Kansas man convicted of killing 4 gets death sentence

Updated 2:29 pm, Wednesday, May 18, 2016

OTTAWA, Kan. (AP) — A judge sentenced a man to death on Wednesday for the killing of two men, a woman and her 18-month-old daughter on an eastern Kansas farm three years ago.

Victims' relatives applauded when Franklin County District Judge Eric Godderz said he would follow the recommended sentence from the jury that convicted Kyle Flack earlier this year. Flack is now among 10 inmates on death row in Kansas, which hasn't executed an inmate since the state reinstated capital punishment in 1994.

Flack was convicted of capital murder in the deaths of Kaylie Bailey, 21, and her daughter, Lana. He also was convicted in the deaths of Bailey's boyfriend, 31-year-old Andrew Stout, and his roommate, 31-year-old Steven White, who lived in a rural farmhouse where Flack sometimes stayed in Ottawa, about 50 miles southwest of Kansas City.

. . .

Investigators said Flack told detectives that two drug dealers may have been involved, but detectives determined those people didn't exist. Authorities also said that before detectives ended an interview with Flack when he asked for an attorney, Flack indicated that Stout killed White during a dispute over rent.

that the last manufacturer of the necessary drug has stopped selling to Dept of Corrections in death penalty states. So, I'm guessing, what?... firing squad?.... hanging?
