REUTERS/Carlos Barria[/caption] This week began with the passing of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and ended with the passing of beloved author Harper Lee. In between, Apple went toe-to-toe with the feds over the iPhone of one of the San Bernardino attackers, a deadly bombing took place in Ankara, music’s biggest awards were handed out, George W. Bush returned to the campaign trail and the Pope criticized Donald Trump. Read the biggest news of the week, as it appeared in The Daily Edition. 1. Antonin Scalia, Supreme Court justice, dies at 79—CNN, Jamie Gangel, Ariane de Vogue, Evan Perez and Kevin Bohn Top line: “Appointed to the court in 1986 by President Ronald Reagan, Scalia was a conservative icon who transformed the court by instilling in it his belief that judges should follow the precise words of the Constitution and not apply a modern interpretation. He was the first justice of Italian-American heritage and passed through confirmation with a unanimous vote. Scalia changed oral arguments as he became an active participant with tough questions for advocates. He will be best known, perhaps, for his landmark decision District of Columbia v. Heller, holding that the Second Amendment protects the right to posses a firearm at home. He was a critic of Roe v. Wade and dissented in last term’s same-sex marriage cases.” Topic to follow: Antonin Scalia 2.
