- Paul Simon's vehement distaste for the politics of
- apartheid just intensified. The singer who brought South African
- music Stateside with his Grammy Award-winning album Graceland
- is outraged over the fact that a white security guard who
- murdered his friend Headman Tshabalala, a popular South African
- singer, will not spend a day in jail. The harshest sentence the
- killer will receive is three years under house arrest. "I'm
- sickened. It's a terrible insult to everyone who knew Headman,"
- says Simon. "I'm speaking out in hopes that something like this
- won't happen again."
