Los sobrevivientes y testigos de la violencia armada a menudo se congelan emocionalmente al principio, como mecanismo de afrontamiento.

A federal judge said the women showed no valid legal reason for delaying their claims against disgraced Detective Roger Golubski, the Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kansas.

Sharon Kinne, who fled Kansas City in 1964 after being acquitted of two murders, was the subject of one of the longest outstanding murder warrants in the area. She was convicted of another murder in Mexico in 1964, escaped from prison in 1969 and died in 2022 in Canada.

The Kansas Bureau of Investigation officially concluded suicide was the former detective's cause of death, although it could not say how he obtained a gun. Golubski died the hour his federal trial was set to begin on charges of violating the civil rights of multiple women.
