Thursday was longtime NRA leader Wayne LaPierre's first day of retirement after 30 years leading the gun-rights group. Gun control and gun safety advocates say they're not sorry to see LaPierre go. "Wayne LaPierre's legacy is one of lies, deceit, and manipulation leading to a uniquely American epidemic of gun violence," said Kris Brown, who heads the gun group Brady. Advertisement"Just because Wayne is gone does not mean our fight for a country free from gun violence is over." The attorney general's office is expected to rest its case Monday against the NRA, LaPierre, and two other longtime executives at the gun lobby.

Read previewLongtime NRA leader Wayne LaPierre is too ill to commit to all-day testimony in his ongoing corruption trial in New York, his lawyer said in a court document made public Friday. In the new filing, his lawyer asked the trial judge for a "reasonable accommodation" allowing the nonprofit's leader flexibility in testifying. LaPierre suffers from "significant headaches and joint pain" and has a "family history of dementia," along with "overall cognitive changes and deterioration," the doctor wrote. Since early January, LaPierre "has been undergoing intensive treatment involving multiple medications," LaPierre's lawyer, Kent Correll, wrote to the trial judge in the filing, which requests a flexible testimony schedule.
