Chronicle REPORT RT and Compiled Gannett from News Associated Service Press reports -Tribune Marion, Ind. Tuesday, August 27, 1991 A-2 NATION Slaying suspect linked with triple murder TAMPA, Fla. The main suspect in the slaying of five Gainesville college students may be linked to a 1989 triple murder in Louisiana, police said in an affidavit. The affidavit in support of a search warrant was released as jury selection began in a robbery trial for Danny Harold Rolling. The trial began a year to the day after the first two victims were found in Gainesville.
Last week, police in Shreveport, Rolling's hometown, obtained blood, saliva and hair samples from Rolling in an investigation of the Nov. 4, 1989, triple slaying. The affidavit from Shreveport Det. Don Ashley said Rolling's saliva will be compared to saliva swabbed from a bite mark on the breast of victim Julie Grissom, 24. Grissom, her 55-year-old father, Tom, and 8-year-old nephew Sean were stabbed to death.
Authorities believe Grissom was the target. The affidavit also said Rolling, 37, lived in Shreveport during late 1989, jogged at the same track as Grissom and on the day of the slayings was fired from his job at a restaurant, a mile from her home. Hair and fiber evidence from Rolling's car was turned over to the FBI for comparison to samples found at the murder scene. Report: Hatfield made $300,000 on deals WASHINGTON Sen.

The group said Thomas, a federal appeals court judge, has shown a cold indifference to the legal problems faced by the poor and uneducated.
He also has failed as a judge to disqualify himself from cases in which his impartiality is open to question, the lawyers' organization said. The group said Thomas should have Thomas disqualified himself as a member of the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals from considering an appeal by prosecutors of former White House aide Oliver North. His "'impartiality could reasonably be questioned" because he had praised North in speeches and a published article, the group said. North was convicted of illegally misleading Congress in its investigation of the Iran-Contra affair, accepting an illegal gift and unlawfully shredding government documents.

It appeared that the seven men and three women hostages were unhurt on -their sixth day of captitivity, said Roger F. Scott, warden at the Talladega Federal Correctional Institution. Scott and other federal prison officials declined to comment about any progress or specifics in continuing negotiations with the Cuban inmates who took over a maximum security unit Wednesday.

It was at least the third time that medical personnel delivered medication through a grill to the detainees and got a look at some of the hostages.
Prison officials have not disclosed the Cubans' demands. But the rebellion broke out on the eve of deportation to Cuba for 32 of the detainees, who came to the United States in the 1980 Mariel boatlift and were convicted of crimes in this country. More than 30 of the Cuban inmates took part in rioting at two federal prisons in 1987 when a round of deportations was announced.

S.Africans attack constitutional plan JOHANNESBURG, South Conservative whites and anti-apartheid black groups both attacked a blueprint for a new constitution proposed by the governing National Party.
South African President F.W. de Klerk's National Party has not formally released the plan. But the guidelines, leaked to a local newspaper, call for full black voting rights and replacement of the presidency with an exec-: utive council of three to five members. Andries Treurnicht, leader of the pro-apartheid Conser-, vative Party, called that totally unacceptable. The plan "paves the way for black majority rule," his Conservatives complained in a statement.
The African National Congress, or ANC, opposed the blueprint on the ground that crucial clauses could be used to preserve white privilege.

Erich Honecker, the ousted East German leader who was whisked away by Soviet officials in March. Russian officials reportedly said they would likely comply. After last week's short-lived ouster of Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev, demands have increased for the Soviet Union to hand over Honecker, an ideological ally of the hard-liners disgraced in the takeover attempt. Honecker and his wife have reportedly been staying near Moscow, but reports have also placed him at a health resort in the Caucasus.
