Indiana Senator Evan Bayh announced at the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis that he will not seek the Democratic nomination for president in 2004. He will consider a second term in the Senate, citing family commitments and the all consuming nature of a presidential campaign. Bayh, 45, has led a centrist, bipartisan path as a former governor and current Senate leader, with his father Birch Bayh having served in the Senate before him.

Duke appeals assault conviction ahead of murder retrial
Gaston County Sheriff deputies returned Duke to Central Prison after a 14 hour trial. He stayed two days in Gaston County Jail before Judge Angela Hoyle maxed the assault sentence at 150 days concurrent with his double death sentence. Sands argued the assault is admissible in future sentencing. Cloninger said it would be inadmissible in future trials. Duke faces a pending Superior Court jury trial and a third murder charge from the January 1999 killing of Larry Eugene Bell.
