Brunswick , Georgia Resident Sentenced To Prison For Felony Lacey Act Violation BRUNSWICK , GA - Lewis Jackson Sr. , 58 , a resident of Brunswick , Georgia , was sentenced last week by Chief United States District Judge Lisa Godbey Wood to 6 months in prison for unlawfully acquiring loggerhead sea turtle eggs , in violation of the Lacey Act . Among other things , the Lacey Act makes it unlawful for any person to acquire , receive , and transport loggerhead sea turtle eggs , as loggerheads are endangered species under federal law . According to evidence presented during the guilty plea and sentencing hearings , in May , 2012 , Jackson took over 156 loggerhead sea turtle eggs from nests on Sapelo Island , Geogia . When seized from Jackson , the loggerhead eggs were packaged in a manner indicating they would be sold to others . Loggerhead eggs fetch as much as $ 15 per egg on the black market . United States Attorney Edward Tarver said , “ This defendant attempted to profit by unlawfully exploiting an endangered species . Loggerhead sea turtles are a national treasure that must be protected for our enjoyment and that of future generations. ” Darwin Huggins , Acting Special Agent in Charge , Southeast Region , U.S . Fish and Wildlife Service , Office of Law Enforcement , said of Jackson ’ s sentence : “ This sentence sends a loud and clear message that the commercialization of Southeast Georgia coastal natural resources will not be tolerated . We take very seriously our mission to support our state counterpart wildlife enforcement agencies and we will continue to concentrate on and aggressively pursue individuals who are involved in the illegal trade of protected species of wildlife. ” In addition to his prison sentence , Jackson was ordered to perform 156 hours of community service , an hour for each loggerhead sea turtle egg taken . Assistant United States Attorneys E. Greg Gilluly , Jr. prosecuted the case for the United States . For additional information , please contact First Assistant United States Attorney James D. Durham at ( 912 ) 201-2547 .

Thom Mrozek ( 213 ) 894-6947 Return to the 2008 Press Release Index Release No . 08-002 January 17 , 2008 HUNTINGTON PARK POLICE OFFICER AND ONE OF HIS INFORMANTS ARRESTED ON FEDERAL DRUG TRAFFICKING CHARGES A Huntington Park Police Officer , who was a member of a federal drug trafficking task force , and one of his informants were arrested this morning on federal charges that allege they conspired to “ ripoff ” cocaine and marijuana from drug dealers . Sergeant Alvaro Murillo , 44 , of West Covina , who sometimes was called El Padrino ( The Godfather ) , was arrested without incident this morning . He is expected to make his initial appearance this afternoon in United States District Court in Los Angeles . The informant , Alberto Del Real-Gallardo , 40 , of Palmdale , also known as Panzon ( Fat Man ) , was also arrested without incident . He is expected to make his first court appearance tomorrow . According to an indictment unsealed this afternoon , Murillo recruited Del Real to be an informant in 2000 , and by 2002 they were working with additional informants to identify drug dealers from whom they could steal narcotics . Once a target was identified , Murillo sometimes would check law enforcement databases to obtain information about the dealer and to make sure there were no legitimate investigations into the target . After planning the “ ripoff , ” Del Real and a second informant would trick the drug dealer into turning over narcotics or otherwise cause the drug dealer to leave without payment . Once they had secured the narcotics , Murillo and the people involved in the ripoffs allegedly made arrangements to store and then to sell the stolen drugs . The indictment details a series of ripoffs : five kilograms of cocaine in November 2002 , 250 pounds of marijuana in February 2003 , another 250 pounds of marijuana in August 2003 , 160 pounds of marijuana in early 2004 , 90 pounds of marijuana in April 2004 . The indictment also alleges that Murillo attempted to steal cocaine from an undercover DEA agent who was posing as a drug trafficker . “ Sergeant Murillo abused his position of trust to line his pockets with money earned from the sale of illicit drugs , ” said United States Attorney Thomas P. O ’ Brien . “ As a result of his long-running scheme , Murillo now finds himself on the wrong side of the law , facing a lengthy stint in federal prison. ” Murillo was suspended by the Huntington Park Police Department in September 2006 . The indictment charges Murillo and Del Real with one count of conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute cocaine and marijuana , a charge , that because of the quantities of narcotics involved , carries a statutory maximum penalty of life in federal prison . An indictment contains allegations that a defendant has committed a crime . Every defendant is presumed to be innocent until proven guilty . This case was investigated by the Drug Enforcement Administration ’ s Office of Professional Responsibility and the Huntington Park Police Department . IRS-Criminal Investigation also participated in the investigation . # # # # # Release No . 08-002 Return to the 2008 Press Release Index

Kelsey Day goes to work every day in greater Washington , D.C. , where she works for the International Baccalaureate program , an education non-profit . She interacts with fellow education professionals from Alaska to Argentina and finds the work engaging . Yet she would jump at the chance to move back to her home state of Wyoming , if she could find challenging work . “ I love Wyoming , and I would go back in a heartbeat if all of the pieces fall into place , ” she said . Day grew up in Cheyenne and attended the University of Wyoming , where she served as president of the Associated Students of UW . After graduating in 2009 , she joined Teach for America and moved to southern Texas . When that job ended , Day moved to Denver , and then to Washington , D.C . Though Day would like to move back to Wyoming , she ’ s uncertain what opportunities she — or her husband who is in medical school — could find in her home state . “ Definitely job opportunities is a big thing for both of us , ” Day said . Wyoming doesn ’ t offer many opportunities in international education , she said , but perhaps she could go back to being a teacher . “ I definitely think I could find challenging , engaging work in Wyoming through education , and I think my husband could find challenging work in medicine , but I don ’ t know that for sure. ” Day ’ s experience traces an out-of-state sojourn that many of Wyoming ’ s young adults tread . For decades , Wyoming leaders have said that youth are the state ’ s most precious resource and , unfortunately , a main export . A loss of young people saps the economy and bleeds talent . The outmigration isn ’ t as bad today as it was in the 1990s . Back then Wyoming ’ s sluggish economy spurred an exodus of young people that one reporter referred to as a “ brain drain. ” Census data from 2014 shows Wyoming ’ s population of young people age 25-34 has grown over the past decade , but mostly in the larger counties with active energy development . Even so , young people continue to leave the state in droves — among 18-year-old workers in the year 2000 , only four out of 10 were still in Wyoming a decade later , according to state data . “ Any given year , we have about 50 percent of youth leaving the state , ” Gov . Matt Mead ( R ) said at a recent press conference . “ We have great career opportunities and they are leaving the state. ” In response , Mead recently rolled out a Department of Workforce Services website called Wyoming Grown . The program touts a high quality of life in hopes of enticing Wyomingites living out of state to move back home , no matter what age . Mead said the program is aimed at recruiting workers for in-demand positions like computer programmers , doctors , welders , engineers and others . WyoFile talked to 10 Wyoming expatriates around the nation and the world to find out what they are doing , and what would convince them to move back to Wyoming . Bryan Fields - AGE : 31 - HOMETOWN : Casper - CURRENT CITY : Brooklyn , New York - CAREER/JOB : Attorney working for the federal government WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR YOU TO MOVE BACK ? The longer you spend on the East Coast the more people you meet and the deeper your connections . I met my wife from New Jersey and her family is on the East Coast and her family is out here . It is not necessarily a conflict . She would move to Wyoming if there was a great opportunity . But the more you spend out East the deeper your network is out here and the more likely you are to develop lasting connections on the East Coast . My wife has been to Wyoming several times . We would move there if there was a great opportunity , and there is really not . DO YOU WANT TO COME BACK ? I have nothing but good memories of Wyoming and I would love to go back , I dream of going back , but I feel like I am sort of trapped in a black hole on the East Coast . Once you are here and your networks are here , it becomes that much harder to go back . Every person you meet is on the East Coast and it takes a very intense effort to get back to Wyoming , and the rewards I don ’ t think are quite there . You have to take a huge financial pay cut and the job opportunities just aren ’ t as advantageous as they would be somewhere else . Nathan Biebel - AGE : 33 - HOMETOWN : Sheridan - CURRENT CITY : New Orleans , Louisiana - CAREER/JOB : PhD candidate in Philosophy , Tulane University WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR YOU TO MOVE BACK ? One thing that might bring me back is a competitive wage in a field I am interested in , but there would also need to be a cultural shift away from extreme conservatism to be more accepting of people who don ’ t hold the same points of view . It would be good if there were more airports . It is so expensive to get there even for a visit , so that ’ s a big detriment . DO YOU WANT TO COME BACK ? I don ’ t know if I would take a job teaching in Wyoming . I would take it if it were the only job offered . Given the choice between that and something else , I would choose something else . I just hate winters with a bleeding passion that burns with the fire of a thousand suns . Isaac Wallis - AGE : 36 - HOMETOWN : Recluse ( also Gillette , Elk Mountain , Laramie ) - CURRENT CITY : Fort Collins , Colorado - CAREER/JOB : Computer programmer , telecommuting with a company in California WHAT OPPORTUNITIES HAVE YOU FOUND , AND COULD YOU DO THAT IN WYOMING ? What I know how to do best is program computers for creative purposes , programs that have music , images , animated graphics , and I just didn ’ t see a lot of space for that in Wyoming . I know there are people who do program computers in Wyoming , but they are doing industrial work or doing websites . WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR YOU TO MOVE BACK ? Certain jobs would get me to come back . A job in academia would get me to come back , or if they had a really awesome job in Laramie or Cheyenne doing what I do , I would probably come back and be just as happy as I am in Fort Collins . Barring some sort of family thing , like I marry someone that wants to live in Wyoming , I can ’ t really think of much [ that would make me move back ] … . My favorite place in Wyoming is my family ranch , but I can ’ t telecommute from there . … Satellite internet isn ’ t really good enough yet . If they had a form of internet that got out to 70 miles north of Gillette and I could go be with my grandparents , I would probably do it , but they have this dish internet that is slower than dial up , and I can ’ t really make it work . Michael Cross - AGE : 33 - HOMETOWN : Casper - CURRENT CITY : Denver - CAREER/JOB : Attorney WHAT OPPORTUNITIES HAVE YOU FOUND , AND COULD YOU DO THAT IN WYOMING ? I worked at one of the largest firms in the country [ in New York ] . There were 800 to 900 lawyers , and my office had 250 . I did bankruptcy litigation for companies like General Motors and Kodak . … I got fed up with how expensive New York was , and how far I was from family , and my wife and I decided as we started to have a family to move closer to Wyoming . … I liked the idea of coming back West and having the lifestyle , however Denver still has more opportunities , especially with white-collar positions , than Wyoming cities offered . DO WYOMING ’ S POLITICS PLAY A ROLE IN DECIDING WHERE TO LIVE ? I don ’ t think that the politics [ in Wyoming ] scares me away . I am a pretty independent person but probably lean to the right in a lot of issues , so I don ’ t think that scares me away . WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR YOU TO MOVE BACK ? The big thing is overall job opportunities , not just for me but for my wife who works in finance . Places like Boulder and Denver have venture capital , and when she has to travel for work it is a lot easier to fly out of DIA and visit the groups she is invested in . In Casper or Cheyenne , you are not going to get any of that . Shawn Day - AGE : 36 - HOMETOWN : Sheridan - CURRENT CITY : North Hollywood , Los Angeles , California - CAREER/JOB : Artist/DJ/producer DO YOU WANT TO COME BACK ? I would love to be based in Wyoming . I love it here . I love the air , the sky , the stars , the summers . Love the people and the community . Love the water . Just the basic elements that are so hard to find in a city I have really grown to appreciate . WHY DID YOU LEAVE ? I decided to leave because the work dried up for me . I was playing in a rock band , Simply Jane , and we had support from Bob Dylan , and it was like “ Maybe we could make it out of Sheridan and we won ’ t have to leave. ” We ended up doing a show in Sturgis and the work dried up and I was 23 and I was like , “ I have to do something else. ” … I had my sights set on Los Angeles because there wasn ’ t much opportunity here [ in Wyoming ] . We were looking to sign a record deal and get into publishing , and all those opportunities were miles and miles away from [ Wyoming ] . WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR YOU TO MOVE BACK ? The reason I moved out there [ to L.A. ] is to succeed as an artist and [ to move back ] I would have to be in a situation where I was touring full time and working , and I secured publishing , … that would be the catalyst of “ OK , we can consider moving back to Wyoming. ” But right now it is deep in the development process of preparing the music , and touring full-time hasn ’ t come to light yet , but closer every day though . One step at a time . Levi Wells - AGE : 25 - HOMETOWN : Cody - CURRENT CITY : Denver - CAREER/JOB : Filmmaker and photographer DO YOU WANT TO COME BACK ? I ’ ll probably never live there again unless I make some bad decisions and lose all my money and have to live in my parents ’ basement . I wasn ’ t comfortable living there , and I am not big on winter… WHERE ELSE HAVE YOU LIVED ? I was in Costa Rica and I just didn ’ t want to go through another rainy season , and I decided to go back to Denver because I had lived there for a few months before . … It is booming . In the past two years this place has changed a lot in terms of architecture , art , music , and there are just a lot of opportunities for a guy like me here . WHY DID YOU LEAVE ? I was working with Patti Fiasco and Jalan Crossland . … I shot a documentary and it aired on PBS and I got stuck in this cycle of been there done that , and I just got really bored and couldn ’ t take it any more . DO WYOMING ’ S POLITICS PLAY A ROLE IN DECIDING WHERE TO LIVE ? A lot of countries aren ’ t like the United States — split up with different laws and different mindsets and you have states that are a little behind , and I feel like Wyoming is one of them in terms of laws , mentality , politics . I ’ m not going to say they are like Alabama , but if I was offered a job there , I probably wouldn ’ t go . OF THE PEOPLE YOU GREW UP WITH , WHERE ARE THEY NOW ? All my friends have moved on . … Everyone is in Montana or Colorado or New York . I think it would be lonely if I moved back . A lot of my friends are like me and want to get out . Kelsey Day - AGE : 29 - HOMETOWN : Cheyenne - CURRENT CITY : Washington , D.C. - CAREER/JOB : Associate manager for the International Baccalaureate program in North and South America DO YOU WANT TO COME BACK ? I love Wyoming , and I would go back in a heartbeat if all of the pieces fall into place . My husband [ from Colorado ] would also be interested in moving back . WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR YOU TO MOVE BACK ? I would say the two most important things are having challenging career opportunities and we would need to know there is a solid education system . Those would be my two biggest things . If I were moving to Wyoming next year , I would be doing lots and lots of research about the schools , how many advanced education programs are there , what are the graduation rates , what is the funding given to schools . WHAT OPPORTUNITIES HAVE YOU FOUND , AND COULD YOU DO THAT IN WYOMING ? I am a teacher by trade , and if I went back to teaching , there are lots of schools I could teach in . My skills would be transferrable . … And I think my husband could find challenging work in medicine , but I don ’ t know that for sure . So many people I have talked to have this awesome job in D.C. and it is so interesting and rewarding and the salary is so much better … It ’ s the same for a lot of people in D.C. no matter where they come from . To go back it might be like a demotion . A lot of times you can find something , but it depends on your profession . OF THE PEOPLE YOU GREW UP WITH , WHERE ARE THEY NOW ? From Cheyenne out of the people I grew up with and knew well , only one of them moved back . Everyone else I know is in Colorado or on the coast somewhere . Loren S. Hutchins - AGE : 33 - HOMETOWN : Sheridan - CURRENT CITY : Seoul , South Korea - CAREER/JOB : Photographer/artist assistant to Jungman Kim WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR YOU TO MOVE BACK ? I would move back if I could work traveling the world , as I do now , creating photographic and artistic images . COULD YOU DO THAT IN WYOMING ? I think it possible to do all this in Wyoming , but there doesn ’ t exist an international platform for the work to be seen from Wyoming . No major publications or galleries for the type of work I ’ m interested in exists , to my knowledge , in Wyoming . … My wife is a fashion designer/international presenter born and raised in South Africa . And she also requires opportunities in fashion that Wyoming doesn ’ t currently have . DO YOU WANT TO COME BACK ? I love Wyoming . It ’ s a place to be from . I don ’ t know about going back to Wyoming because those ( like me ) who grew up there before the Internet had an exceptionally disconnected and almost island-like youth . It lent the world to feeling like a very large place and perhaps even fueled my desire to see more . … … We did live there for two years in Sheridan ( 2008-2010 ) . It was a nice time but the economy tanked when we were trying to create an eco-friendly t-shirt design company . So we moved back to Korea to financial stability and cheap but advanced healthcare . … The state of healthcare in America in general is a big deterrent for coming back . That ’ s one factor worth mentioning . Katherine Strand - AGE : 30 - HOMETOWN : Rawlins - CURRENT CITY : Montreal , Canada - CAREER/JOB : PhD candidate in Anthropology/Environmental Studies WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR YOU TO MOVE BACK ? I ’ m living in Montreal , doing research in Swift Current , Saskatchewan , working on a PhD in Anthropology/Environmental Studies at McGill University . I left to pursue this degree and would only move back if the University of Wyoming offered me an academic job . I ’ ve been living in Canada for about 3 1/2 years and will apply for jobs in both Canada and the US . Scott Neu - AGE : 44 - HOMETOWN : Scottsbluff , Neb. , University of Wyoming graduate ‘ 98 - CURRENT CITY : Atlanta , Georgia - CAREER/JOB : Asset Manager , Goldman Sachs WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR YOU TO MOVE BACK TO WYOMING ? My answer is similar to many others , which is that you are making a trade between quality of life and compensation . I live in Atlanta . I would much rather live in Wyoming , but unless something arises that I am unaware or , the opportunities to earn the compensation I can get in Atlanta or Denver or any other city is not comparable enough [ in Wyoming ] to close the gap . It doesn ’ t mean there aren ’ t people that quit their jobs and move back to Wyoming … . I would argue that Wyoming provides an extremely high value of quality of life . But earning power in Wyoming , after cost of living adjustments , is probably going to be less than it is in big cities . You have to reconcile that . Is that loss in potential consumption over your lifetime going to be made up for in quality of life ? I think that is the general calculus that people do . … How much pay are you going to leave on the table to get that quality of life ? The other issue you ’ ve got is that most of the higher paying jobs are extractive industry related . That ’ s generally true . There are pockets of other higher paying jobs . … If you are 43-44 and you are going to move back to Casper , Wyoming , to work for Halliburton , that ’ s great until the next bust , but then what are you going to do ? Everyone has that value that they put on the quality of life , and I can assure you … the more you make in big cities , the harder it becomes to leave . — Are you a Wyoming expat ?

The arrest , posted on the NYPD Hate Crimes ' Twitter account early Wednesday , comes after the man was seen on video kicking and stomping the woman near New York City 's Times Square on Monday . In a separate statement , police identified the man as Brandon Elliot , 38 , of New York City , and said he faces charges of attempted assault as a hate crime , assault as a hate crime , assault and attempted assault . The 65-year-old woman , whose name has not been made public , was discharged from the hospital Tuesday after being treated for serious injuries , a hospital spokesperson said . Elliot was identified by residents as a local homeless man ; multiple Crimestoppers tips directed police to a hotel serving as a homeless shelter on West 40th Street . Police spent Tuesday watching the hotel and surrounding neighborhood before taking Elliot into custody . He will be arraigned later Wednesday . Elliot was previously arrested in July 2002 in the fatal stabbing of his mother when he was 19 . After serving 17 years in state prison , he was released on lifetime parole in November 2019 . Search continues in brutal NYC attack on Asian woman heading to church Police on Tuesday blanketed the midtown Manhattan neighborhood with wanted posters and offered a $ 2,500 reward for information leading to the whereabouts of the man seen on the surveillance video . At the same time , officials admonished bystanders for doing nothing to stop the man as police say he kicked the 65-year-old woman in the stomach , knocked her to the ground , stomped on her face , shouted anti-Asian slurs and told her , `` you do n't belong here . '' The attack Monday was among the latest in a national spike in anti-Asian hate crimes , and happened just weeks after a mass shooting in Atlanta that left eight people dead , six of them women of Asian descent . The surge in violence has been linked in part to misplaced blame for the coronavirus and former President Donald Trump 's use of racially charged terms like `` Chinese virus . '' New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio called Monday 's attack `` absolutely disgusting and outrageous . '' He said it was `` absolutely unacceptable '' that witnesses did not intervene . `` I do n't care who you are , I do n't care what you do , you 've got to help your fellow New Yorker , '' de Blasio said , evoking the post-9/11 mantra of `` see something , say something . '' The attack happened late Monday morning outside an apartment building two blocks from Times Square , a bustling , heavily policed section of midtown Manhattan known as the `` Crossroads of the World . '' Two workers inside the building who appeared to be security guards were seen on surveillance video witnessing the attack but failing to come to the woman 's aid . One of them was seen closing the building door as the woman was on the ground . The attacker was able to casually walk away while onlookers watched , the video showed . The building 's management company said they were suspended pending an investigation . The workers ' union said they called for help immediately . `` If you see someone being attacked , do whatever you can , '' de Blasio said . `` Make noise . Call out what 's happening . Go and try and help . Immediately call for help . Call 911 . This is something where we all have to be part of the solution . We ca n't just stand back and watch a heinous act happening . '' Mayoral candidate Andrew Yang , the son of Taiwanese immigrants , said the victim `` could easily have been my mother . '' He too criticized the bystanders , saying their inaction was `` exactly the opposite of what we need here in New York City . '' This year in New York City there have been 33 hate crimes with an Asian victim as of Sunday , police said . There were 11 such attacks by the same time last year . On Friday , in the same neighborhood as Monday 's attack , a 65-year-old Asian American woman was accosted by a man waving an unknown object and shouting anti-Asian insults . A 48-year-old man was arrested the next day and charged with menacing . He is not suspected in Monday 's attack . Police Commissioner Dermot Shea announced last week that the department would increase outreach and patrols in predominantly Asian communities , including the use of undercover officers to prevent and disrupt attacks . The neighborhood where Monday 's attack occurred , Hell 's Kitchen , is predominantly white , with an Asian population of less than 20 % , according to city demographic data . Shea called Monday 's attack `` disgusting , '' telling TV station NY1 : `` I do n't know who attacks a 65-year-old woman and leaves her on the street like that . '' According to a report from Stop AAPI Hate , more than 3,795 incidents were reported to the organization from March 19 , 2020 , to Feb. 28 . The group , which tracks incidents of discrimination , hate and xenophobia against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders in the U.S. , said that number is `` only a fraction of the number of hate incidents that actually occur . '' -- -- The Associated Press contributed to this report .

SC Public Radio News - A bill that would allow state employees to take the Juneteenth holiday or any other day instead of Confederate Memorial Day has unanimously passed the South Carolina Senate . The bill began as a proposal to add the Juneteenth celebration on June 19 as a new state holiday . But instead of adding a 14th holiday , the bill would create a floating holiday that workers could take on Confederate Memorial Day on May 10 , for Juneteenth or any other day they choose . It is unclear if state offices would remain closed on Confederate Memorial Day . The bill now heads to the South Carolina House . - South Carolina Democratic gubernatorial candidate Mia McLeod has rolled out an agenda she says she hopes will advance opportunities for the state 's Black population . This week , the state senator from Columbia released what she called her `` Advancement Agenda for Black South Carolina . '' McLeod says she hopes to further partnerships with historically Black colleges and institutions to increase access to affordable homeownership , quality healthcare and financial stability . McLeod 's plan does not otherwise spell out details on how she would propose to achieve those goals . McLeod will face other Democrats in June 's primary , including former Rep. Joe Cunningham . Republican Gov . Henry McMaster has yet to draw a primary opponent raising significant money . - A national nonprofit is giving more than $ 650,000 in grants to help five historically Black colleges and universities to help preserve their campuses . The National Trust for Historic Preservation this week announced the grants through its HBCU Cultural Heritage Stewardship Initiative . The Washington-based trust aims to help the institutions develop campus preservation plans . The grants are going to Florida A & M University in Tallahassee , Florida ; Rust College in Holly Springs , Mississippi ; Johnson C. Smith University in Charlotte , North Carolina ; Shaw University in Raleigh , North Carolina ; and Voorhees College in Denmark , South Carolina . - State health officials say drug overdose deaths in South Carolina increased by more than 50 % after the COVID-19 pandemic started .

FOLLOW ON Advertisement When in doubt , for more information , call Benedict Cumberbatch . Without directly addressing comments made last week by actor Sam Elliot , who on a podcast criticized Netflix 's `` Power of the Dog '' for its `` allusions of homosexuality , '' Cumberbatch explained in a panel this weekend that his portrayal of closeted rancher Phil Burbank has power beyond the screen . `` I think if we are to teach our sons to be feminists , if we 're to teach equality , if we 're to understand what poisons the well in men , [ and ] what creates toxic masculinity , we need to understand and look under the hood of characters like Phil Burbnk to see what their struggle is and why that 's there in the first place because otherwise it will just keep repeating itself , '' he said in a conversation with Mariayah Kaderbhai , head of programs at BAFTA . Cumberbatch 's response was to a question about why he thought the period film was an important tale to tell now and came days after Elliot , a long time staple in Western films , said in an interview on `` WTF With Marc Maron '' that the film was not a true Western . `` You want to talk about that piece of s -- - ? '' Elliott said . `` That 's what all these f -- -ing cowboys in that movie looked like . They 're all running around in chaps and no shirts , there 's all these allusions to homosexuality throughout the f -- -ing movie . '' Elliot received backlash for his comments but has not responded since the interview . CNN previously reached out to `` Power of the Dog '' director Jane Campion , Netflix and GLAAD for comment . Cumberbatch , who did not refer to Elliot by name and said he had not heard the comments for himself , called the remarks `` very odd . '' The actor seemed to take issue with the notion `` that anybody could have anything other than a heteronormative existence because of what they do for a living or where they 're born . '' `` I think the more we look under the hood of toxic masculinity and try to discover the root causes of it , the bigger the chance we have of dealing with it when it arises with our children in playgrounds at school , with their friends , in the behavioral patterns we might see in innocent play and just understand how to police that , '' he said . `` Power of the Dog '' stars Kirsten Dunst , Cumberbatch , Jesse Plemons and Kodi Smit-McPhee . It was nominated for 12 Oscars this year including best picture and best director for Campion , who Elliot also had sharp words for . `` She 's a brilliant director , I love her previous work , but what the f -- - does this woman from down there , New Zealand , know about the American West ? '' he said . `` And why the f -- - did she shoot this movie in New Zealand and call it Montana and say 'this is the way it was ? ' That rubbed me the wrong way , pal . '' Elliott made his film debut in 1967 's `` The Way West '' and went on to other Westerns such as `` Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid . '' His breakout role came in 1985 's `` Mask , '' alongside Cher . He 's starred in more than 30 films , appeared in over 40 television shows and has lent his voice to countless projects .

EDMONTON -- COVID-19 variants of concern ( VOCs ) , particularly the Delta variant , cause more severe illness than the native strain of the virus , increasing the risk hospitalization , admission to the intensive care unit ( ICU ) and death , according to a large Canadian study released Tuesday . The study found that people infected with VOCs were significantly younger and less likely to have comorbidities than those with non-VOC infections , and , even after adjusting for age , sex , comorbidities and other factors , the increased risk of adverse outcomes persisted . Using case data from Ontario , the country ’ s most populated province , the study included 212,326 cases of COVID-19 reported between Feb. 7 and Jun . 26 , 2021 . Variants of concern included those with the N501Y mutation such as Alpha , Beta and Gamma as well as Delta , which have replaced the original SARS-CoV-2 strain . Of the total cases , 22.4 per cent were non-VOC , 76.7 per cent were infections with N501Y mutations , and just 2.8 per cent were probable Delta . The study found that with Alpha , Beta and Gamma VOC infections , risks of hospitalization were 52 per cent higher than non-VOC cases , with the risk of admission to ICU 89 per cent higher and death 51 per cent higher than the original virus . But , with Delta infections , the risks jumped to 108 per cent , 235 per cent and 133 per cent higher respectively , despite the small number of infections included in the study . “ Once we adjusted for confounding factors such as age , vaccination status , comorbidity and temporal trends , elevated per-infection risk , including risk of death , remained markedly higher with VOCs , and with the Delta variant in particular , ” co-authors David Fisman and Ashley Tuite , of the University of Toronto ’ s Dalla Lana School of Public Health , wrote in the study . “ Given the relatively small number of Delta infections in our study , it is remarkable that we detected a clear and significant elevated risk of uncommon , delayed outcomes , such as death. ” The study authors note that an important limitation to the analysis is the possibility that early Delta variant infections were misclassified as non-VOC , “ owing to the absence of routine screening for characteristic Delta mutations , with likely underestimation of the prevalence of the Delta variant before May 2021. ” But the study , published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal ( CMAJ ) , echoes findings from England , Scotland and Singapore-bases studies indicating the Delta variant increases risk of emergency department visits , hospitalization and severe outcomes . CANADA IS BATTLING A ‘ DIFFERENT PANDEMIC ’ In a related editorial , Dr. Kirsten Patrick , interim editor-in-chief of the CMAJ , says it is vitally important that Canadian leaders use “ all available tools ” to stop the spread of COVID-19 as the country approaches its second pandemic winter . `` Canada is battling a different pandemic from the one it faced in early 2020 . The virus has become smarter and more dangerous , which means that we need to be smarter too , ” Patrick wrote in a media release . “ Canada 's governments can keep people safe by enacting policies that wisely combine all the measures that have been shown to be effective. ” Patrick ’ s call to action includes extending vaccine mandates and prioritizing the approval of safe vaccines for children , pointing to the study ’ s evidence that suggests vaccinations blunt the severity of variant infections , reducing the risk of severe disease and death in both partially and fully vaccinated people . `` The effects reported here represent a substantial degree of protection against death conferred by vaccines ( about 80–90 per cent ) , even when they fail to prevent infection , ” reads the study . “ Such direct protective effects may help reduce the health impacts of ongoing SARS-CoV-2 transmission in Ontario , even if herd immunity proves elusive , given the high reproduction numbers of VOCs. ” Fisman , coauthor of the peer-reviewed study , has served on advisory boards related to influenza and SARS-CoV-2 vaccines for Seqirus , Pfizer , AstraZeneca and Sanofi-Pasteur .
