Jurors in the Timothy McVeigh trial resume deliberations tomorrow.
They're trying to decide whether McVeigh should die for the Oklahoma City
bombing.

The defense today argued that McVeigh's crime was political-- not like a
serial killers-- and therefore he deserved life in prison, not execution.
In what prosecutors would later liken to a terroristic threat, McVeigh's
lawyer inferred that an execution would threaten what he called domestic

Similarities in two murder cases in Spotsylvania County, may increase the
possibility the victims were killed by the same person.
An autopsy shows 16-year old Sofia Silva had been shaved in the genital area
when her body was found last October.
A Washington television staion quotes sources that 15-year old Kristen Lisk

Her body was found with her 12-year old sister Katie last month.
