New Trial Ordered in Man's Killing of Detective
A Texas appeals court ordered a new trial for Willie James Washington after ruling prosecutor Ted Poe’s closing argument used an imaginary Christmas card from detective Victor Wells to appeal to jurors emotions. The 14th Court of Appeals found the tactic grossly improper and reversed the December 1980 voluntary manslaughter conviction and seven year sentence. Washington, free on appeal bond, had killed Wells on an East End street after a traffic incident.

AT&T Divestiture Plan Reshapes Texas Phone Service
Federal court divestiture will let seven companies including Southwestern Bell provide local and some in-state long distance service. AT&T gains all out-of-state long distance revenues and about 80 percent of Texas long distance. American Bell Inc. will handle telephone equipment sales and leasing. Roth cites monthly residential costs near 30 dollars with 18 from tolls and 2 from ancillary charges, while business customers pay about 24 dollars. The company notes a 40 dollar monthly cost with tolls covering the remainder and explores pay-per-call options to offset potential local rate increases after a prior 471.5 million request granted about half by the Public Utilities Commission.
