FILE - In a Tuesday Nov. 18, 2003 file photo, convicted sniper John Allen Muhammad is escorted into the Virginia Beach Circuit Court in Virginia Beach, Va. Muhammad will die by lethal injection when he is executed next month. Virginia Department of Corrections spokesman Larry Traylor says Muhammad declined to choose between lethal injection and electrocution, so under state law the method defaults to lethal injection. Muhammad is scheduled to be executed on Nov. 10 for the October 2002 slaying of Dean Harold Meyers at a Manassas gas station during a string of shootings that left 10 people dead and three wounded in Virginia, Washington, D.C., and Maryland.

Bill seeks better autism insurance
Two D.C. Council members are planning to introduce legislation this week that would require insurance companies to improve coverage for children with autism.
Tommy Wells and Muriel Bowser plan to announce details of the legislation Monday and introduce their bill Tuesday.
If the bill passes, the District of Columbia would join a growing number of states that have passed autism insurance requirements.
Many insurers don’t cover treatment for autism. Behavior therapy for an autistic child can cost up to $50,000 a year.
