HONEYMOON KILLER WANTS SLAY CHARGES TOSSED

HAPPIER TIMES
EVERYONE remembers charming Gabe Watson. He's the Alabama bonehead who 11 days after marrying his wife Tina killed her while diving off Australia's Great Barrier Reef. Our 33-year-old hero was convicted of manslaughter Down Under and served 18 months in an Aussie jail.
Fast forward: Watson's mouthpiece is now asking an Alabama judge to dismiss U.S. murder charges because they're the result of "vindictive prosecution." Ha! Ha! Darned right. His lawyer Brett Bloomston says Bama DAs don't have any jurisdiction to pursue charges because he already went down in Oz. The thing is, cops say Alabama was where Watson conceived his twisted plot. He has pleaded not guilty to capitol murder. His trial is slated for May.

SHAUN GAYLE TO TESTIFY IN MAD MARNI'S SLAY TRIAL

EX-CHICAGO BEAR Shaun Gayle could testify today in the high-profile Marni Yang murder trial. Yang, 43, is on trial for the slaying of Gayle's pregnant gal pal Rhoni Reuter in 2007.
Opening arguments got underway Friday and Gayle is expected to take the stand today. The Prosectuion has painted a picture of Yang as a woman obsessed who would stop at nothing to win Gayle from Reuter, who was seven months pregnant with his child. Two of the bullets were aimed at the womb. But the defence insists Mad Marni is innocent and that the real killer is at large.
Last week, one of Reuters' neighbors said she heard screams and popping gunshots because a silencer was used. The defence claims Yang had a long-standing boyfriend and was not jealous of Reuter.
