...President of Ethiopia From 1977 to 1991, he ruled supreme. Now he is Addis Ababa's most reviled criminal defendant. Five years after he was driven out of his country by rebels, Ethiopia's Red Terror despot is being tried on charges of murder and genocide--in absentia. The guest of Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe since 1991 (apparently in gratitude for the help he gave Mugabe's independence struggle in the 1970s), Mengistu lives in luxurious exile in a government-supplied villa in an exclusive suburb of Harare, Zimbabwe's capital, safe from repeated extradition requests. He remains in virtual...
LONDON: Home video host and sometime CNN call-in guest O.J. Simpson is taking his case overseas. In what's being proudly billed as his first public appearance since the verdict, Simpson will speak at England's venerable Oxford Union on May 14th.

On the MTV show Jake, who has dressed up his "set" with a new comforter, sits smugly self-assured in oversize pants and Airwalks and asks people like Adam Sandler who their favorite character was on What's Happening! ("I've had on every guest I've wanted," Jake bragged to TIME. Oddly, his wish list has so far been mostly limited to former cast members of Saturday Night Live.) In one episode, for no apparent reason, he showed a clip from the 1979 film The Warriors. Occasionally, Jake has his best friend, Frankie...
...Thursday night, dozens of FBI agents celebrated at the Seven-Up Guest Ranch a few miles from Lincoln--which has become their temporary headquarters. They are sure they have their man. They believe they have not only stopped an 18-year crime spree but also bagged an exceptional specimen: the brilliant sociopath who made himself virtually invisible. Says Ken Thompson: "The boys in the basement at Quantico are going to spend years studying this case...
