Ottawa ? Lawyers for a man accused of killing four people in eastern Kansas have filed motions focused on the death penalty.

Kyle Trevor Flack is charged with capital murder in the 2013 slayings of Kaylie Smith Bailey and her daughter. He’s also charged with premeditated first-degree murder in the deaths of Andrew A. Stout, and Steven White. Stout, White and Kaylie Bailey were found at Stout’s farm in Ottawa, about 50 miles southwest of Kansas City. Bailey’s daughter was found a few days later in neighboring Osage County.

If convicted, Flack could face the death penalty.

The Topeka Capital Journal reports that Flack’s attorneys filed a motion asking the judge to explain to prospective jurors that they can sentence Flack to life in prison, rather than impose the death penalty. They also asked to question potential jurors about their views on the costs of execution versus lifetime imprisonment.

The attorneys also asked to hold a hearing on the admissibility of statements and conclusions draw by prosecutions about cell phone data analyzed in the case, and filed a motion seeking to block prosecutors from questioning defense witnesses about compensation they are receiving.

Flack is set to appear at a motion hearing in district court Tuesday.

Prospective jurors will be questioned starting Feb. 1. Notices of jury duty have been mailed to 600 Franklin County citizens.
