...Russ & Bo Show, a talk-radio program broadcast in the evening over WTKS-FM in Orlando, Florida, usually concerns itself with "women and beer," as one of the hosts, Russ Rollins, puts it. But on Sept. 25, the show addressed the subject of child abuse, commemorating the death exactly 14 years earlier of Ursula Sunshine Assaid. When she was five years old, Ursula was tortured and killed by her mother's boyfriend, Donald McDougall. The murder still causes bitterness in Orlando, and on the anniversary, the Russ & Bo Show devoted five hours to it. Between phone calls, Rollins graphically described...
...charge is not without weight. Since the collapse of the U.S.S.R., Bubka has become the most successful pitchman to emerge from the wreckage of the Soviet sports machine, striking a fat endorsement deal with Nike that has made his face as familiar to Europeans as Bo Jackson's and Michael Jordan's are to Americans. Marketing savvy has served Bubka well, establishing him not only as a man of the world record, but also as a man of the world, who maintains for his family a pied-a-terre in Berlin, a condo in Monaco and an apartment...
...federal agents will have the same impact on the militia movement as the sieges at Waco and Ruby Ridge, says TIME's Patrick Dawson. Duke, who is held in high esteem by most members of the Patriot movement, engineered the meetings after other intermediaries, including right-wing activist James "Bo" Gritz, had failed to end a standoff that has stretched in to its eighth week. Dawson says that neither Gritz nor Duke were persuaded that the Freemen were negotiating in earnest. For the Freemen, there may be no incentive to give up peacefully, Dawson notes. Most members of the group...
JORDAN, Montana: James "Bo" Gritz, a leader of the right-wing "Patriot" movement, ended his negotiations this morning with a group of some 20 Freemen who have barricaded themselves on their Montana ranch. After hinting yesterday that a possibly peaceful solution was near, Gritz now says that the Freemen have retrenched, and that a solution no longer seems near. Leaders of the group, wanted on several state and federal fraud and harassment charges, reportedly had been receptive to a deal under which the state of Montana would drop its charges if the group surrendered within 24 hours. But apparently they...
JORDAN, MONTANA: With the standoff in Montana between federal agents and the freemen entering its fifth week, it's time to call in the heavy-duty negotiators. Enter James "Bo" Gritz, former Green Beret colonel and a leading figure in the far right "patriot" movement. After three days of meeting with the remaining fugitives in their cabin, Gritz and Jack McLamb brought back a 26-page document of what Gritz called "legal mumbo-jumbo." The Freemen authored document challenges the constitutionality of the FBI, the Internal Revenue Service, and other branches of government. Gritz announced the Freemen are prepared...
