DURHAM, N.C. - A young murderer whose brutal killing of a 90-year-old woman prompted tougher state laws on juvenile crime hanged himself in jail while awaiting trial for a second murder, authorities said Saturday.

Gregory Gibson, 20, was found hanging from a bar on a cell window at the Durham County Jail on Friday, police said. In 1992, Gibson was convicted of bludgeoning to death Mary Haddon after breaking into her house to steal her car keys.
