After tending the Jury home for i
the day, DiQiai ruled that etate po- I
Hot would take ever from the Btrgtn I
County aheriffe officer* and provide j
Mcurity outald* the trial. f
Tttntck police officer Gary
Bpath,31,whoiewhite,ieaccuaed</ 1
rtekleae numelaughter in the April c
10,1900, ahooting of black teenager a
Phillip Pennell of River Edge. 1
Chief Proaecutor Glenn Goldberg r
unauoceeaftilly argued a motion he’d
aaade in Auguafe—that the trial be v
mowed to another county becauee «
Bergen County Sheriff Jack Ter- f
huneieafonnerTeaneck police lieu
tenant and Spath’e friend.
But at a news conference after
ward, Underaheriff Jay Albert de
nied there wae any impropriety.
“The aheriffe department ia a
neutral party in thia trial," he eaid.
"Any implication that tMe depart
ment ia trying to influence the out
come of the trial ia abeurd."
The dieruption came during
Spathic rfxth hour of queetioning by
Goldberg.
Steven McDonald, a former New
York City police officer) wae
wheeled into the court in an elabo
rate wheelchair with Ulb auport
equipment ana cmn-operatea con
trol*.
A taanagar shot McDonald in
1986, paralysing him from th* n*ck
down after th* officer approached
th* suspect in Central Park and
questioned him about stealing bi
cycle*.
Two attendant* wheeled
McDonald down an aide and placed
him directly behind th* defatae
table. The two attendant*—on*
clutching Mu* roeary bead*—*at
down next toM*. Nancy Spath and a
finally priect.
Seeing McDonald, Spath put hi*
(bee in hi* hand*, sniffed and wiped
tears from hi* eye*. Goldberg asked
two more questions, then was
handed a not* by one of his assis
tants.
Goldberg approached DiGisi, who
ordered Jurors out of the courtroom
and then exploded in anger.
"Hehasnorighttobebroughtinto
the courtroom after we started them
owing session,* DiGisi shouted, red
(heed. "It is a terrible thing that ha*
been done. A terrible thing.”
Security has been tight at uw
trial. Each ftunily is given six
passes. Spectators began lining up
for the S8 available seats about 7
No one is allowed to enter the
courtroom after the judge takes the
DKHsi said he sympathised with
McDonald’s tragic injury, but
Masted the sheriffs officer for ad*
mittinghim while Spath was on the
stand, and while doxens of other
people were denied entry because
the courtroom was ftdl.
“Being brought in during cross*
examination, it's obvious why he is
here,” DtGHai said. That to me is
minddMgglinf.*
Outside the courtroom, reporters
ashed McDonald why he showed up.
‘'Concern, that's all,"he said.
McDsnald had offered his prayers
far Spath inagreeting card inlMO,
and had said he wanted to attend
the trial, said defbnse attorney
Robert Qalantusd.
T told him a ikmily pass would be
provided, if necessary," Galantued
said. "Certainly the timing couldn’t
have been worse.”
The victim's mother, Thelma
Pannell. said, *AH of this today is a
setup. This man in the wheelchair is
a hero. Spath, he's just a cold
blooded killer.”
Goldberg protested earlier about
horiffb officers. On Jan. 17, Mslvin
►eBeny was handcuffed and ar
Mtad outride the courtroom for a
rotation violation after ho toatlflod
w the prosecution.
Spath contends he shot Pannell,
8, bocauM the youth had his hand
n a gun in hie coat pocket and wae
bout to shoot him. The state argusa
fennell's hands were raised in sur» ■
»nder.
The shooting touched offs night of
iolence in Teaneck, a racially
dxed suburb 18 miles northeast of

Faye Wattleton UNC-Ch. Speaker
CHAPEL HILL—Faye Wattle
ton, president of Planned Parent
hood Federation of America, Inc.
and outspoken proponent of repro
ductive freedom, spoke at 8 pan.
Monday in Memorial Hall on the
UNC campus. The lecture, titled
"Equality, Justice, and Liberty:
America’s Unfinished Agenda,” is
sponsored by the Carolina Union
Forum Committee.
Planned Parenthood Federation
was founded by Margaret Sanger,
who championed women’s right to
voluntary childbearing, and is re
garded by most Americans as a
provider of gynecological services
and birth control counseling. The
non-profit health-care organisation
serves millions of women annually
at clinics throughout the country.
' Tli* first woman to haad tha
PPPA since Sanger, Wattleton
holds a bachelor’s degree in nursing
from Ohio State University and a
master’s degree in maternal and
influit care, with certification as a
nurse-midwife, from Columbia Uni
versity.
It was while working as a nurse in
Harlem Hospital and as a public
health administrator that she first
saw the desperation and suffering
that resulted from unintended preg
nancies and illegal, unsafe abor
tions. These experiences helped
establish her stated commitment to
assuring that all individuals—par
tidularly the poor and the young
have access to the ftill range of re
productive health options.
