This afternoon... after a short hearing in Juvenile Court... murder charges
were dismissed.

Keith, we should point out that last week we reported that a team of
psychiatrists from U- V- A Medical Center found that the 8- year- old was
incapable of standing trial.
No one at today's hearing would discuss the evidence presented... but we do
know the court was waiting for a second opinion before it made a decision on
whether or not to proceed with the case.
That decision was made in just 45 minutes this afternoon as the charges
against the boy were dismissed.
But the child's attorney believes even if this case HAD gone to trial... the
boy would have been cleared anyway. (/////SOT/////)

Norfolk Southern is one of our area's biggest employers, an active corporate

Norfolk and Western Railway.
And yet while N-S is generally held in high regard in the community, its
railroad employees are subjected to a practice many regard as outdated and
unsanitary. N-S calls it the "dry hopper" system, and it's not a pleasant
subject matter.
