Olympian testifies on stalker fear and evidence in case
Olympian Shawn Johnson described fear of a stalker as prosecutors showed a knife found in a man's ear and weapons in his car. Prosecutors accuse Robert O'Ryan of breaking onto a studio lot and pursuing Johnson, who testified she did not know him. O'Ryan pleads not guilty by reason of insanity to stalking and burglary. Separately, the Senate rejected a move to curb EPA authority over greenhouse gas rules, a vote seen as a barometer for climate legislation.
