Families seek settlement in WWII land dispute over Camp Breckinridge
Morganfield Kentucky reports families displaced in 1941 for Camp Breckinridge now seek a share of more than 30 million dollars in profits from gas and oil finds. A judge showed preliminary support but mediation by Sandra Day O Connor failed to resolve the case. Heirs, represented by Steven Pitt, argue government promises to return the land after the war were not honored.

FBI Agent Gives Bank Robbers Colorful Nicknames
In the Los Angeles bureau covering Ventura County, FBI special agent Stephen May assigns vivid monikers to stickup artists. He cites the Irreconcilable Differences Bandit, the Preppie Bandit, and the Budweiser Bandit as examples, created to reflect motives, attire, or divorces. The practice aims to flag patterns across serial holdups and draw public attention to ongoing cases.

Moderates win as Baptists back faith statement 2000
In San Antonio delegates to the Southern Baptist Convention voted 58 to 42 to approve using the Baptist Faith and Message 2000 as the standard for determining who is a Baptist in good standing. Backers say the move curbs litmus tests while conservatives warn the measure is confusing. The vote, seen as a key moment in the denomination’s conservative shift, leaves hiring decisions to SBC trustees and has sparked debate over tongues and private prayer language.
