Inside the Polygamist Ranch

Mothers of the children taken into Texas state custody as part of a child abuse investigation at a polygamist compound spoke out Monday night. They accused Texas authorities of forcibly separating them from their children Monday. ABC's Neil Karlinsky goes inside the 1,700-acre Yearning for Zion Ranch to investigate.

The Right to Bear Arms

Tomorrow marks the one-year anniversary of the Virginia Tech killings, which left 32 students and the 23-year-old gunman dead. One Virginia Tech organization, called Students for Concealed Carry on Campus, is part of a controversial nationwide movement to prevent such violence from ever happening again. The group supports the right of licensed handgun owners to carry concealed weapons on college campuses for self-defense. Could more guns on campus keep students safe? "Nightline" co-anchor Terry Moran reports from Blacksburg, Va.

The Pontiff

Pope Benedict XVI, arriving in the United States for a six-day pilgrimage, said today that he was "deeply ashamed" by the clergy sex abuse scandal that has hit the Catholic church here. The scandal has cost the church more than $2 billion since it erupted n 2002. Can Benedict help heal the church on his first papal visit to America? ABC's Dan Harris reports.

We hope you'll join us.
