A Spotsylvania man was sentenced to 12 years for torturing his wife, Arlington Bishop Michael Burbidge urged Catholics to vote no on a Nov. 3 abortion amendment, and Fairfax officials moved to restore high school crossing guards.
According to The Free Lance-Star, Jason Louis Robbins, 42, of Spotsylvania was sentenced Friday to 62 years in prison with all but 12 years suspended after pleading guilty to child endangerment and three counts of malicious wounding. Judge Sarah Deneke called his conduct “horrendous” and said “the cruelty goes beyond anything I’ve seen in recent years.” The active term exceeded state sentencing guidelines, which capped the recommended prison time at just over seven years.
A cold front is moving through the Baltimore-Washington area this morning. Behind it, cooler and much less humid air is settling in under Canadian high pressure.
Expect mostly sunny skies today. Highs will run from the mid-70s to low 80s. Northwest winds will be breezy, with gusts of 20 to 25 mph this afternoon, and maybe near 30 mph in a few spots. Dew points will drop into the mid to upper 40s, so it will feel much less sticky than recent days.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Question 1 on the Nov. 3 ballot is officially titled a “Right to Reproductive Freedom” amendment. If approved, it would write a constitutional right to abortion into the Virginia Constitution (codifying abortion in Virginia’s constitution), while allowing the state to restrict abortion in the third trimester except when a physician judges it necessary to protect the pregnant person’s life or physical or mental health, or when the fetus is not viable. Early voting begins Friday, Sept. 18.
Early voting starts Friday. On the November ballot, Virginians will decide whether to write a right to abortion into the state constitution.
