"A Philadelphia man will not take the stand in his retrial on murder
charges in a fire that killed his two young sons three decades ago. Fifty-six-year-old
Daniel Dougherty was sentenced to death in the 1985 deaths of 4-year-old
Daniel and 3-year-old John. He was granted a new trial after an appeals
court said his lawyer was ineffective. The Philadelphia Inquirer (

) reports that defense attorneys rested their case a consultant
testified that it was impossible to tell where or how the Oxford Circle
fire started."
