PHOENIX — A Maricopa County Superior Court judge accepted a plea agreement in a road rage case involving a woman who police say shot and killed a Chinese student at Arizona State University after rear-ending the student's car. Holly Davis fatally shot 19-year-old Yue Jiang of China on Jan. 18, 2016, while Jiang's boyfriend, Endong Chen, sat next to her, according to Tempe police. Davis was originally charged with first-degree murder, but the prosecutor and her attorney came to a plea deal of second-degree murder that would result in a mandatory 25-year prison sentence.

A Toyota automaker employee moves an engine at the Toyota engine assembly line in Huntsville, Alabama. Carlos Barria/Reuters Alabama, home to car brands such as Mercedes and Toyota, has become the fifth-largest state for auto manufacturing in the last two decades. Approximately 40,000 people currently work in Alabama's automotive industry, with plant-workers earning an average salary of $50,000. The state and local government have offered sizeable tax incentives in order to attract automakers, a move which has faced some criticism.  Back in January, President Donald Trump put the national spotlight on Alabama's manufacturing economy with a boast in his State of the Union address. "Toyota and Mazda are opening up a plant in Alabama — a big one — and we haven't seen this in a long time. It's all coming back," the president said, eliciting applause. He also said the US hasn't seen expanding auto plants in "decades." That's not true. And certainly not true … [Read more...] about How Alabama is becoming the auto capital of the South
