Rosalie Ritz, a courtroom artist who for four decades chronicled dozens of high-drama trials, including those of Charles Manson, Patty Hearst and O.J. Simpson, died Friday in Walnut Creek, Calif., after a battle with lung cancer. She was 84. Ritz's work was seen on network TV and on the AP wires, beginning with the infamous Army-McCarthy hearings in the 1950s.
Cardinal Alfonso Lopez Trujillo, a Colombian prelate who helped lead the Vatican's campaign against abortion and who insisted that condoms do not prevent HIV transmission, died Saturday at the Pius XI private clinic in Rome, where he had been admitted for tests. He was 72.
