"Newscaster: Dr. Harold Lewin, who was scheduled to go on trial next month for the courtroom shooting of a policeman, has apparently committed suicide, by taking a massive overdose of sleeping pills. Dr. Lewin is the father of 8-year-old Daniel Lewin. Daniel Lewin was one of nine children who have been brutally murdered in what police suspect may be a child pornography ring. Lawrence Monk and Arthur Cooms, who were accused of murdering Dr. Lewins son, were released from custody, and all charges against them were dropped when Judge Steven Hardin ruled that a crucial piece of evidence linking them to the murdered child could not be used in the trial. When the ruling was announced by Judge Hardin in court, Dr. Lewin allegedly tried to shoot Monk and Cooms. In the ensuing struggle, a police officer was wounded. Dr. Lewin left a note asking his wife Carol to please forgive him."
