Kansas Supreme Court Upholds Life Sentence | Wichita News
The Kansas Supreme Court has sealed La’Niha Banks’ fate, unanimously upholding her life sentence without parole for the fatal shooting of 19-year-old LaTionna Johnson in a May 2023 Wichita bar brawl. Despite appeals over evidence and jury instructions, the high court rejected all claims, ruling that Banks’ actions—firing at Johnson’s car as she tried to flee—constituted felony murder. With no chance of early release until June 27, 2048, Banks now faces decades behind bars at Topeka Correctional Facility.
