1994

A jury in Manassas, VA, acquitted Lorena Bobbitt by reason of temporary insanity of maliciously wounding her husband John Wayne.

 

 

She accused him of sexually assaulting her, so she destroyed his manhood! 

1999

The U.S. Coast Guard intercepted a ship headed for Houston, TX, that had over 9,500 pounds of cocaine aboard. That’s nearly five tons! 

It was one of the largest drug busts in U.S. history…about $186 million dollars worth! 

2002

In London, a 17th century book by Capt. John Smith, founder of the English settlement at Jamestown, was sold at auction for $48,800.

The Generall Historie of Virginia, New England and the Summer Isles was published in 1632.
