&Ian arrested in KU student s

death found dead iii N.J. jail

25-year-old grad

student from Hays

discovered dead at

suspects apartment

LAWRENCE (AP) A man

suspected of killing a University

of Kansas law student kfflº

Tliihself fi being arrested in

New Jersey, police say.

Adolfo Garcia-Nunez, 46,

was arrested in Elizabeth, N.J.,

on Friday night, after police

found his unoccupied pickup

in that same town, Lawrence

police Sgt. Paul A. Fellers said

in a news release Saturday

afternoon. Garcia-Nunez took

his own life while he was in

custody in New J Fellers

said.

Garcia-Nunez was suspected

of killing Jana Mackey, 25,

of Hays, who was found dead

at Garcia-Nunez s Lawrence

home on Thursday, hours after

a friend reported her missing. A

second-degree murder warrant

had been issued for his arrest.

Mackey and Garcia-Nunez,

an artist who also went by the

name Fito Garche, had recently

ended a relationship.

No additional information

about Garcia-Nunez s death or

arrest will be available until the

Lawrence Police Department s

investigators return from New

Jersey, Fellers said.

According to the Kansas

Department of Corrections, Garcia-Nun was sentenced in

November 4OO5 for aggravated

assault, aggravated battery and

making a false writing. He was

paroled the following August.

But Gary Likes, who lived

across the street from GarciaNunez,

was surprised when

his neighbor s name came up

in connection with Mackey s

death.

I saw no signs of this guy

being capable of this, Likes

said. He kept to himself and

was very protective of the people

around him. He was a very

good neighbor.

Those who knew Mackey said she had been a devoted

advocate for women s rights.

It appea now she s been

the ultimate victim, said Sylvie

Rueff, worked with

Mackey in the National Organization

for Women, where the

second-year law student was

dedicated to reducing violence

again women. I really

could not believe she got killed

because she was just such a

remarkable woman.

Sarah Ja Russell, executive

directOr of the GaDuGi Safe Centei said Mackey had

worked as volunteer advocate

for the noi organization,

which helps victims of sexual

assault. She was still on the

list of advocates but was on

hiatus during law school, Russell

said.

I an advocate takes a

heart, and it takes being honey

on steel, and she had that, Russell

said.

Beth Catefons, supervising

attorney for the university s

Paul E. Wilson Defender Project,

where Mackey was enrolled

for the summer, said Mackey

was vibrant and had a great

sense of humor.

She was a pleasure, Cateforis

said. I always looked forward

to walking into class and

seeing her smile and hearing

what she had to say or hearing

her big laugh.

In her work with the defender

project, Mackey represented

federal prisoners in appellate

and post-conviction litigation in

state and federal courts.

Mackey also was a singer and

actress, receiving honors as an

undergraduate for her theater

performances.

L students take national FBLA

By TIM LINN TIMES STAFF WRITER

Hal Laurence was

happy to get one more

shot at winning a

national title at this

year s Future Business

Leaders of America

competition in Atlanta,

Ga.

Thankfully, not only

did Laurence, a recent

graduate of Lansing

High School,

participate in the

business ethics contest

with his partner Nick

Novak, but the team

won first place.

After a fourth-place

finish at last year s

national contest,

Laurence said he was not

expecting to do as well

as he did.

At state, I expected

to do well enough to go

to nationals, he said.

After their test,

Laurence said he and

Novak had different

ideas on how they had

performed.

I felt about the same

as I did after last year s

finals, so I thought we

might have gotten fourth

place, he said. And

Nick s like No, we

won. ,,

After speaking to

several observers, the

tide shifted, with

Laurence believing the

team had taken the top

spot and his partner

thinking they had come

up short.

It wasn t until the

awards ceremony, when

every other team

received their awards,

that Laurence said he

realized his team had

taken first place.

Sue Lednicky, FBLA advisor at LHS, said

the announcement took

her by surprise, too.

When they

announced second

place, I screamed and fell on the f1oor she

said.

The team competed in

the business ethics

competition. In the

contest, Laurence said

each team is composed

of either two or three

competitors

who are It s a presented with

an ethical a sc

problem from

the business

world. The

team is then sent to a

room to decide on a

solution to the problem

together.

Laurence said it is

important for each team

to come up with as

realistic a solution as

possible. After

developing a solution,

the team defends their

decision before a panel

of two or three judges.

Laurence said his

background in ethics and he and Novak s

background in public

speaking helped them in

the contest.

The team also

studied to make sure their

iartand viewof

,, ethics and

ience. business law

were la/Laurence

accurate.

You have

to know what businesses

do when they handle problems, he said.

Balancing the

duration in which each

speaker addresses the

panel of judges is

another aspect of the

competition that

Laurence said helped his

team.

It s an art and a

science, he said.

Though Laurence will

move on to college,

studying engineering at

the Universit of Kansas,

Novak will comp e

again next year.

Lednicky said the

FBLA at LHS is

relatively new, at only

four-and-a-half years

old.

She said the group

currently has 20 active

members, and she is

looking for more.

Laurence said

participating in FBLA has been valuable for

him, providing him with

important experience for

the business world. He

also thanked his family

and friends for their

support.

It s an art and

a scienc&

We Weather brings invasion of ants, termites

Associated Press

TOPEKA Mild weather allowed marginal ant and termite

colonies to survive the winter,

and persistent rainfall into

the summer is helping them survive

and invade homes in bigger

numbers than in the past,

experts say.

In Topeka, reports of ant infestations

are up 10 percent to 15

percent, while termite infestations

are up almost 50 percent

from previous years, local exterminators

said.

1t would be my assumption that because we had a wet winter

that wasn t too cold and we ve

had a long, wet spring, most

insects are able to reproduce

and live better, said Zachary

Falin, collection manager with

the University of Kansas Division

of Entom The conditions could allow

marginal colonies to squeak by

in the winter and then boom around now, he said. Usually

around this time, it s too hot to

see this much activity.

Pete Lake, branch manager for Terminex in Topeka, said ants

are expanding in homes to more

locations than the typical

kitchen and bathroom.

The ants are flourishing, and

they re also seeking food and

shelter in people s homes, Lake

said.

Jeff Bodine, co-owner of Bodme s

Pest Control, said he s not

as concerned about the ants as he is termites.

The tiny little ants are what

we ve been seeing more of, and

they re really just a nuisance,

Bodine said. The termites are a

bigger concern for me.

People should wash ant trails

with warm, soapy water, experts

said, seal any cracks around

doors and windows and keep

food put away.

Keep ing clutter away from the

house is important in keeping

termites out.

Even branches that touch the

house can lead to a termite problem,

Bodine said.

Bugs will continue to be a

problem as long as the weather

remains wet and temperatures

stay moderate, Falin said.

They ve had a run of good luck

and as soon as it gets dry and hot,

things will slow down for the

insects and they ll start dying

off, he said.
