Two Gabby Giffords updates


Giffords to attend Loughner's sentencing Thursday, source says

Former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords will attend Thursday's sentencing of the Arizona man who pleaded guilty to shooting her in the head, a source close to Giffords said.

Prosecutors have said Jared Loughner will be sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for the January 2011 shooting, which killed six people and wounded 13 others, including Giffords, at a meet-and-greet event in Tucson.

The source said Giffords' husband, retired astronaut Mark Kelly, also will attend the sentencing, and that Kelly will speak at the proceeding.
