News Wrap: Supreme Court throws out Curtis Flowers conviction, citing racial bias

In our Friday news wrap, the Supreme Court threw out the murder conviction and death sentence for a black Mississippi man, citing racial bias in jury selection. A 7-to-2 majority found Curtis Flowers was deprived of a fair trial. Also, the state of Missouri refused to renew the license of a Planned Parenthood clinic in St. Louis -- the last clinic in the state where abortions are conducted.
