Kansas man accused of child sex and drug crimes

By GLENN BRUNKOW Pottawatomie County farmer and rancher

Want to beat the Iowa State Cyclones when they come to town the end of November? If you bleed purple, I bet you do. This year you can personally be a part of that victory. Yes, the Wildcats might be a little short on the depth chart at linebacker, but I think most of our playing days are behind us. I have also volunteered to call plays in. Fortunately, our coaches are much too smart for that.

No, county Farm Bureaus, Farm Bureau Financial Services agents and Wildcat fans have the opportunity to work within their communities to gather food donations and participate in a friendly competition with other agents and county Farm Bureaus through the End Hunger Food Drive sponsored by Kansas Farm Bureau, Farm Bureau Financial Services and K-State athletics.

The food drive has already started and will run until Nov. 15, and everyone who participates will be a winner in my book. The counties and agents bringing in the most donations will receive tickets to the game along with other prizes.

All of the donations will go to local food pantries, helping our friends and neighbors in need. I am so proud of our organization for all the work we do to feed those who do not have enough. We all take great pride in growing our abundant, safe, healthy food supply and yet we also want to make sure that everyone has access to it, too.

We do need to get busy. You can view participating counties by going to www.kfb.org and search “End Hunger Food Drive” to find drop off locations or make a monetary donation. After Nov. 16 nonperishable food donations will be weighed to determine the winners. Each dollar will add a pound to the total.

So here is the game plan. Some of you go straight to the grocery store and pick up some extra boxes of macaroni and cheese or cans of green beans and some muffin mix, too. The rest of you go deep and open up your computer, go the webpage and donate.

I know not everyone is a Wildcat but even if you are a Jayhawk or a Shocker you should want to send the visitors home without a victory. It’s not just Cats versus Clones, it’s an opportunity to help our fellow Kansans. I expect an overwhelming victory.

For those of you from Iowa, please don’t take it too hard, we still like you, just not when you play against K-State. Well, that and we don’t like to lose. So here is to the competition, may the best team win! My prediction will be for a big score for our food pantries and that will be good for another Wildcat Victory.

What is your profession? I am a retired Navy Chief Petty Officer working toward my next career as a college student.

Are you an incumbent? No, I am not an incumbent.&nbsp; I am the only challenger to the four incumbents.

Give a brief bio on yourself in 100 words or less: I was born in Salina, KS, and attended school at Sunset and Grace Stewart Elementary schools and later South Junior and South High, where I graduated in 1992. I joined the Navy and served sixteen years at sea on five ships deploying nine times as well as being stationed overseas for thirteen years.&nbsp; I worked in Law Enforcement, Naval Security Forces, and Weapons Systems ultimately serving in senior Departmental and Command Leadership roles.&nbsp; Shortly after retirement, I returned to Salina to attend Kansas State Polytechnic’s Professional Pilot and UAS Engineering and Technology programs.

As a school board member, what specific initiatives or policies would you prioritize in order to improve educational outcomes and support the overall well-being of public school students in our community?

I believe we should prioritize combatting the growing absenteeism problem that has been trending in recent years by implementing some policy changes that support increased attendance.&nbsp; Secondly, I believe we need to create initiatives that will improve our academic scores and make USD 305 a top performer statewide, raising the standards, which will draw the highest quality teachers to the district.&nbsp; Next, I believe that it is imperative that we reduce the amount of distractions that have invaded our schools so that we can get back to focusing on the fundamentals that traditionally have been the foundation of education.&nbsp; We need to assess what justly serves the students and adheres to established guidelines and community values to achieve the desired outcomes we seek.

In recent years many books have been removed from the shelves of public libraries due to their alleged inappropriate content. As a school board member where do you stand on this issue?

I believe that the library curatorship is where the answer to this question lies.&nbsp; The public and school libraries need to be curated as such that they provide access to materials and resources that have academic value and adhere to moral and ethical standards.&nbsp; If the books or materials are of questionable nature or content, then they likely do not serve the students properly in the school or public environment, making it inappropriate and unethical curatorship.&nbsp; We should not provide minors access to these books and materials if they are inappropriate and unnecessary in the school or academic environment. &nbsp;&nbsp;

Parental engagement and community involvement are crucial for the success of any school district. What strategies would you implement to increase collaboration between parents, citizens, and educators?

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I agree that parental engagement and community involvement are crucial for the school district’s success, and I think a good way to help bring everyone together is by ensuring regular Parent Teacher Conferences, Open Houses, and Forums to suit the various levels of involvement.&nbsp; We need to ensure that the conversations go both ways and that adequate feedback is provided to assist in healthy communication.&nbsp; One of the biggest gripes that I have heard in recent years is the lack of healthy productive conversation that leads to the disenfranchisement of parents.&nbsp; It’s imperative that School Boards and School Faculty get this right because everyone is paying for it, but the kids are the ones who lose the most.

Please explain why you are running for School Board:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I’m running for School Board to contribute what I can to my community and our future.&nbsp; I am a product of this school district and have benefitted from many of the programs that it has provided such as Project Excel and Remedial Studies.&nbsp; I have a plethora of life experiences and extensive leadership and management skills that can be applied to help provide the necessary outlook and oversight to achieve mission success.&nbsp; Solid education will lead to a promising future.

Kansas couple accused of abuse involving 2 small children

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Natalee Holloway was beaten to death on a beach in Aruba and her body pushed out to sea after refusing the advances of the chief suspect in the 2005 killing, who admitted to the murder before pleading guilty Wednesday to extorting money from the missing teen’s mother.

Although Joran van der Sloot isn’t charged in Holloway’s death, his confession may finally resolve a case that has captivated the public’s attention for nearly two decades, spawning extensive news coverage, books, movies and podcasts.

“As far as I’m concerned, it’s over,” Beth Holloway, Natalee's mother, told reporters outside the federal courthouse in Alabama. “Joran van der Sloot is no longer the suspect in my daughter’s murder. He is a killer.”

Natalee Holloway went missing during a high school graduation trip with classmates. She&nbsp;<a href="https://apnews.com/article/timeline-peru-sloot-natalee-holloway-extradition-165b7745e8210488316da1be6d30d855">was last seen</a>&nbsp;on May 30, 2005, leaving a bar with van der Sloot, a Dutch citizen and student at an international school on the Caribbean island where he grew up. He was questioned in the disappearance but never prosecuted. A judge declared Holloway dead, but her body was never found.

Van der Sloot, now 36, pleaded guilty to the extortion and fraud charges in exchange for a 20-year sentence. That prison term will run concurrently with a 28-year sentence he's serving in Peru for&nbsp;<a href="https://apnews.com/article/business-crime-peru-alabama-birmingham-b61a4dfc829e429a942854d33b86cde5">killing Stephany Flores</a>&nbsp;in 2010.

U.S. Judge Anna Manasco said the details of his confession factored into her sentencing decision.

“You have brutally murdered — in separate instances years apart — two young women who refused your sexual advances,” she said.

Shackled and wearing an orange jail uniform, van der Sloot told the crowded courtroom he hoped the confession provides closure.

“I would like the chance to apologize to the Holloway family, my own family,” he said, later adding, “I am no longer the person I was back then.”

The judge said the plea deal required van der Sloot to provide all the information he knew about Natalie Holloway’s disappearance, allow her parents to hear in “real time” his discussion with law enforcement, and take a polygraph test.

After the hearing, Beth Holloway told reporters she was “absolutely confident” that they finally got the truth from van der Sloot after years of lies.

Court documents offer a transcript of his confession.

In an interview conducted by his attorney, he says he and Holloway were lying on the beach kissing. She started to resist, but he kept touching her, so she kneed him between the legs. He stood up and kicked her “extremely hard” in the face while she was still lying down.

At that point, he said, she was “unconscious, possibly even uh, even dead, but definitely unconscious.” He said he picked up a nearby cinderblock and brought it down on her face.

Frightened and unsure what to do, he said he dragged her body until he was knee-deep in the waves, then pushed her out to sea.

The Holloway family has long sought answers about the disappearance, and van der Sloot has given different accounts over the years, at one point saying Holloway was buried in gravel under the foundation of a house but later admitting that was untrue.

Five years after the killing, an FBI sting recorded the extortion attempt in which van der Sloot asked for $250,000 from Beth Holloway to reveal the location of her daughter’s remains. He agreed to accept $25,000 to disclose the location, and asked for the other $225,000 once the remains were recovered.

Van der Sloot chose “greed over Beth Holloway’s grief,” prosecutor Lloyd Peeples told the judge Wednesday.

Van der Sloot moved from Aruba to Peru before he could be arrested in the extortion case. The government of Peru agreed to&nbsp;<a href="https://apnews.com/article/natalee-holloway-van-der-sloot-arraignment-c69b0d1606980df065b954e94da9ac01">temporarily extradite</a>&nbsp;him to face trial on the extortion charge, and he will return to Peruvian custody after his case is concluded.

While giving her impact statement Wednesday, Beth Holloway turned to stare directly at her daughter's killer, sitting just a few feet away in court.

“You look like hell, Joran,” she said.

He stood up and kicked her “extremely hard” in the face while she was still lying down.At that point, he said, she was “unconscious, possibly even uh, even dead, but definitely unconscious.” He said he picked up a nearby cinderblock and brought it down on her face.Frightened and unsure what to do, he said he dragged her body until he was knee-deep in the waves, then pushed her out to sea.The Holloway family has long sought answers about the disappearance, and van der Sloot has given different accounts over the years, at one point saying Holloway was buried in gravel under the foundation of a house but later admitting that was untrue.Five years after the killing, an FBI sting recorded the extortion attempt in which van der Sloot asked for $250,000 from Beth Holloway to reveal the location of her daughter’s remains. He agreed to accept $25,000 to disclose the location, and asked for the other $225,000 once the remains were recovered.Van der Sloot chose “greed over Beth Holloway’s grief,” prosecutor Lloyd Peeples told the judge Wednesday.Van der Sloot moved from Aruba to Peru before he could be arrested in the extortion case. The government of Peru agreed to&nbsp;<a href="https://apnews.com/article/natalee-holloway-van-der-sloot-arraignment-c69b0d1606980df065b954e94da9ac01">temporarily extradite</a>&nbsp;him to face trial on the extortion charge, and he will return to Peruvian custody after his case is concluded.While giving her impact statement Wednesday, Beth Holloway turned to stare directly at her daughter's killer, sitting just a few feet away in court.“You look like hell, Joran,” she said.

Saline County Jail Activity, Oct. 18

During the month of Oct. the Salina Post will be publishing a series of profiles introducing the community to the six Salina City Commission candidates and school board member candidates for USD 306, USD 305, and USD 307.&nbsp;

What is your profession?Office manager for Kossow Clinic, Co-Founder of the School Marathon Program

Give a brief bio on yourself in 100 words or less:&nbsp;

My name is Dana Kossow, and I am asking for your vote for re-election to the USD 305 School Board. As a current School Board member, I have worked to ensure&nbsp;the district has held firm to our mission of being the&nbsp;best place to learn and work by embracing challenges, creating belonging, fostering pride, and inspiring hope. During the past four years, I have put time and energy into understanding the complexity of our school district. I would appreciate the opportunity to use the knowledge I have gained to continue positively impacting all Salina Public Schools.

As a school board member what specific initiatives or policies would you prioritize or improve educational outcomes and support the overall well-being of students in our community? Teacher/Staff retention is a major priority. The BOE and District Office Team have begun the work needed to address this problem, but there is still work to be done. One change initiated this year was to give student teachers a stipend. We know that teachers are more likely to stay where they student teach. Because of this change, we have increased student-teacher numbers in our buildings and attracted student-teachers from colleges that have traditionally not come to Salina to student-teach.&nbsp;6.In recent years many books have been removed from the shelves of public libraries due to their alleged inappropriate content. As a school board member where do you stand on this issue?&nbsp;&nbsp;I do not believe in book banning. USD 305 has policies that give the parents control over what their child has access to. Each school website has a library tab that gives library policies and parental oversight instructions. All parents are given the option of providing expressed permission before their student checks out any book.&nbsp; Parental engagement and community involvement are crucial for the success of any school district. What strategies would you implement to increase collaboration between parents and educators?&nbsp; &nbsp;In the past two years, I have seen incredible changes in how USD 305 creates community involvement and parental engagement. Superintendent Exline has inserted herself into the community with listening sessions in various locations. These sessions have been open to all parents and community members.&nbsp;Dr. Curtis Stevens, Director of Secondary Education, and his team have amplified USD 305's relationships with community businesses by creating the Building Bridges program. By inviting parents and community members into our schools, we are telling Salina that we are proud of our schools and want people to feel welcomed and invited to be part of the growth we hope to see with our new mission statement and strategic&nbsp;planning goals.&nbsp;

The deadline to register for the 2023 Election is Oct. 17 before 8 p.m.&nbsp;If you live outside of Saline County check with your local elections officer for election deadlines.<h2>Dana Kossow</h2><figure>

Saline County Jail Activity, Oct. 17

BARTON COUNTY —Law enforcement authorities are investigating a suspect on drug allegations.

Just after 8:30a.m. Monday,&nbsp;the Barton County Sheriff’s Office executed search warrants at two separate locations in the City of Great Bend, according to Sheriff Brian Bellendir. Sheriff’s deputies and detectives had been working for several weeks on a cocaine distribution investigation.

Warrants were served simultaneously in the 2200 block of Heizer Street and in the 1700 block of Washington Street. Sheriff’s officers located cocaine, currency, firearms and drug paraphernalia. The Sheriff’s Office requested the assistance of the Great Bend Fire Department to force entry into a safe. The firemen were successful and further evidence was found.

At the Heiser Street location, deputies arrested 31-year-old Fausto Hernandez, Junior of Great Bend and booked him on requested charges of distribution of cocaine and criminal use of a firearm. He’s being held in lieu of a $100,000 bond. Fausto Hernandez also had an outstanding warrant for attempting to flee and elude, which carries an additional $1,000 bond.

Evidence found at the scene implicates other individuals and further arrests are expected.
