Miller seeks $200K for defense in Kan. Jewish site shootings

OLATHE, Kan. (AP) — A Missouri man accused of killing three people at two Kansas Jewish sites is asking for $200,000 to defend himself in his capital murder trial.

The Kansas City Star  reports 74-year-old Frazier Glenn Miller of Aurora, Missouri, says in a motion filed Wednesday he doesn’t trust his stand-by attorneys.

Miller fired the attorneys last month and has been representing himself in court, but District Judge Kelly Ryan ordered the lawyers to assist him.

Miller says the $200,000 would be “sufficient for now” but indicated he would be willing to negotiate a smaller amount.

He is accused of killing William Corporan, Reat Griffin Underwood and Terri LaManno on April 13, 2014, in Overland Park, Kansas. Miller argued in a second motion filed Wednesday that the killings were necessary.
