■ As Kinkel’s trial date draws
near precautions are being
taken to prevent media overex
posure
By Sara Lieberth

The trial of Kipland P. Kinkel,
accused shooter in the Thurston
High School tragedy, is slated to
commence Monday, Sept. 27 in
Lane County Circuit Court and es
timated to last for at least a month.
Because the trial is being conduct
ed in the community devastated
Ioi May zi,
1998, it is ex
pected gamer
an inordinate
amount of
community
interest and
media atten
tion.
Anticipat
KINKEL
ing this, pre
siding judge
JackMattison recently issued a di
rective to local and state media
outlets on procedural rules he de
veloped to guide their coverage.
Among the imposed restrictions,
television cameras will not be al
lowed inside the courtroom in ses
sion. Mattison cited the defendants
right to a fair trial ancf the “reason
able likelihood that the coverage
would interfere with [those] rights
and the orderly presentation of evi
dence,” as his considerations in
denying live coverage.
Courtroom security was a seri
ous factor indicated as well. In ad
dition to the existing security en
trance inside the courthouse, for
this high-profile trial Mattison has
instructed another security check
be administered outside the door
of the courtroom itself.
Kinkel will be tried as an adult
though he was only 15 when he al
legedly fatally shot his parents,
Bill and Faith Kinkel, and opened
fire in the Thurston High School
cafeteria killing two students and
wounding 25 others.
As expected, the defendant’s
team of lawyers announced earlier
this year that they intend to pre
sent an insanity defense, which if
successful would place the ac
cused under confined treatment
for the disorder instead of state
prison.
Kinkel faces 58 separate charges
including 26 counts of attempted
aggravated murder and 28 addi
tional counts ranging from first de
gree assault and unlawful manu
facture of a destructive device to
possession of a short-barreled
shotgun.
The tragedy in Springfield is
viewed as particularly troubling
because it exists in a series of
school shootings across the coun
try over the last few years. Simi
lar incidents in Jonseboro, Ark.;
Paducah, Ky.; Pearl, Miss.; and
most recently in Littleton, Colo,
have sparked a nationwide focus
on teen violence, anger manage
ment and prevention.
President Clinton spoke about
this when he addressed a Portland
audience on school violence ear
lier this summer.
“All across America, commu
nities are taking responsibility
for making our schools safer for
our children. But we can, and
must, do better at preventing
these terrible tragedies. We
must teach our children right
from wrong and how to resolve
conflicts peacefully.”
