A look at what's happening in local news this Thursday morning:

  • Police believe they've solved the mystery of who killed Yvonne Oulton on Easter.

  • Disturbing coincidence: A 41-year-old Coral Springs woman died in what appears to be the same manner as Yvonne Oulton -- blunt trauma -- and the victim's husband has been arrested following a sloppy cover-up. [Miami Herald]
  • Margaritaville won the vote of Hollywood Commission to develop a hotel on the Johnson Street property on the beach, beating out Planet Hollywood. [WPLG-10]

  • A Palm Beach County jury ruled that Luis Castillo should get life in prison rather than the death penalty following his conviction for murder in the 2007 holdup of a convenience store near Boynton Beach. [Palm Beach Post]
  • Plantation police say they have questioned a possible suspect in the killing of a Nova Southeastern University professor. Still no indication whether that professor, Joseph Morrissey, was targeted or the victim of a random crime. [CBS4]
