Judge: 3,200-year-old mummy mask can stay in Mo.

In this April 22, 2011, photo provided by the St. Louis Art Museum, the funeral mask of Lady Ka-Nefer-Nefer is seen in an undated photograph. The 3,200-year-old Egyptian mummy's mask can stay at the museum, a federal judge has ruled, saying the U.S. government failed to prove that the relic was ever stolen after it went missing from the Egyptian Museum in Cairo about 40 years ago.
