Last month when L.A. Weekly broke the story that a police detective had connected the violent deaths of several prostitutes as the work of one individual, Fresno inmate Roger Hausmann was named as the leading suspect. However, L.A. Weekly revealed Friday that a DNA test has subsequently cleared Hausmann, who remains imprisoned on unrelated charges. "Obviously there is still someone out there," said Captain Ed Winter from the L.A. County coroner’s office.
Sunday's New York Times carried a wedding announcement for Style Weekly Arts Editor Carrie Nieman and her groom, Scott Culpepper; as an online bonus, visitors to the Times' Web site can stream a five-minute "Vows" video and watch the pair recount how they met (at a party) and how he proposed (in Costa Rica). Warning: the romance-averse may need to avert their eyes.
From a collection of "panty-dropping comics" to a philosophical argument that our culture is shifting from material to spiritual, recent books penned by L.A. Weekly contributors are a diverse lot. The paper provides a round-up in its July 5 issue.
Boise Weekly writer Bill Cope addressed his June 28 column to his former boss Andy Hedden-Nicely, who founded the "United Party" in Idaho and is running as its candidate for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. Cope praised Hedden-Nicely as an individual, but suggested that his third-party candidacy was a mistake in judgment. Hedden-Nicely's response in the paper's July 5 issue apes Cope's column structure. "I know you as a man of intelligence and integrity, and I'm confident that when you finally come to your senses and realize that the train has left the station -- that the Democrats are still hiding in the shadows trying to come up with a politically correct response -- you can jump on the United Party train," Hedden-Nicely writes.
