In case Bikies haven't seen the paper today, there is some depressing
news. But in a nice coincidence (or maybe smart editorial placement),
there is also an excellent editorial by Chuck Strawser.
First, the bad news. Both the Cap Times and State Journal report a
mistrial because of a hung jury in the trial of Tracy Sorum, the
motorist that hit and killed Jessica Bullen almost exactly one year ago.
The DA is trying to decide whether to retry the case. The comments by
the defense attorney just make me ill. Here are the links:

Then, the better news. Chuck Strawser wrote an excellent editorial that
was published in the Cap Times today. Maybe it was always planned for
today, but I also wonder if the editorial staff looked at the news
section, and thought this would be a good counter balance.
Anyway, take a look, and kudos to Chuck.
