Justin Timberlake kicked off a party Friday night with some appropriate words. "We're stoked to be here tonight," he said. "Greatest owner in the history of sports being honored tonight." Jerry Buss? Walter O'Malley? Art Rooney? Try Jerry Jones. The first three on the above list are currently deceased, which is the state football fans have often wished Jones were in. But it's time to give the devil his due. Jones truly is the greatest owner ever, and Friday night showed why. It's Hall of Fame Weekend in Canton, Ohio. Inductees usually go to dinner at the nearest Bob Evans the night before the big event. Jones threw a bash for 1,500 people and hired Timberlake as emcee. It was typical JJ, who has been more entertaining than the other 31 NFL owners combined since he bought the Cowboys in 1989. Jones never met a microphone he didn't love or a criminal he didn't think he could rehabilitate. That provided about 3.4 billion hours of material for media and fans. He also turned his initial $140 million investment into the most valuable team on earth. The Cowboys are worth $4.2 billion, and Jones' business savvy revolutionized the NFL. As shrewd and entertaining as Jones has been, what truly set him apart was his ego. JJ believed he was as good a coach and talent evaluator as he was a businessman. That led him to derail the budding dynasty built by Jimmy Johnson and cast Dallas into the playoff wilderness. Ezekiel Elliott was six months old the last time the Cowboys won a Super Bowl. So congrats to JJ on being the rare owner who appeals to everybody. If you love the NFL, he has been great. If you hate the Cowboys, he's been even better. Stud of the week • Steph Curry, who shot two 74s in this week's tournament on the Web.com Tour. That was better than any round Tiger Woods has shot since 2013. Dud of the week • FSU receiver Da'Vante Phillips, for being charged with five felonies in a check-cashing scheme. When informed of the arrest, the Cowboys moved Phillips to the top of their draft board. Dud of the century • Pete Rose. As part of a defamation lawsuit, Rose was forced to admit last week that when he was 34 and married he had an affair with a 16-year-old girl. When your defense is, "Hey, 16 made her legal in Ohio," you truly are worthy of the Slimeball Hall of Fame. Rose disputed the woman's claim that she was actually 15 and other allegations he carried on with girls as young as 12. Given Rose's track record with the truth, I'd say any girl under 10 should be banned from his next autograph show. Money madness The futbol world was rocked last week when Paris Saint-Germain paid a $263 million transfer fee to snatch Neymar from Barcelona. Not only can he now afford to buy a last name, the move officially made Neymar more valuable than all but two MLS teams, according the 2016 Forbes franchise-value list. For that amount of money, Paris Saint-Germain also could have bought two F-35 jet fighters, 65.9 million Big Macs or seven Ole Miss recruits. Greatest NFL chugger As if Tom Brady doesn't have enough to gloat about, in a story celebrating Brady's 40th birthday last week, ESPN reported the Patriots QB is also the fastest beer chugger on the team. No wonder he's not even thinking about retirement. In related news, Prince Philip retired last week at age 96. The Queen's husband said that after 22,219 public engagements since 1952, he knew it was time to retire when Prince Charles finally beat him in a beer-chugging contest last month. Smell test A 13-year-old Connecticut boy awoke to find a skunk in his bed last week. The varmint stunk up the place but was eventually shooed out of the house. Political Pulse There's a Pete Rose joke in there somewhere, but I'm afraid he'll sue me for defamation of whatever character he has left. Parting shots • ESPN reported that Michael Vick played his record-breaking 2002-03 season in Air Jordan basketball shoes. In related news, the Magic said they played last season in football cleats. • According to Forbes estimates, Pete Rose's word is now valued at minus-2 cents. • The New York Knicks reportedly are trying to trade Carmelo Anthony to the Patriots for a glass Tom Brady chugged beer out of. • In an attempt to quell worries he'd be a distraction, Colin Kaepernick has assured the Miami Dolphins that if they sign him he will stand for the Cuban national anthem. • Correction: Ex-coach Hugh Freeze says Ole Miss could have bought more than seven recruits with $263 million.

Justina Pelletier Closer to Her Family After a Year in Psych Hospital Parents continue to wage angry battle to regain custody. May 5, 2014 -- Justina Pelletier, the sick teen who for the past year has been in state custody under psychiatric care at Boston Children's Hospital, will be moved to a therapeutic facility in Connecticut under a plan to reunite her with her family, according to the Massachusetts Department of Health and Human Services. Her parents, Lou and Linda Pelletier of West Hartford, Conn., have waged an angry and highly publicized custody battle for their 15-year-old and continue to fight the state. Only allowed weekly supervised visits, they say their daughter was diagnosed with mitochondrial disease by a top doctor at Tufts Medical Center and her condition has deteriorated for lack of proper medical treatment. They also allege Justina has been “abused and sexually harassed” at the DCF facility where she is being treated. Parents of Justina Pelletier accused of verbally abusing hospital staff. Mom of Sick Connecticut Teen 'Collapses' in Court After Judge Sends Kid to Foster Care “We are very disappointed,” Lou Pelletier told ABCNews.com. “There is no end game here and this could drag on with the Massachusetts DCF for months. They are still in charge and controlling this. This is unacceptable.” “She is our daughter – this is enough,” he said. “Stop the torture and inhumane treatment of her – and never mind what this has done to our family.” Pelletier has also pledged to continue a civil rights lawsuit and an emergency appeal in the juvenile appellate court, both underway. For more than a year, a Boston judge sided with Boston Children's, which was treating the teen for somataform disorder, a psychiatric condition that causes a person to experience physical pain for which no known medical explanation can be found. But in March, the court ordered a new treatment plan that includes Justina's former doctor, Mark Korson of Tufts Medical Center, to create a new treatment plan for "persistent and severe somatic symptom disorder," a condition that acknowledges physical as well as psychiatric illness. Starting next week, the teen will be moved to the JRI Susan Wayne Center for Excellence, a therapeutic education provider in Thompson, Conn., HHS secretary John Polanowicz wrote in a May 5 letter to the Massachusetts House of Representatives obtained by ABCNews.com. "We are confident that we have found the right pathway for Justina to return home as soon as possible so she can continue her strong recovery in Connecticut," Polanowicz wrote. "This is an important step forward in an extremely complex situation. We all want Justina to return soon, and this plan provides a road map to make this happen." Pelletier may return home once her family meets these conditions: They must attend weekly visits at the Susan Wayne Center, follow the treatment plan outlined by Tufts Medical Center, participate in family therapy and continue to review her progress with DCF. For the last several months, Justina has been living at Wayside Youth and Family Support Network, a DCF-run residential program in Framingham, Mass. In March, a juvenile court judge gave the state of Massachusetts permanent custody of Justina Pelletier until the age of 18 -- issuing a ruling that chastised her parents and accused them of mismanaging the treatment of their sick 15-year-old. Suffolk County Court Judge Joseph Johnston ruled that the girl would remain in state custody until the age of 18 unless her parents could prove they were capable of taking care of their daughter. The four-page ruling slammed the family for verbally abusing hospital caregivers by calling them "Nazis" and accusing them of "kidnapping" and "killing" their daughter, according to a copy obtained by ABCNews.com. The judge also alleged that the social worker assigned to Justina's case had to be reassigned because Lou Pelletier threatened her. He said the family has stood in the way of every attempt to get Justina treatment. Lou Pelletier, who filed an appeal in the custody case last December, had threatened federal lawsuits for "wrongful imprisonment" of his daughter. At the time, the judge ruled that the Pelletiers had stood in the way of Connecticut child protective services placing Justina close to home because they "threatened to sue." Other suitable programs denied placement because of "concerns of litigation," according to the ruling. According to the family, Justina was taken to Boston Children's Hospital's emergency room in February 2013. At the time she was being treated by Korson at Tufts for mitochondrial disease, a rare genetic disorder with physical symptoms that can affect every part of the body. Since then, Justina has been confined to a wheelchair, and Pelletier has alleged her medical symptoms are not being treated and her condition has deteriorated. Justina's older sister, Jennifer Pelletier, 22, told ABCNews.com in March that she was concerned about swelling in Justina's legs, which "could be a heart or kidney condition." "Every time I see her she is worse," Jennifer Pelletier said. Boston Children's Hospital has argued that Justina's symptoms are psychosomatic and laid out a treatment plan that the parents rejected. The hospital then filed a complaint with the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families, as required by law, because it suspected the parents of child abuse for subjecting their daughter to invasive medical treatments and denying her mental health therapy, according to numerous reports in the Boston Globe. Boston Children's Hospital released this statement following the March court ruling: "We understand that the nature of this case has prompted questions and sparked strong reactions. But our clinical team has always acted in the best interest of the patient's health and well-being, according to the high standards we follow for every patient placed in our care. "This case was a complex matter, presenting an array of challenges and obstacles that we cannot discuss out of respect for our patient's privacy and legal confidentiality requirements. We have been unable to provide a full and accurate picture of the case. But we are confident the treatment plan developed for our patient was the best course given the issues surrounding her medical history, the evaluations and observations of her care teams prior to arriving at Boston Children's and after she was admitted here."

Just minutes after former FBI Director James Comey said on Good Morning America that he believes it is truly “possible” that the notorious pee tape involving President Trump and Russian prostitutes actually exists, the president sent out a series of tweets responding to the segment. “James Comey is a proven LEAKER & LIAR,” Trump wrote. “Virtually everyone in Washington thought he should be fired for the terrible job he did-until he was, in fact, fired. He leaked CLASSIFIED information, for which he should be prosecuted. He lied to Congress under OATH.” He added, “He is a weak and untruthful slime ball who was, as time has proven, a terrible Director of the FBI. His handling of the Crooked Hillary Clinton case, and the events surrounding it, will go down as one of the worst ‘botch jobs’ of history. It was my great honor to fire James Comey!”

KANSAS CITY, Mo. >> The family of a Black man who was shot and killed by a white Kansas City police officer in 2020 is suing the officer and the Board of Police Commissioners for at least $10 million. The federal lawsuit filed Thursday by Donnie Sanders’ family accuses the officer, Blayne Newton, of using excessive force when he shot Sanders on March 12, 2020. It also accuses the board, which oversees the Kansas City Police Department, of not properly training or disciplining officers in the use of deadly force, The Kansas City Star reported. Leslie Foreman, a spokeswoman for the police, said the department does not comment on pending litigation. Sanders’ death is one of the prominent cases in Kansas City involving Black people cited by civil rights activists when pushing for changes to the Police Department. Newton shot Sanders, 47, three times after he followed Sanders’ vehicle into an alley. Sanders parked the vehicle and ran, with Newton chasing him, police have said. Police dashcam video records Newton yelling commands at Sanders to stop and show his hands but the video does not capture the shooting. Kansas City police were not wearing body cameras at the time but have since begun doing so. Newton told investigators he believed he saw a gun in Sanders’ hand. No weapon was found; investigators said Sanders had only a cellphone in his jacket pocket. Two witnesses reported they saw Newton walking backward while yelling commands as Sanders approached with his arm extended. Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker, citing an investigation by Kansas City police and the Missouri State Highway Patrol, determined last year that the witnesses’ statements collaborated Newton’s account that he shot Sanders because he was afraid for his life. Newton was not charged and returned to work as a patrol officer. He underwent another review after witnesses said he put his knee on the back of a Black woman who was on the ground during an arrest — another case that sparked protests.

KEARNEY — A 70-year-old man died Friday night in a fire at an apartment in Gibbon. Bradley L. Osborne was found dead inside the apartment he occupied on the east side of Colony Acres, according to a Buffalo County Sheriff’s Office news release. Members of the Gibbon Volunteer Fire Department and Buffalo Sheriff’s Department were dispatched to the fire at about 11:50 p.m. Friday. When they arrived they encountered an active fire and heavy smoke in Osborne’s unit. According to the news release, foul play is not suspected. An autopsy was ordered and an investigation into the cause of the fire is under way by the State Fire Marshal. All building residents had evacuated before crews arrived, Capt. Nancy Crist said. Nearby apartment units were spared from the worst of the fire, though water and smoke damage affected multiple dwellings, Crist said.

Kansas Woman Indicted for Smuggling Heroin into Correctional Center KANSAS CITY, Mo. – A Shawnee, Kansas, woman has been indicted by a federal grand jury for smuggling heroin to an inmate at the Western Missouri Correctional Center in Cameron, Missouri. Juliane L. Colby, 43, was charged in a four-count indictment returned under seal by a federal grand jury in Kansas City, Mo., on March 16, 2021. That indictment was unsealed and made public at Colby’s initial court appearance today. The federal indictment alleges that Colby participated in a conspiracy from Aug. 1 to Aug. 10, 2019, to distribute heroin. Colby allegedly conspired with others to smuggle heroin and other contraband into the Western Missouri Correctional Center. According to the indictment, Colby hid heroin in an envelope marked as “Legal Mail” that also contained numerous pleadings and documents from a criminal court case along with other contraband. The envelope was labelled with a return address for a law firm purportedly located in Harrisonville, Mo., the indictment says, although Colby mailed it from a post office in Shawnee. Colby and a conspirator at the correctional center allegedly had a series of phone conversations during which they used a variety of code words to discuss the plan to mail heroin and contraband into the center. In addition to the drug-trafficking conspiracy, the indictment charges Colby with one count of attempting to distribute heroin and two counts of using a communication facility (a cell phone and the U.S. Postal Service) to commit the drug-trafficking offenses. The charges contained in this indictment are simply accusations, and not evidence of guilt. Evidence supporting the charges must be presented to a federal trial jury, whose duty is to determine guilt or innocence. This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Brent Venneman. It was investigated by the FBI, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, the Cameron, Mo., Police Department, and the Missouri Department of Corrections.

Keep reading Credit card scams can affect anyone, and they’re lurking everywhere from hotel rooms to blockchain sites. Here are some credit card scams that’ll make you think twice about giving out your numbers. Beware any instructions that follow your computer's blue "screen of death." One woman in Marin County, California, reports that she was scammed by a fraudster who pretended they could fix her computer, according to ABC 7 News. She also alleges that even though she flagged the fraudulent charges, her bank failed to stop the transaction. While she was online shopping, the shopper says, her computer's screen went blue and a message appeared saying there was a virus. The message on the screen advised her to call Microsoft, so she did. She claims the man on the other end of the phone told her to scan a $500 check, which she did, according to ABC 7 News. She soon realized her mistake and called her bank. But the money still came out of her account, she says, and it took an intervention from ABC 7 News' 7 On Your Side to get the money back. Some scammers impersonate hotel desk workers to nab your credit card info. While you're staying in a hotel room and receive a call from the front desk, never give your credit card information over the phone. The caller might not be a hotel employee at all. This is a popular scam, according to Vermont's Bennington Banner. The culprit will claim there's a problem with your credit card in order to extract your information. Tell them you'll resolve the issue at the front desk in the morning. Apartment fraud can affect up to 6.4% of all renters. Apartment fraud can take many forms, whether it's through falsifying apartment listings or insisting that renters pay an application fee online before even seeing a property, CityLab reports. 6.4% of apartment renters are affected by scams, according to Forbes. Some fraudulent Bitcoin investments will ask for credit card details. If you come across an incredible deal for investing in blockchain and they ask for your credit card details, avoid, avoid, avoid. That's a red flag that you're dealing with fraudsters, according to Forbes. No real investment is done via credit card. Scammers might send you a text message, pretending to be your bank. There was recently a wave of scams in Louisiana that involved fake bank texts. Fraudsters were texting people and telling them to call a certain phone number to "reactivate their credit card," according to KATC. If this ever happens, it's better to call the bank number you have on file instead of the phone number you receive via text message. Beware of the gift card "prize." It can be momentarily exciting to receive an email that you've won a high-dollar gift card from your favorite retailer. But, before you begin your shopping spree, know that it's most likely a scam. Jason Schall, an attorney with the Federal Trade Commission, told Creditcards.com that in one instance, consumers were told they couldn't receive their "prize" until they purchased at least 13 items and referred three other people who would do the same. When you receive an email offering any sort of free prize, Schall said to be alert to any demand for personal information. Fake utility workers call and threaten to turn people's electricity off unless they pay. Some scammers will call a household and say there's a delinquent utility bill, according to WHEC News 10. They'll claim that with a credit card number or gift cards, they can pay the bill and the lights will stay on. Instead of releasing your credit card info over the phone, it's a better idea to hang up and call your utility company. Chances are, this was just a scam.

Kodiak Man Arraigned on Drug Trafficking Charge Denies Knowledge of Checked Luggage Containing Meth and Heroin Lodged in Spoiled Goat Intestines Anchorage, Alaska – U.S. Attorney Bryan Schroder announced that Cenen Placencia, 71, of Kodiak, was arraigned today on a complaint charging him with possession with intent to distribute controlled substances. On Nov. 20, 2019, Placencia was ticketed to depart from Anchorage International Airport, destined for Kodiak, Alaska. Investigators from the Alaska State Troopers (AST) Anchorage Airport Interdiction Team (AAIT) requested Placencia’s consent to search his checked luggage, which consisted of a 47-pound fish box that was duct taped shut with a rope tied around the box. After obtaining Placencia’s consent, the box was opened and investigators observed loosely wrapped meat pieces frozen together in a single large mass. The meat did not appear to be for human consumption, and packaging and shipping was inconsistent with the standard methods of meat processing. Investigators obtained Placencia’s consent to fully thaw and search the meat while he waited for the next Kodiak flight. As the meat was thawing, investigators detected an odor consistent with spoiled meat, no longer safe for consumption. 10 duct tape wrapped balls, each slightly larger than a golf ball, were found lodged inside the intestines of what investigators believed to be a goat and contained, in total, six packages of approximately 389 grams of meth and six packages of approximately 740.5 grams of heroin. Placencia stated he purchased the goat for $140 from a rancher in California, packed the box himself, and intended to eat the goat intestines. Further, he denied having any knowledge of the meth and heroin found inside the goat. If convicted, Placencia faces a statutory maximum of 40 years in prison, a $5,000,000 fine, and a minimum of 4 years of supervised release. Under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, the actual sentence imposed will be based upon the seriousness of the offense and the prior criminal history, if any, of the defendant. The Alaska State Troopers (AST) Anchorage Airport Interdiction Team (AAIT) and Coast Guard Investigative Services (CGIS) conducted the investigation leading to the charge in this case. This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Christina Sherman. A complaint is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt. A defendant is presumed innocent and is entitled to a fair trial at which the government must prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

LAS VEGAS — Five artificial turf fields are on tap to be replaced in the Clark County School District in Nevada in the wake of an investigation that exposed dangerous conditions, lack of safety testing and lack of maintenance at high school football fields across Las Vegas. Now, a potential health risk with how artificial fields are made is taking center field. "As a keeper or a goalie, he's constantly in it," said Channel Beller, whose son Jay practically grew up on a soccer field. "As a goalie, he was on the turf all the time," Beller said. "Especially during practice, it's dive, dive, dive, dive, dive, dive for hours, right?" Jay is being exposed to something he can't help breathing in and swallowing. "It's everywhere. It's all over me," Jay said. "After every game and every practice, I'd have to wash off all of it out of my scabs and stuff. It would burn pretty bad." After one game, they learned just how invasive the stuff could be. "I dove for a ball and got a lot of the black stuff in my eyes, and the next couple days, I had like this blurry vision in one of my eyes," Jay said. "Two days later, we pull it out. So now knowing what I know," Jay's mom says, "that sat in a mucous membrane for two days!" Little black rubber pellets are the infill that helps create a cushion in artificial turf. It's called crumb rubber, and it's made from recycled tires chopped up into tiny bits. "Disgusting," Beller said. And disturbing, says former U.S. Women's National Team goalie Amy Griffin, who is now the head coach at the University of Washington. "I don't think they are testing it in a way — how we live in it," Griffin said. She stumbled upon a troubling pattern during a hospital visit with a cancer patient who was also a goalie. "The nurse walked by. She just overheard our conversations about being a crazy goalkeeper," Griffin explained. "(The nurse) said, 'Wait a second! Are you a goalkeeper too? You're like the fifth goalkeeper I've hooked up to chemo this week.' " That was in 2009. Griffin soon learned about more athletes who played on artificial turf fields and had been diagnosed with cancer. Oddly, a lot of them were goalkeepers. So she started a list. "That list was at 15; then it went pretty quickly to 35," Griffin said. Her list became the focus of an ESPN investigation in 2014. "We, for the most part, operate on the principle that a chemical is innocent until proven guilty," Jeff Ruch, an attorney with Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility, said in the ESPN story. "And only if it produces a body count is there then any sort of regulatory response." That initiated a federal, multi-agency research effort in 2016, which is still ongoing today. Led by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, they're looking at possible risks associated with turf fields and rubberized playground surfaces. The first concern is easy to see — gasoline and oil, antifreeze, brake fluid and who knows what else. You'd never let your kids play in a puddle of this toxic soup. But some of those chemicals could essentially roll from the roadways and parking lots onto athletic fields and playgrounds as it takes thousands of used tires to infill a field. But the industry says what's on the tires is not a problem. "Before they go into fields, they're broken up and they're cleaned," said Dan Bond with the Synthetic Turf Council. According to analysis from the Yale School of Public Health, the very components of tires could be a health risk. Studies reveal there are more than 300 chemicals in crumb rubber — and 52 are classified as carcinogens. "This was a startling revelation," Beller said. "We wouldn't allow our children to go play on a pile of tires, so why would we allow them to play on a field of chopped up tires?" The Synthetic Turf Council says carcinogens are everywhere. "In the iPhone or cellphone you use," Bond said. "Or if you play on a natural grass field, there's arsenic and lead and other carcinogens that have been identified." The feds just released more than 800 pages of material. While they still can't say if there's a link between crumb rubber and cancer (see the EPA's statement below), Griffin's list keeps getting longer. "Now the list is at 264," Griffin said. "In that list, the thing that's most concerning to me is, 205 of those are soccer players and 121 of those are goalkeepers. So that's 59% of people on my list." The field of research is divided. "I'm a parent of two little beautiful children that I have absolutely no problem playing on synthetic turf," Bond said. The turf industry maintains crumb rubber is safe. According to the Synthetic Turf Council, recycled tires are washed and the dangerous chemicals are encased in the rubber. They cite several studies that conclude that recycled rubber infill poses a negligible risk. One in particular? A Washington State Department of Health report responding directly to Griffin's list. It concludes there are fewer cases of cancer among soccer players than expected, and it encourages kids to keep on kicking. Another study concludes scientific evidence "does not support the hypothesis" of a cancer risk. On the flip side, a 2017 study by Dutch scientists tested how water leached through crumb rubber would impact the behavior of zebrafish. Apparently, the water was so toxic, all the fish embryos died within five days. And in May of this year, a South Korean study claims, "Cancer risk is approximately ten times higher in poured rubber playgrounds than in uncovered soil playgrounds." "We should have safe places for our children to play," Beller said. "We shouldn't have to make that choice." CCSD provided the following statement when KTNV asked if the district was considering alternatives to crumb rubber on the new football fields: The Clark County School District is using the field at Boulder City High School as the basis of design on upcoming bids for artificial turf projects. That design utilizes an organic infill consisting of a mixture of cork and sand. Any materials submitted as part of bids will be reviewed by the appropriate design professional retained by CCSD for the project. Additionally, CCSD’s decision to move away from crumb rubber infill was solely a response to the heat generated by this type of infill. Organic infills have proven to create a much cooler playing surface. KTNV reached out to the EPA for a statement, with the following questions, regarding progress with the multi-agency federal research effort into risk associated with crumb rubber infill. The following was provided by an EPA spokesperson: The Synthetic Turf Field Recycled Tire Crumb Rubber Research Under the Federal Research Action Plan (FRAP) Final Report: Part 1 - Tire Crumb Characterization has been released. It summarizes the first part of the research study that was conducted under the FRAP. The second part, Exposure Characterization, which will include information from a biomonitoring study that CDC/ATSDR is conducting, will be released later. For more information about the study and timeline, see our website on the Federal Research on Recycled Tire Crumb Used on Playing Fields at epa.gov. KTNV: When will Part 2 be available? What will Part 2 cover? Part 2, to be released at a later date, will attempt to characterize potential human exposures to the chemicals found in the crumb rubber material during use on synthetic turf fields. The Part 2 exposure characterization will include results (not currently available) from a biomonitoring study being conducted by CDC/ATSDR. The anticipated release date for Part 2 is not known at this time. KTNV: Why are these reports not including a risk assessment? In 2016, the EPA recognized that without exposure there is no risk and, in an attempt to develop a timely response to ongoing concerns identified gaps in its knowledge about the potential exposures to the chemicals contained in tire crumb rubber. Following this, EPA, ATSDR, and CPSC launched a coordinated federal effort to fill important data gaps particularly with respect to understanding potential exposures to chemicals in tire crumb rubber. This research will inform future risks assessments. KTNV: When will a risk assessment be available? Neither Part 1 nor Part 2 of the synthetic turf field study, separately or combined, will constitute an assessment of the risks associated with playing on synthetic turf fields with recycled tire crumb rubber infill. CPSC will continue its work on playgrounds by conducting a risk assessment of children's exposure to playground surfaces made of tire rubber. This work will use the CPSC survey as well as data from EPA's FRAP Part 1 (characterization of the chemicals and materials in tire rubber crumb), released July 25, and CDC's (ATSDR) FRAP Part 2 (characterization of potential exposures for those who use turf fields containing tire crumb) after it is released.

LEONARDTOWN, Md. — A Maryland State Police trooper responding to a pair of 911 calls shot and killed a teenager who was pointing what investigators determined was an airsoft gun at him, authorities said Tuesday. The shooting occurred after state police received two 911 calls about someone acting suspicious, Superintendent Woodrow Jones II told a news conference. The first caller said he thought the person had a gun, left a telephone number but didn't give an address before hanging up, Jones said. A second caller gave a street address for the suspicious person that was a short distance from the Leonardtown barracks, but the caller hung up before identifying themselves, Jones said. Jones said the trooper, who responded alone, encountered Peyton Ham, 16, who he said had a gun and a knife. According to the superintendent, a witness said they saw Ham in the driveway of the home “in a shooting stance" and pointing a weapon at the trooper. “The trooper fired at the male, wounding him,” Jones said. According to another witness, Ham then pulled out a knife and tried to get up. “The trooper ordered him to drop the knife before he fired again,” Jones said, adding that the trooper reported the shooting and called for emergency personnel while other troopers gave first aid. Ham was taken to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead, Jones said. An investigation revealed that the weapon Ham wielded was an airsoft gun, which is commonly used to shoot BBs and which Jones called “a close representation of an actual handgun.” Joseph Azzari is the trooper who shot Ham. Azzari is assigned to the Leonardtown Barrack as a road patrol trooper. He has been a Maryland state trooper for two years and seven months, according to Maryland State Police. The teenager was white, as is the trooper who shot him, according to Maryland State Police spokesman Greg Shipley. Azzari has been placed on administrative leave pending the investigation, Jones said. The trooper was not hurt, he added. Maryland State Police troopers don't wear body cameras, and Jones said investigators will look for video from the surrounding area. He said dashcam video didn't capture the incident. Leonardtown is about 60 miles (95 kilometers) southeast of Washington, D.C.

LINCOLN — A near head-on collision with a drunk driver five years ago changed Ernie Newquist’s life forever. It left the Lincoln man in constant pain and required surgeries on his left shoulder, knees and lower back. It also cost him his marriage of 29 years. While his wife survived the wreck without physical injury, he said, the trauma she endured and the depression that came with his injuries were too much for the couple. On Friday, Newquist spoke for a legislative proposal aimed at making it easier for victims and families to win judgments against drunk drivers. “This individual has impacted my family forever,” he told members of the Judiciary Committee. Newquist was joined in support of Legislative Bill 84 by Michelle Root, the mother of Sarah Root, a young woman killed in a car crash one year ago. The man who authorities say was responsible, who was in the United States illegally, was intoxicated and street racing at the time of the crash, prosecutors say. He remains at large after disappearing while on bail. People are also reading… Michelle Root said the proposal is needed for the time when that driver is brought to justice. LB 84, introduced by State Sen. Carol Blood of Bellevue, would allow juries in civil lawsuits to hear evidence that a defendant had been driving drunk at the time of a crash leading to injury or death. Blood said it is critical for juries to understand the cause of a wreck because that information could affect the determination of damages. Currently, judges can bar evidence of drunken driving from being presented in a civil case if the defendant has admitted that his or her negligence caused a crash. The prohibition is based on a Nebraska Supreme Court ruling that said such information can unfairly prejudice a jury against a defendant, when the defendant already has accepted liability for the crash. Jim Harris, an Omaha attorney who has represented plaintiffs in such lawsuits, said he disagreed with the ruling because it prevents juries from being able to determine damages properly. “It’s blatantly unfair to the victims of this and it gives drunk drivers a free pass,” he said. But several committee members questioned whether the bill would open the door for juries to award damages based on their feelings about drunken driving. “I think that what we’re doing is creating de facto punitive damages,” said Sen. Adam Morfeld of Lincoln, adding that Nebraska bans punitive damages. Sen. Ernie Chambers of Omaha questioned whether evidence that a driver was drunk would inform or inflame the jury. Currently, judges can bar evidence of drunken driving from being presented in a civil case if the defendant has admitted that his or her negligence caused a crash. Omaha attorney Matt Lathrop said his experience is that if evidence of drunken driving is not allowed, juries are more sympathetic to the defendant. They also may not understand the psychological injuries suffered by survivors of drunken driving crashes, he said. But Andrea Snowden, speaking for the Nebraska Defense Counsel Association, said the bill would threaten the current system, in which criminal courts mete out punishment for driving drunk while civil courts provide compensation for victims’ injuries. She said the proposal would discourage people from admitting negligence and lead to longer and more costly litigation. [email protected], 402-473-9583

LONDON (AP) — Prime Minister Boris Johnson braced Wednesday for the conclusions of an investigation into allegations of lockdown-breaching parties, a document that could help him end weeks of scandal and discontent, or bring his time in office to an abrupt close. Senior civil servant Sue Gray is probing allegations that the prime minister and his staff flouted restrictions they imposed on the country in 2020 and 2021 to curb the spread of the coronavirus with “bring your own booze” office parties, birthday celebrations and “wine time Fridays.” The claims have caused public anger, led some Conservative lawmakers to call for Johnson’s resignation, triggered intense infighting inside the governing party and sparked a criminal investigation into the prime minister and his staff by London's Metropolitan Police. Gray is believed to have finished her inquiry, but has not said when she will submit her report to the government. Expectations among lawmakers that it would come on Wednesday gradually ebbed away as the day dragged on and Parliament adjourned for the night. Johnson has promised to publish Gray's report in full and to address Parliament about its findings. The earliest that could come is now Thursday. “When I receive it, of course I will do exactly what I said,” Johnson said during a testy Prime Minister's Questions session in the House of Commons. He batted away questions about the scandal and his future, saying he had “absolutely no intention” of resigning. Wednesday's headlines provided more bad news for Johnson, whose popularity in opinion polls has plunged amid the scandal. The Guardian's front-page headline spoke of “PM’s peril,” while the left-leaning Daily Mirror said bluntly: “Number’s up, PM.” The right-of-center Daily Mail differed, declaring Britain: “A nation that has lost all sense of proportion.” Johnson has urged his critics to wait for Gray’s conclusions, but his “wait and see” defense weakened Tuesday when police said they had opened a criminal investigation into some of the gatherings. The Metropolitan Police said “a number of events” at Johnson’s Downing Street office and other government buildings met the force’s criteria for investigating the “most serious and flagrant” breaches of coronavirus rules. The “partygate” allegations have infuriated many in Britain, who were barred from meeting with friends and family for months in 2020 and 2021 to curb the spread of COVID-19. Tens of thousands of people were fined by police for breaking the rules. If detectives quiz Johnson about his involvement, it will be the first time a prime minister has been interviewed by police since Tony Blair was questioned as a witness over a “cash for honors” scandal in 2007. No one was charged in that case. Conservative lawmaker Andrew Rosindell downplayed the extent of any wrongdoing by the prime minister. “I’m sure there are ministers that get parking tickets and speed fines, too,” he said. “Lots of people break the law in small ways, sometimes unintentionally. He’s not robbed a bank." Johnson and his allies have tried, without much success, to calm a scandal that is consuming government energies that could be better spent confronting the international crisis over Russia’s military build-up near Ukraine and a far-from-finished coronavirus pandemic. Asked if Johnson was the right person to lead Britain at a time of international crisis, Defense Secretary Ben Wallace said simply: “Yes.” Johnson has apologized for attending one event, a “bring your own booze” gathering in the garden of his Downing Street offices in May 2020, but said he had considered it a work gathering that fell within the rules. Johnson's supporters have also defended a June 2020 surprise birthday party for the prime minister inside Downing Street. Loyal lawmaker Conor Burns said Johnson didn't know about the gathering in advance. “It was not a premeditated, organized party. … He was, in a sense, ambushed with a cake,” Burns told Channel 4 News. In more bad news for the prime minister, Parliament’s Foreign Affairs Committee on Wednesday published evidence that suggested Johnson personally OKed the airlift from Kabul of 200 dogs and cats from an animal charity run by a former Royal Marine. Thousands of British citizens and their Afghan allies were flown out of Kabul as the Taliban took over in August. But many other Afghans at risk were left behind, and the animal airlift was accused of diverting time and resources from rescuing people. Johnson has called claims that he intervened “nonsense.” But emails leaked by a former Foreign Office staffer involved in the evacuation effort said the “PM has just authorized … staff and animals to be evacuated.” Johnson’s office said Wednesday that Johnson “didn’t instruct officials to take any particular course of action.” Associated Press Writer Frank Jordans in Berlin contributed.

LONDON — British police on Saturday denied accusations that they had failed to pass on crucial information that could have allowed families to stop three teenage girls from traveling to Syria to join ISIS militants. Shamima Begum and Amira Abase, both 15, and Kadiza Sultana, 16, who all attended the same London school, were reported missing on Feb. 17. They flew to Turkey that day and police believe they subsequently made their way to Syria. Dozens of Britons, mostly young men but also some young women, have joined ISIS, causing much angst back home about how they were being radicalized and what could be done to stop them. Police officers had spoken to the girls in the weeks preceding their departure as part of an investigation into the disappearance of one of their school friends, an unnamed 15-year-old girl, who had left for Syria on Dec. 6. "The teenagers were all being cooperative, they were all being treated as potential witnesses and there was nothing whatsoever to indicate that they themselves were planning to travel to Syria," the police said in a statement. Several relatives of the girls have complained to British media in the past two days that they had not been told about the first girl who had gone to Syria.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A San Diego woman who alleges Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer sexually abused her has filed a countersuit to his defamation claim, alleging the baseball star beat her and left her bruised, according to a court filing. Bauer has denied abusing the woman he met through social media. He sued her for defamation in April, claiming she lied about details involving their sexual encounters in order to destroy his reputation and career while enriching herself. Major League Baseball has suspended Bauer for two years, a ruling made after Bauer sued the woman. Bauer has said he engaged in consensual rough sex with the woman but did nothing to warrant a suspension. The woman's battery claim filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles alleges again that Bauer punched and choked her on two occasions during sex in 2021. The Associated Press generally does not name people who claim to be victims of sexual assault. People are also reading… Bauer's attorneys released a statement Thursday pointing to a judge's decision last year denying the woman a restraining order. The judge said she had been “materially misleading” in part of her request. “She ‘materially misled’ the court and could not meet the lowest burden of proof in our justice system — because her claims were false,” attorneys Shawn Holley and Jon Fetterolf said. "She is being sued for defamation to be held accountable for her lies and the damage it has caused. Her countersuit is a regurgitation of her judicially disproven claims and yet another attempt ... to defame Mr. Bauer and seek to profit from her lies.” The woman's lawsuit says her life has been "turned into a nightmare by a powerful man who mercilessly battered her and counted on facing no consequences whatsoever for his despicable conduct.” After one encounter, the woman ended up with two black eyes, according to the filing. The lawsuit demands a jury trial and unspecified damages. In her response to Bauer's defamation suit, the woman denied allegations by his lawyers that she made a “false, misleading or defamatory police report” and denied she had altered or filtered photographs in requesting a restraining order in June of 2021. The woman denied she had a plan to destroy Bauer’s reputation or career, or exploit him for money, although she admits “she was angry at Plaintiff because he had sexually assaulted her.” A Los Angeles Superior Court judge declined to grant the restraining order. The Los Angeles District Attorney’s office declined to file criminal charges against Bauer. Bauer is also suing two media outlets for defamation over their coverage of the allegations. Bauer is appealing his suspension by MLB. There is no timetable for a ruling.

https://www.10news.com/news/attorneys-claim-evidence-can-clear-full-house-actress-lori-loughlin-in-college-admissions-scandal?_amp=true.txt.gz
LOS ANGELES (CNS) - Attorneys for actress Lori Loughlin and her fashion designer husband allege that newly filed papers could clear their clients and other parents fighting federal charges in Boston related to the college admissions scandal, according to court documents obtained Thursday. In a motion filed Wednesday, lawyers for the "Full House" actress and her husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, said that the couple believed the $500,000 they allegedly paid to scheme mastermind William "Rick" Singer's purported charity was a legitimate donation to USC's athletics program -- and not a bribe to a rowing coach to ensure their daughters' admission to the school as crew recruits. Loughlin's attorneys allege that FBI investigators asked Singer to lie in 2018 by telling parents in recorded calls that their money would be used for donations not bribes. "Loud and abrasive call with agents," Singer allegedly wrote in his notes. "They continue to ask me to tell a fib and not restate what I told my clients as to where their money was going -- to the program not the coach and that it was a donation and they want it to be a payment." The defense filing in Boston federal court sought to postpone the forthcoming trial, however a federal judge Thursday set an Oct. 5 trial date for Loughlin, Giannulli and six other parents accused of bribing officials at University of Southern California. Loughlin and Giannulli are accused of conspiring to commit federal program bribery by bribing employees of USC to allow their daughters' admission. In exchange for the bribes, employees of the university allegedly designated the defendants' two children as athletic recruits -- with little or no regard for their athletic abilities. The couple will stand alongside six other parents charged in the case: Gamal Abdelaziz, Diane and Todd Blake, John Wilson, Dr. Homa Zadeh -- a USC professor of dentistry -- and Robert Zangrillo. Jury selection will start Sept. 28. Seven other parents will go to trial Jan. 11, federal prosecutors said. Loughlin and Giannulli have pleaded not guilty to federal conspiracy, bribery and money-laundering charges in the scandal. The celebrity couple allegedly paid $500,000 as part of a scheme with Singer and a USC athletics official to get their two daughters into the university as members of the crew team, even though they did not participate in crew. As part of the scheme, the parents sent Singer, a Newport Beach businessman, photos of their daughters on a rowing machine, according to the criminal complaint. Prosecutors said that Loughlin and Giannulli's daughters were accepted at the university, although they are no longer enrolled. Singer, who ran a for-profit college counseling business called The Edge College & Career Network, also known as the Key, has pleaded guilty and is cooperating with the government's investigation. Dozens of parents and college athletic coaches were implicated in the 52-defendant scandal. Oscar-nominated actress Felicity Huffman was released Oct. 25 from a low-security federal prison camp in Northern California 11 days into a 14-day sentence handed down last September for paying to have a proctor correct her daughter's answers on a college-entrance exam. Huffman, 57, was also ordered to spend a year on supervised release, pay a $30,000 fine and perform 250 hours of community service. The "Desperate Housewives" actress was the first parent to be sentenced in connection with the wide-ranging college-admissions cheating scandal, a probe dubbed "Varsity Blues."

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- A 31-year-old Los Angeles police officer was arrested for allegedly having sex with a 15-year-old female police cadet, Police Chief Charlie Beck said Thursday. The arrest came amid an investigation into the theft of police cruisers and other equipment by juveniles in the department's cadet program. Beck announced the arrest of Officer Robert Cain for the alleged statutory rape of a 15-year-old cadet in a press conference Thursday. Beck said the officer has never been assigned to any of the department's youth programs. He has been with the LAPD for 10 years. Warrants were served Thursday on the officer's residence in Rancho Cucamonga, as well as his social media accounts and personal communication devices, Beck said. Neighbors say Cain lives at the Rancho Cucamonga residence with his mother. They moved in about two years ago and he hosted a barbecue for the neighborhood at the time. Beck says he personally made the arrest of the veteran officer around 2 p.m. Thursday, telling the officer, "You're under arrest for unlawful sex with a minor." "I find the actions of Cain, if they are proven, to be despicable," Beck said. "I find them to be absolutely inconsistent with the ethics and standards of the Los Angeles Police Department and they are criminal." Detectives have also searched the 15-year-old cadet's cellphone. They have not seen any pictures indicating a relationship, but Beck said he saw text messages that "were sufficient." The development comes just days after seven arrests were announced in the alleged theft of police cruisers by teen cadets who police say took the vehicles out for joyrides. The alleged victim was among the group of cadets arrested in connection with the vehicle theft, Beck said. MORE: 3 teen LAPD cadets suspected of stealing police SUVs, impersonating officers Beck said Cain was in charge of "the mechanism by which" LAPD equipment was checked out from the department. The initial investigation was sparked after three teen cadets led officers on two separate chases and crashed two of the stolen vehicles in South LA. MORE: 4 more LAPD cadets arrested after theft of police vehicles The first vehicle crashed in the area of 77th and San Pedro streets, while a second one ended in a crash at Central Avenue and Adams Boulevard. Authorities found two Tasers and two radios as well as a bulletproof vest that one of the suspects was wearing when he was taken into custody. After interviewing the suspects, officers realized there was a third patrol vehicle that was missing. It was found near 76th Street and Central Avenue, authorities said. Investigators also uncovered "a couple of occasions" where the cadets involved were believed to have made traffic stops in stolen cruisers, according to Beck. Beck said the department is conducting an "absolutely top-to-bottom review of the program" as well as equipment check-out procedures. Despite the investigation, a graduation ceremony for the cadet program is expected to continue as scheduled on Saturday.

LOS ANGELES » More than 20 years after O.J. Simpson’s ex-wife and a friend were stabbed to death, police revealed today they are examining a knife that was reportedly found at the home where the former football star was living at the time. The announcement marked yet another twist in a case that’s had more unexpected turns than television’s best crime shows. The knife was believed to have been recovered by a construction worker tearing down the house. The worker then gave it to an off-duty police officer who was working as a security guard at a filming location, police said. It was unclear when the knife was found and how long it was held by the officer, who is now retired. The knife was being analyzed by a Los Angeles Police Department crime lab for DNA or other material that could possibly link it to the killings. Capt. Andy Neiman stressed that the authenticity of the story was not confirmed and that investigators were looking into whether “this whole story is possibly bogus from the get-go.” “It’s unusual how this all of a sudden becomes a huge story during this time,” Neiman added, referring to the popular “People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story” anthology that is airing on the FX television channel. Simpson was charged and acquitted in the slayings. Even if the knife is linked to him, legal experts say he could not be criminally charged again because of protections against double jeopardy. “If they were going to find this knife and make it useful in the murder trial, they should have found it 20 years ago, and they didn’t,” said Loyola Law School professor Laurie Levenson, a former federal prosecutor and longtime observer of the Simpson case. “It will just raise more questions about the incompetence of the investigation and probably lead to more books and more movies.” The weapon used in the killings has been a mystery for decades. Other knives have surfaced during the case but were not linked to the crimes. In 1994, a salesman testified at a preliminary hearing that he sold Simpson a knife before the killings. That same month a woman turned in a red-stained kitchen knife she said she found near Simpson’s home, and a handle and a piece of blade of a knife were found in a tank that collects waste from airplanes at O’Hare International Airport in Chicago, where Simpson flew the night of the killings. In 1998, a residential construction crew found a folding-blade knife in Simpson’s former neighborhood, but police said there was no evidence to show it was related to any crime. The bodies of Nicole Brown Simpson and friend Ronald Goldman were found stabbed multiple times outside her home on June 12, 1994. The discovery led to the so-called “Trial of the Century,” in which Simpson was represented by a team of high-profile attorneys led by the flamboyant Johnnie Cochran. A jury acquitted Simpson in 1995 after deliberating only four hours. In 1997, a civil court jury found him liable for the slayings and awarded $33.5 million in damages to the victims’ families. Fred Goldman, father of victim Ron Goldman, declined to discuss this latest turn in the case. “He doesn’t feel he has much to say at this point. He wants to wait until he knows more,” Goldman’s wife, Patti Goldman, said during a brief phone interview. Simpson’s Brentwood mansion was torn down after he moved to Florida following his acquittal. Simpson, who has always maintained his innocence in the killings, is now serving a sentence of nine to 33 years in a Nevada prison for a 2007 armed robbery and kidnapping conviction in which he tried to retrieve football memorabilia. He is eligible for parole next year. His Las Vegas lawyer said he had not talked to Simpson about the knife but questioned who was in possession of it over the years. “The only thing I’ve heard is that some cop claims some other guy claims he found a knife on some property,” attorney Malcolm LaVergne said. “From what I can see, there’s no chain of custody.” Simpson becomes eligible for parole in 2017. If the knife turns out to be linked to him, that fact could be raised at his hearing. “The Nevada Parole Board may consider and give relevant weight to any evidence that bears on whether the release of the petitioning inmate could constitute a danger to the public,” the state attorney general’s office said in a statement. Authorities do not know the identity of the person who found the knife and have asked that he or she come forward. Police are also looking into whether criminal charges could be filed against the officer who held onto the knife, Neiman said, adding that any officer who comes into contact with evidence is required to turn it over to investigators in all circumstances. ___ Associated Press writers John Antczak and Christine Armario in Los Angeles and Ken Ritter in Las Vegas contributed to this story.

LOS ANGELES — Actor Armie Hammer is under investigation for sexual assault, Los Angeles police said Thursday. Hammer's attorney denied the allegation. Hammer is the main suspect in a sexual assault that was reported to police on Feb. 3, LAPD spokesman Officer Drake Madison said. Police would give no further details on the incident or who made the report. Earlier Thursday at a video news conference, a woman said that on April 24, 2017, in Los Angeles, Hammer raped her for four hours, slammed her head against a wall and committed other violent acts against her. The Associated Press does not generally identify alleged victims of sexual assault. The woman appeared on camera but identified herself only by her first name, Effie. “During those four hours I tried to get away but he wouldn’t let me,” she said through tears. “I thought that he was going to kill me. He then left with no concern for my well-being.” The woman's attorney, Gloria Allred, said they had given evidence to Los Angeles police, including photos of Effie's injuries. Allred declined to say when they made the report, and would not confirm that it was the one made in February that the LAPD is investigating. Effie was 20 when she and Hammer met on Facebook and began a relationship in 2016, and they had their last contact last year, Allred said. Hammer's attorney said in a statement that from the beginning he has maintained that all of his interactions with Effie and every other sexual partner "have been completely consensual, discussed and agreed upon in advance, and mutually participatory." The statement called her allegations “attention seeking and ill-advised” and said “her own correspondence with Mr. Hammer undermines and refutes her outrageous allegations.” “With the truth on his side, Mr. Hammer welcomes the opportunity to set the record straight,” Andrew Brettler said. The statement included a screenshot that Brettler said was a text message exchange in July of last year between Hammer and Effie, in which she expresses a desire for rough, forceful sex with him, and he responds by saying he no longer wants a relationship with her. The 34-year-old actor was married at the time to television personality Elizabeth Chambers. They divorced last year. Hammer first gained fame through playing twins in 2010’s “The Social Network,” and is best known for his starring roles in 2017’s “Call Me By Your Name” and 2013’s “The Lone Ranger.” Most recently, Hammer starred in the Netflix remake of “Rebecca.” A sequel to “Call Me by Your Name” with Timothée Chalamet has also been in development. Allegations of sexual violence in recent months have derailed Hammer's career. Earlier this year, an Instagram account began posting screenshots of text messages allegedly from Hammer as far back as 2016. Allred would not comment on whether her client was behind that account, @houseofeffie. When those text messages began appearing in media reports, Hammer called them “vicious and spurious online attacks against me.” After those texts were published, Hammer departed the comedy “Shotgun Wedding,” in which he was to star alongside Jennifer Lopez, shortly before production was to begin. He soon after departed the Paramount+ series “The Offer,” about the making of “The Godfather.” Hammer was also dropped by his agency, WME.

LOS ANGELES — Netflix has reached an agreement to resume production on "House of Cards" season 6 — the show's final season — in early 2018, according to chief content officer Ted Sarandos. Production of "House of Cards" season 6 was suspended in October, following sexual assault allegations against star Kevin Spacey. Season six of the political thriller will be eight episodes, starring Robin Wright. The final season will not include Spacey, as previously announced. "We were really excited we could get to an agreement... for the conclusion of the show," said Sarandos, speaking Monday at UBS's Global Media and Communications Conference in New York.

Sarandos said he was gratified to have reached the deal for the team of 370 people who directly work on the show and for "the 2,000 people in Baltimore" who have jobs working on "HOC." Netflix, already a huge buyer of programming, is jacking up its content budget for 2018 — projecting it will spend between $7 billion and $8 billion, up from $6 billion this year. The streamer's content slate for next year includes around 80 original films through productions or acquisitions, Sarandos reiterated, which he'd told investors on Netflix's earnings call in October. One-third of all viewing on Netflix is of movies, he said. For most movies, theatrical release is a "lousy business," he said. "The question is, can you shake up the market enough for big event movies to be only on Netflix?" He said he's hopeful theaters would screen a movie like "Bright," the Will Smith cop movie set for Dec. 22 release, "because people want to go out on Friday night." Sarandos also said Netflix will expand animated feature films, potentially releasing four or five per year, and has 60 kids' series in production along with 30 anime originals from Japan. In addition, Netflix will ramp up local-language productions, targeting 30 international scripted series around the world in 2018. Related: Here's all the men accused of misconduct since Weinstein "We've been careful to not become a one-brand network. The way to do that is having a lot of variety, and executing in multiple genres at a high level," Sarandos said, noting Netflix has made forays into unscripted shows and stand-up specials. Last week, Netflix renewed hit supernatural series "Stranger Things" for season 3 and David Fincher's "Mindhunter" about FBI serial-killer profilers for season 2, while it cancelled "Haters Back Off" featuring YouTube's Miranda Sings (created and played by Colleen Ballinger) after two seasons. "The returning-series phenomenon is really exciting," Sarandos said, adding, "Last year, there was zero anticipation of 'Stranger Things'" before the show from the Duffer Brothers became a huge franchise. For "The Crown," the Queen Elizabeth II series that reportedly had a budget of about $170 million, "almost all the press was about how much it cost," Sarandos said. But in fact, he said, it's "one of our most efficient shows" in terms of the number of people who have viewed the show and its ability to attract new subscribers. The second season of "The Crown" debuts Dec. 8.

LOS ANGELES — The owner of the Los Angeles Times is in talks to sell the newspaper to a billionaire medical entrepreneur. Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, a major shareholder of parent company Tronc Inc., would pay $500 million for the newspaper and the San Diego Union-Tribune, a person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press after word of the sale was first reported by The Washington Post and Times. The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the sale hadn't been finalized, said the deal was coming together quickly, but cautioned it could still fall apart. The sale would come amid turmoil at the Times, which has had a series of publishers and top editors in recent years. Publisher Ross Levinsohn is on unpaid leave after revelations he was a defendant in two sexual harassment lawsuits at other companies. Journalists voted last month to unionize for the first time in the paper's 136-year history. Soon-Shiong, said by Forbes to be the nation's richest doctor, made the bulk of his fortune selling two of the drug companies that he founded for a total of nearly $9 billion a decade ago. Forbes put his current wealth at $7.8 billion. Soon-Shiong is currently working on a cure for cancer. He owns more than a quarter of shares in Chicago-based Tronc, the company formerly known as Tribune Publishing. It owns 10 U.S. newspapers, including the Chicago Tribune, Baltimore Sun and New York Daily News. Tronc did not issue any public statement about the deal and a spokeswoman for Soon-Shiong did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Word of the possible sale was met with cheers at the Times, according to reporters tweeting from the newsroom. Soon-Shiong's holdings include not only his Tronc stock but also a minority interest in the Los Angeles Lakers that he purchased in 2011 from Magic Johnson, the team's former superstar and current president of basketball operations. In an interview with the Times last year, Soon-Shiong declined to say if he planned to buy the newspaper, although he acknowledged that as a major stockholder he was unhappy with the way it was being run and felt a need to ensure its survival. "I am concerned there are other agendas, independent of the newspaper's needs or the fiduciary obligations to the viability of the organization," he said at the time. "My goal is to try and preserve the integrity and the viability of the newspaper." If approved, the sale would come about a week after veteran Chicago journalist Jim Kirk was named editor in chief to replace Lewis D'Vorkin, whose short tenure was marked by clashes with staff. Kirk, 52, became the third top editor at the Times in less than six months. He had briefly served in the job on an interim basis during a management overhaul from August until November, when D'Vorkin joined the paper. Reporters at the Times have become alarmed by recent hiring of several news executives who reported to business executives — not to editors in the newsroom. Those hires sparked fears that the business side would wield undue influence in editorial matters. Traditionally, the editorial and business sides of a paper work separately to maintain journalistic credibility.

Lancaster Man Arrested on Drug Trafficking Charges COLUMBUS, Ohio – Chris R. Cook, 45, of Lancaster, Ohio, was arrested this morning on charges related to distributing methamphetamine. He was charged by criminal complaint with possessing and conspiring to possess with the intent to distribute in excess of 50 grams of the drug. Benjamin C. Glassman, United States Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio, Timothy J. Plancon, Special Agent in Charge, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Angela L. Byers, Special Agent in Charge, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Cincinnati Division, Lancaster Police Chief Adam Pillar and members of the Fairfield Hocking Major Crimes Unit announced the charges. According to the affidavit filed in support of the complaint, law enforcement received several citizen complaints regarding suspected drug trafficking at Cook’s residence on S. Cedar Avenue and his business on Welsh Avenue in Lancaster. Investigators established surveillance on the properties and observed activity consistent with drug trafficking. During a coordinated traffic stop, Fairfield County Sheriff’s Deputies stopped a vehicle that had been present at residence on S. Cedar Avenue and discovered six grams of crystal meth. Law enforcement officials also conducted several controlled purchases of meth, both at Cook’s residence and business. Cook had entrances to his residence barricaded as well as surveillance cameras on the property. When he was arrested, agents discovered him in possession of a bullet-proof vest and additional methamphetamine. Cook is scheduled to appear in federal court today at 1:30pm before U.S. Magistrate Judge Kimberly A. Jolson. U.S. Attorney Glassman commended the investigation of this case by law enforcement and Assistant United States Attorney Timothy Prichard, who is prosecuting the case. A criminal complaint merely contains allegations, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law. # # #

Las Vegas Man Sentenced For Straw Purchasing Ten Rifles LAS VEGAS, Nev. — A Las Vegas resident was sentenced Friday to two years in prison for making a straw purchase of ten FN M249S 5.56 caliber semi-automatic rifles, announced U.S. Attorney Nicholas A. Trutanich for the District of Nevada. The FN M249S rifle is a semi-automatic version of the FN M249 SAW machine gun used by the U.S. military. Ethan Erhardt, 37, previously pleaded guilty to one count of illegal acquisition of a firearm. U.S. District Judge James C. Mahan presided over the hearing. According to court documents, on February 16, 2019, Erhardt straw purchased firearms from a Federal Firearms Licensee in Henderson, Nevada, on behalf of another individual. Erhardt bought ten FN M249S 5.56 caliber semi-automatic rifles for approximately $88,000.00, using money provided by the other individual. At the time of purchase, Erhardt completed an ATF form representing that he was the actual buyer of the firearms — despite knowing that the rifles would actually be provided to the other individual, who in turn would then provide those firearms to a third party. This case was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Assistant U.S. Attorney Daniel Clarkson prosecuted the case. This case is part of Project Guardian, the Department of Justice’s signature initiative to reduce gun violence and enforce federal firearms laws. Initiated by the Attorney General in the fall of 2019, Project Guardian draws upon the Department’s past successful programs to reduce gun violence; enhances coordination of federal, state, local, and tribal authorities in investigating and prosecuting gun crimes; improves information-sharing by the ATF when a prohibited individual attempts to purchase a firearm and is denied by the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), to include taking appropriate actions when a prospective purchaser is denied by the NICS for mental health reasons; and ensures that federal resources are directed at the criminals posing the greatest threat to our communities.

Lawyer Sentenced For Stealing Client Funds PHILADELPHIA - Gomer Thomas Williams, 54, of Philadelphia, PA, was sentenced today to 24 months in prison and ordered to pay restitution for a scheme to defraud clients of the legal firm where he worked. Williams was an attorney and associate with the Philadelphia law firm, Spector Gadon & Rosen (“Spector”). Between 2007 and 2012, Williams defrauded four of his trust and estate clients of approximately $503,361 by diverting funds from his clients’ accounts to his personal accounts, and by overbilling his clients for legal work that was not performed. He pleaded guilty in March to one count of wire fraud. For the trusts, Williams was the trustee, and, for the estates, Williams was the administrator and/or executor. Williams exercised complete control over the victim-clients’ funds, including controlling their checking accounts. Williams abused his fiduciary position in transferring funds from their accounts to pay his own personal expenses, including his mortgage. In addition to the prison term, U.S. District Court Judge Legrome Davis ordered restitution in the amount of $503,361, three years of supervised release, and a $100 special assessment. The case was investigated by the FBI and is being prosecuted by First Assistant United States Attorney Louis D. Lappen.

I feel like I’m honestly living a dream right now.” Sept. 2, 2017: OU trounces UTEP 56-7 in Riley’s first game as head coach. The Sooners total 676 yards.

"He will be successful. I guarantee it," former Missouri head coach Gary Pinkel said of L'Damian Washington, who was named Oklahoma's interim wide receivers coach following Cale Gundy resignation Sunday night. Bob Stoops was a pacifying force for OU football this week, telling everyone to move on after Cale Gundy's abrupt resignation Sunday night. Eli Lederman and Eric Bailey talk about how Brent Venables handled his most difficult situation since becoming head coach.

MASHPEE BROTHERS INDICTED FOR ARMED BANK ROBBERY BOSTON, MA - Two Mashpee brothers were charged in federal court with the armed bank robbery of the Rockland Trust in Bourne, MA. United States Attorney Carmen M. Ortiz and Warren T. Bamford, Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation - Boston Field Division, announced that TRAVIS BUCHANAN and SPRAGUE BUCHANAN, both of Mashpee, were charged with armed bank robbery. The Indictment alleges that on November 17, 2009, SPRAGUE BUCHANAN, armed with a dangerous weapon, entered the Rockland Trust located on Clay Pond Road in Bourne. It is alleged that, once inside SPRAGUE BUCHANAN brandished an item, which resembled a hand gun, and demanded money from the teller. The teller complied with BUCHANAN’s demands and he fled from the bank. It is further alleged that his twin brother, TRAVIS BUCHANAN, was waiting for him in a neighboring parking lot. SPRAGUE BUCHANAN entered the vehicle and the two fled from the scene. They were later arrested in Mashpee with the money and the weapon. If convicted on these charges, TRAVIS BUCHANAN and SPRAGUE BUCHANAN each face 25 years imprisonment, a fine of up to $250,000 to be followed by 5 years of supervised release. The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Bourne and Mashpee Police Departments and the Barnstable County District Attorney’s Office. It is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Kenneth G. Shine of Ortiz's Major Crime Unit. The details contained in the Indictment are allegations. The defendants are presumed to be innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.

MEDIA — Common Pleas Court Judge James F. Proud took swift action on the most current Third Street Dam/Bridge litigation. His ruling, issued Feb. 25, revoked the stipulation and order of May 26, 2011, regarding design of the closed span’s reconstruction. The judge’s order puts the three parties — Media Borough, Broomall’s Lake Country Club and Delaware County — back at the table to try crafting a new agreement. The latest litigation resulted from the Broomall’s Lake Country Club’s petition for contempt. The club held that Media council’s design decisions did not comply with the language of the 2011 stipulation, which was the outcome of years of litigation on ownership. By a 4-3 vote, council approved the design for the dam structure and a one-lane, one-way (eastbound) roadway. The club argued that the stipulation called for “re-establishment” of the road, contending that meant a two-lane, two-way thoroughfare, which it had been for nearly a century. The borough’s design, coming after nearly two years of deliberation, data gathering and residents’ input, was thought to be a “compromise” with the expressed desire of some community members to limit construction and the environmental impact, according to borough council President Brian Hall. In his order, Proud noted the stipulation executed by the parties formed the basis for the court to sign it, and that the stipulation was an agreement of the three parties. In the contempt petition, the county was aligned with the club’s argument. “The order was not the result of independent analysis by the court. Rather, the underlying consent of the parties formed the foundation of the request (to) become an order pursuant to the signature of the judge. “It is now clear that at least two of the parties are in serious disagreement as to whether or not the parties ever actually came to an agreement,” Proud wrote. The judge added that the 2011 agreement was based on the desire of the parties, but differing opinions and interpretation of the language were the basis for revoking that agreement. Neither the club nor the borough is pleased. “We are very disappointed with the judge’s ruling,” said Broomall’s Lake Country Club Board of Directors President Paul Cavanagh. “It is the belief of the club and county that the agreement called for a two-lane, two-way road.” The 2011 council, which unanimously approved the stipulation, differed from the current council make-up. “I feel bad that politics has gotten in the way of this process,” said Cavanagh, noting that several of the current council members campaigned on limiting the scope of the dam/bridge development. “It was all set to move ahead before the one-lane, one-way plan. Essentially, it has been two years wasted.” Hall agreed the court’s decision “turns the calendar back two years.” “Council worked long and hard to sift through all the issues and we thought we reached a common sense compromise. We disagreed that we were required to build the road with two lanes,” said Hall, adding that he was pleased the judge’s finding did not support that mandate. “I hope we can resolve this amicably.” With the matter now returning to its status prior to the 2011 stipulation, Proud’s cover letter suggested reconvening for a conference to “discuss and hopefully come to an agreement on what steps need to be taken from this time forward.” Those options are not limited to a new agreement and stipulation. Appeals of the judge’s decision can be taken to Commonwealth Court. A new stipulation does not have to conform to construction of a dam and bridge, since PennDOT, which is largely funding the project, has indicated the borough has greater latitude in dealing with the overall issue.

MEMBER OF NEW BEDFORD STREET GANG SENTENCED FOR NARCOTICS OFFENSES Boston, Mass. - A member of the Montes Park street gang in New Bedford was sentenced today in federal court on drug charges. United States Attorney Carmen M. Ortiz; James C. Burrell, Acting Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation - Boston Field Division; C. Samuel Sutter, Bristol County District Attorney ; Massachusetts State Police Colonel Marian McGovern; New Bedford Police Chief Ronald Teachman; and Bristol County Sheriff Thomas M. Hodgson, announced that AARON VAUGHAN, 34, of New Bedford, was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge Joseph L. Tauro, to 40 months incarceration, to be followed by six years of supervised release. On May 3, 2010, VAUGHAN pleaded guilty to a one count Indictment charging him with Distribution of Cocaine Base and Abetting and Abetting. On the date of the plea, the prosecutor informed the Court that, had the case proceeded to trial, the evidence would have proven that on March 26, 2008, VAUGHAN and a co-defendant sold 1.6 grams of crack cocaine to a undercover cooperating witness in exchange for money. The indictments, as well as a detention affidavit filed with the Court in connection with the investigation into the Montes Park gang, alleged that VAUGHAN was a member of the New Bedford Montes Park street gang. Throughout the more than nine-month investigation, it is alleged that law enforcement made purchases of crack cocaine or firearms from various Montes Park street gang defendants. It is alleged that the Montes Park street gang has a long history of involvement in a variety of illegal activities, including violence against rival gang members, and drug and firearm trafficking. It is further alleged that the Montes Park street gang has been involved in a gang war in New Bedford with a rival area gang over a period of time resulting in numerous shootings, murders, and other acts of violence. VAUGHN is the second Montes Park gang member to be sentenced in federal court in the past week. On July 15, RAYMOND GREEN, 40, of New Bedford, was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge George A. O’Toole, Jr., to 78 months incarceration, to be followed by three years of supervised release. In May, GREEN pleaded guilty to a two-count Indictment charging him with conspiracy to distribute cocaine base, distribution of cocaine base and abetting and abetting. Both cases were investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Southeastern Massachusetts Gang Task Force and were prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Suzanne Sullivan in Ortiz’s Strike Force Unit.

https://www.abc15.com/news/region-southeast-valley/mesa/two-teens-arrested-after-making-threats-at-mesa-high-schools?_amp=true.txt.gz
MESA, AZ — Two teens have been arrested after making false threats at two different Mesa Public Schools Friday. The Mesa Police Department says they have responded to multiple threat calls at schools within Mesa this week. The two students who attend different high schools were criminally charged for the false threats. Police say a 14-year-old girl at Red Mountain High School was charged Friday after claiming she had an explosive device in her backpack Friday at around 9:30 a.m. She was then released to her parent and charges were filed through the Maricopa County Attorney, Juvenile Division. In a separate incident Friday, a 15-year-old boy at Dobson High School was charged for threats and interference with or disruption of an educational facility after posting the threat on social media at around 7:30 a.m. The school was put on lockdown due to the threat. He was then released to his legal guardian and charges were filed through the Maricopa County Attorney, Juvenile Division. "It just interferes with law enforcement and the smooth ability and interferes for both police and fire department to respond to legitimate crime," said Chuck Trapani with the Mesa Police Department. "Parents you have a huge responsibility when you have kids, you need to talk to your kids about responsible social media posting." A spokesperson for Mesa Public Schools provided this statement to ABC15 about the students: "The students involved will receive appropriate disciplinary consequences pending the outcome of the investigation. Consequences for threats range from suspension to expulsion." After the incidents, the Mesa Police Department says they take all threats seriously and released the following statement. "Over the past several days the Mesa Police Department has responded to multiple threat calls involving schools within our city. All of these threats are taken seriously and are thoroughly investigated. These threats do not only have serious consequences, but can cause severe emotional distress to students, parents, school staff and the overall community. Several of the threats we have experienced over the past week were from social media platforms. We want to share some tips about creating or even sharing false on-line threats: - Don’t ever post or send any false threats on-line - If you feel you are the target of an on-line threat, immediately report it to the police - If you see a threat of violence posted on social media immediately report it to the police - Please notify the police of any threat, but do not forward or share the posted threat before police can investigate it.

MIAMI (AP) — Two men charged with drug trafficking could have done a better job hiding their wares than using a package labeled "Bag Full of Drugs," Florida authorities said. Ian Simmons and Joshua Reinhardt, both 34, were pulled over in Santa Rosa County on Saturday after a trooper clocked them going 95 mph (153 kph) on Interstate 10 on the state's Panhandle, according to a Florida Highway Patrol arrest report. The trooper determined that Reinhardt was the subject of an active felony warrant for violation of probation in Orange County. He requested backup. A Santa Rosa County Sheriff's deputy arrived to assist, and a K-9 alerted to the presence of contraband in the vehicle, the arrest report said. Authorities found approximately 75 grams of methamphetamine, 1.36 kilograms of the date-rape drug GHB, 1 gram of cocaine, 3.6 grams of fentanyl, 15 MDMA tablets and drug paraphernalia. Both men were taken into custody and taken to jail. They are charged with trafficking in methamphetamine and GHB, three counts of possession of a controlled substance, and possession of drug paraphernalia. "Note to self- do not traffic your illegal narcotics in bags labeled 'Bag Full Of Drugs,'" deputies wrote on Facebook. "Our K-9's can read." Jail records did not say whether the men had attorneys who could comment.

MIDVALE — Even in the face of a month of unprecedented turbulence for Utah e-commerce platform Overstock.com, the company’s blockchain technology-focused investment subsidiary Medici Ventures appears to be moving full steam ahead and on Thursday announced a $2 million investment in Salt Lake-based identity security startup Evernym. Overstock’s market value has reeled since mercurial figurehead and longtime CEO Patrick Byrne resigned in late August following news stories, and statements from Byrne, that detailed his alleged involvement in covert, international government investigations. Last week, Byrne divested almost 5 million shares of stock in the company he remade in the 1990s, and then Overstock Chief Financial Officer Greg Iverson resigned. After hitting a three month low of $11.19 on Sept. 18, the day after Iverson announced his departure, the stock has recovered slightly and was trading at $12.53 at the end of regular trading Thursday, a price that falls below the company’s 2002 IPO per share value. Medici, however, remains bullish on the downstream potential of companies putting blockchain technology to practical use. Its investment in Evernym, by way of convertible, simple agreement for future equity (SAFE) certificates, appears as further evidence of an ongoing mission the company says is driven by the goal to “democratize capital, eliminate middlemen and rehumanize commerce.” Jonathan Johnson, Medici president and now the official Overstock CEO following his interim appointment after Byrne’s exit, said Evernym is innovating new, blockchain-based tools to allow individuals to assert control over their personal identity information. “Evernym is bridging the gap between the siloed approach to identity and true self-sovereign identity,” Johnson said in a statement. “Evernym’s platform allows every person, organization and connected thing to have an independent identity. Evernym fills out Medici Ventures’ identity pillar within our keiretsu and will help advance our government-as-a-service technology stack for civilization.” Evernym President Steve Havas told the Deseret News the personal identity protections his company is innovating, which run off a decentralized, distributed ledger blockchain platform, are already being adopted by some consumer-facing financial institutions looking to bolster identity security. “At Evernym, we’re adding a layer of trust to the Internet,” Havas said in a statement. “Our self-sovereign identity platform allows organizations to issue verified digital credentials to their customers, which those consumers can then use to prove who they are to anyone, anywhere. “As a result, businesses can foster more trusted digital relationships with their customers, while offering a more secure, seamless and privacy-protecting experience.” While issues with cryptocurrencies based on distributed ledger platforms have, perhaps, become the most visible touchstone for the general public’s familiarity with blockchain, a recent Forbes report by Jefferson Nunn noted the utility of decentralized systems has much broader potential uses. Nunn notes that since the 2017 Equifax breach that leaked data on as many as 143 million Americans, another 29 major breaches have exposed the personal data of 1 billion people worldwide. “Bitcoin and blockchain have been attacked by pundits solely because of the price action,” Nunn wrote. “A closer look by enterprising professionals could reveal a treasure trove of improved security and reliability around personal data and to reduce the threat of attacks. Companies of all types, including insurance companies, could save billions by taking the proper action to secure the data.” In a Deseret News interview last month, Johnson said over $200 million has flowed into the Medici investments and he expects that moving forward, the growth of the blockchain-based product innovations will outpace what’s happening in an e-commerce realm that has a lot more competitors now than when Overstock launched in 1999 as an inventory liquidator. “I see strong growth on both sides, but the potential for exponential growth is in the blockchain companies,” Johnson said. “Many of the (18 currently) companies in the portfolio now have products in, or nearing, production.” Industry watchers generally viewed Byrne’s separation from the company, both as an executive and later as a stockholder, as a net win for Overstock, particularly in light of the nature of his claims as being some sort of “deep state” operative. But Iverson’s exit appeared to touch off investor worries. In the meantime, Overstock has appointed a veteran financial officer, Robert Hughes, as acting chief financial officer and begun a search for a permanent replacement. Johnson said having someone with Hughes’ background and experience overseeing Overstock finances while the search for a permanent replacement plays out will ensure the company “does not miss a beat.” “Rob was the company’s (senior vice president) of finance and risk management for five years and v.p. and controller for four years. He is intimately familiar with Overstock’s businesses and financial systems,” Johnson said in a statement. “Under his guidance, Overstock had steady and positive financial results and reporting. I’ve worked closely with Rob for many years, and he is a great person to oversee our finance department while we look for a permanent CFO. I appreciate his willingness to step in during the transition.” Overstock declined a Deseret News request for comment on Byrne’s stock liquidation, instead referencing a statement distributed by the company in a press release Monday. “Since his departure on Aug. 22, Byrne has not held any management or board responsibility,” the statement reads. “Byrne continues to be a public figure, and the views he expresses and actions he takes are his own.”

MINNEAPOLIS — Derek Chauvin es ahora el primer policía blanco en ser condenado por el asesinato de un civil en Minnesota. El expolicía de Minneapolis fue encontrado culpable de asesinato en segundo grado, asesinato en tercer grado y asesinato culposo en segundo grado por la muerte de Floyd. El jurado en el caso delibero en su veredicto el martes por la tarde después de tres semanas de testimonios de los testigos durante ese tiempo tuvieron que ver videos gráficos de Chauvin poniendo su rodilla sobre Floyd por nueve minutos y 29 segundos mientras que Floyd gritaba, ‘No puedo respirar”. El caso se convirtió en bandera para activistas de todo el mundo, con el reverendo Al Sharpton recalcando que el acusado en el juicio estaba siendo vigilado en todo los Estados Unidos. Cauvin fue retirado en esposas de inmediatamente después de que el juez leyera el veredicto. El juez Peer Cahill pronto dará fecha para la sentencia, la cual se lleva a cabo en un par de semanas. RELATED: Derek Chauvin es hallado culpable de asesinato y homicidio culposo en la muerte de George Floyd Antes de que Chauvin sea sentenciado, se llevara a cabo una investigación previa a la sentencia. El juez jubilado, LaJune Lange la describe como una “revisión de antecedentes” para el acusado, mediante la cual otros factores pueden recompilarse para ayudar al juez a determinar el tiempo de la sentencia. La acusación también ha llenado una petición “Blakely” para una salida ascendida basada en factores agravados. Chauvin reuncio a su derecho de tener a un jurado que decidiera si esos factores son suficientes para justificar una larga sentencia, en su lugar, escogió que el juez Cahill tomara la decisión por si solo. La sentencia máxima que Chauvin podría enfrentar es de 40 años por asesinato sin intención en segundo grado, 25 años por asesinato en tercer grado y 10 años por asesinato culposo en segundo grado. Esas sentencias es muy probable que sean cumplidas al mismo tiempo y no consecutivamente debido a que todas son por el mismo crimen. Las presuntas sentencias bajo la guía de sentencias de Minnesota son de 12 años y medio por cada cargo de asesinato y cuatro años por cada cargo de asesinato culposo. Esas sentencias son para una persona con un historial criminal de cero, lo cual quiere decir que no tiene un récord criminal. Sin factores agravantes, el juez podría usar su discreción para dar una sentencia tan corta como 10 años y ocho meses o tan larga como 15 años por cada cargo de asesinato y de tres años y cinco meses a cuatro años y nueve meses por asesinato culposo. Aunque, el juez podría considerar una sentencia más fuerte con un máximo de 40 años basado en la petición de la parte acusadora Blakely. Un factor agravado que el juez podría considerar es que hubo un menos de 9 años como testigo del asesinato.

MINNEAPOLIS — The judge overseeing the trial of a former Minneapolis police officer accused in the death of George Floyd on Monday paused jury selection for at least a day while an appeal proceeds over the possible reinstatement of a third-degree murder charge. As hundreds of protesters gathered outside the courthouse to call for the conviction of Derek Chauvin, Judge Peter Cahill said he does not have jurisdiction to rule on whether the third-degree murder charge should be reinstated against the former officer while the issue is being appealed. But he said prosecutors’ arguments that the whole case would be impacted was “tenuous.” Cahill initially ruled that jury selection would begin as scheduled on Monday, but prosecutors said they would ask the Court of Appeals to intervene, which could put the case on hold, so the judge sent the potential jurors home for the day. Chauvin is charged with second-degree murder and manslaughter in Floyd’s death. Legal experts say reinstating the third-degree murder charge would improve the odds of getting a conviction. Chauvin’s attorney, Eric Nelson, said Monday he would ask the state Supreme Court to review a Court of Appeals decision that ordered Cahill to reconsider the charge. Jury selection is expected to take at least three weeks, as prosecutors and defense attorneys try to weed out people who may be biased against them. “You don’t want jurors who are completely blank slates, because that would mean they’re not in tune at all with the world,” Susan Gaertner, a former prosecutor, said. “But what you want is jurors who can set aside opinions that have formed prior to walking into the courtroom and give both sides a fair hearing.” Floyd was declared dead May 25 after Chauvin, who is white, pressed his knee against the handcuffed Black man’s neck for about nine minutes, holding his position even after Floyd went limp. Floyd’s death sparked sometimes violent protests in Minneapolis and beyond, and led to a nationwide reckoning on race. Chauvin and three other officers were fired; the others face an August trial on aiding and abetting charges. Hundreds of people gathered outside the courthouse as proceedings began, many carrying signs that read, “Justice for George Floyd” and “Convict Killer Cops.” One speaker took a microphone and decried the barricades — concrete barriers topped by chain-link fencing, barbed wire and razor wire— set up around the courthouse. He also ridiculed talk of the Chauvin trial as “the trial of the century,” saying all the jury needs to do is “do the right thing.” Then he led the crowd in chants of “The whole world is watching!” Inside the courtroom, Chauvin, in a blue suit and black mask, followed the proceedings attentively, making notes on a legal pad. Nelson earlier argued that pretrial publicity of the case and the subsequent violent unrest in Minneapolis would make it impossible to find an impartial jury in Hennepin County. But Judge Peter Cahill said last year that moving the trial probably wouldn’t cure the problem of a potentially tainted jury pool because “no corner of the State of Minnesota” has been shielded from pretrial publicity. The potential jurors — who must be at least 18, U.S. citizens and residents of Hennepin County — were sent questionnaires to determine how much they have heard about the case and whether they’ve formed any opinions. Besides biographical and demographic information, jurors were asked about prior contacts with police, whether they have protested against police brutality and whether they believe the justice system is fair. Some of the questions get specific, such as how often a potential juror has watched the bystander video of Floyd’s arrest, or whether they carried a sign at a protest and what that sign said. Mike Brandt, a local defense attorney, said prosecutors will likely seek out jurors who have favorable opinions on the Black Lives Matter movement or might have more outrage over Floyd’s death, while Chauvin’s attorneys would likely favor jurors who support the police. Unlike typical jury selection proceedings, potential jurors will be questioned individually rather than in a group. The judge, defense attorney and prosecutors will all get to ask questions. The defense can object to up to 15 potential jurors without giving a reason; prosecutors can block up to nine without providing a reason. Either side can object to these peremptory challenges if they believe the sole reason for disqualifying a juror is race or gender. Both sides can also argue to dismiss an unlimited number of jurors “for cause,” meaning they must provide a reason why they believe that juror shouldn’t serve. Those situations can get into some detailed machinations, Brandt said, and it’s up to the judge to decide whether a juror stays or goes. “Sometimes there is some tortured questioning,” Brandt said. He said that even if a juror says they have had a negative interaction with the police, or a negative opinion about Black Lives Matter, the key will be trying to find out whether they can put those past experiences or opinions aside and be fair. “We all walk into these with biases. The question is, can you put those biases aside and be fair in this case,” he said. Jury selection will end after 14 people are picked — 12 jurors who will deliberate the case and two alternates who won’t be part of deliberations unless needed. The jurors will be escorted to the courthouse daily and sequestered during deliberations. Their names will be kept confidential until further order of the court. The number of seats in the courtroom has been limited to maintain social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and seats for jurors have been spaced out. Like others in the courtroom, jurors will be required to wear masks. The earliest opening statements will begin is March 29. - Amy Forliti, Steve Karnowski and Mohamed Ibrahim

MORGAN COUNTY — A man convicted in the murder of an Indiana University student back in 2000 is set to be released from prison because he didn't have proper representation during the trial. John Myers was convicted in the murder of Jill Behrman, 19, in Morgan County in October, 2006, following a 12-day jury trial. He was sentenced to 65 years in prison. Behrman disappeared in May 2000 after leaving her Bloomington home to go for a bike ride. Her remains were found three years later. In the ruling handed down Monday by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, the court ruled that Myers received "ineffective assistance of counsel at trial in violation of his Sixth Amendment rights." The ruling means Myers must be released from prison unless the Morgan County Prosecutor's Office decides to retry him within 120 days. WRTV has reached out to the prosecutor's office for comment. The ruling states that Myers' attorney made false statements to the jury during opening arguments, which that attorney later admitted to in a disciplinary hearing. The ruling also claims that Myers' attorney failed to object to "two significant categories of evidence that should not have been presented to the jury." "In the end, these serious errors all but destroyed the defense that trial counsel presented to the jury and tainted the entire trial," the ruling read. According to the ruling, Myers named 13 ways he says his attorney failed him during trial, although the courts ruled that only three of the reasons given by Myers were deficient: "he made two false statements to the jury during opening, he failed to object to inadmissible bloodhound evidence, and he failed to object to evidence that Ms. Behrman was raped before she was murdered." Jill Behrman's mother, Marilyn, tells WRTV she will work with the Morgan County prosecutor to determine what the best decision for her and her family is, moving forward. "I will take this one day, one moment at a time. I will go whoever this leads and deal with it. I am disappointed with this ruling, but this is out of my control," Marilyn Behrman said. "I will count on Morgan County Prosecutor, Steve Sonnega, to help guide me through this process, whether that be an appeal leading to a new trial or not. I am more concerned with the emotional toll this will take on family and friends.” This story was originally published by Katie Cox at WRTV.

Malaysia arrests 8 suspected militants, 7 of them foreigners KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — Malaysian police said Saturday that eight suspected militants, including seven foreigners, have been arrested for allegedly spreading religious extremism that could threaten national security and fan terrorism in the region. National police chief Mohamad Fuzi Harun said the suspects are connected with an Islamic religious school in Yemen that promotes the Salafi Jihadi teachings, which permit the killings of non-Muslims as well as Muslims who don't follow their ways and denounce democracy as un-Islamic. He said the foreigners, aged between 24 and 38, include five people from a country in Europe, one from the Americas and one from the Middle East. Fuzi said the Sept. 24 arrests came after police received intelligence about attempts by a Yemen-based terror group to set up a school in Southeast Asia to promote the Salafi Jihadi ideology, which is shared by groups including the Islamic State. He said all eight are linked to an Islamic learning center in northern Perlis state that has ties with the Yemen school, but didn't give details of the Malaysian center. He said initial investigations showed the eight rejected democracy and have extreme beliefs. Six of them, students of the Perlis center, were detained in the state and believed to have ties with either the Islamic State terror group or extremist cells in their country, Fuzi said. The Middle Eastern man, a former teacher at the Perlis center, was picked up in Kuala Lumpur for conducting unlawful Islamic classes to spread Salafi Jihadi teachings, he said. A Malaysian businessman, a former student of the Perlis center who wants to promote Islamic rule in Malaysia, was held in southern Johor state, he said. Fuzi said this wasn't the first time that suspected militants have tried to spread Salafi Jihadi teachings in Malaysia. In 1985, two leaders of the Jemaah Islamiyah radical group set up schools in two Malaysian states to promote the Salafi Jihadi ideology and recruit new members but authorities managed to put a stop to it, he said. Malaysia has been battling to curb the influence of militant cells linked to the Islamic State. Many of its citizens have made their way to the Middle East to fight with the Islamic State group in recent years, often passing through Turkey. Hundreds of people suspected of having ties to IS have been detained in Malaysia in the past few years.

Man Charged for Armed Robbery of Cleveland Heights Store A federal grand jury returned a two-count indictment charging Willie L. Monroe, 32, of Cleveland, with one count of interference with commerce by means of robbery and one count of using and carrying a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence. The indictment alleges that Monroe, and other unknown individuals, attempted to rob a Family Dollar store in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, on September 23, 2014. It further alleges that Monroe and the other robbers carried and brandished a firearm during the incident. If convicted, the defendant’s sentence will be determined by the Court after review of factors unique to this case, including the defendant’s prior criminal record, if any, the defendant’s role in the offense, and the characteristics of the violation. In all cases, the sentence will not exceed the statutory maximum and in most cases the sentence will be less than the maximum. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney M. Kendra Klump following an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Cleveland Division, and the Cleveland Heights Police Department. An indictment is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt. A defendant is entitled to a fair trial in which it will be the government’s burden to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

Man Charged with Hate Crime for Using Stun Cane During Racially-Motivated Assault of Neighbor in Utah SALT LAKE CITY – A federal grand jury in Salt Lake City returned an indictment charging Mark Porter, age 58, a former resident of Draper, Utah, with using force and the threat of force to injure, intimidate, and interfere with an African-American man because of his race after moving in nearby. The indictment, returned by the grand jury Wednesday, was unsealed Friday morning. Announcing the charges Friday are John Gore, Acting Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division; John W. Huber, United States Attorney for the District of Utah; and Eric Barnhart, Special Agent in Charge for the Salt Lake City Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The indictment alleges that Mark Porter shouted racial slurs at the victim and his 7-year-old son, and then struck the victim with a stun cane. The indictment further alleges that the stun cane is a dangerous weapon, and that the victim suffered bodily injury. An indictment is merely an allegation, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty. If convicted on the civil rights charge, Porter faces a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. He was arrested on the charge in Arizona and will have an appearance in federal court in Arizona. The case is being investigated by the FBI’s Salt Lake City Field Office. Assistant U.S. Attorney J. Drew Yeates of the United States Attorney’s Office and Trial Attorney Rose E. Gibson of the Civil Rights Division’s Criminal Section are prosecuting the case.

Man accused in hit-and-run killing of off-duty Milwaukee police officer was previously sued by city The man accused of killing an off-duty Milwaukee police officer in a drunken driving crash had been sued by the city two weeks earlier for property damage caused by negligent driving, according to court documents. The lawsuit sought $2,447.51 for damage caused to a light pole Dante James crashed into while "negligently operating a vehicle" at North 68th and Congress streets in 2017. The city had previously sued James for $1,378 for damage caused when he crashed a stolen vehicle into a light pole at North 68th Street and West Thurston Avenue. That case was dismissed, but the insurance company for the owner of the stolen vehicle settled a lawsuit against James for $16,000. James is being held in the County Jail on $100,000 bail on charges of homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle, hit-and-run involving death and knowingly operating while revoked in the June 18 death of off-duty Milwaukee police officer Kou Her. James is accused of running a red light at North 60th Street and West Capitol Drive, striking Her's vehicle as he drove home from a shift at the District 4 police station.

Man charged with kidnapping ST. GEORGE – Police have charged a man with kidnapping after he allegedly took his ex-wife’s son in an apparent attempt to convince her to rethink a protective order. Sgt. Sam Despain, St. George Police public information officer, said the boy wasn’t Taualai Him Taueetia’s child and was never in any danger, but Taueetia did have the idea of using the woman’s son as leverage. “He violated the protection order and took the boy, calling his ex-wife,” Despain said. Despain said Taueetia took the boy to LaVerkin, where he was arrested by LaVerkin Police Department officers. “This is not a case of an unknown assailant snatching a kid,” Despain said. “The parties knew each other.” Taueetia was arrested Saturday on charges of kidnapping a child and three counts violating a protective order.

Martha Stewart asked on Wednesday for a new trial, saying one of the jurors who convicted her lied about a past arrest on assault charges. Stewart lawyer Robert Morvillo said in papers filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan, N.Y., that he would have sought to strike juror Chappell Hartridge had he known about the prior incidents. "These facts, in and of themselves, establish that Ms. Stewart is entitled to a new trial," Morvillo wrote. The papers also accused Hartridge of seeking money for post-trial interviews. On the day of the guilty verdict, the juror said publicly he believed the decision was "a victory for the little guys." Stewart was convicted March 5 of lying to federal investigators about her sale of 3,298 shares of ImClone Systems stock on Dec. 27, 2001, just before it plunged on a negative government report. She is to be sentenced June 17. Legal experts believe she will receive a sentence of 10 to 16 months in prison for the four guilty counts -- obstructing justice, conspiracy and two counts of making false statements. People are also reading… The Stewart filing said Hartridge was arrested in 1997 after a woman with whom he was living filed an assault complaint. The filing also said Hartridge lied on his jury questionnaire by omitting the fact that he has been sued at least three times. It said he also lied by not disclosing that he was once accused of stealing from a Little League group.

Maryland Man Pleads Guilty to Fraudulent Scheme to Solicit Millions of Dollars in Contributions to Scam-Pacs A Maryland political consultant pleaded guilty today to wire fraud as a result of his fraudulent scheme to solicit millions of dollars in political contributions through several scam-PACs that he founded and advertised as supporting candidates for office and other political causes. Kelley Rogers, 55, of Annapolis, Maryland, pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud before U.S. District Judge Liam O’Grady of the Eastern District of Virginia. A sentencing hearing is scheduled for Jan. 17, 2020, before Judge O’Grady. “Rogers defrauded countless citizens across the country who sought to participate in the political process, and instead used the money to benefit himself and to perpetuate his fraudulent scheme,” said Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division. “Today’s guilty plea shows that the Department of Justice is committed to investigating and prosecuting those who undermine the integrity of our democratic institutions, including those who commit fraud to line their own pockets along the way.” “Rogers preyed upon his victims political beliefs with the intent of enriching his companies, his business partners, and himself,” said U.S. Attorney G. Zachary Terwilliger for the Eastern District of Virginia. “Individuals like Rogers, who engage in sophisticated fraud schemes will be held accountable for their actions. We have a long history of investigating and prosecuting fraud cases here in the Eastern District, and we remain committed to working closely with our law enforcement partners to ensure that those who choose to engage in fraud activity are held accountable and brought to justice.” “Rogers swindled millions of dollars from individuals attempting to participate in our democratic process,” said Assistant Director in Charge Timothy R. Slater of the FBI’s Washington Field Office. “Instead of using donations to provide assistance and support to military veterans, as he advertised, Rogers used the money to benefit himself and his associates. I commend the dedication and hard work of our FBI agents and analysts who investigated this egregious fraud against innocent U.S. citizens.” According to admissions Rogers made in connection with his guilty plea, from August 2012 through 2018, in the Eastern District of Virginia and elsewhere, the defendant operated multiple PACs, including Conservative StrikeForce (CSF), Conservative Majority Fund, and Tea Party Majority Fund. In that role, the defendant engaged vendors to send e-mail solicitations and make telemarketing phone calls to prospective donors seeking political contributions to his PACs. Rogers approved the text and other content of all solicitations, and determined how CSF spent the contributions individual donors gave in response to the solicitations. During the course of his scheme, Rogers solicited contributions from the general public for his PACs based on materially false and fraudulent pretenses, representations, and promises. For example, in or around 2013, Rogers, working with an email vendor, represented through CSF that money contributed by donors would be used to support the campaigns of a candidate for Governor and a candidate for Attorney General of Virginia through, among other things, get-out-the-vote efforts and the hiring of attorneys to ensure the integrity of the elections. In or around 2014, Rogers represented that donations to the PAC would be spent on assistance and support for military veterans. In truth and in fact, the defendant never intended to spend, and never actually spent, any of the money raised by Rogers’ PACs on get-out-the-vote efforts or lawyers to protect the integrity of the 2013 Virginia and Attorney General elections, or on assistance and support for military veterans. Instead, the defendant spent nearly all of the money raised from donors to benefit himself, his associates, and his PACs, including by pouring the majority of donor money into the solicitation of more donations. In addition to the misrepresentations that Rogers made to donors, Rogers and others fraudulently billed his PACs for services that were not performed, thereby misappropriating donor money that had been contributed to the PACs by individuals across the country. Rogers and his associates also made false statements to the Federal Election Commission about how they were spending PAC money. Finally, Rogers admitted that he and several others also participated in a scheme to use conduits (“straw donors”) to make contributions to a candidate running to represent a district in the United States House of Representatives that exceeded the limits placed on individual campaign contributions under federal law. As part of his guilty plea, Rogers agreed to pay $491,299.00 in restitution to victims of his fraud scheme, as well as a forfeiture money judgment in the amount of $208,954.00. The FBI’s Washington Field Office is investigating the case. Trial Attorneys John Taddei and Bill Gullotta of the Criminal Division’s Public Integrity Section and Assistant U.S. Attorney Kimberly Pedersen of the Eastern District of Virginia are prosecuting the case. Former PIN attorney Molly Gaston provided significant assistance in the case.

Maryland politics is like a badly dubbed movie where actors' mouths move out of sync with the sound. Big debates are happening in the nation about big issues, including what it means to be an American and how to pay for our way of life. President Barack Obama ignited a firestorm in the media and in homes around the country last month when he said, "you didn't build that," giving credit to government for entrepreneurs' success. Voters in San Diego and San Jose, Calif. dramatically slashed previously sacrosanct government employee pensions by overwhelming margins in June to help keep their cities solvent. Thousands lined up last week at Chick-fil-As around the nation to show appreciation for a company some prominent national politicians said they wanted to block from their cities because its founder believes in traditional marriage. And Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's selection of Rep. Paul Ryan as a vice presidential running mate last week means the economy, national debt and the future of entitlement programs will be at the center of political debate in the remaining time before the election. But you wouldn't know it living here. Gov.Martin O'Malleyis still blaming former PresidentGeorge W. Bushfor the Great Recession on national television like a wind-up toy. And he just called legislators into a special session — supposedly a prerogative reserved for emergencies — to debate whether to expand gambling. And while legislators are at it, they will also debate how to handle liability for pit bull attacks and other issues of alleged consummate importance to the future of Maryland. It is as if the governor and legislators are busy planning a bachelor party for a wedding that has been called off. This is a state that thousands leave each year. Thousands more flee high-tax, high-regulation counties including Baltimore City and Montgomery County for more hospitable places like Frederick, Carroll, and Harford Counties. It's a state that has been losing jobs for 4 months in a row despite the previously impenetrable backstop of the federal government. And this is a state whose pension system — which the Pew Center on the States ranks as one of the worst-funded in the nation — earned a .36 percent return over the past year, and 5 percent over the past decade while predicting an annual 7.75 percent return. In fact, the pension system board is so confident in its projections, members voted in July to affirm that rate of return despite all evidence it is as impossible to achieve as disgraced financier Bernie Madoff's fake perpetual profits. Those are issues worthy of a special session, not least because a growing number of cities around the country are considering bankruptcy to escape overwhelming public employee pension burdens. Three in California alone have declared bankruptcy since late June. And high-tax states including California and New York are hemorrhaging people just when they need new jobs and the taxes generated by them to dig them out of chronic deficits. Governor O'Malley denies these are problems. Instead, he blames the Bureau of Labor Statistics for faulty jobs numbers. "With all our economic indicators demonstrating positive trends, we would not be surprised if the Bureau of Labor Statistics once again significantly revises these preliminary numbers," he said in a July news release. He also personally attacked Larry Hogan of Change Maryland for publishing federal data showing people migrating out of Maryland, but he did not address why people are leaving. Ridiculing the messenger may be good politics. But it will not improve the job prospects for those living in a state still struggling to return to pre-recession employment. And while gambling may increase employment slightly in Maryland, it will not improve state finances unless the governor and legislators stop promising to spend more than the tax base can support. Until then, expanded gambling is just one more false messiah waiting to be proven wrong by next year's budget. Marta H.

Massillon Man Accused Of Embezzling $442,000 From Clients A criminal information was charging a Massillon man with bank embezzlement and false returns related to a scheme in which he defrauded four clients out of $442,072, said Steven M. Dettelbach, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Ohio. The information alleges that David Lee Cheviron, 61,was a financial consultant at First Merit Bank, Huntington Bank, and JP Morgan Chase Bank between 2006 and 2010, during which time he embezzled the money from the clients. Cheviron converted the money for his own personal use. Cheviron also failed to report the funds he received from the schemes on his federal tax returns, according to the information. If convicted, the defendant’s sentence will be determined by the court after review of factors unique to this case, including the defendant’s prior criminal record, if any, his role in the offense, and the characteristics of the violation. In all cases the sentences will not exceed the statutory maximum and in most cases it will be less than the maximum. This case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Vasile C.

Medical mistakes, not murder, killed his 41-year-old girlfriend, a North Little Rock man accused of beating the woman to death told a Pulaski County jury on Wednesday. Parnell May, 46, is charged with capital murder, and prosecutors are seeking a life sentence in the trial before Pulaski County Circuit Judge Leon Johnson. The proceedings, scheduled to run until Friday, resume at 9:30 a.m. today at the county courthouse, the first murder trial since the pandemic began last year. Ann Marie Mireles' "death was not a homicide," May told jurors in his opening statement. "[Mireles] did not die by any injuries. [Her] death was the sole province of Mother Nature." Deputy prosecutor Melissa Brown said in her opening that May had subjected the woman to a "severe and prolonged beating" that left Mireles with more injuries than doctors could count. Brown said he used a metal pipe and a wooden stick found in the couple's home that were marked with Mireles' blood. "Ann Mireles' injuries tell the story of what the defendant did to her," Brown said. Arrested the day after Mireles' December 2016 death, May had the woman's blood on his clothes and boots when sheriff's deputies arrested him, Brown said. Her blood was even found on the money May had in his pocket, the prosecutor said. May also had Mireles' phone with him, and investigators found pictures of the woman lying on the floor of the home that were taken around the last time authorities know for sure Mireles was alive, Brown said. A neighbor found Mireles unconscious, heavily bruised and not breathing on the steps of the Vaughn Road home she shared with May. Paramedics rushed her to the hospital where she was pronounced dead. May said the rescuers' efforts to resuscitate Mireles, including chest compressions, caused her death, inflicting tremendous liver damage among other injuries. "This is the absolute truth," May said. "There is exculpatory evidence that proves Parnell May is innocent." May told jurors he and Mireles had been in a fight the night before while both were drinking heavily but denied playing any role in her death. May, a fifth-grade drop-out, was addressing the jurors himself because he has insisted on acting as his own lawyer for most of the proceedings. He's occasionally accepted offers of legal representation and advice, only to later reject them. He's being allowed to represent himself on the condition that he accepts having a stand-by attorney, Lee Short, who will take over his defense if May becomes disruptive. This is May's second trial. His first, in January 2018, was marked by May's continuous angry outbursts, rambling diatribes and repeated arguments with witnesses, which resulted in the judge prematurely ending that trial. Bailiffs had to pull the shouting defendant from the courtroom then as shocked jurors, some in tears, were escorted out of the courtroom. A five-time felon with a history of violence, May was convicted of manslaughter in Louisiana for fatally stabbing his older sister's boyfriend in April 1991 in Opelousas when May was 15.

Memphis Operator, LLC d/b/a Spring Gate Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center will pay $500,000 to the United States and the State of Tennessee for services rendered to residents of Spring Gate that were materially substandard and worthless Memphis, TN – Memphis Operator, LLC d/b/a Spring Gate Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center will pay $500,000 to the United States and the State of Tennessee to resolve allegations of false claims to Medicare and Tenncare for services rendered to residents of Spring Gate that were materially substandard, worthless and were provided in violation of certain essential requirements that the United States expects skilled nursing facilities to meet. The Complaint alleged that from 2012 to 2015, Spring Gate provided substandard and worthless nursing home services to residents. Under federal and state law, Medicare and Tenncare will not pay for services deemed to be so deficient that they are essentially worthless. The allegations resolved in this settlement were first raised in a lawsuit filed against Spring Gate under the qui tam provisions of the False Claims Act, which permits parties to sue on behalf of the government for the submission of false claims and share in the recovery. The False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. §§ 3729-3733, provides the United States with a cause of action against any person or entity that knowingly presents, or causes to be presented, a false or fraudulent claim for payment or approval. The case was captioned United States of America and the State of Tennessee ex rel. Chris Godwin v. Memphis Operator, LLC (d/b/a Spring Gate Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center). Vericare Management, Inc. and PharMerica Corporation, No. 2:15-cv-2090 (W.D.Tenn.). During the investigation of this matter, Spring Gate cooperated with the United States and the State of Tennessee in bringing this matter to a resolution. "Residents of nursing homes are some of our most vulnerable citizens. When nursing homes break the law by defrauding the government for substandard or worthless services we will use our resources to combat this fraud and hold them accountable," said D. Michael Dunavant, United States Attorney for the Western District of Tennessee. "Protecting the health and safety of Medicare patients is one of our primary concerns," said Derrick L. Jackson, Special Agent in Charge at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General in Atlanta. "Nursing facilities that fail to meet minimum quality standards can expect to pay a heavy price for neglecting their residents." In addition to the $500,000 settlement, Spring Gate entered into a Corporate Integrity Agreement with the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Inspector General intended to deter future wrongful conduct. This investigation was conducted by the United States Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Inspector General, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation and the Tennessee State Attorney General’s Office. Assistant United States Attorneys Stuart J. Canale and Matt Waldrop and Steve Jobe, Senior Counsel for the Tennessee Attorney General prosecuted this case on the government’s behalf.

Mexican National Sentenced to 18 Months in Prison for Attempting to Breach Cockpit then Jumping from Departing Airplane at LAX LOS ANGELES – A Mexican national was sentenced today to 18 months in federal prison for attempting to breach the cockpit of a commercial airliner taxiing at Los Angeles International Airport, assaulting a flight attendant who tried to stop him, then opening the exit door and jumping out of the aircraft. Luis Armando Victoria Dominguez, 34, of La Paz, Mexico, was sentenced by United States District Judge Dolly M. Gee, who also ordered him to pay $20,132 in restitution. Dominguez pleaded guilty in October 2021 to one count of interference with flight crew members and flight attendant. On June 25, 2021, Dominguez was a passenger on United Airlines flight 5365, operated by SkyWest Airlines, that was scheduled to fly from Los Angeles to Salt Lake City. Soon after the plane pushed back from the gate, Dominguez “sprinted” to the front of the aircraft past a seated flight attendant and “began banging on the cockpit door and manipulating the locked doorknob,” according to an FBI affidavit that was filed with a criminal complaint in this case. When he failed to gain entry to the cockpit, Dominguez pushed past the flight attendant and went to the emergency exit on the right side of the plane, where he managed to partially open the door, causing the emergency slide to partially deploy, the affidavit states. While a nearby passenger attempted to restrain him, Dominguez managed to get away and jump from the aircraft, missing the emergency slide. “Once…Dominguez landed on the tarmac, he began crawling away from the aircraft. His right leg appeared broken,” the affidavit states. “[Dominguez] assaulted a flight attendant and endangered the lives of countless others when he attempted to breach the cockpit of the plane and then partially deployed a slide while the plane was taxiing, causing the pilot to immediately shut off the engine to avoid having the slide sucked into the engine,” prosecutors wrote in a sentencing memorandum. “[Dominguez’s] unruly conduct damaged the plane, taking it out of commission for four days.” The FBI investigated this matter and received substantial assistance from the Los Angeles Airport Police Department. Assistant United States Attorney Lyndsi C. Allsop of the General Crimes Section prosecuted this case.

Mexico fireworks blast 'like a plane crash' Tultepec (Mexico) (AFP) - One moment, the afternoon sky was clear. The next, it was echoing with the crack and thunder of exploding fireworks, filled with multicolored smoke. The apocalyptic scene tearing through the fireworks market in the Mexico City suburb of Tultepec struck terror into witnesses' hearts. "The earth moved," said Angelica Coss, a 25-year-old resident who lives just streets away from the market. "It felt like a plane had crashed, like bombs were being dropped." "I went up to the roof of my place and others were already there and we saw the market was blowing up. And all the smoke started to cover us," she told AFP. Inside the San Pablito market itself -- Mexico's biggest with 300 stands selling tons of pyrotechnics -- horror was unfolding. "You just heard the blast. And everything started to be on fire. People came running out on fire," Walter Garduno said. "People were alight -- children," he added before trailing off. - Smoldering wasteland - Pops and thuds of multiple fireworks went off, sending flaming rockets into a busy crowd that had been shopping for Christmas and New Year's festivities. The devastation reduced the market to a smoldering wasteland of ash, charred metal and concrete. It was another cruel blow to San Pablito, which had already suffered runaway conflagrations in 2005 and 2006. Its vendors -- who operated with licenses issued by the defense ministry -- had boasted theirs was Latin America's safest fireworks fair. But that claim was proven wrong when fireworks somewhere in the market ignited, setting off the catastrophic chain reaction that consumed the place within minutes. First responders were initially stymied by the continuous blasts going off in different parts of the market, spread over four hectares (10 acres) next to a traffic intersection. The smoke choked them as they pulled out dozens of wounded people, most of them suffering burns. One of the first to dive into the disaster zone was Victor Hugo Samantes, whose relatives worked in some of the market stalls. They all managed to escape. "It's incredible because you're used to seeing everything happening, people working, manning their stalls," he said, a mask covering his mouth. "And now, to see it like this..." The blackened expanse that used to be the San Pablito market now contained hundreds of police and emergency workers. The authorities have started an investigation.

https://abcnews.go.com/US/michelle-obama-thought-husband-win-bruising-campaign-white/story?id=59084181.txt.gz
Michelle Obama shared with "Good Morning America" co-anchor Robin Roberts some key advice she'd give her pre-White House self, if she had the chance, as the two sat down to discuss her memoir, "Becoming." "You know the hard parts were the things that I expected," Michelle Obama told Roberts in the exclusive interview. "That it was gonna be hard, you know? Being the first black anything is gonna be hard." "So much of this country lives in isolation and we just don't know each other. ... There were people who didn't know what a black woman was and sounded like. And, so I knew that was gonna be a challenge, that I'd have to earn my grace -- and I experienced that on the campaign trail," she said. It was the campaign trail that tested her self-esteem. In the summer of 2004, Barack Obama was already a rising star when he was asked to speak at the Democratic National Convention. By 2008, after a meteoric rise to fame, the senator announced his candidacy for president. Michelle Obama said that although she'd given him her blessing to run, she didn't think he'd win. And, when she saw him on the cover of Time magazine in October 2006 with the headline, "Why Barack Obama could be the next president," she looked away. She didn't even want to see it. "I think I did what a lot of black folks were doin'," she told Roberts. "We were afraid to hope because it's hard to believe that the country that oppressed you could one day be led by you, you know?" "I mean, my grandparents, you know, lived through segregation," she continued. "My grandfather, his grandfather was a slave, you know? So this, these memories were real. And they didn't think the country was ready. And, and so my attitude was a reflection of that skepticism." On the campaign trail, she was insulted and her patriotism was questioned. "I write about those, you know, those nasty times where people, you know, called me Barack's 'baby mama,' you know? Accused me of not loving my country. ... Told me I was angry," she said. And, I was, like, 'This isn't me. Wait, wait, people. This isn't who I am.'" Obama told Roberts that the criticism she endured during her husband's campaign hurt. "I don't think we do each other a service by pretending like hurtful things don't hurt," she told Roberts. "And, that's what I've come to. ... I need to own that hurt. I need to talk about it. I need to put it out there for myself so that I can heal from it. But at the time, oh gosh, you know? I wasn't gonna allow myself to feel victimized from it because there was no time to hurt in that role." In her memoir, "Becoming," which is out on Tuesday, Michelle Obama writes that she will "never forgive" President Donald Trump for challenging the legitimacy of her husband's birth certificate. In 2011, Donald Trump and other so-called "birthers" were questioning whether Barack Obama was a U.S. citizen. In her memoir, Michelle Obama described their actions as "crazy and mean-spirited. ... Its underlying bigotry and xenophobia hardly concealed. But it was also dangerous, deliberately meant to stir up the wingnuts and kooks." In audio from the book obtained exclusively by ABC News, Michelle Obama wonders: "What if someone with an unstable mind loaded a gun and drove to Washington? What if that person went looking for our girls? Donald Trump, with his loud and reckless innuendos, was putting my family’s safety at risk. And for this, I’d never forgive him." President Trump responded Friday to Michelle Obama's comments about him in her book, pointing the finger at former President Barack Obama. "She got paid a lot of money to write a book and they always expect a little controversy," Trump told reporters. "I'll give you a little controversy back, I'll never forgive [President Barack Obama] for what he did to our U.S. military. It was depleted, and I had to fix it." "What he did to our military made this country very unsafe for you and you and you," Trump said. Michelle Obama also writes about her reaction to Trump being elected president and her thoughts while she was watching his inauguration, writing, “I will always wonder about what led so many women, in particular, to reject an exceptionally qualified female candidate and instead choose a misogynist as their president.” "It's amazing to me that we still have to tell people about the importance of voting," Obama told Roberts.

Middlesex County Man Charged with Defrauding the United States through Filing of False Claims TRENTON, N.J. – A Middlesex County, New Jersey, man was arrested today for his role in a scheme to defraud the IRS by making false claims for income tax refunds and conspiracy, U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito announced. Luis Crespo, 42, of Sayreville, New Jersey is scheduled to appear by this afternoon by video conference before U.S. Magistrate Judge Zahid N. Quraishi in connection with an indictment, unsealed today, that charges Crespo with conspiracy to defraud the United States with respect to claims and with filing false, fictitious and fraudulent claims. According to documents filed in this case and statements made in court: Crespo was allegedly part of a conspiracy led by Michael Watsey, who orchestrated a scheme to file false claims or cause the filing of false claims, namely the filing of 16 false tax returns in the years 2014 through 2017. Watsey created false Forms W2-G, which showed significant gambling winnings and Federal tax withheld. Participants in this scheme were Watsey, his family members, Crespo and other associates. Watsey filed or caused the filing of 16 false tax returns with false Forms W2-G, requesting a total of $3.9 million in false federal tax refunds with a total of $1.29 million actually being received. Crespo used false Forms W2-G created by Watsey in the filing of his 2016 and 2017 false tax returns. Those returns requested a total of $508,787 in false federal tax refunds with a total of $510,668 actually being paid by the IRS. Watsey pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Anne E. Thompson on Jan. 3, 2020, and is scheduled to be sentenced Dec. 15, 2020. The conspiracy count carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine, or twice the gross gain or loss from the offense. The false, fictitious or fraudulent claims counts each carry a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine, or twice the gross gain or loss from the offense. U.S. Attorney Carpenito credited special agents of the IRS, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Michael Montanez, with the investigation leading to the charges and arrest. The government is represented by Senior Trial Counsel Jason M. Richardson of the U.S. Attorney=s Office Criminal Division in Camden. The charges and allegations contained in the indictment are merely accusations, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

Minnesota Resident Sentenced to 170 Months in Prison for Distribution of Child Pornography DAVENPORT, Iowa – On November 7, 2017, United States District Court Judge Rebecca Goodgame Ebinger sentenced Michael W. Kennedy, a.k.a. Ian Curtis, 49, of Monticello, Minnesota, to 170 months in prison for distribution of visual depiction of minors engaging in sexually explicit conduct, announced United States Attorney Marc Krickbaum. Kennedy was also ordered to serve 10 years of supervised release following his imprisonment, pay $100 to the Crime Victims’ Fund, and comply with the Sex Offender Registry Requirements upon release. On May 18, 2017, Kennedy pled guilty to the charges, which arose from an investigation initiated by the University of Iowa Police Department. As stated in the plea agreement, Kennedy was a patient at the University of Iowa Hospital and Clinic in Iowa City. While there, hospital staff thought Kennedy was taking photographs of female staff with his tablet, which is against written hospital policy. The staff confiscated his electronic devices and saw what appeared to be multiple images of child pornography. A forensic examination was conducted which showed that Kennedy was posing as a young male and trading child pornography videos with others through multiple social media applications on his tablet while he was a hospital patient. This matter was investigated by University of Iowa Police Department, National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, and the Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Police Department. This case was prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa. -END- Learn more about this release by calling Kevin E.

Monday, March 1, 2010 | 7:09 p.m. Sun coverage Washington state announced Monday it would intervene in the federal government's decision to withdraw its license application for a Nevada nuclear waste repository. The move marks the latest show of the state's angst over the Obama administration's decision to abandon the Yucca Mountain project as an option for permanently storing high-level radioactive waste. Waste and spent nuclear fuel from south-central Washington's Tri-Cities, site of the highly contaminated Hanford nuclear reservation and the Northwest's only commercial nuclear plant, had long been intended to go to Yucca Mountain. The federal government has said the proposed desert mountain repository 90 miles from Las Vegas is no longer considered an option for radioactive waste storage. It has a motion pending to withdraw its license application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission "with prejudice." That means it would be permanently removed from consideration as the nation's radioactive waste repository. Washington Attorney General Rob McKenna said he remains deeply disturbed by the federal government's departure from a repository plan that dates back to the early 1980s. "My office continues to develop a legal strategy that it believes will provide the greatest benefit to the people of Washington -- especially those in the Tri-Cities who remain concerned about the permanent disposal of the nuclear waste currently stored and awaiting processing there," McKenna said in a statement. McKenna's office notified parties in the case Monday of its intent to intervene and plans to file its formal petition later this week. Karina Shagren, spokeswoman for Gov. Chris Gregoire, said the governor supports the decision. "Given that Hanford is in Washington, she has concerns about permanent storage and thinks at this point in time no option should permanently be removed from the table," Shagren said. The federal government created Hanford in the 1940s as part of the top-secret Manhattan Project to build the atomic bomb. Today, it is the nation's most contaminated nuclear site. Environmental cleanup plans call for disposal of Hanford's spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste in a geologic repository, such as Yucca Mountain. Last week, three civic leaders in the Tri-Cities filed a federal lawsuit against the Energy Department, saying its decision to abandon Yucca Mountain violates the Nuclear Waste Policy Act. On Friday, a federal court awarded the operator of the Northwest's only commercial nuclear plant nearly $56.9 million in damages from the Energy Department. The U.S. Court of Federal Claims in 2006 already had determined that the agency was in breach of contract with Energy Northwest for failing to begin accepting used nuclear fuel from its Columbia Generating Station in Richland. Energy Northwest is a public power consortium, comprised of 28 public utility districts and five city utilities, that provides low-cost power for its members. Ratepayers receiving nuclear energy from Energy Northwest pay a per-kilowatt-hour fee to the Energy Department for construction and operation of the national nuclear waste repository. Energy Northwest said Monday that Northwest ratepayers have paid about $290 million into the fund since Columbia Generating Station began commercial operation in 1984. In 2001, with Yucca Mountain not an option, the utility built its own used fuel storage area at the plant. Energy Northwest then filed suit in 2004, seeking nearly $56.9 million in damages it said would recoup those costs. The Energy Department has 60 days to file an appeal. Federal courts already have found the Energy Department in breach of contract for not taking ownership of the spent fuel now being stored at nuclear reactors, as dictated by law. According to industry figures, future liabilities could top $11 billion.
