From the "what the...?" Department

Article in todays paper: Alaskan William Osborne says he's the victim of mistaken identity and a DNA test will prove it. However, Alaska is the only state that hasn't even tried to use DNA technology to see if it might have gotten a conviction wrong and has refused to revisit his case. They argue that Osborne recieved a fair trial and that should end it.

One question comes to mind... If officials are so sure they convicted the right man, then they should welcome the DNA test to further prove his guilt. What do they have to lose?

Article in todays paper: Police in Kettering Ohio have charged a woman with child-endangering after it was reported that she was seen breast-feeding her child and talking on the phone...while driving.

One question comes to mind... What WAS she thinking? Oh, right... she wasn't.
