Kidera argued that the revolver fired accidentally into Strassner's abdomen when Brumfield's coat was pulled over his head as the two struggled on Weyl Street "To form a conscious objective to kill a police officer is not a line that is easily crossed." Kidera said. "For someone like Oma Brumfield to consciously decide that he was going to kill a police officer requires a step that no one could make quickly, easily and without reflection." But Assistant District Attorney Kenneth C. Hyland said physical evidence pointed strongly to Brumfield's intent. The hammer of the pistol used to shoot Strassner was found to be resting on an empty chamber in the gun's five-shot cylinder, police technicians testified. An empty chamber was to the immediate left of the chamber with the spent cartridge.

The position of the cylinder indicated that the trigger had been pulled twice first to fire the bullet that wounded Strassner, and then on an empty chamber, according to testimony by Robert B. Stanton, firearms examiner of the Monroe County Public Safety Laboratory. Question of intent at heart of matter Bv MICHAEL ZEIGLER STAKKWRITtR Jurors deliberated eight hours yesterday in the trial of Oma Brumfield before retiring for the night Brumfield is accused of shooting a police officer. A Monroe County Court jury deliberated until nearly 10 p.m. with a break for dinner until Judge John J.

Connell ordered them sequestered in a motel They'll resume their deliberations today. Based on definitions of law they asked Connell to explain twice, jurors may be wrestling with the issue of intent the key of the trial. Brumfield, 19, of 1291 North is accused of wounding Rochester police Sgt James H. Strassner Dec. 16 while Strassner was trying to stop Brumfield after a bank robbery in northeast Rochester.

In addition to charges of first-degree robbery and third-degree larceny in connection with the bank robbery, Brumfield is charged with attempted first-degree murder and aggravated assault on a police officer.

By MICHAEL ZEIGLER STAKKWRITtR The co-owner of the closed Hilton Pharmacy yesterday admitted defrauding a health insurer in a fake-prescription billing scheme that netted more than $400,000. Stuart Sonnedecker, who owned the pharmacy with Debra Loorie, said he and Loorie attempted to bail out their faltering business by electronically billing Blue Cross and Blue Shield of the Rochester Area for at least 1,000 prescriptions they didn't fill. They used the proceeds to cover normal business expenses, he said. Sonnedecker pleaded guilty to second-degree grand larceny and was promised VA to 4'2 years in prison when he's sentenced Oct. 23 by Monroe County Judge David D.

REGIONAL BRIEFING Allegany County fugitive called armed, dangerous HANDOVER State Police were searching last night for a man who allegedly fired at troopers who arrived at his Allegany County trailer home to investigate a domestic complaint. Troopers said that Charles Book- er, 48, on Tuesday fled into woods after he shot at officers who went to his house about 75 miles south of Rochester. Police thought he still might be in that wooded area 24 hours later. State Police Maj. Pedro Perez said Booker was intoxicated when police arrived at his trailer.

He threatened the officers before shooting at them, he said. Booker, who is wanted on attempted murder and other charges, also shot at three state police vehicles, troopers said. No one was in-jujed. Police said Booker, a custodian aV Alfred University, should be considered armed and dangerous. He was described as a white man about 6-foot-l, 230 pounds, with a stocky build, black hair and brown eyes.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS 2 still in critical condition following gas line blast MEDINA Two men remained ftTcritical condition last night at a Buffalo hospital after a natural gas line exploded in a Medina, Orleans County, house they were remodeling.

They were taken to Erie County Medical Center following the explosion Tuesday at 611 Genesee St A preliminary investigation has determined no faulty gas equipment The Medina Police Department said the explosion was probably caused by Reith, the property owner, or O'Neil of Buffalo.

He could have received a maximum of five to 15 years behind bars. Sonnedecker, 50, who also agreed to pay $200,000 in restitution, said he wouldn't appeal his conviction and sentence, and pledged to testify against Loorie if she goes to trial, Assistant District Attorney Charles L. Callear said. Loorie, 49, who may enter a similar plea tomorrow, slumped in a courtroom seat as Sonnedecker pleaded guilty. Loorie and Sonnedecker, both registered pharmacists, were arrested in March 1994 in what was called the largest-ever incident of prescription fraud involving a private medical insurer in New York state.

The misbillings occurred between Jan. 1, 1991 and Jan. 12, 1994, the complaint said. costs on society." The judges wrote that a failure to impose limits on jury awards would inevitably force a rise in the price of goods and services. "More serious exaggeration in unchecked jury awards can cause bankruptcies in productive enterprises, and even bankruptcies among insurers, leaving segments of society unprotected," they The problem is unusually acute in asbestos cases, where "it appears virtually certain that the resources of major defendants will eventually be completely consumed by their liabilities," the court said.

Since the many thousands of cases resulting from asbestos have only begun to reach juries "overcompensation of the early plaintiffs will leave insufficient resources for the equally deserving plaintiffs whose cases are heard later." In the Consorti case, the panel found that the lower court relied too heavily on the precedent in similar federal cases to justify the jury verdict without giving sufficient regard to state court findings. Type II diabetes What: Type II diabetes occurs gradually, usually in people over age 40. It is the most common form of diabetes, affecting about 2,000 people per 100,000, according to the American Medical Association. Why: The body produces insulin, but not enough to meet its needs especially if the person is overweight or the body does not use insulin properly. Treatment: First, diet and exercise.

If that doesn't bring down blood sugar levels to a more normal range, oral medication is usually prescribed. Danger: Can cause blindness, kidney disease, neuropathy (loss of feeling in the extremities) coronary artery disease and hypertension. The patients were diabetics who could not control their blood sugar levels with diet and exercise. DiLella, Dante On August 28, 1995.

Drmocrat nt flinmid 11MES-UN10N 3 Mil Aj.MK.IAI I PM.sS NEW YORK A federal appeals court has rejected a $12 million award in an asbestos case, saying excessive awards by juries can bankrupt productive businesses, cause job losses and "impose huge costs on society." The ruling came in the case of John Consorti, a part owner of a family insulation business who was awarded the damages after he sued an asbestos manufacturer that he suspected caused him to get cancer. He has since died.

The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday ordered a new trial on the issue of damages for pain and suffering unless Consorti's widow agrees to accept $3.5 million. "When courts fail to exercise the responsibility to curb excessive verdicts, the effects are uncertainty and an upward spiral," the appeals panel wrote. "One excessive verdict, permitted to stand, becomes precedent for another still larger one. Unbridled, spiraling, excessive judgments predictably impose huge Diabetes FROM PAGE IB study in the New England Journal found.

Those drugs are called sulfonylureas; two common ones are Micronase and Glucotrol. That study assigned 289 obese diabetics randomly into two groups: One was given metformin alone, the other a placebo. Another 632 diabetics were assigned randomly to three groups: One received metformin alone, one received glyburide a sulfonylurea drug and the third group received both metformin and glyburide. Blood sugar levels dropped the most for the group receiving the combination of drugs, said the researchers, based at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. Glyburide didn't work as well alone, and neither did metformin, the researchers said.
