News pick

Fifteen days after he was shot in the chest by a sniper, Nevada District Judge Charles Weller reemerged into public life with a news conference at the National Judicial College. Weller, still recovering from his wounds, seemed more subdued than before the attack. He said he has five entry wounds and believes that he was shot more than once (as opposed to being hit by flying glass). Weller chose his words carefully to avoid saying anything that might undercut the trial of suspect Darren Mack, and he offered sympathy to victim families. His aide Annie Allison, right, injured in the attack on Weller, joined him for the news conference. An interview with Allison is in this week’s <a href=15 Minutes.">
