Jane Roe Arrested: Anti-abortion activist Norma McCorvey, better known as Jane Roe of Roe v. Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973), "was arrested after she and another protester started yelling during the opening statement of Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.)" during the Sotomayor confirmation hearings, reports Paul Kane in the WaPo.
"Two Wrongs... President Obama's high court pick deserves the deference that Sen. Obama failed to show." That's the title of an editorial in the WaPo.
Ohio continues to do remarkably well toward the goal of an effective death penalty. In 1991, Joseph Daron kindly picked up a hitchhiker near Cincinnati. Unknown to him, John Fautenberry had killed before and would kill again. The toll would eventually reach five people in four states. The U.S. Supreme Court denied a stay this morning. No dissent is noted. Justice was finally carried out two hours later. Meghan Barr has this story for AP.
