Prosecutor Adelman detailed deadly intent while defense attorney Fuller argued Hinckley lives in a self made reality. The case likely goes to the jury Friday as the trial pauses for a cold courtroom and a brief recess.

Celanese Fate Drives Giles County Economy
The Giles County area relies on Celanese Fibers Co. as the region's main employer. About 400 Celanese workers were furloughed amid weak demand for tricot and weaving yarns and cigarette filter materials, with 1,800 still on the job at the Narrows Pearlsburg plant. Plant officials say layoffs are scattered, with 70 of the furloughs in recent weeks. Local officials urge economic diversification to prevent overreliance on a single firm.
