Man still sought
in sex crime case
By J.Frank Hernandez
Reporter
Crime Stoppers is looking for the
suspect in the sexual assualt of an
18-year-old woman. The victim was
assaulted between 5 and 7 p.m. Sat
urday, Feb. 20, 1988 in her home lo
cated near the intersection of Hwy.
30 and Munson Street in College
Station.
The victim answered a knock on
her door and allowed her assailant to
use the phone. After doing so, he
threatened her with a knife and sex
ually assualted her.
The suspect is described as a white

mately 200 pounds, with blue eyes,

speckled with gray.

State workers may get
$1.5 billion in raises
AUSTIN (AP) — A state senator
hasproposed a $1.5 billion state em
ployee pay raise, including an emer
gency 12 percent, across-the-board
increase and further raises for 1990-
91.
“Our state employees have bitten
the bullet for too long, shouldering
the burden of the state’s budget,”
Sen. Gonzalo Barrientos, D-Austin,
said Tuesday.
“Their salaries have not kept pace
with inflation nor with increases in
insurance premiums,” he told a news
conference. “Inflation and insur
ance have combined not only to re
duce the purchasing power of our
state employees’ salaries, but have
conspired to result in an actual pay
cut.”
With Barrientos were representa
tives of the Texas State Troopers As
sociation, Texas Public Employees
Association, Texas Game Wardens
Association and Texas State Em
ployees Union. State Reps. Parker
McCollough, D-Georgetown; Bob
Richardson, R-Austin; and Lena
Guerrero, D-Austin; also appeared.
The proposed raise would apply
to all state employees in Texas, num
bering more than 200,000, Barrien
tos said.
Barrientos said he filed legislation
authorizing the 12 percent emer
gency raise — with a $125 floor —
and it would take effect March 1 if
approved. He also pledged to work
for additional 3.4 percent employee
pay raises for state employees in
each of the next two fiscal years.
The cost of the package would be
$300 million this fiscal year, $600
million in 1990 and $600 million in
1991, he said.
Barrientos said he would keep his
mind open to a tax increase, but he
would look to fund the proposed
raise in other ways. He said he would
support a state lottery and noted
that the comptroller also has de
ducted money from available reve
nue as a contingency for court cases.
“Keeping experienced, dedicated
workers on the job for the people of
Texas saves taxpayer dollars,” Bar
rientos said. “It is an investment, not
an expense. We cannot afford the
expense of searching for, hiring and
training new employees, and then
losing them.”
Inflation has been 20.8 percent
since 1983, while pay raises for state
employees have amounted to 12 per
cent, Barrientos said. He also said
studies show private-sector employ
ees are paid 17 percent to 39 percent
more than state employees doing
comparable jobs.
Suspect in shooting
surrenders to police
McKinney (ap) — a suspect
surrendered to authorities Tuesday
afternoon in the fatal shooting of a
woman who had come to a day care
center to pick up her children.
Ricky Lynn Newman, 30, was ac
companied by his attorney as he
gave himself up to Collin County
sheriffs officers without incident.
Officers described him as the es
tranged husband of Laurie Lee
Newman, who died Monday from a
single gunshot wound.
“There was no problem,” Sheriffs
Lt. John Holton said of Newman’s
surrender. “He walked in and said,
‘I’m Richard Newman. I understand
you are looking for me.’ We heard
he would be here at 4 p.m. and he
showed up at 4:15 p.m.”
Authorities said Newman would
probably be arraigned by Wednes
day morning.
“He was very subdued. He has
been very calm. He has not been say
ing very much. He has just kept his
head down,” sheriffs Lt. Bobby
Clark said of the suspect.
Plano Municipal Court Judge
Toni Baggett issued a murder war
rant for Newman’s arrest after Lau
rie Newman died. Pursued by the
gunman, she had driven about five
blocks from the shooting scene at La
Petite Academy to a bowling alley.
She was then taken to a hospital
where she died of her wound.
Holton said Newman was being
booked into Collin County Jail in
lieu of $ 100,000 bond.
Before she died, Laurie Newman
provided information about her as
sailant, Plano police said.
Jon Giddings, a police investigator
and public information officer in the
North Dallas suburb, said Laurie
Newman, 25, of Richardson, was
wounded Monday afternoon as she
tried to pick up her two children.
The gunman drove up in front of
her, left his vehicle and fired a large-
caliber handgun five times.
Laurie Newman drove to Plano
Super Bowl, pursued by her at
tacker. After he fled, she was treated
by Plano Lire Department personnel
and then transferred to ACA Medi
cal Center Plano where she died at
5:50 p.m. of a gunshot to her right
side, said Giddings.
Officers were first called to the
bowling alley to which she had
driven about one-half mile from her
attacker, Luis Benavides, the howl
ing alley manager, said.
“When she drove up, there were
several customers and employees at
the entrance who assisted her,” Be
navides said. “She evidently was shot
at the day care center. She drove up,
she got out on her own and said,
‘Please help me. I’ve been shot.’
“I was working inside but went
out when I heard all the commo
tion.”
The gunman at the bowling lanes
“evidently saw the crowd of people
there and he took off,” Benavides
said.
He said an off-duty firefighter
who was bowling at the center ren
dered aid to the woman as paramed
ics were called.
The slaying occurred six weeks af
ter a similar shooting at a day-care
center in Dallas resulted in the
deaths of a Dallas woman and a Dal
las County deputy sheriff who had
driven her to the Day Place Devel
opment Child Center to drop off
two of her children.
Loeffler gets
appointment
as UT regent
AUSTIN (AP) — Former Repub
lican congressman Tom Loeffler,
former state GOP chairman Chester
Upham Jr. of Mineral Wells and
Robert Cruikshank of Houston were
named Tuesday to the University of
Texas System Board of Regents.
Gov. Bill Clements named the
three to replace Robert Baldwin III
of Austin, Jess Hay of Dallas and
Mario Yzaguirre of Brownsville.
The three new appointees, subject to
Senate confirmation, will serve
terms ending Feb. 1, 1995.
“The management and leadership
skills of these outstanding appoin
tees will move higher education in
Texas into a new era of excellence
and accountability,” Clements said.
Outgoing regent Baldwin was a
close associate of former Democratic
Gov. Mark White, who ousted Clem
ents in 1982 and then lost to the Re
publican in 1986.
Dallas financier Hay, chairman of
Lomas & Nettleton, has been a ma
jor Democratic Party fund-raiser.
Loeffler, 42, of Mason, is a senior
partner in the law firm of McCam-
ish, Martin, Brown & Loeffler. He
served in the U.S. House from Jan
uary 1979 through January 1987,
and he was an unsuccessful GOP
candidate for governor in 1986.
