close Video Idaho murder victim’s attorney files to lift gag order Criminal defense attorney Phil Holloway says the judge should lift the gag order because the case is already widely publicized, and quieting those close to the case violates their free speech rights. A Florida teen charged in the grisly murder of a 13-year-old classmate, found dead near a pond with dozens of stab wounds, pleaded guilty to murder Monday. It would have been the first day of jury selection for his trial, court documents show, two years after an early court appearance where he allegedly mumbled about demons taking his soul. Tristyn Bailey, a cheerleader at Patriot Oaks Academy, was last seen on surveillance video walking with her killer, Aiden Fucci, on May 9, 2021 in St. Johns County. He also attended the school. An hour later, the same camera captured Fucci walking away alone.

Teen shark victim had worked on a project about staying safe in water
A teenager who was mauled to death by a shark in Australia on Saturday had previously been praised for a school project that aimed to protect swimmers against such attacks. Stella Berry, 16, from Perth, Western Australia, had been Jet-Skiing in the Swan River with her friends when she saw a pod of dolphins and decided to join them in the water, 7NEWS reported. It was then that the fatal attack took place. Berry suffered critical injuries and massive blood loss after what experts believe to have been an attack from a bull shark. Berry was not naïve to the risks involved in swimming in these waters. In 2017, she had been recognized by the local mayor for her design of a shark-free ocean pool at the popular Cottesloe Beach, in the Perth suburb. At 10 years old, the student at St Hilda's Anglican School for Girls worked with a classmate on the project. The aim was to solve a local engineering problem as there had been rumblings locally about the idea of an ocean pool at Cottesloe … [Read more...] about Teen shark victim had worked on a project about staying safe in water
Sotomayor Says Other Justices Buried ‘Heads in the Sand’ Over Abortion Ban
Justice Sonia Sotomayor has condemned the Supreme Court 's refusal to block a law in Texas banning abortions in almost all circumstances, accusing those who voted against the move of opting to "bury their heads in the sand." Sotomayor was one of four judges to write a dissent against the decision after the court voted 5-4 on Wednesday night to refuse to block the extremely restrictive abortion law in the state, which would prohibit the procedure if a " fetal heartbeat " is detected. This typically occurs after around six weeks in to a pregnancy and before most women are unaware that they are pregnant. "The Court's order is stunning," wrote Justice Sotomayor. "Presented with an application to enjoin a flagrantly unconstitutional law engineered to prohibit women from exercising their constitutional rights and evade judicial scrutiny, a majority of Justices have opted to bury their heads in the sand." "The Court has rewarded the State's effort to delay federal review of a … [Read more...] about Sotomayor Says Other Justices Buried ‘Heads in the Sand’ Over Abortion Ban
Assam: Families Point to ‘Erroneous’ Data in ID Cards Behind Child Marriage Arrests
As more and more young men find themselves behind bars with the Assam government continuing its crackdown on child marriage, their wives are running from pillar to post to find documents to prove they were not underage at the time of wedlock.

A total of 2,241 arrests have been made so far in the state, based on 4,074 FIRs, as part of the crackdown launched four days ago. An elderly resident of Bhuragaon in Morigaon district claimed that most of the child marriage cases were registered on the basis of data collected from local health workers, who keep track of pregnant women, lactating mothers and families with small children to ensure coverage of government schemes. “These health workers use Aadhaar card information, as this is the latest document in possession of the villagers. However, errors related to birth dates have been spotted in … [Read more...] about Assam: Families Point to ‘Erroneous’ Data in ID Cards Behind Child Marriage Arrests
