I didn't even know WB had local news. Well, they did in Philidelphia...With hindsight, we can see how these new stories play out. The VHS recording of the 2002 nightly news cut out when I ended the video. The audio was unusable for a while, and then they changed the channel (VH1).

List of News Stories (partial):

There are lawyers talking about the Andrea Yates case and what will happen.
It starts out with the guilty verdict for Andrea Yates. This is how I was able to date the recording to March 12, 2002. That's when the verdict was made. Spoilers: it was overturned and she was found to be too crazy to be responsible for what she did... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrea_Yates
Looks like she can be released, but chooses not to leave... https://people.com/crime/andrea-yates-who-drowned-kids-in-bathtub-in-2001-annually-declines-release-from-mental-hospital/
