 SO    AIDS Policy Law. 1995 Mar 24;10(5):9. Unique Identifier : AIDSLINE
       AIDS/95700241
 AB    Eric Larkins pleaded no contest to one felony and one misdemeanor charge
       after the jury was deadlocked and could not reach a verdict on a
       homicide charge for the beating death of a Topeka resident who was
       perceived to be gay. Larkins, 24, was sentenced to work with AIDS
       patients. The judge said working with AIDS patients may give Larkins a
       better understanding of gay people. If Larkins violates the community
       service requirement, he will be sent to prison for seven to nine months
       for the felony. A lesser term of six months would run concurrently for
       the misdemeanor.
