FILE - In this Sept. 11, 2012, file photo, Amy Bishop, accused of killing three and injuring three others in a Feb. 12, 2010 shooting at the University of Alabama in Huntsville, walks into a courtroom at the Madison County Courthouse in Huntsville, Ala. Bishop pleaded guilty to capital murder charges in an agreement that will send to her prison for the rest of her life and make her ineligible for the death penalty. A judge scheduled jury selection for Monday, Sept. 24, 2012, as a trial is still required under Alabama law because Bishop admitted to a capital charge of murder.

A Maricopa County Superior Court spokesman says 39-year-old Michael D. Turley entered the plea Thursday to falsely perpetuating a terrorism act.
Authorities allege Turley filmed his nephew as the masked 16-year-old pointed a fake grenade launcher at vehicles July 28 in northwest Phoenix.
The film was then posted on YouTube. In it, a narrator says he wanted to see how long it took authorities to respond. Police have identified the narrator as Turley.
Turley also faces counts of endangerment, misconduct involving simulated explosives and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
He doesn't have a listed phone number. Turley's next court date is set for Dec. 4.
