women’s wisdom and spirituality,

women’s issues.
“The reason for me even pursu
ing this is because I can’t deny the
fact that I am a woman and 1 think
it’s important for me to accept re

AUSTIN (AP) — Parents of the
four girls killed in the city’s notori
ous yogurt shop murders said yes
terday they thought the case would
remain unsolved.
“One day, whoever did it would
probably have to answer for it, but
we wouldn’t know about it,” Pam
Ayers, whose 13-year-old daughter,
Amy, was one of four teen-age girls
shot in the head during a Dec. 6,
1991, robbery, said. “I don’t think
it will be real to me until we actu
ally see the men and have an in
dictment in the case.”
After chasing leads for eight
years, police arrested four sus
pects Wednesday.
Police in Charleston, WVa., ar
rested Robert Burns Springsteen Jr.,
24. Michael James Scott, 25, of Buda,
Texas, was arrested near Austin.
Maurice Pierce, 24, was arrested in
Lewisville, north of Dallas, and For
rest Wellborn, 23, was picked up in
Lockhart, southeast of Austin.
All have been charged with cap
ital murder in the deaths of Ayers;
Eliza Hope Thomas, 17; and sisters
Jennifer Harbison, 17, and Sarah
Harbison, 15.
Each girl was shot at the I Can’t

NEWS
IN BRIEF
Jury to decide fate
of accused officers
GALVESTON (AP) — Jurors today
will decide the fate of three Brazoria
County officers accused of mistreat
ing an inmate during a videotaped jail
shakedown three years ago.
Former K-9 deputy David Cisneros,
former jailer Wilton David Wallace and
jailer Robert Percival face up to 10
years in prison and a $250,000 fine
if convicted of violating the civil rights
and causing bodily injury to Missouri
inmate Toby Hawthorne.
The three men could get probation
or up to a year in jail if convicted of
lesser misdemeanor charges not al
leging bodily injury. Former Lt. Lester
Arnold, who used a stun gun on the
inmates, pleaded guilty to this re
duced charge last week to avoid trial.
Final testimony in the trial yester
day came from Cisneros, who said
he did not intend for his police dog
to attack any inmates. He also ad
mitted his written report on the inci
dent contained several inaccuracies.
