GREENSBURG, Pa. (AP) — A western Pennsylvania man who lost his 21-year-old daughter in the 1988 Lockerbie bombing says the death of the only person convicted in the case "is to a degree a relief."

Glenn Johnson of Greensburg, Pa., told The Associated Press on Sunday that "it had almost reached the point where I was surprised" by the death of Abdel Baset al-Megrahi, whose release and return home in 2009 on humanitarian grounds due to prostate cancer drew condemnation from relatives of the victims.

The Libyan was jailed in 2001 for the bombing of the Pan Am flight over Scotland that killed 270 people. He insisted to the end that he had nothing to do with the bombing.

Johnson called al-Megrahi's release a "political deal" but said his anger about it has diminished.

ALTOONA, Pa. (AP) — A woman serving life in prison in the beating death of a 4-year-old west-central Pennsylvania girl a decade and a half ago is asking a judge to restore her appeal rights so she can seek a new trial.

The (Altoona) Mirror (http://bit.ly/J9gM6f ) says a hearing was held Friday in Blair County on the request by 45-year-old Rowlanda Lea Kenney. She was convicted of first-degree murder in the 1997 death of Ashley Decker, the daughter of her boyfriend, in Altoona.

Under the law, any appeal should have been filed by 2002. Kenney says she was told that the county had appointed an attorney to represent her, but he says he was never told that.

Judge Hiram Carpenter called it "a serious issue" and gave attorneys 30 days to file briefs.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — A man already charged in one western Pennsylvania shooting death has now been charged in a second slaying.

Twenty-one-year-old Julian Davis was arrested in West Mifflin on Thursday and charged with criminal homicide in the death of 22-year-old Shakkeem Harris of East Liberty, who was killed near the back entrance of a Pittsburgh park on May 13.

On Friday, while Davis was in Allegheny County Jail, police charged him with homicide and firearms counts in the April 21 shooting death of 30-year-old Ricardo Cooper. The medical examiner's office says the same gun was used to shoot both men.

Police said Davis has denied shooting Cooper. He remains in custody without bond; a listed number for him could not be found Sunday and it was unclear whether he had an attorney.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) - State prosecutors are urging a judge to sentence former state House Democratic whip Mike Veon to additional prison time for his second corruption conviction.

In a sentencing memorandum filed Friday in Dauphin County court, the attorney general's office urged the former Beaver County lawmaker be given a sentence that exceeds standard guidelines.

That could add more than six years to the six- to 14-year term he is serving for a related corruption conviction.

The 55-year-old Veon was convicted in March of misusing state funds at a nonprofit he once ran in Beaver County. He's scheduled to be sentenced Wednesday.

The prosecutors' memo says Veon has refused to accept responsibility for his actions. It describes him as remorseless and defiant.

Veon's lawyer did not immediately return a call seeking comment.

NEW CASTLE, Pa. (AP) - A 14-year-old Pennsylvania boy accused of killing his father's pregnant fiancee and her unborn child will be sent to an undisclosed juvenile facility where he could remain in state custody until his 21st birthday.
   
Jordan Brown, who was 11 at the time of the slayings, was ordered by a judge on Friday to be transferred to a treatment center. The teenager is to be evaluated every six months to determine if he should be released.
   
The judge last month found New Castle teenager delinquent - the juvenile court equivalent of a guilty verdict - in the February 2009 deaths of 26-year-old Kenzie Houk and her unborn son.
   
Houk was shot in the back of the head as she slept. The shooting occurred after the boy's father left for work.

From CBS News and Associated Press:

(AP) MOSCOW - Hollywood star Will Smith slapped a male television reporter who he said tried to kiss him on the lips as he walked down the red carpet for the Moscow premiere of "Men in Black 3."

The reporter from the Ukrainian television channel 1+1, Vitalii Sediuk, made headlines at the Venice Film Festival in September when he presented a bouquet of clearly unappreciated purple hydrangeas to Madonna and called her "my princess."

Smith was even less charmed by the reporter, who approached him on the carpet outside the movie theater on Friday night and tried to kiss him.

"C'mon man, what the hell is your problem, buddy?" Smith said as he pushed Serdiuk away and slapped him lightly across the cheek with the back of his left hand.

"He's lucky I didn't sucker punch him," Smith said to the crowd of journalists and fans. "Oh, I said that on camera! It's all good."

He said Serdiuk kissed him on the mouth, but it was not clear whether the reporter intended to do so or was aiming for his cheek as Smith swiveled to avoid him.
