...grandson left her with third-degree burns on nearly 90 percent of her body. Twelve-year-old Malcolm Shabazz, who reeked of gasoline when he was arrested Sunday, will undergo a psychiatric evaluation before being arraigned Tuesday. "There were problems there with that child," family lawyer Percy Sutton told the Associated Press. "He's a bright young man, but there were some troubles there." The boy allegedly set the fire because he was angry that he had to live with his grandmother; he had been sent to the co-op apartment in Westchester County three weeks...
...deceitful behavior in matters romantic and sexual occurs every day in civilian life. It elicits responses ranging from sympathy to "Boy, are you stupid" to higher ratings for your talk show--a potential silver lining for Kathie Lee Gifford. Much of this happens at work because, to paraphrase Willie Sutton, that's where the opposite sex is. The question is, How much can--or should--an employer try to control it? There has to be a stricter standard in the life-and-death military, but something is out of kilter when two married executives at ABC have an affair...
...Ozell Sutton was one of three agents from the Community Relations Service of the U.S. Justice Department who were at the motel that evening.

Neither of them saw anything, says Sutton, but he's troubled by the fact that the FBI never tried...
...posthumous assault continues in Richard Pollak's The Creation of Dr. B. (Simon & Schuster; 478 pages; $28), a glum prosecutor's brief that is the second life of Bettelheim to be published within a year. A prolix psychobiography by Anglo-French journalist Nina Sutton, Bettelheim: A Life and A Legacy (Basic-Books; 606 pages; $35), covered the same ground but more sympathetically...
...Unlike Sutton, Pollak, a former editor for the Nation, met Dr. B. The writer's younger brother Stephen spent five years at the Orthogenic School before his accidental death in 1948. Meeting some 20 years later, Bettelheim loftily informed Pollak that his father had been an ineffective "schlemiel," that his Medea-like mother was wholly to blame for Stephen's emotional ills and, quite falsely, that the brother had committed suicide. No wonder Pollak left that encounter mentally comparing Bettelheim to "the evil Doctor Sivana, arch-nemesis of Captain Marvel...
