Lisa WInter, right, was taken into custody Friday morning from a Social and Rehabilitation Services office, 1901 Del., in connection with the shooting of Michael S. Miller.
A Lawrence woman was arrested and booked into Franklin County Jail on Friday under suspicion of shooting a witness earlier this week in Ottawa.
Lisa K. Winter, 38, was booked into jail just before 6 p.m. under suspicion of attempted murder, Franklin County Jail officials said Friday. She has not been formally charged.
About 9:45 a.m., a call came in from the office of Kansas Social and Rehabilitation Services, 1901 Del., saying that Winter, who at the time was wanted for questioning in relation to the shooting case, was in the building.
A few minutes later, Lawrence police detectives arrived at the office, walked out with Winter and drove away with her in the front seat.
"Detectives here have been assisting detectives (in Ottawa)," said Capt. Ray Urbanek, a Lawrence police spokesman.
Police on Thursday had asked for the public's help with finding Winter, then a "person of interest" in the shooting Tuesday night of Michael S. Miller, Ottawa.

Miller was scheduled to take the witness stand the following day in an aggravated-battery trial in Douglas County District Court.
Miller was found Tuesday night lying in the street with numerous gunshot wounds near the 1500 block of South Hickory Street in Ottawa.
He is being treated at an undisclosed hospital.

Would all those Lawrence people that posted how dangerous and out of control Ottawa is (laughable) please take a moment out of their Christmas weekend to apologize and admit that it was a Lawrence nut job creating the problems and that the Ottawa citizen was actually doing the right thing by testyfing against a criminal?

Take it with a grain of salt man.....And let's get back to the main issue, making fun of the fugly crackhead....who wants to make bets whether or not she'll roll over on a bunch of her crack smokin buddies in a half assd attempt at getting a lighter sentance?

Miss Blessed3x I have a word of advice...
Know what your talking about before you hit the keyboard. Franklin County has a major crime problem due to the fact that there are many many farms in that county. What does that mean???
I will tell you... anhydrous ammonia
And with you being blessed, you might not know what that means. It is the MAJOR must have to made Meth.
I will sight my references for knowing this
1. My Husband worked for Farmland making the Anhydrous.
2. Our Daughter works for KDHE and she works in the department that deals with all Meth labs...
Not so laughable huh ?

Question...What the differenence between Mr. Miller and myself? Mr.Miller, had his posessions stolen and was assulted.
Myself...I would of made sure that it was a kill shot.
Violent crime has gotten so bad in Lawrence that it makes me think you all have had your heads in the sand.
You sit behind your keyboards and make hateful staments. How pathetic and sad or maybe it makes you feel big while in real life people really could care less what you have to say.....

We should all feel blessed knowing that our tax dollars have been supporting this welfare case for years. Afterall, isn't this the 'reason for the season'?
oldgranny (anonymous) says…
Was she really dumb enough to think that she could show up at the SRS building and they wouldn't turn her in? Must have been real desprate for that welfare check...
lasseter (anonymous) says…
WOW !!! Classclown, I see that elementary education is really working for you....Bravo !
When you grow up and pay the taxes that we have had to pay for the past twenty years while raising four Children, then I will gladly apologize to you. Have you ever heard "By the grace of God there go I" ?
I'm not a religious person but I do know that *any* one could have a family member or friend make a bad decision
Throw all the insults you want, it only makes me feel sorry for you and more and more pity for you.

I'm with you on that one!!!!!!!!!!!!

lasseter, maybe you should do some studying before you hit the keyboard. Ottawa Police Chief Dennis Butler was quoted in the Ottawa paper this week as saying that violent crimes were down by about 50% this year!
Oh, and I am a MR. not a MISS. Thank you.

Ottawa is a cess pool. Trying to blame that on the fact that it's a farm community is, well, it's stupid. Yes, we all know Anhydrous plays a major part in construction of meth. If the town were not full of scumbags, it wouldn't matter if the Anhydrous pump was in the middle of town and a free spigot on it.
The caliber of people moving into Franklin county is to blame. Crackheads and Welfare / SSI recipients. People who pop out kids like chicklets! Those moving into Franklin county because their loser kid has been expelled from every school in Johnson or Douglas county. Its not a bad drive back into KC, or move the rotten kid out to Ottawa and forget him/her. Let them run wild and excuse it by saying 'we moved to a small town to let Junior experience this freedom' give me a break.

If you look closely at the photo she is carrying as "T" route schedule.
See?People do use the "T"!
Or does the "T" cater to violent criminals?
Blame the "T" driver for her actions?

y'all had better be saying similar things about miami, linn, anderson, douglas yes douglas, lyon, osage, coffey, shawnee et al counties! for god's sake, YES franklin county/ottawa has had some bad stuff happening lately, some VERY prolific horrid events; but then again-tell me what counties have NOT??? geeeeeeez. to read this you'd think that franklin is the ONLY county that's having troubles. uh, what about wyandotte? c'mon, EVERY county has its share of problems! and the meth? if y'all think it's ALL centered in franklin county, you really oughta pull your heads out of your butts. that stuff is everywhere! geeeeeeeeez.
merry christmas&happy holidays.

If it wasn't for Douglas and Johnson Co trash spilling over into Franklin Co we'd be alright. Wish you folks up there would keep your problems to yourself.

Thats a good point Marion,but have you ever been in trouble?Once you get arrested ,you are f***ed unless you can prove your own innocence.So basically you are guilty until proven innocent.Anyone that has been in trouble can tell you that.

I have to laugh when I hear anyone from Lawrence calling ANY other town a cesspool. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black....
At least Fr. Co. doesn't have a "domestic registry" or Phil Kline as a DA.
