Law & Order
Temple vandalized with anti-gay signs
From Staff Reports
Swastikas and anti-gay messages
were written on the front doors of the
South Street Temple Saturday night,
Lincoln police reported.
The temple was the scene of
anti-gay protests and counter-pro
tests last week. The Rev. Fred
Phelps of Topeka, Kan., led about
15 protestors in an anti-homosexu
ality demonstration across the
street from the temple.
About 300 counter-protestors gath
ered on the steps of the temple.
A swastika 8 feet across was drawn
in black marker on the doors of the
temple, 2055 ST. 20th St., Lincoln Po
lice Sgt. Ann Heermann said.
The symbol was accompanied by
an anti-gay message and the initials
“CHCII.”
Three smaller, encircled swastikas
were drawn on doors on the east side
of the temple.
The vandalism caused a total of
$30 damage.
Theft
Lincoln police reported a total of
six auto thefts over the weekend and a
total of eight during the previous week.
Lincoln police Sgt. Ann Heermann
said warmer spring weather may ac
count for a rise in thefts, as it some
times does in other crimes.
Most strings of crime come in
spurts, she said, and it is difficult to
identify trends.
This year, from September to Feb
ruary, auto thefts have increased 10
percent over last year.
From September 1993 to February
1994 there were 220 thefts. During the
same period in 1994-95, there were
241.
When police detect a trend in any
kind of crime, she said, they enact
problem-oriented policing, which tar
gets the cause of the crime, rather than
handling each individual incident,
Heermanri said.
The department’s crime-analysis
team'makes strings of related crimes
into case studies, she said.
The police then use those studies to
develop solutions, such as heavy pre
vention, education or whatever situa
tions demand, Heermann said.
Courts
Lawyers for two Lincoln police
officers must decide this week whether
they want to combine the trials of the
officers.
Officers Luke Wilke and Stephen
Schellpeper will head back to court
June 5. Their dates were set during an
informal meeting with Lancaster
County District Court Judge Donald
Endacott Friday.
Lincoln Fire Capt. Danny Wright
also had his trial set.
A grand jury indicted the three in
connection with the death of Fran
cisco Renteria.
The jury trials for the officers are
expected to run two weeks. Wright’s
bench trial is expected to begin June
26 and last approximately one week.
Special Prosecutor Robert Bartle
said it didn’t matter to him whether the
officers were tried together or sepa
rately. The court, however, would save
money and time with one trial, he said.
With all the media attention ex
pected to be given to the trials, Bartle
said separate trials would only com
plicate jury selection for Wright.
