smith now swallows four glasses daily with an attendant holding the cup. Smith and Richard Hickock, both convicted of killing the Clutter family, were sentenced to hang and are appealing to the State Supreme Court. Smith’s weight fell from 163 to 126 pounds over 35 days of starvation.
