DALLAS (AP) — Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton ran out of his house and jumped into a truck driven by his wife, a state senator, to avoid being served a subpoena to testify Tuesday in an abortion access case, according to court documents. A process server wrote in an affidavit that he was attempting to deliver the federal court subpoena Monday at Paxton's home and ultimately had to leave the document on the ground. He said the Republican avoided him for more than an hour from inside his house, then dashed toward the truck and the couple drove off. Paxton, who is facing a variety of legal troubles as he seeks to win a third term in November, said he avoided the server out of safety concerns and said the news media should be ashamed for reporting on what happened. “It’s clear that the media wants to drum up another controversy involving my work as Attorney General, so they’re attacking me for having the audacity to avoid a stranger lingering outside my home and showing concern … [Read more...] about Records: Texas attorney general fled home to avoid subpoena

Alarming social media posts warning of a Kansas City serial killer are untrue, according to police. In a video that went viral on TikTok and other platforms, a man claimed that four Black girls were murdered and three others reported missing over the past week in Kansas City, Missouri. The video was posted by The Kansas City Defender, a nonprofit media platform focused on Black representation. Although the group has since removed the video, re-posts continue to circulate on social media. Another post on Twitter , which amassed over 200,000 likes before it was removed, repeated these alleged crimes and accused the news media of silence. "There's a serial killer in Kansas City targeting young Black girls and nobody is reporting on it," said the tweet. "[Four] victims in the past week and [three] more girls reported missing.

This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 4 WATERBURY, Conn. (AP) — Ian Hockley testified Tuesday that he was ridiculed online as a “party boy” and an actor after posting a video of the memorial service for his 6-year-old son, who was killed in the 2012 Sandy Hook school massacre. Hockley is the latest family member of the 26 victims of the shooting to testify at the defamation trial of Alex Jones, where a jury is deciding how much the conspiracy theorist must pay for spreading the lie that the shooting was a hoax. Hockley, who lost his autistic son Dylan in the shooting, testified that he became the target of conspiracy theorists because he smiled during what he found as an uplifting memorial service. “That is what that video started to attract is people saying this must be fake,” he said. “'He's an actor. He's smiling. Oh, you're out of character,' all of those things started to appear until we took our video down.” … [Read more...] about Father testifies of pain inflicted by Sandy Hook deniers
