A murder charge in Florida
The decision of Florida's special prosecutor to file a second-degree murder charge against George Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch volunteer who shot to death an unarmed 17-year-old black youth he had followed out of his gated community, marks a needed stand for justice and a welcome challenge to Florida's misbegotten "stand your ground" law.

Chattanooga Police Department still feels loss of Sgt. Tim Chapin one year later
Chattanooga police officer Lorin Johnston will never get over the events of April 2, 2011.
A patrol officer for 17 years, Johnston has responded to murder-suicides. Been shot at. Seen the death of the most vulnerable -- children and the elderly.
And sometimes he imagines things in worst-case scenarios. He recently suffered through a nightmare in which he responded to a traffic crash.
"I was calling for help and no one was coming," he said.
