Trial begins in killing of four American churchwomen
Five former National Guardsmen sit accused in the 1980 murder of Ursuline nun Dorothy Kael and three other women near ZacatecolucaEl Salvador. Prosecutors seek conviction amid U S pressure on aid and security concerns while defense cites insufficient evidence and potential acquittal threats. The case, tied to Salvadoran politics and rights groups, opens after years of delays with jurors under guard.
