State briefs: Jan. 16
SWEETWATER - The Tennessee Highway Patrol fired a trooper Tuesday accused of taking money from a driver. Michael C. McGlothlan, 31, of Sweetwater had served as a trooper for less than a year, according to the state Department of Safety. He patrolled in Monroe County, part of the Knoxville district. McGlothlan's firing came a day after a driver claimed McGlothlan took cash from him during a traffic stop on Interstate 75 near Sweetwater, according to the Department of Safety. "An investigation determined that the complaint was factual," spokesman Mike Browning said in a press release. The agency has turned the case over to prosecutors in the 10th Judicial District, Browning said. McGlothlan won't be entitled to appeal his firing because he's served less than a year, Browning said.

Mr Anstis said maintenance of Ballarat's water system was "a program of continual improvement." .

Dermatologist's family to French: Suspect mocking your laws
The widow of slain Loop dermatologist David Cornbleet broke down in tears during an emotional meeting Monday with French officials who are holding her husband's suspected killer on an island in the French West Indies. Aileen Cornbleet's family also was told that Hans Peterson, in a statement to French authorities, said he had traveled to St. Martin to surrender because he wanted to avoid the U.S. justice system, said her son, Jon Cornbleet. "He basically is laughing at our system and their system,'' said Cornbleet, who had to walk out of the meeting at one point. "It makes me sick to my stomach.'' The French authorities are here to talk to the Chicago prosecutors and detectives who investigated Peterson, a 29-year-old man who surrendered to authorities last August in French-controlled St.
