SPRINGFIELD - A former employee of the DeWitt County circuit clerk's office has filed a federal lawsuit alleging malicious prosecution in connection with criminal charges filed against her and later dropped. Susan Stevens, 55, of Clinton is seeking more than $100,000 in damages from DeWitt County, former Circuit Clerk Kathy Weiss, former Assistant State's Attorney Andrew Killian, current State's Attorney Richard Koritz and state police investigator Ryan Buehenrkemper.
After seven days of trial, a woman suing the Sonnenschein law firm and two lawyers for malicious prosecution decided it was time to quit. The jury trial, which was in Judge David Mason's courtroom, began Dec. 6 and ended the morning of Dec. 15 when Monnye Gross said she no longer wanted to pursue the case. The parties provided mutual releases of liability and went their separate ways, said Steven H. Schwartz, who represented one of the defendant lawyers.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ --Sudan is appalled by and condemns the malicious accusations leveled against it regarding an alleged bombing that occurred within the borders of Southern Sudan. It comes as little surprise that even in the virtual absence of both evidence and motive, that the usual anti-Sudan characters are already seeking to pin the incident on their traditional object of scorn. It is important at the outset to recall that Sudan was the first to recognize the independence of Southern Sudan. The national army, therefore, in recognition of the sovereignty of the country strictly observes the borders.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 15, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The US Committee for Camp Ashraf Residents (USCCAR) deplores Elizabeth Rubin's unfounded and malicious assertions against the main Iranian opposition movement, the Mujahedin-e Khalq (PMOI/MEK) and its 3400 members in Camp Ashraf in Iraq. The piece appeared in the Review and Outlook section of the Times on August 14. The latest in the venomous anti-MEK smear campaign by the pro- Tehran lobby inside the Beltway, the piece represents a desperate, albeit futile, attempt to block, in contravention of the Rule of law and the statutory requirements, the removal of the MEK from the State Department's list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTO).
Charleston's police chief is tired of the city's West Side getting a bad rap. I'm very sick of hearing that nobody cares about the West Side," Webster said. "Like any part of town, it has its bad moments, but there really are still good things going on over there.
The Sun Journal on April 16 showed a screaming bias against conservative political activity. There had been very well-attended demonstrations in dozens of large cities, such as Atlanta, against the obscene, excessive spending by the federal government. Those peaceful demonstrations on the afternoon and evening of April 15 involved tens of thousands of patriotic citizens who believe that both the Bush and Obama administrations lost every shred of fiscal common sense. I believe that most taxpayers are outraged at the spending of billions of dollars for bailouts and stimulus to the economy. Yet, the only story I could find in the Sun Journal was a small story buried on the business page. A couple lines did take note of the fact that the demonstrations were nationwide, but the Sun Journal p...
A pathologist could not claim an absolute privilege from liability when sued for preparing an allegedly erroneous autopsy report that resulted in the plaintiff's criminal prosecution, the Nebraska Supreme Court has ruled in reversing a dismissal. The plaintiff was a daycare operator who was charged with felony child abuse following the death of an infant in her care. The criminal charge was based on an autopsy report prepared by the defendant, a pathologist who worked for the state crime lab. The defendant's autopsy report indicated that the child had died from blunt force trauma related to child abuse.
