Almost as soon as William M. Kunstler and Ronald L. Kuby took over the defense of Colin Ferguson, the man charged with murdering six Long Island Rail Road commuters, they got on the horn. In short order they held a news conference, appeared on talk shows and wrote an op-ed article in The Daily News, telling anyone who would listen that they would introduce a "black rage" insanity defense for their client. This month, Nassau County prosecutors, complaining that the lawyers had violated a state ethics rule, asked a judge to order both sides to stop speaking about the case to the news media. Judge Donald E. Belfi granted the request temporarily, while he considers Mr. Kunstler's challenge to it.

ITT SAYS PURCHASE OF ITALIAN HOTEL CHAIN IS IN DOUBT
Date: 22 April 1994
By Bloomberg News
Bloomberg News
The ITT Corporation said yesterday that its $535 million purchase of the Italian hotel chain, Ciga Hotels S.p.A., might collapse because increases in Ciga's stock price had made it unlikely that a group of creditor banks could fulfill their agreement to deliver 50.1 percent of Ciga's shares. As a result, Sheraton Hotels, a unit of ITT, yesterday recalled all employees who had been overseeing the transition at Ciga's 35 hotels in Europe. Sheraton has offered 740 lire, or 46 cents, a share, for the debt-laden Ciga. But the value of Ciga's stock has reached 1,300 lire in heavy trading during the last six days on speculation that Sheraton might increase its offer, a spokesman for ITT said.
