THE EVENING SUN THURSDAY, AUGUST 18, 1988 E2. POLICE BLOTTER Teen girl gets probation in killing were watching television and appeared about to shoot himself. Furlan testified that, as she attempted to pull the gun away from him, it went off and the bullet struck him in the center of the forehead. "I categorically reject that ridiculous explanation," Murphy said. "If it could bring him back, I would have no trouble impaneling a firing squad right outside the courthouse today," Murphy said.

But he added that, unfortunately and obviously, no form of punishment would bring Patro back to life. He warned Furlan that he would not hesitate to make her serve the 10-year prison sentence should she she violate the terms of the five-year probation. In addition to the usual "Young lady, I'm not putting you in jail today," Murphy said. "I don't believe for a second that that gentleman attempted suicide. Because of immaturity and stupidity and spite, you shot that gentleman.

Don't be back here with a violation of my probation." "I have mixed emotions right now," said Carl Patro, the victim's father, as he stood shaking outside the courtroom. "I guess my fear is that it might have been less." He added that he had hoped Furlan would be sent to prison "because there is no doubt in my mind that she killed my son." He said he figured that Furlan probably would violate the terms of lan's petite size, her age and her apparent psychological problems, "I don't think an adult correctional facility would do anything but worsen the problem." Furlan, now 17, was convicted in April of involuntary manslaughter. After Patro was killed, Furlan gave birth to a baby boy who she said was fathered by Patro. She named the baby boy after Patro. Testimony and evidence at the trial showed that she and Patro, also 17, had an argument July 14, 1987, while they were in Furlan's father's house in the 2100 block of Cockspur Road in Essex.

Patro, who had been living in East Baltimore, was shot in the forehead with a revolver. Furlan was charged with first- By Mark Parrent Evening Sun Staff A teen-age mother who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in the shooting death of her boyfriend was sentenced today to five years' probation and a suspended 10-year prison term. Baltimore County Circuit Court Judge Joseph F. Murphy told Kim-berly Furlan that he didn't believe her story that Jimmy Patro had been killed when she tried to prevent him from committing suicide, but said a prison sentence would be counterproductive. "It's unfair! She's a goddamned murderer!" screamed the victim's mother as she ran from the courtroom while Murphy was explaining why he was going to impose proba term of obeying all laws, Murphy required her to obtain any necessary qiureu iter 10 uuiam any necessary degree murder, but testified that Pa uegree muraer, dui lesunea inai her probation and might be sent to yiuuauun anu migni De sent I tion rather than a prison term.

County attorney David A. Ply-myer confirmed reports that department workers had been questioned earlier this week regarding an investigation he said is "directed at a specific employee or employees involving misappropriation of funds or property in the hands of the missing. Local authorities confiscated nine video, pinball and electronic poker games from four businesses in January 1987 after investigators with the Inspections and Permits Department discovered that the vendors had failed to take out licenses required if machines are used by the public. The machines were stored at the county fire headquarters in Millersville until the owners paid the $250 fine for failing to comply with county licensing regulations, according to William Pardu, who was chief of the permits section at the time. Sources said reports recently had level management official is a target of the probe, Plymyer declined to be more specific.

James Cabezas, an assistant under State Prosecutor Stephen Mon-tanarelli, also refused to release details of the continuing investigation. "I can't deny that we're involved," Cabezas said yesterday, adding that further inquiries should be directed to Montanarelli, who was out of his office. But sources inside the department said they believed the investigation is related to charges that in-office records and other evidence from a raid early last year on unli ment that several of the games were missing from the storeroom. And. later, when investigators asked to examine records pertaining to the raid, department employees were unable to find some documents.

"I'm a little in the dark," said Pardu, who said state investigators who questioned him gave little insight into the nature of the probe. Pardu, who participated in the 1987 raid, said he believes all nine of the games eventually were recovered by the owners after the fines were paid. "We followed the law step by step," he said. "To my knowledge, none of those machines is missing. I don't know what this is all about."
