Police name third victim of attacks at Kansas Jewish centers

The third victim of the shooting attacks at two Jewish centers near Kansas City on Sunday has been named as 53-year-old Terri LaManno.

 

An occupational therapist, LaManno was married and the mother of two children. She was making a regular visit to her mother who lived at the Shalom Village retirement facility, where one of the attacks took place, police said.

 

Former Ku Klux Klan leader and avowed anti-Semite Frazier Glenn Cross, 73, faces local and federal prosecution on hate crime charges for the shooting spree that killed 14-year-old Reat Griffin Underwood and his grandfather Dr. William Corporon, 69, outside a Jewish community center, and LaManno at the nearby Jewish retirement home.

 

It was a bitter irony noted by many in the area that none of the victims was Jewish. The boy and his grandfather were members of an area Methodist church and the woman attended a Catholic church. (Reuters)
