Carlin Docking ticket not definite Holt says
In Topeka former Democratic state Rep Nim Holt said Gov John Carlin has not decided to pick Tom Docking as his lieutenant governor running mate. Holt met Carlin after media speculation that Docking aims for the No 2 spot and said Carlin would inform him if a decision is made. Chaney supports Holt and warns Docking could alienate party factions while Docking’s youth could fail to energize Wichita unions.

Judge dismisses case of attempted conspiracy in murder plot
In CLATHE Kansas Judge Robert Jones ruled Robbie Sexton Jr., Gardner, did not commit a crime by offering to pay an undercover agent to murder his wife Nancy. Kansas law defines conspiracy as two or more agreeing to commit a crime, so solicitation alone is not illegal. Sexton remains jailed on unrelated marijuana possession auto theft and probation charges.
