Who Was Angie Zapata, California Apologizes To The Gays, Chris Engen Denies, Phil Spector Sentenced, Al Roker, Prince Harry Takes Manhattan

The Denver News offers a portrait of Angie Zapata, the eighteen-year old Greeley, Colorado transgendered woman who was viciously killed in July of 2008, by thirty-one year old Allen Andrade, allegedly a gang member who murdered Zapata. The paper also offers an examination of seven yet to be answered questions from the trail itself.

Mark Morford, an often erratic columnist with the San Francisco Chronicle, rallies himself right, and offers an apology to the world on behalf of California’s mishandling of gay marriage, among the Golden State's other misdeeds.

The Young and the Restless actor Chris Engen is denying reports he quit the show over a gay kiss, and that he was unhappy with the direction his character had taken.

One chapter in the sad, wasted life of Phil Spector has been closed, the historically influential and talked music producer sentenced Friday in Los Angeles to nineteen years in prison for the second-degree killing of actress Lana Clarkson in 2003. Spector, who is sixty-nine years old, was convicted last month in case that took nearly six years to complete, with two trials.

Arguing that “folks need to lighten up” irrelevant public figure Al Roker showed up for jury duty Thursday in Manhattan, and promptly posted pictures of potential juries taken on an iPhone on Roker’s Twitter account.

Prince Harry, the red-headed royal rascal and sexy third in the line for the throne, has descended upon Manhattan, arriving Friday, causing and commotion quite quickly ensuing.
