Thurber is accused of kidnapping, raping and killing Jodi Sanderholm of Arkansas City, Kan. The Kansas State Supreme Court heard arguments Friday, Oct. 27, 2017 in an appeal from Thurber’s attorneys, to spare him from being executed for the college student’s murder over questions about whether he is developmentally disabled. A ruling will come later. (AP Photo/ Donita Clausen, Pool File)
