A federal jury deliberated for five days before finding Knox NOT guilty on all counts... at least the ones they could agree on. The jury was unable to reach a verdict on the racketeering and fraud charges. As Keith Humphry reports, that sets up the prospect of another trial.

Though she'd been a Knox patient, too, she testified for the government. The death of her brother constituted one of the principle charges. [23:25] ((THIS IS SO UNFAIR.

Most of the counts against Knox Office Manger Beverly Boone were resolved in her favor. She was acquitted on all the rest, though, she too still faces re-trial for racketeering. The jury was unable to reach a verdict in any of the counts against counselor Bill James. [1:45:25] ((I THOUGHT THE EVIDENCE CAME OUT FAVORABLY, AND I THINK HE IS IN FACT INNOCENT.

Radford's Police Chief and two police officers have been indicted on misdemeanor charges following a state police investigation.
Chief Wesley Terry is charged with petit (petty) larceny, malfeasance (mal-FEE-since) in office and three counts of obtaining criminal history information under a false pretense.
Officers Peter Rutzinski and Christopher Caldwell were each indicted for a single offense of malfeasance in office.
According to a news release from special prosecutor Fred King, the indictments allege that the three officers conducted a search without a proper warrant, and that chief Terry took a knife and sheath from the residence.
All three have been placed on administrative leave.

Six months before devastating wildfires began in Southern California, leaders in that state warned that beetle infested trees had become a fire hazard.
(------------)
[VO-NAT]
Governor Gray Davis sent a letter to President Bush in April calling the trees "an immediate threat to lives" and said " a major fire could quickly move from the mountains to residential areas." The U-S Forest Service agreed that the beetle infested trees were a major problem. Davis asked for 430 million dollars in disaster relief to bulldoze the trees. No response for six months, but last Friday, the request was denied -- the same time Southern California was in smoke.

One last racing note, Kevin Harvick held off Ted Musgrave to win the NASCAR Craftsman Trucks Series Silverado 150 at Phoenix. Harvick held a .93 second lead over Musgrave, the pole winner. Jon Wood, another rock solid performance. He finished 10th after starting 7th and is fifth in points with one race left.

But not one West Virginia man- Ric Griffith carves more than 2-thousand gourds to welcome trick or treaters.
Jack o Lanterns are everywhere .. on the roof, in the yard and even stacked up in rows lining his property.
He does it with the help of 100 volunteers.

And when the jack o lanterns are lit up, it is quite a sight- you can see jack o lanterns lit up from every angle.

No wonder Ric Griffith is known as the pumpkin man. (------------)
