Worth jury convicts skinhead for drive-by slaying of black man THE ASSOCIATED PRESS FORT WORTH - An 18-year- old skinhead convicted in a black man's drive-by slaying was hand ed a 10-year suspended sentenced Tuesday. The jury's decision sparked im mediate outcry from the Metro- plex's black leaders. "Black folks' lives still ain't worth a damn in Texas," said Dal las County Commissioner John Wiley Price. "I'm mad as hell." "Until black folks start taking to the streets, nothing is going to happen." Christopher William Brosky's mother testified in the punish ment phase of her son's murder trial. Prosecutors did not call any witnesses, and both sides rested late Tuesday morning, said a spokesman for state District Judge Everett Young. "I don't know why he got what he got," Carolyn Thomas, widow of Donald Thomas, said of the jury's sentence. "But I'm go ing to keep moving on and keep fighting because I know one day I'm going to win somehow." Brosky faced punishment rang ing from probation to life impris onment tor the 1991 attack on Thomas, who was killed by a shotgun blast as he sat on a flatbed truck drinking beer with some white friends in Arlington. "I'm totally shocked and dis appointed," said Willie Starr, a member of the NAACP in Fort Worth. "Only when something like this happens in your back yard can you understand what happened in Los Angeles in the King trial." Brosky, who is white, showed little emotion Monday as Young announced the verdict, but later burst into tears as he hugged his mother and his girlfriend. Mrs. Thomas said she was pleased with Monday's verdict. "If you believe in the Lori he'll make things happen for you and he did," said Mrs. Thomas. Trial testimony showed tha! Brosky and two other skinheads, William George "Trey" Roberts III and Joshua Hendry, bothl/, had planned a drive-by shootin| tne morning of June 7,1991. Roberts, who has admitted ht fired the shotgun blast that killed Thomas, and Hendry have boll pleaded guilty to the murder Roberts was certified to stand trial as an adult and received a 40-yeai sentence in exchange for his testi mony. Hendry pleaded guilty injuvs- nile court and received a 15-yeai sentence that will be reviewed ii June when he turns 18. Meanwhile, Hendry was held at the Lynn Ross Juvenile Deten tion Center. Both Hendry and Roberts testi fied against Brosky during the tri al. News Briefs FBI doubts alibi in minister’s case SAN ANTONIO (AP) - An FBI affidavit filed Tuesday in the attempted murder trial of former Dallas minister Walker Railey casts new suspicions on Railey's whereabouts the night his wife was attacked. The document says Railey was nowhere near the Southern Methodist University campus but only 2.25 miles from his own home when he placed a mobile phone call now critical to the state's case. Prosecutors maintain the April 22, 1987, phone call lies at the heart of an alibi Railey de vised to cover his activities that night. It was this call, recorded on his home answering machine, that Railey said was made about 10:30 p.m. while he\was driving between libraries on the SMU campus. Tne swbm FBI affidavit says in fact the call was placed at 12:04 a.m. and Railey was 6.5 miles from the campus. The document was attached to a defense motion to suppress DNA test results the state hopes will show that Railey wrote a series of threatening letters to himself shortly before the as sault on his wife. Prosecutors insist the letters also were part of a complex sell erne to divert suspicion else where once he disposed of his wife. Cult leader still rejects FBI offers WACO (AP) — Doomsday cult leader David Koresh contin ues to reject FBI concessions, in cluding an offer of a national ra dio pulpit when he surrenders to authorities who have surrounded the Branch Davidian compound for 24 days. Koresh had until noon Tuesday to accept the FBI's offer of access to the Christian Broadcasting Net work on his surrender, but the deadline passed without word from inside the Mount Carmel compound. "He will probably not be able to get as generous a response from us (again)," FBI special agent Bob Ricks said. The agreement, which included assurances Koresh would be able to contact his followers in the McLennan County Jail, was dis missed "out of hand," during ne gotiations Monday, Ricks saick "Basically he said it's not worth the paper it's printed on," Ricks said. Although Koresh rejected the radio outlet, one of his followers calleLl a Dallas radio station to give his version of the Feb. 28 raid by agents of the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. NEW YORK (AP) - The al leged ringleader of the terrorist gang that bombed the World Trade Center has been arrested overseas, ABC-TV reported Tuesday night. ABC reported on its "Night- line" program that U.S. agents had flown to "a foreign country" to ar rest Mahmoud Abouhalima. The network said a government official had asked it not to identify the country to protect the agents' Safe ty- Two other suspects will be ar rested in the United States in the next few days, completing the "nu cleus" of the group that plotted the bombing, ABC said. It did not identify any of its sources by name. WNBC-TV, also quoting unidentified sources, reported on its local newscast that Abouhali ma, a New Jersey taxi driver, would be arraigned Wednesday. Asked about the reports, f?I spokesman Steve Markardt said. "I don't know what's goingoal have nothing on this." Earlier Tuesday/ FBI agent James Esposito said more bomb ing suspects may still be loose in the United States. Esposito, who heads the FBI's Newark, N.J., of fice, said investigators have nar rowed their list of remaining sus pects. Officer tells jurors King used drugs LOS ANGELES (AP) - The policeman who supervised the Rodney King beating roared like a lion on the witness stand Tues day to imitate King's reaction to being shocked with an electronic stun gun. He also said he was sure King was on PCP. Sgt. Stacey Koon told jurors he decided to tire his Taser gunat King after King threw five offi cers off his Ij^ck. . 1 "When I saw that move, thai was 100 percent confirmation that Rodney King was on PCP," said Koon. "T believed he had thrown approximately 800 pounds of officers off his back." Although toxicological tests showed no trace of PCP in King's system, the defense maintains of ficers were justified in treating him as a drug suspect because of his behavior. The drug can give users superhuman strength. Koon, Officers Laurence Pow ell and Theodore Briseno and for mer Officer Timothy Wind, who are white, are accused of violat ing the black motorist's federal civil rights in the March 3,1991, videotaped beating after officers had chased his speeding car. The officers' acquittal of most brutality charges after a state trial set off deadly riots in die city. Agents find third suspect in bombing Yeltsin Continued from Page 1 through his U.S.-backed reform programs. Kozyrev insisted: "Everything is OK and under control." He said ways will be sought for coopera tion among democrats, "with a small and with a capital D," in Moscow and in Washington. After lunch with Christopher at the State Department, the foreign minister went on to meet with Secretary of Defense Les Aspin at the Pentagon and then with House Speaker Thomas S. Foley, Senate Democratic Leader George J. Mitchell and Senate Republican Leader Robert Dole of Kansas on Capitol Hill. Next month, the Clinton ad ministration will ask Congress to approve a large boost in U.S. tech nical aid to Russia, from $417 mil lion to about $700 million. Kozyrev is due to see Clinton at the White House on Wednesday, when a decision is likely on whether the April 3-4 summit now scheduled for Vancouver, Canada, will be shifted. Moving it to Moscow would allow Yeltsin to maintain a close watch on his op ponents' efforts to reverse his as sumption of special powers and to derail the April 25 national refer endum he proposes to gain the people's endorsement. Clinton said he might speak to Yeltsin about the summit site and date after getting "a direct, first hand appraisal" from Kozyrev, at the moment, the president said, there was no request to make a change.
