Revealing slain victims' rap sheets draws fire (AP) Iowa State stuns No. 5 Kansas, 72-64 (AP)

In this Jan. 27, 2012 photo, members of the group 'Silence Is Violence,' an anti-crime group that includes surviving family members of murder victims, hold photos of their deceased loved ones at an event to memorialize New Orleanians who have been lost to homicide during the past year, in front of City Hall in New Orleans. Left to right are Shadiqua Fisher, whose fiance Louis Dickerson was murdered, Valerie Jeanmarie, whose son Barry Jeanmarie was murdered, and Kathryn White, mother of Louis Dickerson. A New Orleans police department policy of releasing a slaying victim's criminal record is drawing criticism from people who say it is insensitive. The families of victims say the information doesn't help anyone. “I don’t understand why they want to do it,’’ said White, whose 25-year-old son was gunned down in what she said was a case of mistaken identity. White said her son was arrested just once for a small amount of marijuana. (AP Photo/Gerald Herbert)AP - As Mike Ainsworth walked his two sons to a school bus stop, he heard a woman being carjacked scream, and ran to help. The woman was not hurt, police said, but the Good Samaritan was shot to death by a suspect who fled.
