In New York City, a grand jury indicted police Sergeant Hugh Barry on a murder charge Wednesday in the fatal shooting of 66-year-old African American Deborah Danner last October. Danner had mental health issues, including schizophrenia. Police say she was shot and killed in her own home in the Bronx after a neighbor called 911. When police arrived, they found Danner naked in her bedroom holding a pair of scissors. Sergeant Barry has been sued twice in recent years for brutality. On Wednesday, Barry pleaded not guilty to charges of second-degree murder, manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide, and was released on $100,000 bail.
