Dallas ISD Board Renames Three Elementary Schools Named For Confederate Generals. Goodbye Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and William L. Cabell. Hello Geneva Heights, Mockingbird, and Chapel Hill.

Trial of Former Farmers Branch Cop Continues. A jury will decide whether Ken Johnson, who chased down and shot two teenagers he suspected of breaking into his car, killing one, is guilty of murder.
