Huffington Post: Ronell Wilson, Convicted Of Killing Two NYPD Officers, Remains In Legal Limbo

Posted: 02 Sep 2012 09:18 AM PDT

NEW YORK -- Ronell Wilson's arduous legal odyssey began nearly a decade ago when, as young gang member, he was arrested in one of New York City's most notorious police killings: the point-blank execution of two undercover officers in an illegal gun sting gone awry.

A jury convicted Wilson in federal court in Brooklyn in 2006, then sentenced him to death a few weeks later in 2007. But in 2010, an appeals court tossed out the sentence, meaning a new jury would have to decide his fate.

Huffington Post: Antonio Villaraigosa Boosts Standing With Stint As Chair Of The Democratic National Convention

Huffington Post: Obama Advisers Don't Say Yes When Asked If People Are Better Off

Posted: 02 Sep 2012 09:24 AM PDT

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- When asked on Sunday talk shows if Americans are better off today than they were four years ago, senior advisers to President Barack Obama didn't say yes.

On "Fox News Sunday," host Chris Wallace asked David Axelrod, "Can you honestly say the average American is better off today than four years ago?"

"Here's what I can say, Chris," answered Axelrod, who advises Obama's reelection campaign. "We are in a better position than we were in the economy in the sense that when the president took office, we were losing 800,000 jobs a month, and the quarter before he took office was the worst since the Great Depression. We are [now] in a different place: 29 straight months of job growth and private sector jobs. Are we where we need to be? No."
