[QUOTE="Old Fart, post: 2490407, member: 4899"] GREAT BEND, Kan. (AP) A Kansas man charged with first-degree murder is afraid the tattooed mirror-image letters spelling out the word "murder" across his neck might prejudice a jury, so he is asking for a professional tattoo artist to remove or cover it up. Prosecutors say they aren't opposed to Jeffrey Chapman covering his tattoo, but Barton County's sheriff says he's against transporting Chapman to a licensed tattoo facility the only places tattoo artists are allowed to practice under Kansas law. The Great Bend Tribune ([url]http://bit.ly/1hdCklp[/url] ) reports Chapman's trial is scheduled to start Monday in the November 2011 killing of Damon Galliart, whose body was found by hunters in a roadside ditch southwest of Great Bend. Chapman's attorney says in a motion the tattoo would be extremely prejudicial if seen by a jury. [url]http://news.yahoo.com/man-seeks-hide-murder-tattoo-trial-001641244.html[/url] [/QUOTE]
