    Protesters criticize Kan. domestic violence move

    TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) About two dozen people are protesting a Kansas prosecutor’s decision not to pursue domestic violence and other misdemeanor cases.

    The protesters gathered Tuesday outside the Shawnee County Courthouse, where district attorney Chad Taylor has his office. Taylor announced in early September that he would no longer pursue misdemeanor cases from within the Topeka city limits.

    He says his office can’t afford to handle those cases because of a 10 percent cut in his budget for 2012.

    In theory the city of Topeka could prosecute the cases, but its officials say it doesn’t have the resources, either.

    Protesters said they are upset that Taylor and local officials can’t work things out.

    One of the protesters was Claudine Dombrowski, who said local officials are gambling with people’s lives.
