Murder charges dropped against Indiana woman who ate poison while pregnant

By Susan Guyett

INDIANAPOLIS (Reuters) - Indiana prosecutors dropped murder and attempted feticide charges on Friday against an Indianapolis woman who tried to commit suicide by eating rat poison near the end of her pregnancy.

Bei Bei Shuai, 36, was charged in March 2011 with knowingly killing a viable fetus, prosecutors said.

Shuai walked out of Marion County Superior Court in Indianapolis a free woman on Friday after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor charge of criminal recklessness for the death of her daughter, Angel. She had been released from prison on bond in May 2012. Under the plea agreement, she did not have to serve more jail time.

"I have to say thank you to everyone who supported me before because without them, I'm not going to be able to continue to today," Shuai told reporters in footage posted on the Indianapolis Star website.

Shuai consumed rat poison while 33 weeks' pregnant in December 2010, prosecutors said. She was taken to a hospital where she admitted to attempting to kill herself after her boyfriend left her, according to a police statement.

Shuai's baby girl, Angel Shuai, was born alive, but died a few days after being taken off life support.

Shuai is from China and has no family members in the United States, according to her lawyer, Linda Pence.

Marion County Prosecutor Terry Curry said his office had always been willing to resolve the case for lesser charges. Earlier proposed deals had been rejected by the defense.

Curry said decisions by the trial judge about what could and could not be entered into evidence at the trial played a role in the negotiations.

Moto X finally official: Motorola X8, 4.7-inch 720p AMOLED, custom finishes, assembled in the USA from $199

Well, you've gotta hand it to Motorola -- the company has managed to build an unprecedented amount of buzz surrounding what's turned out to be a relatively mundane mainstream smartphone launch. The Moto X is likely to be a big hit, don't get us wrong, but many of the device's banner features debuted last week, with Verizon's 2013 Droid lineup. The major differentiator here is that the X is uniquely customizable, and available through multiple carriers. At the core, there's Moto's new X8 Mobile Computing System. It's not simply a custom SoC; there's a Snapdragon S4 Pro under the hood, with a 1.7GHz dual-core Krait CPU and a quad-core Adreno 320 GPU, positioned alongside two unique Motorola processors, including one to handle language interpretation (Google Now without the associated battery drain) and a contextual computing core, which manages the smartphone's sensors.

From there, we're looking at a 4.7-inch 720p (316 ppi) AMOLED panel, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of base storage (there's a 32GB option with AT&T), a 2,200mAh battery offering up to 24 hours of "mixed" usage and your standard suite of 4G radios. On the imaging front, there's a 10-megapixel Clear Pixel rear camera and a 2-megapixel front-facing camera, both of which shoot 1080p video. As for connectivity, there's Bluetooth 4.0, USB 2.0, 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, GPS and GLONASS, a standard 3.5mm headphone jack, Miracast Wireless Display, NFC and a nano-SIM. Beginning at the end of August, the 16GB model will retail for $199 with a two-year contract on AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, US Cellular and Verizon, while the 32GB flavor (an AT&T exclusive) will ship for $249. Only AT&T customers will have access to additional color options -- those on other carriers can choose from black and white.

You'll be able to pick up a standard Moto X at carrier retail and Best Buy stores, or you can configure your own at the Moto Maker site, available exclusively for AT&T customers. There you can select from multiple case and accent colors, which you can pair with a black or white faceplate. There's also an option to add custom text to the rear, such as an email address in case you lose your device, and you can pre-select a wallpaper and power-on greeting as well. Finally, several wood backings are set to be available in the future, assuming you don't mind waiting until Q4 to configure your phone. Motorola hasn't detailed global availability, but the device is expected to launch in several other countries soon, albeit without customization options and Texas assembly. Check our our Moto X preview, spec comparison, Moto Maker walkthrough and unboxing video (after the break) for more.

Is Waste Management turning into an energy services company?

David Steiner, the CEO of Waste Management, is taking the company in a more energy-intensive direction.?

Waste Management Inc. (NYSE: WM), the Houston-based waste services company, may be thinking more like an energy services company: one that's bullish on the Bakken Shale play in North Dakota.

On Thursday, Waste Management said it has acquired two energy services companies in the North Dakota area: Summit Energy Services and Liquid Logistics.

?Our plan is to collaborate with our customers to become the most capable and comprehensive oilfield services provider in the Bakken Shale,? Harry Lamberton, vice president of energy and environmental services for Waste Management, said in a statement.

The companies provide services that represent a new business area for Waste Management ? Summit Energy Services provides oil and gas construction services and Liquid Logistics sells, rents and services frac storage pools that oil and gas companies use to complete their wells. Combined, the two companies will bring 140 new employees into Waste Management.

?While we work with oil and gas customers around the country, these acquisitions give us access to an element we haven?t previously served,? Lamberton said. ?They also add expertise that we will use in the other North American regions where we provide environmental services to oil and gas customers.?

Lamberton said Waste Management plans to add other energy-intensive services, such rig maintenance and tank cleaning, drill cuttings solidification and disposal.

Waste Management did not disclose the terms of the deal. However, Waste Management said it acquired the two companies from the same private owner.

Facebook 'On This Day' Feature: Social Network Users Can Reminisce With Latest News Feed Addition

The new Facebook 'On This Day' feature lets users see what they and their friends were doing a year ago today. The News Feed addition is currently being tested on select users accounts. (Photo: Facebook)

The Facebook "On This Day" feature is popping up in select users' News Feeds. The social network is testing out the latest feature, which shows users what they and their friends were doing a year ago today.

Follow Us

"We are currently testing a feature that will show users content from their News Feed 'from a year ago today,'" a Facebook spokeswoman confirmed to ABC News.

The new Facebook feature serves as a keyhole into the past. The Verge reports that Facebook filters out the more unmemorable entries and instead displays more popular stories, determined by likes and comments.

Select users can visit facebook.com/feed/todayinhistory to see the year-old statuses, as well as other milestones and events from that month. For example, an "On This Day" snapshot reveals information such as birthdays, new jobs, graduations and relocations posted along the right hand side.

Business Insider notes that, for users that have the "On This Day" feature already, it can be accessed directly through their News Feed. In the left hand drop-down menu, Facebook users can sort their feed by "On This Day."?

Facebook is known for testing out new features on a limited population ahead of a widespread release. ?Earlier this month, the social network tested out an upgraded search engine feature, Facebook Graph Search, which launched on select users' home pages.

So far, the new Facebook feature is just in testing, but users can anticipate the new feature to roll out on their News Feed shortly. Do you have the latest Facebook "On This Day" feature? Let us know in the comment section.?
