r- The Michigan Daily - Friday, March 3, 1995 MITCHELL Continued from page 1 and physical evidence against him. "He was frustrated by being kept in a state of limbo," said Washtenaw County Assistant Public Defender David Lankford. "He wanted person- ally to speak. Now that he's being arraigned, I can see no reason to have another press conference. "I anticipate another round of pre- trial publicity - pretty much starting now," Lankford said. "There had been a round in the first couple of weeks in January which more or less died down. I do think that we're going to see pretty intense scrutiny between now and well, realistically, from now on out." The court also advised Mitchell at the arraignment as to the possible ac- tions the court might take if he is con- victed of sexual assault. Parker said, "If you're bound over to circuit court for trial, you will be required to undergo testing for vene- real disease, hepatitis-B infection, and for the presence of HIV antibodies, if the judge determines there is reason to believe the violation involves sexual penetration or exposure to a bodily fluid of yourself." Charges were not brought in the most recent attack due to lack of DNA evidence on the victim - leading the police to suspect a condom was used. However, the woman's necklace in the incident was missing after the attack. Mitchell pawned a gold necklace in Ypsilanti similar to the victim's, but she could not positively identify the jewelry as her own. DNA evidence will likely play a crucial role in deciding Mitchell's in- nocence or guilt. Two weeks ago, a judge granted the defense's motion to hire an independent expert to conduct further DNA tests on Mitchell's blood samples. Lankford said he already has the name of an expert in mind. "I have talked with him," Lankford said. "I believe he's very honest and straightforward. I feel that we can work well together. I want somebody who's credible." On the advice of his attorney, Mitchell has declined repeatedly to be interviewed by The Michigan Daily. "My opinion is real simple," Lankford said. "I wish (the media) would disappear for a while, so I can do my job without the unnecessary distractions." to.., .,, a7 - , x . 4 _:: 0 Committee OKs state abortion choice States could opt out of providing Medicaid-funded abortions for victims of rape and incest under a measure approved yesterday by the House Appropria- tions Committee. As part of a GOP spending cuts package, the panel voted 33-21 -largely along Republican-Democratic party lines -- to reverse the Clinton administration's policy of mandating that states use Medicaid funds to pa for abortions for poor women who have been victims of violence. "All over this country, persons who are involved in state funding have been petitioning the Clinton administration, urging it to correct this misinterpreta- tion," Rep. Ernest J. Istook (R-Okla.) said of the proposal. Istook said the administration had misread a 1993 law adding rape and incest to saving the life of the mother as exceptions to an 18-year-old prohibition on the use of federal funds to pay for abortions. But opponents called Istook's measure a major rollback of abortion rights aimed at those who are most vulnerable. "States' rights are just a smokescreen to hide the fact that this amendment would deny poor women who are victims of rape and incest the right to an* abortion," said Rep. Nita Lowey (D-N.Y.).

Somalia withdrawal Guns trained to the rear, U.S. Marines backed into the sea yester- day with the remnants of a multina- tional force that fed thousands of So- malis but failed to conquer chaos. The Marines escorted the final U.N. forces from Mogadishu's shores, a quiet end to a two-year intervention that began with a televised invasion and ultimately cost $2 billion and the lives of more than 100 peacekeepers. The last peacekeepers were hur- ried to off-shore battleships. The move of 1,500 American and 350 Italian marines from a small beach cove back to their ships was expected to take most of the night. American Marines landed Mon- day to protect the evacuation of 2,400 Pakistani and Bangladeshi peacekeep- ers, the last in a multinational force that once totaled 38,000 troops from 21 countries. The withdrawal was delayed sev- eral hours when a ferry chartered to pick up the Pakistanis was rammed by a tugboat, damaging its cargo doors. Also U.S. Marines shot at least two Somali militiamen who fired atAmeri- cans from a pickup truck yesterday.

Mark Friedman, Douglas Ka y w w Italian statesman faces Mafia charges Opening a case that could eclipse recent Italian corruption scandals, a judge indicted former Premier Giulio Andreotti on yesterday for allegedly consorting with the Mafia. Andreotti, Italy's leading postwar statesman, is the most senior political 0 figure to face Mafia charges and the wrath of the nation's backlash against the underworld. Prosecutors have portrayed the seven-time premier as a Mafia pro- tector who led a conspiracy of favor- trading during some of the mob's bloodiest years in the 1970s and '80s. - Andreotti says the charges are based on a vendetta against him by Mafia turncoats and former political allies. "I face with bitterness an unfair trial," said Andreotti, who did not attend yesterday's six-hour hearing. If convicted, Andreotti could face up to 20 years in prison, according to Italian news reports. - From Daily wire services r i t i f r r who places Simpson's white Bronco on the street outside his house at the hour prosecutors contend he was kill- ing his ex-wife and her friend two miles away, speeding back and forth in the same vehicle. Physicists isolate 'top 0 quark' at Fermi In what some scientists say could be the last hurrah for groundbreaking U.S. research into the fundamental nature of matter, physicists announced yesterday they have isolated the long- theorized subatomic particle known as the "top quark." The breakthrough came from twc4 teams of physicists working at the Fermi National Laboratory's particle accelerator to isolate the last of six tiny building blocks of matter. "There was this one piece of the puzzle missing," said Stanford Uni- versity physicist Michael Peskin. "You know what shape it is and you know where it goes, but you're not satisfied until you can put it in the right place."9 'OR LD Somalia's political problems, the multinational intervention did end the widespread starvation that, together with war and disease, killed 350,000 Somalis in 1992. lay through Friday during the fall and winter terms by ir fall term, starting in September; via U.S. mail are $90. eptember through April) is $160.
