Deliberations start for brothers accused in Killing rampage Ryder trial BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) The prosecution rested its case against actress Winona Ryder after calling a half-dozen witnesses who said she shoplifted more than $5,500 worth of merchandise from Saks Fifth Avenue. Detective Mark Parker, the prosecution's final witness, described Ryder as -'very calm" on the night of-her arrest after being detained by guards at the Beverly Hills store. "She had a smile on her face," Parker told die Superior Court jury Thursday. The attorney for the film actress was expected to mount her defense today.

Ryder, 31, is charged with felony grand theft, burglary and vandalism for allegedly stealing expensive clothes and accessories on Dec. 12, 2001. She faces up to three yeaistn prison, if convicted. Store security personnel have testified the actress remarked after being detained that she thought an assistant had paid for the merchandise, but also that she RYDER had shoplifted as preparation for a movie role. The detective offered a similar account.

"She was nervous about what was going to happen," Parker said. "At one point she was explaining that she was getting in character for a role as a kleptomaniac. She wanted to see what it was like to shoplift." Also testifying was Ernest Amaya, a Saks asset protection agent who said he was called to the front door to be there when Ryder left so that she could be detained. "I said, 'Excuse me, I work in asset protection and need to talk to you about merchandise unpaid She said, 'I thought my assistant paid for it. I am very Amaya said.

No assistant was seen Ryder in store security videotapes of the actress moving through the store heavily laden with merchandise. Amaya said he asked Ryder about other items and she volunteered that she had two small beaded purses around her neck that were concealed by her coat. Defense attorney Mark Geragos earlier aggressively cross-examined former store security guard Colleen Rainey, who testified she peered through slats of a fitting room door and saw Ryder use scissors to cut security tags off merchandise. Geragos accused her of profiting from the case and making up stories. Geragos was displaying documents detailing the finances of Rainey fed her husband after Ryder's arrest when Judge Elden Fox interrupted.

"Are you going to tie this into something relevant, or just go into her family background?" the judge asked. Geragos insisted he would show relevance, but he never succeeded in proving that the couple somehow benefited from her involvement in the Ryder case. At one point, Geragos said he wanted Rainey to carefully study the handwriting on financial documents because "I don't want you to commit any further act of perjury." The prosecutor objected and the judge warned Geragos he could be held in contempt. Milk? Calif.

BIRTHS Coloma Boy, 8 pounds 92 ounces, Arica Harris, 3:48 p.m. Oct. 1 8. WICHITA, Kan. (AP) Greed and lust drove two brothers to a nine-day crime spree that left five people dead and ended when a wounded survivor ran bleeding and naked through the snow to seek help, prosecutors said Thursday.

Later in the day, jurors began deliberations in the murder trial of Reginald and Jonathan Carr. The two are accused in the rampage that ended with the shootings of five friends in a remote soccer field. One woman survive the shooting. "The crimes ended because of one girl who had the resolve to survive totell the story" Deputy District Attorney Kim Parker said during closing arguments. Lawyers for each of the brothers, sought to blame the other.

Prosecutors on Thursday presented graphic pictures of four victims lying in the snowrcovered field were they died. "You have four people frozen in time bullets that thrashed through their brains that drew the life out of them, that froze their hearts on that field of snow. They died by criminal means and they died together at the hands of two brothers, Jonathan and Reginald Carr," District Attorney Nola Foulston told jurors. Jurors deliberated for about 90 minutes before ending for the night. The survivor of the quadruple killing sat quietly in the front row throughout the arguments, averting her eyes whenever photographs of her dead friends were projected onto the screen.

The Carr brothers are charged with numerous crimes. The most notorious involves the events during two days in December 2000, when two armei intruders entered a Wichita home. The two women and three men inside were forced to engage in sexual acts with each other and to withdraw money from ATMs.The women were repeatedly raped before the five friends were taken to the soccer field and shot. Aaron Sander, 29; Brad Heyka, 27; Jason Befort, 26; and Heather Muller, 25, died. Befort's girlfriend, then a 25-year-old teacher, survived and ran a mile to find, help.

She identified the Carr brothers as her attackers. Jurors are deliberating over 47 counts filed against each bfother, including four counts of capital murder for the quadruple killings. The Carrs also are being tried in the Dec. 2000, attempted robbery and shooting of Ann Walenta, 55, who later died, and a robbery four days earlier in which a man was abducted and forced to withdraw cash from ATMs. John Val Wachtel, attorney for Reginald Carr, told jurors that the crime scene contained DNA evidence he said belonged to Jonathan Carr.

Val Wachtel also focused on dis crepancies in the description of Regi nald Carr from the survivor ot the quadruple killings; Mark Manna, attorney for Jonathan Carr, said no evidence connected his client to Walenta's shooting or the robbery. Neither the male robbery victim nor Walenta before her death could identify Jonathan Carr one of the two men who attacked them but both identified Reginald Carr. possible hordes of tourists to change names like Sand City, Dorris, Etna or Biggs to Got Milk?

Joe Monument Works percent said they believe the woman would better repre-1 sent them while 26 percent said the man would be better. The poll found that women and Democrats were more likely to show a preference for women candidates than men and Republicans. Nearly half of the people in the survey said they believe women politicians tend to be liberal while less than a quarter think they tend to be conservative. "Once women get into office, they do have different issues than do men," said Gilda Morales of the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers University in New Jersey. "They are more interested in women's issues, in children's issues and, I hate to say it, domestic issues like health care and education." The poll was conducted at the Scripps Survey Research Center at Ohio University.

Residents of the United States were interviewed by telephone from Oct. 1 3-28 in a study funded by a grant from the Scripps Howard Foundation. The poll has an overall 4 percentage point margin of error, although the margin increases when examining attitudes among smaller groups within the survey. The margin for women only, for example, is 6 percent. From page 1 Only 27 percent said they think the word "honest" describes most politicians "extremely well" or "quite well." Seventy-two percent said they believe women politicians can be described as honest.

Women were also much more likely to be thought to be qualified, sincere, hardworking, moral, caring and honest than are politicians as a group. Women running for federal offices this year are aware of these findings. "There seems to be more acceptance among voters for women candidates these days," concluded Gloria Tristani, the Democratic candidate for Senate in New Mexico. "Studies have shown that people are more apt to trust a woman than a man. I'm not quite sure why." There were also indications that some voters will give preference to a woman running for a congressional seat.

The survey asked who the voter would support if a male and female candidate were equally qualified. Thirty-four For Monuments that are finely handcrafted on the premises and competitively priced.
