Survivors: his wife, the former Kay Coleen Wisdom; two sons, Mike and Tom Millett; five daughters, Alice Foley, Jane Ann Meyer, Libby Moore, Margie Darling and Siamese twins' dad given year in jail after missing court By RON LESKO Associated Press KENTLAND, Ind. Kenneth Lakeberg turned himself in to authorities last night, hours after an arrest warrant was issued because he failed to show up for a probation hearing. Lakeberg, an unemployed welder from Wheatland whose drug addiction and legal problems have drawn national attention since his Siamese twin daughters were born in June, turned himself in to the Newton County Sheriff's Department about 9 p.m. Lakeberg, 26, gave no indication of why he skipped his court hearing.

Lakeberg was sentenced to one year of probation in May for slashing a cousin's hand with a butcher knife in a Christmas Day brawl. Yesterday's hearing in Newton Superior Court was on a request by his probation officer that probation be revoked for drug use. When Lakeberg didn't appear, Judge Daniel Molter issued a warrant for his arrest, and shortly after revoked Lakeberg's probation and sentenced him to a year in jail. Molter said he probably would have ruled differently had Lakeberg appeared. "I was really hoping to learn for the first time from Mr.

Lakeberg why he has set out on this path of self-destruction," he said. "And I was fully prepared to take that into account." 3 He was a native of Casey County and a retired milkman for Oscar Ewing Inc. and the old Plainview Dairy.
