Clymer reminded jurors of the pain and injuries described by King on the stand but said he offered no excuses for the motorist, who admitted he was drunk and driving too fast the night of the beating.
Final cases being made in King trial
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — A prosecutor portrayed four policemen yesterday as pitiless brutes who inflicted street justice on Rodney King. But a defense lawyer called them "sacrificial lams" and suggested King was to blame for last year's riots.
're nie on a helm," said Clymer. "but he's not a monster, a hulk or a ' Tasmanian devil." descriptions used by Koon. "He's a human being."
During closing arguments in the officers' federal trial, Assistant U.S. Attorney Steven Clemner said the four word "far beyond" the force necessary to arrest King.
Defense lawyer Ira Salzman told jurors that the officers had been denied a tool to subdue suspects when the police department had restricted use of the controversial chokehold but had never replaced it with another technique.
"These defendants taught Rodney King a lesson." Clymer said. He added that they had concocted elaborate lies to cover up their misdeeds.
Clymer's and Salzman's summations lasted about three hours each, pushing back the other three defense lawyers' closing arguments and government rebuttal to today and possibly delaying the judge's instructions to the jury until Saturday.
He accused Officer Laurence Powell of pummeling King excessively, bashing in his face, then filing a false report. He depicted Sgt. Stacey Koon as abandoning his duty to stop the beating.
Shuttle liftoff successful
Discovery to study Earth's ozone layer on eight-day mission
The Associated Press
SPACE CENTER, Houston — Space shuttle Discovery rocketed into orbit with five astronauts yesterday on a mission to measure Earth's shrinking ozone layer.
The shuttle rose on time from its seaside pad at Cape Canaveral, Fla., at 12:29 a.m. NASA has sent up shuttles in dark eight times.
It was the space agency's second attempt to launch Discovery; the first launch was aborted 11 seconds before liftoff Tuesday.
"If at first you don't succeed, wait for a couple of days and try it again," said Brewster Shaw, NASA's deputy shuttle director.
Space shuttle Discovery lights up the sky as it rises from its launch pad in Cape Canaveral, Fla. A five-man crew aboard the craft, which took off early yesterday, will study the earth's shrinking ozone layer.
Discovery's eight-day mission is the second in a series of shuttle missions devoted to atmospheric research
Crew members planned within a few hours to begin collecting data on the ozone layer, a shield against harmful ultraviolet rays. Scientists believe the ozone layer is shriveling because of pollution and possibly natural causes.
The flight's timing is crucial. Scientists want to measure ozone at the northern latitudes during the winter-to-spring transition, when ozone losses seem to occur. They also want to catch sunrise in the Northern Hemifor Discovery, NASA's most traveled shuttle.
The shuttle is scheduled to land April 16 at Cape Cameral.
AIDS confusion prompts contraceptive labels
The Associated Press
health, said the new labels were needed because "there is a great deal of confusion out there" about what types of birth control protect against infection.
WASHINGTON — The Food and Drug Administration imposed tough labeling rules on contraceptive manufacturers yesterday, forcing them to spell out a product's inability to prevent sexually transmitted diseases.
The FDA strengthened its regulations as part of a campaign to educate the public, because, it said, high-risk sexual behavior still is prevalent, particularly among adolescents and young adults.
One in four people in the United States gets a sexually transmitted disease at some time in their life, and there are 12 million new cases each, according to one recent study. Ruth Merkatz, FDA's special assistant for women's
Merkat said one young AIDS victim in San Francisco expressed confusion about how she had gotten AIDS because she always had taken birth control pills.
The new FDRA rules require some contraceptives to state on the package that the products are intended to prevent pregnancy and do not protect against HIV infection and other diseases. That labeling will apply to oral contraceptives, implants such as Norplant, injectable contraceptives such as Depo Provera, natural-skin condoms and intrauterine devices.
