Officers gather for conference, compare notes on Lucas, Toole United Press International MONROE, La. — Police in vestigators from 22 states geared Tuesday to compare notes on the bloody, cross country death sprees of two admitted mass killers and hoped to trace the paths of other men accused in multiple slayings. The three-day conference sche duled to begin Wednesday is the second national meeting by officers hoping to tie unsolved murders in their areas to Henry Lee Lucas or Ottis Elwood Toole. Lucas, a one-eyed drifter con victed of killing his mother, and Toole, a convicted arsonist, have detailed for police slayings they committed both alone and together. Lucas has admitted 150 slayings, and has been charged with seven Texas killings and one in Louisiana. He earlier pleaded guilty to killing an elderly Texas woman and was sentenced to 75 years in prison. He also received a life prison term for his conviction in the death of his teenage common- law wife. Toole, a 36-year-old drifter, is serving a 20-year prison term in Florida for arson, and has con fessed to killing at least 50 peo ple. He admitted killing and de capitating a 6-year-old Florida boy, but then recanted the con fession. Officers from across the na tion gathered in Monroe last October to compare notes on the men, and requested at the time that a second conference be scheduled, said MonrOe police Lt. Joe Cummings. “There is so much more in- formation that we have Woman skips law school gathered since the previous con ference,” Cummings said Tues day. “It was decided at the first one that we needed to have a second in the next three to six months.” Toole and Lucas have been charged in the slaying of a Northeast Louisiana L niversity co-ed, and Toole has been ac cused of killing an Iowa, La., woman near Lake Charles and a teenager near Monroe. Both men remain suspects in numerous unsolved slayings, and officers hope to gather needed evidence to file charges against them, Cummings said. “The figure we have is 60 (cases tied to Lucas and Toole),” he said. “But there are other officers that have more informa tion to tie them to killings. That’s one thing we want to try to deter mine — to find out just how - many cases are secured against these individuals. “There are always going to be more charges filed against them.” Officers also will discuss at least • two other men believed respon sible for killings in more than one state, Cummings said, but he declined to give any informa tion on the men. United Press International SAN FRANCISCO —A legal secretary prepped by “reading the law” and tutoring from her boss has passed the California State Bar examination. Nearly 4,000 law-school graduates flunked it. Myrna Oglesby, 48, of Ukiah, Calif., last received formal edu cation in high school 32 years ago. A total of 3,906 law-school graduates — 51 percent — learned last month that they had flunked the examination. To qualify to take the exam without being a law-school gra duate one must: • Pass a Bar Assocation college equivalency test. • Work in the office of a lawyer or judge willing to devote at least 5 hours a week to one-on-one vducational supervision. • And study a minimum of 18 hours per week outside the office for 48 weeks of each year, with the tutor filing a report ev ery six months with the State Bar ^oja the content. Oglesby’s mentor was her boss, lawyer Jared Carter, who taught her for five years before she felt ready to tackle the bar exam. She said that key advantages to bypassing law school were “saving classroom time by doing it my way instead of listening to some lectures that, perhaps, wouldn’t have been beneficial ' and “the fact that I had my own personal tutor — which you don’t get in large law schools.
