James Von Brunn, Suspect in Holocaust Museum Shooting, Dies In ...
VIA: CNN.com
James von Brunn, who was accused of killing a security guard at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in June, died Wednesday morning at a hospital in North Carolina, his attorney said.
“He was just very sick,” public defender A.J. Kramer said. “It is a sad end to a very sad occurrence.”
Von Brunn, 89, a self-avowed white supremacist, was a known Holocaust denier who created an anti-Semitic Web site called “The Holy Western Empire.”
Kramer said officials from the U.S. Bureau of Prisons transferred von Brunn to an undisclosed hospital, apparently realizing his condition was worsening. Before being moved, von Brunn was undergoing mental competency tests at a prison facility in Butner, North Carolina.
The cause of death wasn’t immediately known.
A federal grand jury indicated von Brunn in July on murder charges in the death of Stephen Tyrone Johns, a six-year veteran of the museum’s security staff, the Justice Department said.
Von Brunn, of Annapolis, Maryland, faced a seven-count indictment in the June 10 attack. Four of the counts could have made him eligible for the death penalty. He also was charged with gun violations and hate crimes.
Officers at the museum returned fire and shot him, and he was hospitalized.
In July, against his will, von Brunn was ordered to undergo psychiatric testing. He ignored the advice of the judge and his defense attorney and addressed the court during a hearing to fight any delays.
“Your Constitution guarantees me a speedy and fair trial,” he said from his wheelchair to U.S. District Judge Reginald Walton.

Did you recognize the photo in this week’s Access Point ?
While an afternoon of wandering inside Target can be great fun, the image was definitely the CNN logo toward the front of CNN Center, across from Centennial Olympic Park. Good eye, KMP!
I sometimes felt like the only person who’d been to Atlanta and hadn’t been on a CNN tour. I’m a bad journalism cheerleader and an even worse arbiter of fun things to do. It’s one of our landmarks; a Russian journalist who stayed at my house for a night before heading home had two requests for her short time here: to see the Margaret Mitchell House and the CNN Tour.”Gone With the Wind” and Anderson Cooper. That’s us.
I decided to check it out this week after Mayor Kasim Reed announced Monday that $1 from each CNN tour will go toward Atlanta recreation centers — another source of fun and education for a lot of families in town.
Turner Broadcasting System spokesperson Misty Skedgell confirmed for the AJC this week that TBS would not increase the price of tour tickets, and that the company would contribute $1 for each ticket sold throughout 2010 — typically about 250,000 tickets per year.
