---------------------------------------------


 
The suspect in last year's Tuscon, Arizona, shooting spree is expected
to plead guilty on Tuesday. Jared Loughner is charged with the killing
of six people and wounding of several others, including former
Democratic Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. Loughner was initially declared
unfit to stand trial after undergoing psychiatric evaluation. He is
currently being treated for mental illness at a psychiatric facility in
Missouri.
