Affluent Americans hit hard by Clinton tax bill
Affluent Americans saw a 16 percent rise in their 1993 tax liability, with those earning $100,000 or more owing $31 billion more than in 1992. The Clinton plan aimed to shift the burden to high earners, adding new brackets of 36 percent and 39.6 percent, while many other brackets were largely unchanged.

Dahmer's brain kept for study as body lies in freezer
In Madison the brain of Jeffrey Dahmer is stored in a jar for potential scientific study while his body remains frozen until the murder trial of the alleged killer concludes. Dahmer, convicted of killing 16 men and boys in cannibalistic acts, died in prison and was reportedly killed by inmate Christopher Scarver. No trial date was set. In Chicago a mother, Deborah Turner, 35, allegedly hurled her 16 month old son Tyler Marshall from an eighth floor window after he wouldn't stop crying, the infant dying outside Robert Taylor Homes. Turner was charged with first degree murder and jailed without bail.
