Judge rules special sentence for sex offenders unconstitutional
A Iowa judge declared the 2005 town law requiring lifetime parole for some sex offenders illegal. The law also imposes a 10 year parole term in addition to regular sentences for lesser offenses like indecent exposure. The ruling notes potential for cascading prison terms on parole violations and cautions against singling out sexual offenses for enhanced parole. The decision followed challenges from defense and state attorneys amid pending related cases.

Prosecution grilled witness on bloodstain theory in Spector case
Los Angeles Times reports forensic pathologist Werner Spitz testifying in the Phil Spector murder trial. Spitz reiterates the defense claim that Lana Clarkson shot herself at Spector's Alhambra home on February 3, 2003, arguing blood spatter and gun residue would differ if Spector had fired the gun. He notes blood evidence on Clarkson and clothing, but says his analysis relies on photos and other experts, not现场 evidence.
