Souter Still a Mystery After 14 Years
Souter Still a Mystery After 14 Years

WASHINGTON (AP) - David Souter's encounter with street thugs in Washington put him in a hospital emergency room - and newspaper headlines, which was perhaps just as unnerving for the Supreme Court's most private member.

In the 14 years since Souter arrived in the capital with his belongings in a U-Haul truck, he has shunned all perks that come with being a justice. No hobnobbing at exclusive parties, writing books or teaching in exotic locations.

He splits his time between a farm house off a dirt road in a small New Hampshire town and a tiny apartment in Washington. He drives a compact car. He eats yogurt at his desk for lunch.

In a town where nearly everyone has something to say, Souter never gives interviews and rarely is photographed.
