Paroled killer found guilty in college athlete murder

A paroled killer, 39 year old Arthur Bomar, was convicted of murdering Aimee Willard, a 22 year old lacrosse player for George Mason University. Willard was abducted from her car on a highway off ramp, raped, bludgeoned with a tire iron and dumped in a vacant Philadelphia lot. The jury will decide death penalty or life in prison, with evidence including DNA and inmate testimony.

Army worms devastate South Carolina hay crops

South Carolina farmers report the worst army worm outbreak in 12 years. Clemson entomologist Randy Griffin notes about a quarter of the state's 300000 acres of hay have been infested, with pasture and Bermuda grass fields destroyed in days. Farm owner Tom Carrigan estimates a third of his 450 acres damaged as hot dry conditions and windborne moths from Florida contribute to the spread. Insecticides offer control but at high cost.
