At trial of woman accused of murder in Texas day care fire, mothers testify …
News from Washington Post:

HOUSTON — During often tearful testimony, the mothers of four children who died in a 2011 home day care fire in Houston recounted for jurors on Wednesday the despair and grief they felt in the wake of the deadly blaze.

The parents testified during the first day of the felony murder trial of former day care owner Jessica Tata. She is facing up to life in prison if convicted.

Prosecutors say Tata, 24, put the children in harm’s way by leaving them alone and going shopping. While she was at a nearby Target, a fire broke out in the kitchen when oil in a frying pan on a stovetop burner ignited. Three children were also seriously injured in the February 2011 blaze.

Tata’s attorneys say she didn’t intend to hurt the children.

“It’s heartbreaking. She’s a baby. She didn’t know,” said Kenya Stradford, whose 20-month-old daughter Kendyll died in the blaze.

The mothers told jurors they had trusted Tata, believing their children were safe with her.

Keshia Brown, whose 16-month-old son Elias Castillo died in the fire, testified she was reassured because of the day care’s Christian learning environment.

“She seemed like a nice person, knew what she was doing,” said Brown, 21.

Tata was indicted on nine charges, including four counts of felony murder. She is being tried on one of the murder counts, for Elias’ death.</…………… continues on Washington Post

Students leave with parents after a shooting at Chardon High School on Monday in Chardon, Ohio.

The suspect, believed to be a student, was taken into custody near his car a half-mile from the suburban Cleveland school, the FBI said.

FBI agent Scott Wilson would not comment on a possible motive for the attack.

INDIANAPOLIS—

Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller said he will lobby Congress on Friday against a federal bill he says would strip the telephone privacy rights of residents in his state.

The Republican-backed bill being considered in the U.S. House would allow telemarketers and debt collectors to start dialing residents’ cellphones and, if approved, would override Indiana’s “Do Not Call” law and lead to a flood of robocalls to people’s phones, Zoeller said Wednesday.

AG’s Cell Phone Recycling Drive to Help Domestic Violence Victims
News from Patch.com:

To recognize National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Attorney General Peter F. Kilmartin is holding a cell phone recycling drive to benefit victims of domestic violence and the Rhode Island Coalition Against Domestic Violence (RICADV). 

The drive also disposes of old cell phones in an environmentally safe way.  Throughout the month of October, the public is invited to drop off old and discarded cell phones and cell phone accessories at the Office of Attorney General in Providence and several courthouse offices throughout Rhode Island. 

Cell phones can become an effective tool in the fight against domestic violence.  Instead of being discarded, an old phone can be refurbished and put to good use against domestic abuse through a cell phone recycling program. Cell phones are then reprogrammed and used as 911 Emergency phones for individuals in the community at risk of domestic violence. This communication may provide a critical link between law enforcement and a victi…………… continues on Patch.com
