A Jury of two men and ten women found John Kimla, 48, Youngstown, and Andrew Perry, 57, Poland, guilty of attempted arson during a Common Pleas Court trial Nov.

18, 1982. Kimla and Perry were sentenced to two to five years at the Columbus Correctional Facility and were each fined $2,500. Judge Nelfred Kimerline granted a stay of execution on the sentence until the defendants had appealed the case to the Third District Court of Appeals in Lima. The defendants were found guilty of a fourth degree felony and had the maximum sentence and fine imposed. The appellate courts ruling af- firmed Kimla and Perrys conviction and the case was remanded to Common Pleas Court for imposition of the sentence.

Jackson, 40, of Columbus, who previously testified he sexually assaulted 65 women, has pleaded innocent by reason of insanity to 11 charges of rape and 15 other charges. Miss Mclntrye, also of Columbus, testified for the prosecution and stuck by her view that Jackson fas sane despite three hours of sharp cross-examination. 1 Schweickart contended that a report on Jackson written by Miss McIntyre and two colleagues at the Southwest Forensic Psychiatry Cotter was too narrow in its view of insanity, contrary to accepted psychiatric schizophrenia and that a computer analysis of the test indicated the same thing.

But, she mainained, that is not significant when viewed in light of material gathered during an 8-to 10-hour interview with Jackson. She said in that interview Jackson exhibited no signs of impaired reality contact with hallucinations or delusions. She also rejected the assertion at the heart of the defenses case that Jackson was compelled by his own obsessions to commit criminal acts. Obsessions are disturbing, frightening and repugnant to those who have them, said Miss McIntyre. In his own words, Dr.

Jackson found these fantasies exhilarating and thrilling. They gave him sexual gratification. Miss McIntyre also testified she didnt consider Jackson insane because an insane person has no choice as to when he will do something, no capacity to pick and choose the time of behavior. She said Jackson would refrain from raping women who.taererfd.OB those for ifletficfo 3" tfrl hich, indicated a serious illness.

However, during the trial County Prosecutor Stan Flegm dismissed two of the charges based on a statute which says the defendants could be indicted on two or more similar offenses but can be convicted of only one charge. Crestline police found three 20-gallon trash cans in the store, each partially or completely filled with lamp oil.

Perry and Kimla were apprehended at the store and police found three rugs soaked with liquid in the trunk of their car. Police said the back of the store was saturated with a liquid substance and some had dripped into the basement. The state fire marshalls crime lab tested the rug sampled and other evidence gathered from the scene. A forensic chemist said that all the items contained flammable lamp oil. The chemist said lamp oil has a flash point similar to kerosene but is less volatile than gasoline.
