...female agent has been murdered, and her colleague Dakota Whitney (Amanda Peet) has enlisted Mulder and Scully to help her find the killer. One clue comes from visions of the murder claimed by Father Joe (Billy Connolly), a Catholic priest who had been convicted of sexually abusing dozens of altar boys decades before.

It is widely believed that Noriega forced Panamanian President Nicolas Ardito Barletta to resign after Barletta signaled his intention to investigate Spadafora's murder.

Even as she admitted injecting John Belushi with heroin-and-cocaine ''speedballs'' on the night before his death in 1982, onetime Singer Cathy Evelyn Smith, 39, insisted she was innocent of murder. Smith and her lawyers argued that as Belushi's companion in his final days, she had acted at the 33- year-old comedian's urging. In Los Angeles last week, Smith's legal battle ended in a compromise. Prosecutors dropped a second-degree murder charge against the Canadian-born defendant in exchange for her plea of no contest to a count of involuntary manslaughter and three counts...
