2 The Daily Tar Heel Monday, November 3, 1S75 Out Continued from page 1 ever been killed as a result of it. But he said recent information has forced him to reevaluate his position on the issue. "When I read that we are the only state that has such a law, it indicates that we are out of step with the resl of the country," he said. "1 would change my vote if and when it comes up again." Walker said he could not predict the outcome of a new repeal bill, if one is again introduced in the General Assembly but noted that increased research and information could change votes. However, Vickery said the statute is already well understood by the legislature. "Everybody understands what it is and what it does," he said. Scatterfield said the Attorney General's Office supports the law but with some modifications. He said the law should be revised to state that onlv suspects of capital crimes (first-degree murder and rape in North Carolina) could be declared outlaws. "It (the law) is useful because the family of the person declared an outlaw will work very hard to get the person to turn himself in before he gets shot," Scatterfield said. Sen. Julian Allsbrook, D-Halifax, said, "One of the main benefits of the law is that it is a means of apprehending criminals without violence. He said charges that the law is unconstitutional are not applicable. "If a policeman shoots an escaping criminal he is doing his constitutional duty," he said. "It is the same with private citizens protecting themselves." Allsbrook voted against the repeal bill in the last legislature and said he would do so again if it came up again. Sen. Carl D. Totherow, D-Forsyth, also voted to retain the law. He said the law is an excellent way for the law enforcement agents to get cooperation in a manhunt. He said he voted to retain the law because no one has ever been injured under the statute, and he doubts if anyone ever would be. "There is nothing to back up that claim (that the law is unconstitutional)," he said. Totherow said he does not think the law will be repealed unless more information or case histories of abuse are presented to the legislature. State Supreme Court Chief Justice Suzie Sharp refused to comment on the law, saying, "The case may come up and I can't give an opinion." However, a Superior Court judge in Hillsborough, Edwin Preston Jr., said the law has to be handled very carefully because of the permanent effect it may have. He said he has never declared anyone an outlaw and doubts that any judge has done so in Orange County. e? fo) fo) W LniLTQ U r JJ Lru in n rf iJ 1 ir irmif I've tried to run an open campaign.
