Oklahoma lesbians denied divorce. Tulsa Beacon: “The bizarre case started when two women, reportedly ‘married' in Canada filed for divorce in Tulsa. The divorce document, which had initials instead of first names, didn't show that the two parties were both women. Cait O'Darling used the name ‘C. O'Darling' in filing for the divorce from ‘S. O'Darling,' who was later identified as Stephanie Meissen. O'Darling claims they were ‘married' in Toronto in 2003. A judge unwittingly granted the divorce, thinking it was a man and a woman. He later vacated that decision and the two women appealed.”

Prosecutors revisit charges in beating of gay men in Utah: “Salt Lake County prosecutors are taking another look at the case of two gay men who were severely beaten after one of them, David James Bell, allegedly kidnapped a neighbor's children. In August, prosecutors cited a lack of evidence and declined to file assault or burglary charges against the suspects in the attack, who are related to the children. But now, attorneys are again reviewing the beating, particularly the alleged attack on Bell's boyfriend, Dan Fair. Prosecutors are now reviewing the case ‘under different theory,' said Deputy District Attorney Alicia Cook. She said no new facts have come to light.”
