...government of Prime Minister José María Aznar mislead the public about who was behind the blasts? New evidence suggests it may have. At 1:30 p.m. on 3/11, just six hours after bombs exploded on four Madrid commuter trains, killing 191, then Interior Minister Angel Acebes told a press conference that Spanish police and his Ministry had "no doubt that the [Basque] terrorist gang ETA is responsible for this attack."

"The difference between this and my last prison, where I was mixed in with violent criminals, is heaven and hell," says Dana Chaison, 51, a convicted drug offender and Roman Catholic. "It's kind of hard to focus on your rehab when you're always watching your back." Bossard Shawn, 32, says he saw his Muslim chaplain so infrequently at his former...
