OLATHE, Kan. - UPDATE - Judge Kelly Ryan has granted Frazier Glenn Cross, also known as Glenn Miller, a continuance until Friday morning at 9 a.m.
Before the judge granted the continuance, he and Cross discussed what evidence can be presented in certain phases of a trial.
Ryan said the evidence Cross wanted to present now, evidence Cross said explains why he did it, is not permitted in the guilt phase of a trial. The judge said that phase is to determine guilt, not intention. Ryan also said Cross did not present evidence for a compelling necessity defense.
Ryan said if Cross is found guilty then he would consider allowing the evidence Cross wants to show now, which consists of CDs, books and news clips, in a second phase, which determines motive. The judge would not say in advance what evidence would be allowed if there is a second phase of the trial.
Throughout the discussion, Cross interrupted the judge. Ryan told Cross his disrespect could lead to his removal from the courtroom.
The judge called the jury back into the courtroom just before noon and granted Cross his continuance until Friday.
Cross, also known as Glenn Miller, is representing himself in the case. He said he needed extra time to recuperate because of his health and to give him more time to prepare his defense.
He said the CDs and books he's wanting to use for his defense are not available at this time.
He also told the court that he did not bring everything with him to Thursday's proceedings.
State arguing Cross may be sabotaging case
Johnson County District Attorney Steve Howe, meanwhile, said a phone call Cross made this week revealed he may be actively trying to sabotage the trial.
"Detective (Gary) Borstelman listened to the defendant's jail calls over the night and his intent in what he's planning on doing to try to, I would say, undercut the court's authority or sabotage the proceedings," Howe said. "It might be relevant to his state of mind and how he's acting in these proceedings."
Howe argued it was Cross' "intent to make a scene."
Other phone calls played during testimony
During Thursday's court session, two recordings of calls Cross made in October 2014 were played for the jury.
In an October 9 phone call, Cross said that those who associate with Jews were hurting their own people.
"If they associate with Jews, they're accomplices of Jews," he said on the call.
In the second call, made on October 23, Cross admits to carrying out the shootings. He said his deteriorating health led to his decision to do the shootings, adding his biggest fear was dying without killing any Jews.
"I thought they were Jews of course," Cross said. "I had never felt such exhilaration. Overpowering joy. Total and absolute freedom. It was a feeling I hadn't had since 1967 when I became Jew-wise."
Later in the call, Cross expressed some regrets over killing 14-year-old Reat Underwood. However, he added that the youngest victim "looked like a Jew."
