DEATHNOTICES Police and emergency personnel responded to the airport about 4:34 p.m. after receiving a re- port of a plane crash. Police said the plane suddenly veered off the runway after the re- ported mechanical fail- ure, struck a dirt berm and then plunged down a 30-foot embankment, where it came to a rest. All four occupants were able to exit the plane be- fore emergency respond- ers arrived at the scene, police said. The names of the other occupants were not re- leased. An investigation into the exact cause of the crash will be at the dis- cretion of the Federal Avi- ation Administration and the National Transporta- tion Safety Board.

Institute spokeswoman Gladys Horiuchi said Friday that although the United States doesn't have spe- cific arsenic levels for wine, many other countries do. She added that California vintages have never come close to exceeding those levels. According to the lawsuit, tests by three independent laboratories found that in some cases arsenic levels were 500 percent higher than what's considered safe. Horiuchi said those comparisons were based on levels considered safe for drinking water, not wine. The lawsuit's lead attor- ney, Brian Kabateck, said the levels were originally found in tests done by the head of the Denver-based lab BeverageGrades. "He decided to test 1,306 bottles of wine represent- ing more than 75 percent of the wine consumed in the U.S." Kabateck said Fri- day. "Out of those he found 83 that had excessive arse- nic levels." The attorney added that subsequent cross-testing at two other labs confirmed the findings. Arsenic occurs naturally in the air, soil and water in small amounts, as well as in wine and other beverages. In larger amounts, it can be deadly. Kabateck said tests showed the arsenic found was "inorganic" or not nat- urally occurring. He said it might have been introduced in the vinting process. He noted nearly all of the af- fected wines sell for be- tween $5 and $10 a bottle. "Out of 1,306 tests only 83 came back," he said. "We know that the vast majority of the wine business is safe. If you're spending $20 on a bottle of wine you're not go- ing to have concerns most likely." Listofwineries: LOS ANGELES The 83 bot- tles of wine cited in a law- suit this week as having dangerously high levels of arsenic came from 28 Cal- ifornia wineries and were bottled under 31 different brand labels.

Arsenic FROM PAGE 1 By Anthony Mccartney The Associated Press LOS ANGELES Former rap music mogul Marion "Suge" Knight collapsed in a court- room Friday shortly after a judge ordered him held on $25 million bail in a mur- der case. Bailiffs cleared the court- room, paramedics arrived with a stretcher a few min- utes later and an ambu- lance was seen leaving the courthouse. Defense attorney Mat- thew Fletcher said Knight was unconscious when the lawyer left the courtroom and an update on his con- dition was not immediately available. Fletcher said his client, who is diabetic and has a blood clot, previously told him that he hadn't re- ceived any medication since Thursday. Knight hit his head on a chair when he fell after the bail hearing, Fletcher said. The 6-foot-4-inch tall Knight collapsed while dep- uties were bringing him back into the courtroom af- ter Fletcher asked a judge to order that Knight be given his medication. The attorney said Knight was being kept in solitary confinement in jail with- out proper access to med- ication. "He's being treated worse than Charles Manson," Fletcher said. The collapse marked the fourth time that Knight has been taken by ambulance from a courthouse since he was charged with killing Terry Carter, 55, in early February. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Ronald S. Coen set bail on Friday at $25 million for Knight, who is accused of running down and killing Carter with his truck. Coen made his deci- sion after Deputy District Attorney Cynthia Barnes noted that Knight was on bail in a robbery case when he struck Carter and an- other man in a parking lot in Compton. "He escalated his behav- ior and committed murder," Barnes told the judge. Fletcher argued that Knight's bail should be set at $2 million, but Coen said the higher amount was war- ranted. The attorney said before the hearing that his client likely could not post bail if it was set at $25 million. Knight, the 49-year-old co-founder of Death Row Records, has pleaded not guilty to murder, attempted murder and hit-and-run charges. Barnes filed a motion Thursday accusing Knight of being part of a scheme that has extorted more than $10 million from up-and- coming and established rappers in recent years. Fletcher countered that prosecutors should file charges involving those ex- tortion claims if they have enough evidence. Fletcher also said phone records and other evidence in the murder case would show that Knight was lured to the location where the men were hit by the truck. Knight was attacked when he arrived and hit the two men while trying to flee the scene, the lawyer said. Fletcher said Cle "Bone" Sloan acknowledged to sheriff's investigators that he attacked Knight. The attorney argued his client wasn't required to remain at the scene and endure the attack, and that Sloan should be charged. "If his name wasn't 'Suge' Knight, they wouldn't have filed this case," Fletcher said. Knight was a key player in the gangster rap scene that flourished in the 1990s, his label once list- ing Dr. Dre, Tupac Shakur and Snoop Dogg among its artists. Knight lost control of the company after it was forced into bankruptcy.

By Amy Taxin The Associated Press SANTA ANA The Califor- nia attorney general's of- fice on Friday appealed a judge's decision to pull Orange County prosecu- tors from a death pen- alty case involving a mass killer, enraging victims' relatives who pleaded for a speedy resolution to the case. Attorney General Ka- mala Harris' office also said it would investi- gate the allegations that sheriff's deputies lied or withheld information and prosecutors failed to turn over evidence about jail- house informants that prompted Superior Court Judge Thomas M. Goeth- als to yank the county district attorney's of- fice off the case of Seal Beach salon shooter Scott Dekraai. While the allegations are "very serious," state prosecutors don't feel the entire district attor- ney's office should have been removed from the case, especially because the court already im- posed sanctions limit- ing the evidence against Dekraai, deputy attorney general Theodore Cropley said during a court hear- ing in Santa Ana. The appeal could delay by a year a penalty phase to determine whether Dekraai should face a death sentence or life without parole, he said. Relatives of the eight victims killed by Dekraai in a 2011 shooting ram- page blasted the district attorney's office, public defender and legal system for the protracted delays in securing justice. "I believed in the sys- tem. I just don't anymore, because we're fighting for his rights," said Paul Wil- son, whose wife, Christy, was killed in the on- slaught. "Let's march the eight people in here and ask them about their rights." Orange County Dis- trict Attorney Tony Rack- auckas applauded the state's decision to ap- peal. He said he under- stood the frustration of victims' families and that the justice system needed to work faster. Goethals' ruling fol- lowed a yearlong court- room duel over allega- tions that authorities misused jailhouse infor- mants, hid evidence and lied on the witness stand. An extensive hearing was held after Dekraai's attorney, Scott Sanders, accused authorities of try- ing to cover up an infor- mant program that had trained jailhouse snitches to sidle up to high-profile defendants and elicit in- formation from them in violation of their consti- tutional rights. SEAL BEACH At to rn ey g ener al appeals removal of DA in murders By Kevin Mcgill The Associated Press NEW ORLEANS Million- aire Robert Durst was illegally arrested on charges that he murdered a woman in California, as well as drug and weap- ons charges filed in New Orleans, attorneys said in court papers Friday. In the papers filed at the State Criminal District Court in New Orleans, William Gibbens and Dick DeGuerin asked a magis- trate judge to schedule a preliminary hearing so that they can prove that there is no probable cause to keep Durst jailed. They say he should be released. The judge agreed to schedule that hearing dur- ing another court appear- ance by Durst on Monday in New Orleans. The attorneys also asked the judge to or- der that evidence be pre- served from the hotel where Durst was arrested.
