Description

The opinion of the court was delivered by The plaintiff, Arnold Ruebke, Jr., contends that the defendant
libeled him in a March 1985 magazine article. The Reno County
District Court granted the defendant's motion for summary
judgment. The plaintiff appeals. Appellee, Globe Communications Corporation (Globe), publishes a
crime magazine, Startling Detective, sold throughout the United
States on a bi-monthly basis. In March 1985, Arnold Ruebke, Jr.,
was being tried for three counts of first-degree murder and three
counts of aggravated kidnapping in the district court of Reno
County, Kansas. On March 8, 1985, after Ruebke's preliminary
examination, Globe distributed its May 1985 issue of Startling
Detective, which included a feature story entitled "Killer Who
Came Straight From Hell," with an overline stating, "Kansas Has
Another `In Cold Blood' Case." The article recited the events
surrounding the October 29, 1984, kidnapping and murder of
two-year-old twins, James and Andrew Vogelsang, and their
babysitter, Tammey Mooney. The article detailed the investigation
of the murder; the manner in which Ruebke was determined to be
the prime suspect; and how Ruebke turned himself in to the police
seeking protective custody, was then arrested, and eventually
charged. The final paragraph of the article stated:

"By law, until such time as he may be judged at a
fair trial, Arnold Leroy Ruebke must be considered to
be innocent of the charges that have been placed
against him."
