FDA approves first human embryonic stem cell trials
The FDA said Geron Corp will begin the nation’s first human clinical trials using embryonic stem cells in a spinal cord injury study.

He cites due process concerns and seeks to rally support by likening his case to a cowboy falsely accused, as his defense attorney withdraws and a court allows FBI wiretap records to be heard.

Staunton ice cream killings tied to 1967 hate taunts
Sharron Diane Crawford Smith confessed in a terminal illness last November to shooting two co workers in 1967 after they mocked her for being lesbian. She died last Monday four days after making the claim, and investigators seek to corroborate whether detective David Bocock helped bury the pistol.
