Is there a greater penalty for crossing state lines?

FOX has put the ‘breaking news’ banner up again. The edits were flying when I clicked on, changing before my eyes.

"Is there a greater penalty for crossing state lines?"

There can be additional (Federal) charges bought against him.

There’s an Overland Park, Alabama and that’s where this guy is listed at.

[Mr. Jazzy]

Very sad news.

I want the criminal gutted!

[tobyhill]

Don’t count on Kansas anymore with that weird Governor.

[Froufrou]

And additional charges, I hope?

People often change the state on myspace just to be silly. He lives in Overland Park, Kansas.

swift justice for the monster who did this.

Her Father is a cop, and was wearing a S.W.A.T. t-shirt sunday night when interviewed.....if the creep resists just a little bit when they find him.....cops take care of their own, and regard this girl as their own.

I pray that you are correct.

Identity is confirmed in the local t.v. update. Chief of police will announce at 4:00 p.m. after notification of the parents.

Good to see you, Vn. (((hugs)))

Re: Both states have the death penalty. Fry him twoice.

Naw! Save the states some money... just send him down here to Texas to steal my car...

Yes. From what I understand, and what I've established, he could conceivably be tried for crimes in a KS court, a MO court and a Federal Court. (i.e., the respective states would not have jurisdiction over, or be able to charge for any crimes which involved interstate travel/flight or even conceivably any interstate communications he may have made prior to, or after the crime.)

I just hope the dirtbag responsible gets his nuts cut off and stuffed down his throat. I really don't care which jurisdiction takes care of it.

bttt

geez, the zapruder film and the music are enough to drive anyone nuts.

[freekitty]

It says later Kansas

[tobyhill]

Police know who he is and since he has a long criminal history I’m sure they’ll post the mug soon but I wouldn’t want to speculate on that guy even though I can’t stand his taste of music.

I really don't care which jurisdiction takes care of it.

I'm with you!
