Fears Premier League 'could be reduced to 18 TEAMS amid FIFA's plans to restrict global top-flights to ease Club World Cup congestion - as stars threaten strikes' An expanded 32-team FIFA Club World Cup will be held in the US next summer Clubs fear league participations will be reduced to combat fixture congestion Sunday league, grassroots, pub football… how Pep’s influence has trickled down the pyramid - Listen to the It's All Kicking Off podcast There are reportedly fears that FIFA want to impose 18-team leagues around the world, including the Premier League, due to the expansion of the Club World Cup. The governing body - headed by president Gianni Infantino - announced plans to hold a 32-team tournament in the US next summer to determine the best club side in the world, with the likes of Manchester City, Real Madrid and Chelsea all due to take part. According to The Sun, clubs are worried that FIFA will try to combat this issue by reducing the number of teams in every league to 18, meaning each club would play 34 games instead of 38. One source said: 'We all think that this is the ultimate aim from Fifa, to find a way of making us drop to 18. There are reportedly fears that FIFA want to impose 18-team leagues around the world An 18-team Premier League would mean each club plays 34 games instead of the usual 38 'What you can put your money on is the working group saying there is too much domestic football, that we should all go down from 20 clubs to 18 and that the least impact on players comes from international matches. 'We wouldn't be shocked if they have already written their conclusions.' It comes after FIFA were threatened with legal action by player unions and world leagues if it does not move the expanded 2025 Club World Cup. Premier League and LaLiga chiefs have also have threatened to pull their teams out unless the revamped competition is rescheduled Last month Premier League chief executive Richard Masters declared that football is at a 'tipping point' with players being asked to play more games than ever before. 'It stands to reason if you overload the calendar and the players, at some point, something has to give,' said Masters. Richard Masters (left) and Javier Tebas (right) have concerns over the newly-expanded Club World Cup and are reportedly threatening to boycott the tournament altogether 'It is getting to a tipping point. The feedback we have from players is that there is too much football being played and there is constant expansion.' The Club World Cup will run from June 15 to July 13 2025 and take away some clubs' chance of recuperating in the off-season and preparing for the new Premier League campaign. If FIFA enforce the rule, the Bundesliga, Portuguese league, Belgian league among others will be unaffected as they already have 18 or less teams competing in their respective leagues.

Why Parramatta Eels star Mitchell Moses believes Nicho Hynes can guide NSW Blues to victory in Origin opener - 'will do the jersey proud' Star halfback Mitchell Moses backed Nicho Hynes to deliver for NSW Comes as the Cronulla Sharks playmaker, 27, is battling a calf injury Eels playmaker Moses looms as a replacement if Hynes doesn't perform Mitchell Moses says Nicho Hynes 'deserves the opportunity' to play halfback for the Blues, with the returning Eels star backing NSW to get the job done. The Parramatta No.7 is the incumbent Blues halfback - but was unavailable for selection for the series opener after he fractured his left foot in round three. Moses would have been the obvious choice to play with Panthers superstar Nathan Cleary out injured, but as hard as he pushed for an early return, it wasn't meant to be. Hynes will instead steer the side around the park at Accor Stadium, despite carrying his own calf issue. 'I hope they win. I think the team Madge [Blues coach Michael Maguire] has picked is unbelievable,' Moses said, with the Eels star likely to be considered for game two if NSW don't win on June 5. Mitchell Moses says Nicho Hynes 'deserves the opportunity' to play halfback for NSW in the Origin series opener on June 5 Hynes is battling a calf injury and has barely trained with the Blues in the lead up to Game One against the Maroons 'I've got to play well myself to be in the conversation, but I really hope they get the win. I wish them all the best. 'He's picked a great side and I think they'll get the job done. 'It's a big opportunity for him (Hynes). He won a Dally M a few years ago and is playing great footy, so he deserves the opportunity. 'He's going to go out there and do the jersey proud.' Moses also said he felt 'helpless' as he watched long term mentor Brad Arthur recently get sacked by the club's board. 'It was really hard to watch,' he said. 'I was helpless to see the coach [go] that I had pretty much since I came to the club....I had such a good relationship with him. 'He taught me a lot about footy, and I'm probably not the player I am today without him. 'It was pretty tough watching on the sidelines and not being able to help at all, and then to see what happened. 'That's footy I guess, I had to move on and we had to move on as a club.'

A man in Florida has been indicted on a second-degree murder charge in the 2009 killing of his uncle in New York City after authorities say DNA collected from a discarded fork linked him to the crime. Rosario Prestigiacomo, 64, was stabbed to death at his Queens home on Feb. 10, 2009, according to a news release from the Queens County District Attorney's Office. A neighbor heard a disturbance and called police, who found Prestigiacomo face down in a pool of blood. The investigation found that he had been stabbed 16 times in the face, neck, torso and extremities, and that he had blunt-force injuries as well. Blood swabs were collected from the location, according to the district attorney, and the city's medical examiner used the material on them to create DNA profiles for the victim and an "additional unknown male." The second profile was entered into databases, but did not match any profiles currently in the system. The case remained cold until March 2022. That's when the district attorney's office and the NYPD cold case squad joined forces with Othram, a private laboratory, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to use to try to learn more about the second person. uses genetic research and DNA analysis to try to identify DNA profiles. Othram was able to use advanced DNA testing to create a "comprehensive genealogical profile" from blood left at the murder scene, the district attorney said. Meanwhile, the NYPD's Forensic Investigations Division used databases and public records to build a family tree of the victim to try and determine possible suspects. That family tree helped lead investigators to Anthony Scalici, Prestigiacomo's nephew. Scalici, now 41, lived in Boynton Beach, Florida. Detectives from the NYPD and the Boynton Beach Police Department surveyed Scalici in Florida, working to obtain a DNA sample. On Feb. 17, 2024 — almost exactly 15 years after his uncle was murdered — police were able to retrieve a discarded fork that Scalici had used. That fork was analyzed and a DNA profile matched the unknown DNA found at the murder scene, the district attorney said. Matching DNA was also recovered from under Prestigiacomo's fingernail. United States Marshals, the Boynton Beach Police Department and the NYPD's Regional Fugitive Task Force arrested Scalici on May 14. He was extradited to New York City on Wednesday. The New York Times reported that Scalici's lawyer, David Cohen, said his client had pleaded not guilty. He is being held at Rikers Island, the Times reported, and will next appear in court on July 8. Scalici faces up to 25 years to life in prison if convicted. Invesitgators say at this time the motive is unclear, CBS New York reported. The district attorney's office said this is the first time forensic genetic genealogy has been used to identify and arrest a homicide suspect in New York City. "I formed a Cold Case Unit to bring closure to grieving families and seek justice on behalf of victims," said district attorney Melinda Katz in the news release. "This case is an example of the perseverance and determination of the investigators on this, and every cold case, and highlights the successful partnership formed between my office and the NYPD Cold Case Squad. Defendants should not be able to evade justice no matter how much time has passed."

With the BJP government in Rajasthan claiming that the situation is under control amid the searing heat this summer, the Opposition Congress on Friday accused the health authorities of suppressing the number of deaths caused by heat stroke. Pradesh Congress Committee president Govind Singh Dotasra said more than 100 persons have died of heat stroke in the State. While accusing the State government of failing to manage the heatwave situation, Mr. Dotasra said the health authorities were hiding the actual number of deceased persons under pressure from the State government. “The government wants to avoid paying compensation to the next of kin of those dying of heat stroke as directed by the Rajasthan High Court,” Mr. Dotasra said. The High Court had on Thursday taken suo motu cognisance of the heat-related incidents and directed the State government to pay compensation to the dependents of those who had died because of heatwave. The single judge bench of Justice Anoop Kumar Dhand also said there was a need to declare heatwaves and cold waves as “national calamities”. Amid the Congress’s allegation that the authorities had failed to take appropriate steps to protect the public from the ongoing heat wave, Director (Public Health) Ravi Prakash Mathur said only nine persons had died of heat stroke in the State so far and the reports about a higher toll being circulated and published were “beyond facts”. Dr. Mathur said the authentic figures of deaths were released by the Death Audit Committee after investigating the causes of death in the suspicious cases as per the parameters set by the Union government. “If any death is found to be due to heat stroke, it is certified and its report is sent to the Integrated Health Information Platform (IHIP) portal. Only those figures are authentic,” he said. “According to medical experts, deaths can also occur because of serious diseases and other reasons during extreme heat. They cannot be considered as caused by heat stroke, as per the protocol,” Dr. Mathur said. The Health department has released the figures of heat stroke cases reported in the State since March 1 this year. It said the total number of heat stroke patients reported so far was 4,911, of whom 93 were admitted to the emergency wards on Friday. The total number of confirmed heat stroke deaths was nine, and four of them had occurred on Friday, the department said. However, Mr. Dotasra said the bodies of as many as 40 unidentified persons were lying in the mortuary of Jaipur’s Sawai Man Singh Hospital — the biggest government hospital in the State — after their death because of the heatwave. “About 20 to 25 bodies are coming every day, but they are disposed of with post-mortem within three days to avoid paying compensation,” he said. “The situation in the entire State is horrific and worrying. The government is officially stating that only nine persons have died [of heat stroke]. The truth is that the number of deaths due to the scorching heat is very scary,” Mr. Dotasra said in a video message posted on X. The PCC chief said the BJP government was on an “auto mode”, instead of being on alert, compelling the High Court to take cognisance of the situation and pass orders. The State government had completely failed in protecting the people from the heatwave and managing adequate supply of power and water, he said, adding that the Opposition had been constantly demanding that proper arrangements be made for protection and relief in the hot weather.

Violence, disorder, disruption, not permitted," said Rebecca Weiner, NYPD deputy commissioner of intelligence and counterterrorism. NYPD data shows -- 154 crimes so far this year, compared to 96 crimes during the same period last year.

"To someone who is afraid to come on Sunday, what is your message?" CBS New York's Mahsa Saeidi asked. "My message is that we have the greatest police department in the world, the NYPD. The NYPD is really moving heaven and earth to make sure that this event on Sunday is as safe as humanly possible," Treyger said. Parents of hostage hope to see support at Israel Day On Fifth Parade Omer Neutra, of Long Island, was taken hostage by Hamas 238 days ago.

Eight are still there," father Ronen Neutra said. "I'm really hoping that on Sunday, we'll see a large turnout from other communities as well," Orna Neutra said. Friday, President Joe Biden .

NEW YORK - The U.S. will . New York is in the grip of cricket fever. Saturday, , with on Monday. The matchup is Sri Lanka versus South Africa The sport has been thriving among immigrant communities for generations, with local leagues hosting competitions at neighborhood parks across New York City for decades. Cricket as family tradition "My dad was one of the first organizers of the Trinidad against Guyana game," Sunil Maharaj said. "Cricket came to me because we would always be with my dad when he was playing games." Sunil's father Jimmy Maharaj started playing the centuries-old sport in the 1970s, both in Trinidad - his family's homeland - and at neighborhood parks around New York. "Cricket was my dad's first love, then my mom came second," Sunil Maharaj said. Sunil's father received local and international recognition, and had lots of local fans. Even when he became ill with cancer and was no longer able to compete, he still found joy in the game by watching his sons play. "He would come and enjoy cricket, watching us. Sometimes he would give us little tips," Maharaj said. In 2006, the family founded a windball cricket team. That's a form of cricket that uses a softball instead of a traditional hardball. They've been playing in weekly competitions in Brooklyn and Queens ever since. In one word, how would he describe cricket? "Exhilarating," he said. "Because at any moment the game could go either way." The Maharaj family is just one of many families from South Asian and Caribbean communities proud to see the T20 World Cup matches being played in New York for the first time. "I think he would be amazed at how far this game has come, and it's finally in the U.S.," Maharaj said. They hope the competition at Eisenhower Park on Long Island will take the sports popularity to the next level in the U.S. Some basic rules and terms of cricket Cricket, a bat-and-ball game similar to baseball, is played on a 22-yard pitch, which is a rectangular area in the middle of the field. It is played with wickets - sets of three sticks - at each end that batters must defend during the game. Each tea takes turns batting and bowling, which is similar to pitching. The goal is to score the most runs. "There's boundaries. Like baseball has a home run, we have fours and sixes. If you hit the ball and it bounces before it hits the rope, it's four runs. If it goes over the boundary rope, it's six runs," Maharaj said.

READ MORE: Mad Max: Furiosa fans left 'disturbed' A long time Mad Max fan has had his dream come true after scoring a small role in Furisoa: A Mad Max Saga the latest instalment of the hit franchise. Paul Price was just ten years old when he first encountered the famed action film series. Forty years later Price has ended up sharing scenes with Hollywood legend Chris Hemsworth who plays a villain in the blockbuster directed by veteran Australian filmmaker George Miller. Price, 53, is from Silverton, near Broken Hill, 1167kms Sydney. The desolate area around the tiny town was one of the locations used while filming the $333 million (US$168million) mega-production. A long time Mad Max fan has had a dream come true after scoring a small role in Furisoa: A Mad Max Saga the latest instalment of the hit franchise. Pictured: Chris Hemsworth Silverton was also used to film the second Mad Max film in 1981, Mad Mad 2. Price remembers as a ten-year-old seeing cast members in their bizarre costumes parked outside Silverton pub, which is now owned by his parents. 'I woke up that morning and walked outside, (and saw) all the bikers, it just sort of stuck with me for years from there,' he told The Daily Telegraph on Friday. Paul Price was just ten years old when he first encountered the famed action film series. Forty years later Paul has ended up sharing scenes with Hollywood legend Chris Hemsworth who plays a villain in the blockbuster. (A scene from Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga) In Furisoa, Paul got a role as a 'featured extra' as a 'police biker' who is employed by the character of Dementus in the film, played by Chris Hemsworth. Meanwhile, Furiosa's initial box-office in the U.S. has been below expectations. It made an estimated $25.5 million over the Memorial Day Weekend just beating out the family film, The Garfield Movie which earned $24.8 million.

Pictured: Price far right in a scene from the film However, according to Box Office Mojo Furiosa is performing better in other territories across the globe. Its world wide gross to date is $71,717,619. According to Screen Rant , Furiosa wasn't as successful as anticipated because of the wait time between this sequel and the previous one. Fans have had to wait almost 10 years for the Mad Max prequel since Fury Road was released back in 2015. Fans have had to wait almost 10 years for the Mad Max prequel since Fury Road was released back in 2015 Many box office analysts had projected a debut for Furiosa in the $40 million to $50 million range, but like The Fall Guy it fell well under expectations. Critics have embraced Furiosa, earning an 89% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Anya Taylor-Joy plays a younger version of the title character Furiosa in the film, first played by Charlize Theron. It is set over a 16-year period in Furiosa's life, years after a global catastrophe that has turned Australia into a radioactive wasteland. The film follows Furiosa from when she was just 10 years old (played by Alyla Browne) and was abducted by Dr Dementus (Chris Hemsworth), leader of the Biker Horde. The film also stars Tom Burke as Praetorian Jack, Lachy Hulme as Immortan Joe and Angus Sampson as the Organic Mechanic. It's the fifth film in the Mad Max series which began with Mad Max (1979), followed by Mad Mad 2 (1981) and Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome. All three starred Mel Gibson. Mad Max: Fury Road followed in 2015. All of the films have been conceived and directed by original Mad Max creator 79-year-old George Miller.

'We share a brain - maybe too much - and we share a heart. But you are all you and the world is a much more sparkly and magnificent place because you are here,' she continued. Jenna Dewan took to Instagram to celebrate her daughter Everly's eleventh birthday with a sweet message and a carousel of throwback snaps on Saturday The 43-year-old actress penned a heartwarming message for her first born, thanking the youngster for making her a mother 'My first baby is 11,' she began, 'I am honestly so emotional today it will be a small miracle if i can get through this day without blabbering and crying how proud of you I am and how much I love you every single second of the day…!'

Dewan added a heartwarming snap of little Everly hugging her baby bump, just days away from her due date. The tribute post she shared with her 9.5million followers was a hit racking up over 73.5k likes and 536 comments. Fans flooded the comments with birthday wishes and support for Everly with one writing, 'Happy Birthday. Such a pretty girl with a beautiful soul. So grown up.' Another fan penned well wishes and pointed out the similarities between the youngster and her famous father, Channing Tatum. 'Happy birthday gorgeous you are a twin of your dad,' the wrote.

The ex-couple has both since moved on as Dewan is expecting her second baby with fiancé Steve Kazee and Tatum is engaged to actress Zoë Kravitz. Jenna and Steve welcomed their first child together - son Callum, four, born March 6, 2020. 'We share a brain - maybe too much - and we share a heart.

Tatum, who was then an up-and-coming leading man, starred in the first Magic Mike movie in 2012, which was directed by Steven Soderbergh. Just weeks ago, Tatum's attorneys denied his ex's claims that he hid proceeds in an irrevocable trust. They also claimed the Magic Mike actor 'has never denied' Dewan's share of community assets or income. His attorney, Jacqueline Combs, also said the Magic Mike franchise made most of its money after the couple had already separated, according to court documents obtained by DailyMail.com. During an April hearing, Combs said Tatum has tried multiple times to resolve the issue with his ex without having to go through a separate trial, but were instead met with Dewan's 'unnecessarily litigious conduct and delay tactics. 'This has been going on for six years and it's very important to move the case to trial,' a frustrated Combs told the judge. Dewan's attorneys said they also were prepared to go to trial, but alerted the judge that the actress is set to give birth in mid-June. The judge said he was 'very aware' of her due date and ordered time to depose the actress before she has her baby. He added that both Dewan and Tatum should be deposed no later than July 26.

For now, a trial date has been set in December. Dewan and Tatum have indicated they plan to call the other to the stand. 'This is your last chance,' Judge Wasserman told both sides. 'This is it.'

You're so tired and you try to get up and don't know if your leg is going to walk because you've got no strength and everything hurts,' she said.

'I have been very vocal about members of my community going to Qatar and promoting it with everything that's going on in the world and the human rights atrocities.' 'I've got hypocrite tattooed on my hand for a reason. I can very well say this stuff, but I'm going to Qatar later this year to experience it firsthand.' 'Not in five-star hotels, but with members of the trans community and those who can't express who they are because of fear.'

Chloe Goodman arrives at the airport with her fiancé Grant Hall ahead of their wedding in Portugal - but where's her sister Lauryn? Chloe Goodman looked every inch the doting mother as arrived at the airport with her two children and her fiancé Grant Hall ahead of their wedding in Portugal. The former glamour model, 30, appeared in top spirits as she hauled her luggage across the airport on Friday as they prepared to tie the knot in June. But as the family prepared for the big day, her influencer sister Lauryn Goodman, 33, was nowhere to be seen as their family feud seemingly continues as it is believed that she has been uninvited to the wedding. Chloe, who became engaged to the Rotherham United player in February 2020, wore a figure-hugging black lycra one piece with some Nike socks and Air Jordan trainers. She proved she could handle her role as a mother and her tasks of being a bride in her stride as she carried boxes of luggage and took care of her little ones. Chloe Goodman looked every inch the doting mother as arrived at the airport with her two children and her fiancé Grant Hall ahead of their wedding in Portugal But as the family prepared for the big day, her influencer sister Lauryn Goodman , 33, was nowhere to be seen as their family feud seemingly continues as she it is believed that she has been uninvited to the wedding Chloe is a mother to Hudson, two, and Isla, three, who she shares with her footballer fiancé. For the big day she was spotted shipping a large box from Hummingbird Bridal studio, alongside several monogrammed suitcases. MailOnline has contacted Lauryn's representatives for a comment. The feud between the two sisters followed the reveal that footballer Kyle Walker was the father of Lauryn's baby daughter - despite him being married to Annie Kilner. The Manchester City defender, 33, was rumoured to be the biological dad since Lauryn gave birth in August, however she claimed to have welcomed the child with 'another footballer'. Kyle and Lauryn already share son Kairo, three, but he was conceived during Kyle's temporary split from Annie in 2019. Relations have turned frosty between the siblings in recent months, with Chloe and Amelia both unfollowing Lauryn on Instagram and scrubbing any images of her from their accounts, while Lauryn then did the same. Chloe, 30, appeared in top spirits as she hauled her luggage across the airport on Friday as they prepared to tie the knot in June Chloe, who became engaged to the Rotherham United player in February 2020, wore a figure-hugging black lycra one piece with some Nike socks and Air Jordan trainers She proved she could handle her role as a mother and her tasks of being a bride in her stride as she carried boxes of luggage and took care of her little ones Chloe is a mother to Hudson, two, and Isla , three, who she shares with her footballer fiancé For the big day she was spotted shipping a large box from Hummingbird Bridal studio, alongside several monogrammed suitcases The sisters have also made many subtle digs at one another and shared several cryptic posts, hinting at their fallout. In February, Amelia stoked the fires after claiming Lauryn refused to allow Kairo to attend Chloe's son's birthday party. Chloe threw a Sing 2 themed party to celebrate her son Hudson turning two years old, and while Amelia was in attendance, neither Lauryn or Kairo, three made an appearance, in the wake of the alleged sibling fallout. Amelia took to her Instagram Stories to add more credence to the feud claims, as she hit out at Lauryn for not allowing Kairo to go to his cousin's birthday. She insisted that he had been invited and would always be, because 'we love him will all our hearts'. However, she implied that Lauryn herself would not have been welcome at the party, by saying she had offered to take Kairo herself. 'Of course Kairo was invited to Hudson's birthday party and I had offered to take him and look after him myself. 'The invitation was declined. He will always be invited to everything we do as we love him with all our heart.' Following the statement, Lauryn shared a cryptic quote to her own Instagram Stories, that seemingly hinted at the drama. It read: 'Persistence and resilience only come from having been given the chance to work through difficult problems.' The feud between the two sisters followed the reveal that footballer Kyle Walker was the father of Lauryn's baby daughter - despite being married to Annie Kilner In January 2020 the football player got down on one knee during their baby gender reveal party and popped the question. The pair confessed their happy relationship has lifted them both from the depths of depression, with Grant going as far as to say Chloe 'saved his life'. Chloe told The Sun: 'We met at a really bad time in our lives; I had just broken up with my previous fiance and also lost a child. I moved back to my Brighton home town and had to pack up and close my clinic and start again. 'He had just gone through a break up as well and was dealing with a terrible time in terms of football - he didn't know if he was going to play again.' Grant admitted being diagnosed with chronic tendonitis in his knee in April 2017 forced him to face up to the fact he might never play again. He explained: 'I was going out five, six weeks in a row, using it as a coping mechanism to distract myself from my injury, just drinking and trying to forget about football because I didn't want to be around it, and that's when I met Chlo.' The pair soon became inseparable and believe they only 'got through things' because they had something else to focus on. The defender's career struggles lasted for almost two years, but he kept the worst of his crippling depression a secret from Chloe. Chloe revealed she cried when Grant sent her a link to a radio interview he had done about his mental health battle. Grant says he always knew he wanted to marry Chloe, but she was so surprised she nearly 'keeled over' when he proposed in front of their friends and family. Her outing comes amid her family feud with Lauryn, 32, (right) with it being claimed both Chloe and their other sister Amelia, 25, (centre) have have fallen out with her (pictured together in 2017) Chloe revealed she is engaged to her footballer partner Grant after he popped the question at their baby gender reveal last month The pair confessed their happy relationship has lifted them both from the depths of depression, with Grant going as far as to say Chloe 'saved his life'

Caroline Manzo details sexual assault allegations against Brandi Glanville in new court filing as she claims Real Housewives co-star 'forcibly fondled my vagina against my will' Manzo, 62, claims Glanville, 51, 'locked' her in a bathroom 'where she forcibly fondled her vagina' The reality star claimed Bravo producers 'watched and kept filming' the assault during Ultimate Girls' Trip production Manzo said her costar was encouraged by production who plied them with alcohol as they filmed in Morocco 'When Glanville was sexually assaulting me on the sofa, she was rubbing her vagina on me,' Manzo wrote in the filing, per the outlet. 'The producers just watched and kept filming. They saw that I was in distress and yet, they continued to film.' Manzo said production failed to intervene, allowing Glanville to persistently consume alcohol and follow her into the bathroom, where Glanville allegedly pushed her against the door, resulting in a head injury. '[Glanville] then locked me in the bathroom where she forcibly fondled my vagina against my will,' Manzo continued in the legal documents. Caroline Manzo (left) provided a detailed account of the alleged sexual assault by Brandi Glanville (right) that occurred while they were filming Real Housewives Ultimate Girls' Trip in Morocco. The RHONJ alum, 62, claimed the former RHOBH star, 51, forcibly groped her vagina while producers were filming the Bravo series in a signed affidavit filed on May 28, according to Page Six 'Glanville maliciously sexually assaulted me for her own sexual gratification,' she added. 'She did this by forcibly kissing me, rubbing her vagina on me and then fondling my vagina against my will.' DailyMail.com has reached out to Bravo, as well as Manzo's and Glanville's reps, for comment. The affidavit comes after Glanville's attorney claimed she was 'used and abused by NBC, Bravo, Warner Bros., and Shed Media' as they accused the network of 'hiding evidence' that would clear her name in an explosive legal letter threatening a lawsuit. Manzo made headlines in 2023 when she alleged that Glanville kissed her without consent and even 'forced her vagina against her back' during filming of the Housewives spin off show in Morocco. In January, Manzo officially filed to sue Bravo over her claim that production encouraged Glanville to sexually harass. In legal documents filed a month later, Glanville's attorney's appeared to suggest Manzo was lying, insisting no assault took place, as they demand the network release to them 'all existing documents and data' pertaining to the accusations. 'Ms. Glanville and Ms. Manzo engaged in "dirty dancing," flirting, and playful touching,' the letter reads. 'Throughout the night, they shared a couple of kisses. Glanville's attorney claims that the TV star has been 'used and abused by Bravo' and they are accusing the network of 'hiding evidence' that would clear her name in a new legal letter (pictured 2023) Manzo is suing Bravo and claims production encouraged Glanville to sexually harass her during filming the Housewives spinoff Ultimate Girls Trip (pictured 2021) 'We have heard about a supposed "bathroom incident" through press leaks, but Shed Media has repeatedly refused to allow Ms. Glanville or her counsel to see the footage in question; there is no truth to any allegations of impropriety'. The letter continued: 'It is apparent some allegation was made; however, neither the nature nor the source of that allegation has been clarified by NBC, Shed Media, or Warner Bros. 'We can glean from the press coverage—seeded by malicious and deliberate leaks—that Ms. Manzo formally accused Ms. Glanville of sexual misconduct and that Ms. Glanville was sent home as a result.' They continued: 'It bears emphasis that Ms. Glanville and Ms. Manzo were never alone together; anything that happened took place in the presence of the cast and crew. All the events were captured on camera or picked up via microphone.' Glanville's legal team maintain her innocence and insist that the TV star was never alone with Manzo, and that her costar 'did not manifest a lack of consent at any point.' The letter also sees Glanville's reps accuse Manzo of 'feeding a defamatory narrative' to the media and of being the source behind the press leaks regarding the claims. The letter states: 'We have every reason to believe that Ms. Manzo, with the tacit or express support of Bravo and Shed Media, is the source of the early and voluminous press leaks that began immediately upon Ms. Glanville’s return home. 'Yet Ms. Glanville was admonished to remain entirely silent and to refrain from defending herself. She was further told that assuming her compliance with that directive, she would have the opportunity to work for Shed Media/Warner Bros. again on the condition that she completes 6-months of outpatient therapy with a Warner Bros.-affiliated therapist. Ms. Glanville did so. 'It became apparent afterward, however, that this was a false promise intended to ensure Ms. Glanville’s silence.' Glanville previously revealed that her face was left disfigured due to stress-induced angioedema - a condition which causes swelling under the skin The star, pictured left in 2017, has been working with a plastic surgeon to conquer her condition - pictured right in 2024 It continues: 'All the while, Ms. Manzo, Bravo, and Shed Media were feeding a defamatory narrative that destroyed Ms. Glanville’s reputation, employment prospects, mental health, and financial stability and caused untold harm to Ms. Glanville and her family.' In a statement shared with DailyMail.com, attorney Bryan Freedman called for other 'victims' of Bravo and NBC to reach out to their team and join the 'fight' against the network. He wrote: 'This is yet another example of the abusive practices of the reality TV industry. Mark Geragos and I have heard from thousands of current and former cast members on reality shows about the physical and emotional harm inflicted on them by virtue of their participation. NBC, Bravo, Warner Bros., and Shed Media intentionally obscure their legal rights, bind them to illegal contracts, and knowingly cause them to suffer in silence. 'We know there are untold numbers of innocent victims who have yet to tell their stories or seek legal redress. We encourage all of them to contact us and join our growing team as we fight for change in this sordid industry.' The letter highlighted how Glanville has been plagued with health issues ever since Manzo's allegations went public, and said she has been in 'dire straits' after Bravo tried to 'humiliate and ruin her publicly.' The reality star has talked openly about how her face was left disfigured due to stress-induced angioedema - a condition which causes swelling under the skin Glanville's team accuses the network of having a 'reckless disregard for the mental and emotional health' of employees - adding that Glanville has been treated like a 'sacrificial lamb' and has faced 'social and economic death.' They are seeking evidence from the network's servers, storage, personal computers, portable systems. The legal letter warns that 'Ms. Glanville is uniquely positioned to reveal more revelations' and is just one of thousands of stars to come forward against the network in recent years. According to court documents obtained by Page Six, Manzo claims Glanville 'forced her vagina against her back' and 'proceeded to mount Manzo on the couch holding Manzo down with her body, forcibly squeezed Manzo's cheeks together and thrust her tongue in Manzo's mouth, while humping her.' The documents state: 'Defendants, including Bravo, regularly ply the Real Housewives cast with alcohol, cause them to become severely intoxicated, and then direct, encourage and/or allow them to sexually harass other cast members because that is good for ratings.' 'Caroline Manzo is a victim of those harmful actions,' it added. In her full statement in response to the suit at the time, a representative for Glanville told DailyMail.com: 'Sadly, Brandi had to wake up to yet another lawsuit that includes defamatory, false accusations about her. While filming, Brandi followed what the producers asked of her, and there was no sexual assault. 'She is innocent of these absurd accusations that have weighed on her mental and physical health for far too long without word of support from Peacock, Shed or Bravo.' The statement concluded: 'This painful storytelling seems endless and needs to stop. She is looking to move on and upward and get her life back.' This isn't the first lawsuit filed against the network over the Housewives franchise. Last year butler Marco Vega - who worked and appeared on season two of Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip - filed a lawsuit for sexual assault and harassment. In his lawsuit, Vega said he was 'sexually harassed and abused' while shooting the show at Dorinda Medley's Blue Stone Manor claiming he was slapped on the buttocks by Phaedra Parks and that he was 'forcibly stripped' by Glanville, who ripped his shirt off. In her lawsuit, Manzo alleged that the former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum kissed her without consent and even 'forced her vagina against her back' Glanville insists she is innocent and 'vehemently denies any wrongdoing' - pictured in 2009 Leah McSweeney filed a discrimination complaint with Bravo last year, alleging she was forced to miss her grandmother's funeral due to filming commitments. A lawsuit filed by McSweeney is said to be imminent, Page Six reported at the time. Back in August, a bombshell letter revealed that 80 reality stars had teamed up to accuse the network of 'covering up sexual violence, condoning revenge porn, exploiting minors and denying mental health treatment'. Bethenny Frankel was believed to have led the charge, though the former RHONY star has since clarified that she is not one of the people who is officially taking legal action against Bravo or NBC.

JoJo Siwa confirms that she does NOT write her own songs as she compares the process to buying clothes versus sewing them JoJo Siwa confirmed that she does not write her own music following claims her latest single, Karma, was 'stolen.' After denying 'stealing' the track, which was released in April, to TMZ, the Dance Moms-star-turned-pop-star, 21, took to TikTok to 'confirm' that she is not responsible for coming up with her lyrics. 'I don't WRITE my songs. I SING them. I have an incredible team of songwriters that write songs and pitch them to me to see if [they] wanna make the song mine!!' she explained in her post. She continued: 'It's kinda like when you buy clothes... you don't "MAKE" it, but it's yours after you buy it! They also ALWAYS get their credit and, of course, their check.' 'I do enjoy the writing process, however for me as an artist that is not my specialty so I like to work with different songwriters to sing their lyrics, add a feeling to it, and ultimately bring the song to life!' the Dancing with the Stars contestant concluded. JoJo Siwa confirmed that she does not write her own music following claims her latest single, Karma, was 'stolen' from Miley Cyrus (seen in 2024) In the video, the Boomerang hitmaker could be seen dancing and lip synching to her upcoming track, Choose Your Fighter, while rocking rainbow face paint across her eyes. 'In the video, the Boomerang hitmaker could be seen dancing and lip synching to her upcoming track, Choose Your Fighter,' she captioned the footage. This comes after Siwa emphatically denied 'stealing' her song, Karma, which was originally recorded by performer Brit Smith. 'Honestly, it's an old song,' the reality star explained. 'I was pitched it. I loved it, was obsessed with it, so I grasped onto it.' Siwa added: 'That's a very normal thing… What happens is, people write songs and then they just don't do anything with them. And then, a few years later, it makes more sense for another artist.' 'I just knew that song was a special song, I knew it was a work of art, and I knew that it fit exactly the vision I wanted to create for the world,' said Siwa. Smith recorded the song and video for 'Karma's a B**ch' with Rock Mafia and Timbaland in 2012 as her scrapped debut single, after Miley Cyrus passed on the track for her third album Can't Be Tamed in 2010. Label execs encouraged her to go with another song, titled Provocative, as her debut in 2013, but the single ultimately underperformed and Smith left the industry. After denying 'stealing' the track, which was released in April, to TMZ, the Dance Moms-star-turned-pop-star, 21, took to TikTok to 'confirm' that she is not responsible for coming up with her lyrics (seen on April 01, 2024) 'I don't WRITE my songs. I SING them. I have an incredible team of songwriters that write songs and pitch them to me to see if [they] wanna make the song mine!!' she explained in her post 'I do enjoy the writing process, however for me as an artist that is not my specialty so I like to work with different songwriters to sing their lyrics, add a feeling to it, and ultimately bring the song to life!' the Dancing with the Stars contestant concluded (seen in 2024) In April, Smith came to Siwa's defense as she filmed a video setting the 'record straight once and for all' about the plagiarism allegations surrounding Karma. 'JoJo did not steal my song,' she said in a TikTok video. 'There's been a lot of talk and a lot of comments and they just keep going, so I just thought let me come on here and hopefully put an end to this.' Smith continued: 'She was totally in the right to record her version, and I hate to see that anybody would think that I'm a part of any kind of bullying or anything like that.' 'I was bullied in high school and I know what that feels like, and I would never want to be thought to be part of any part of that,' she added. 'I just want to make it clear that JoJo has done nothing wrong to me,' she concluded. Meanwhile, Siwa insisted she didn't 'know who Brit Smith is' to TMZ.

TAMPA, Fla. — Lyme disease is a bacterial infection that affects hundreds of thousands yearly. The infection comes from a deer tick bite and though cases are highest in the northeast and upper Midwest, we also see people with the disease here in Florida. LIVING WITH LATE-STAGE LYME DISEASE “I got my PhD in public health at the University of South Florida which was a wonderful experience,” said Tara Foti. With 20 years of experience in health care, Foti scored her dream job working at Kaiser Permanente in Oakland, California, one of the United States’ leading healthcare providers. “I got to work with a dream mentor and we did really impactful research about substance use during pregnancy,” said Foti. Life was great until she started feeling chronically fatigued and experiencing unbearable physical pain. “I had to request work accommodations to have a flexible schedule,” explained Foti. However, soon, it became clear that she wouldn’t be able to perform at work. So, she moved back to Tampa to be close to family and her established healthcare providers. “So, I got a call from the health department saying, ‘We got your blood work. You are CDC positive with Lyme disease.’ And I was very surprised,” said Foti. She was diagnosed with late-stage neurological Lyme disease in January of 2023, though, she said she doesn’t know how she got it. “And I’m like, ‘Ok, that makes sense.’ I have neurological symptoms,’ said Foti. “‘But what does one do with late-stage neurological Lyme disease?’ And they said, ‘The goal, actually, would just be to keep you comfortable.” HOW TO PREVENT GETTING LYME DISEASE “If there’s ticks there, you have a chance of being bit by those ticks and when you’re bit by those ticks then it can spread the disease,” said George Springer with Spectra Wellness Solutions. I wanted to learn about this disease, which was first identified in Lyme, Connecticut in 1975, and how to prevent getting it. So, I went to Dr. George Springer’s office. He’s an expert on the matter. “What I tell people to do all the time if they want to try and prevent it is if you’ve been out hiking – certainly out in the woods or those areas – is just to do an inspection of each other,” said Dr. Springer. Dr. Springer said you’d be looking for a red spot or rash. If they’re present, it’s important to see a doctor immediately to possibly get started on antibiotics. CONTROLLING THE TICK POPULATION IN FLORIDA “Generally, if somebody has Lyme disease in Florida, it’s because they have been infected from a tick with that bacteria in a different state,” said Dr. Deby Cassill with the University of South Florida. But how common are the ticks that spread Lyme disease in Florida? “So, in Florida, it actually turns out to be really quick common north of, essentially, the I-4 corridor. So, from Tampa working your way northward up to, essentially, Tallahassee,” said Dr. Greg Glass with the University of Florida. Both professors said there aren’t any tick population control programs with high efficacy like we have for mosquitos. “And they can show that they have some effect, but they really don’t have, what we call, a population effect. They don’t really knock the population down to a level that really reduces the risk for the human population,” Dr. Glass. “I will say one thing about Florida, we have fire ants and it turns out that fire ants love to eat juveniles and the eggs of ticks and mites. So, they have become our best friends when it comes to Lyme disease,” said Dr. Cassill THE ROAD AHEAD AND THE FIGHT AGAINST LYME DISEASE As for Foti, well, she still feels fatigued, but she’s recently found a specialist who gives her hope for the future. “He really was the first one that I felt could put the whole picture together, but the trouble with that is he’s not in Tampa. He’s across the state, he’s in Miami, doesn’t take insurance, you know, so this becomes challenging in other ways,” explained Foti. Foti said her family spent nearly $26,000 in out-of-pocket medical expenses. The Foti family has a GoFundMe page to help offset the cost.

An allegedly intoxicated speeder landed himself under water after trying to escape from police on Interstate 82. The driver, Nicholas A. Corley, 31, was heading east going about 90 mph when he approached a construction zone about 2 miles outside of Prosser, Washington State Patrol Trooper Sarah Clasen told the Tri-City Herald. A trooper saw Corley speeding in the construction zone and pulled out behind him to stop him. He allegedly didn’t stop, but did lose control and ended up in the Chandler Canal. Corley was able to escape from the car while emergency crews made their way down to the area to check on him, Clasen said. They were able to find him down the river. She said he appeared to be intoxicated. Columbia Basin Dive Rescue was asked to help with attaching towing cables to the vehicle to pull it out. He was arrested on suspicion on eluding police, DUI and driving on a suspended license.

May 31—LAKE ANDES, S.D. — An 18-year-old Lake Andes man has been arrested in connection to a homicide that occurred in Charles Mix County in May. According to the Charles Mix County State's Attorney's Office, Mackenzie Antelope has been charged with first-degree murder and first-degree manslaughter for the May 22 death of 22-year-old Quinlan Ream of Lake Andes. Antelope was additionally charged with aggravated assault against 33-year-old Dylan Oullette of Lake Andes. The incident occurred at the Landing Strip Motel in Lake Andes. According to court documents, Antelope, Ream, and Oullette were all consuming alcohol at the motel on the evening of May 21. According to witnesses, Oullette and Antelope engaged in a verbal altercation, during which Antelope reportedly grabbed a knife. Antelope cautioned Oullette that he would "poke" him if he approached. Subsequently, when Oullette seemingly raised his arms, Antelope proceeded to stab him multiple times. Documents further detail that as Antelope was stabbing Oullette, Ream intervened by jumping onto Antelope's back. Consequently, Antelope redirected his attack towards Ream, stabbing him as well. Oullette managed to escape and went across the street to the Gus Stop gas station, where an employee called 911. Reports from witnesses regarding the presence of a red car parked outside the motel room directed authorities to Antelope's grandmother's residence. Although Antelope initially denied being present at the motel during the stabbing, authorities linked him to the crime scene by matching the pattern on the sandals he wore during the interview to footprints discovered inside the crime scene. During his initial interrogation by authorities, Oullette initially claimed that he had passed out drunk and awakened to an unidentified individual stabbing him. However, in a subsequent interview, Oullette identified Antelope as his assailant. The South Dakota Division of Criminal Investigation, along with Yankton Sioux Tribal Police and the Charles Mix County Sheriff's Office, worked together to apprehend Antelope. "This case is a prime example of Tribal, State, and County governments working together," Charles Mix County State's Attorney Steve Cotton said in a statement on Friday, May 31. "Due to this collaborative effort law enforcement officers from multiple agencies were able to act swiftly in order to protect the public." Antelope is currently being held at the Charles Mix County Jail on a $500,000 bond and will have an initial court appearance next week. If convicted, a Class A felony such as first-degree murder, carries a penalty of life in prison and can be subject to the death penalty.

May 31—PRESTON, Minn. — Three students from Winona Middle School were injured in a school bus rollover crash on Friday, May 31, 2024. The sixth-grade class was on a field trip to Forestville/Mystery Cave State Park when one of the buses "ended up on its side" on 212th Street near Preston, according to Winona Area Public Schools Communications Coordinator John Casper and Fillmore County Sheriff John DeGeorge. Thirty-five students and four adults were on the bus. Casper said the class is about 150 to 200 students, though not all students attended the field trip. The three students injured were transported to Mayo Clinic Hospital-Saint Marys with "minor injuries." The students on the bus were transported in vans to Winona Middle School where parents can pick up their children. Casper said students also had "some bumps and bruises" which were treated at the crash scene. "We are grateful for the immediate and compassionate response of Fillmore County law enforcement," the district wrote in a message to families. "Safety is our top priority, and we are thankful for all the individuals who work together to keep our students and staff safe." DeGeorge said the right side tires of the bus likely "drove off the gravel road in an area with a steep shoulder, causing the bus to tip" on its side around 10:11 a.m. Friday. The crash is under investigation. The Minnesota State Patrol will inspect the bus, according to Sgt. Troy Christianson. The Fillmore County Sheriff's Office, Wykoff Fire Department, Spring Valley Ambulance, Spring Valley Fire Department and Preston Emergency Services responded to the crash. As of 1 p.m. Friday, students are arriving at Winona Middle School. The last day of school for Winona Middle and High School students is Thursday, June 6. "When we send out messages, I always try to give parents resources to deal with it because this can be a scary situation, even if you just hear about it," Casper said. "(My kids) heard about it and they were alarmed just because they take school buses for field trips. The site that we like to use is the National Association of School Psychologists. (It) has a lot of great resources for parents talking about situations like this with their kids. I'd just say check in with your kids even if you don't go to Winona Middle School or Winona Area Public Schools. Just the thought of a school bus getting into an accident, it's a good way to check in with kids and make sure they're OK." Below is the message Winona Area Public Schools shared with families: Hello families, This morning, a bus taking Winona Middle School sixth-grade students on a field trip to Mystery Cave and Forestville State Park was involved in an accident on a Fillmore County highway. The bus ended up on its side. Three students were transported by ambulance to St. Mary's Hospital in Rochester. The families of the three students have been contacted by either law enforcement or school administration. Other students and staff who received minor injuries were treated on site. Ready Bus Company, which provided the buses for the field trip, sent another bus to take students back to the middle school. Some students were understandably not comfortable getting back on a bus, and alternate forms of transportation were being arranged to return them safely back to Winona Middle School. Students and staff were waiting in a safe space away from the road. Families who would like to pick up their 6th grade middle school student early may do so by contacting the attendance secretary at 507-494-1030. We are grateful for the immediate and compassionate response of Fillmore County law enforcement. Safety is our top priority, and we are thankful for all the individuals who work together to keep our students and staff safe. This is a traumatic experience for the students involved in the event and for those who witnessed it. It can also be unsettling for students who hear about it. Please check in with your child throughout the weekend to see if they need help processing what happened. The National Association of School Psychologists has many great resources for parents. This resource provides tips for discussing school violence, but many of the same strategies are applicable to this situation. Again, we want to thank Fillmore County law enforcement and the emergency first responders for their immediate and compassionate response to help our students and staff during a scary situation. Thank you, Winona Area Public Schools

A Bowie teenager was killed in a three-vehicle crash Friday in Clay County, according to a media release from the Texas Department of Public Safety. In addition, a Fort Worth man was injured in the wreck just after noon on U.S. Highway 287, about a quarter mile south of Bellevue. A 2020 Volvo truck-tractor towing a 2016 CIMC semi-trailer was stopped on the right shoulder of the highway when a 2017 Chevrolet Malibu failed to drive in a single lane, according to allegations in a DPS preliminary investigation. The Malibu struck the back end of the Volvo truck-tractor, spun clockwise in the travel lane and then struck the trailer of a 2017 Freightliner truck-tractor towing a 2008 JLTL semi-trailer. The Malibu came to rest across both southbound lanes. The 16-year-old passenger in the Malibu was pronounced dead at the scene from injuries sustained in the wreck. She was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash. The DPS will not release the name of minors involved in the crash, according to the media release. The agency cited department policy and courtesy to the families of those involved. So the name of the 16-year-old who died was not available from the DPS on Friday. Donald Anthony Shelton Jr., 47, of Houston was driving the Volvo truck-tractor and was not injured. He was wearing a seatbelt. James Clifton McGlothlin, 48, of Fort Worth was the driver of the Malibu. He suffered incapacitating injuries in the crash and was transported to Texas Health Harris Methodist Fort Worth. McGlothlin was not wearing a seatbelt. Matthew Gavin Lowe, 45, of Decatur, Alabama, was driving the Freightliner truck-tractor. He was not injured. Lowe was wearing a seatbelt. The posted speed limit was 70. This article originally appeared on Wichita Falls Times Record News: Crash on U.S. Highway 287 takes life of teen

May 31—Three judges from northeast Oklahoma have been assigned to preside over the cases against Pittsburg County Sheriff Chris Morris, with prosecutors filing two new felony charges. Morris, 50, was charged May 14 with a felony count of embezzlement of state property in connection with the alleged sale of a UTV to the Pittsburg County Sheriff's Department, a move investigators say personally benefited him. Court records show two additional felony charges of bribery by public official were filed Friday against Morris. In the first count, Morris is accused of receiving a discount for a lift kit on a personal side-by-side in exchange for up charging repair invoices on sheriff patrol vehicles. The second count involves hail damage being repaired for free on a personal vehicle owned by Morris "in exchange for his promise to provide future business" from his department for future repairs. Pittsburg County Commissioners voted May 20 to file a document titled "Accusation for removal of sheriff of Pittsburg County, Christopher Morris, by the Pittsburg County Board of County Commissioners." The petition alleged that Morris willfully and habitually, "with bad or evil purpose," neglected the duties of his office by acting in "an inexcusably reckless manner." Court documents filed Friday show the hearing for the petition is currently set for the July trial docket at the Pittsburg County Courthouse. All Pittsburg County District Judges recused themselves from the case with Kelly Hake, the presiding judge for the East Central Judicial Administrative District given the task of assigning judges to the two cases. To serve as magistrate judge in the criminal case, Hake assigned Cherokee County Special Judge Jerry Moore. Serving as district judge in the criminal case is Wagoner County District Judge Douglas Kirkley. Creek County Associate District Judge Laura Farris was assigned by Hake to preside over the petition to remove Morris. District 27 District Attorney Jack Thorp, who is prosecuting the criminal case against Morris, will represent the commissioners during the removal proceedings. He also signed the petition. Morris is represented in both cases by the McAlester-based law firm Gotcher and Beaver. Morris in statements has said the truth will come out and said politics was behind the criminal charge filed against him. The sheriff also said he was disappointed in the Board's decision "after only hearing one side of the story." "I've done nothing wrong, and I am concentrating on winning the election June 18 and my day in court. The sheriff is elected by the people, the people elected me and the people should be the only ones to be able to remove me. Whether it's by trial or election!" No additional hearings in the criminal cases have been scheduled as of Friday afternoon. As of now, all hearings will be held in Pittsburg County.

It’s not often students get to spend a school day riding rollercoasters at an amusement park. But it’s all in the name of science. “We’re thrilled to marry the concept of an amusement park and education,” said Bob Williams, the general manager of Calaway Park. Around 1,900 Calgary high school students were at the park on Friday for a physics and science day – a hands-on lesson featuring rollercoasters and other rides. It’s a partnership between the park, located just west of Calgary, and the University of Calgary, that gives students a chance to earn a mini degree in “rollercoasterology.” “We wrote (a) curriculum on physics and science, workbooks, that students can use to mix science and physics and fun all in one day,” Williams said. The booklet is filled with questions based on rides in the park, with students needing to use their skills in math, science and physics to get the answers. “Our rollercoaster, the vortex rollercoaster, when you go up the chain and the chain releases you, you are gravity fed. There’s no engine driving the coaster. So, it’s all based on physics that is does the two loops where you go upside down and then come into the station where it brakes. That’s all gravity and that’s physics,” explained Williams. “I feel that’s a real good way to show that the stuff that we learn in school is very applicable in everyday life,” said Zana, one of the students at the park. The science and physics day at Calaway Park has been running for over 10 years.

It’s a way to honour a fallen fellow biker; a memorial ride organized by family and friends. “Usually when we do a group ride like this, a lot of people are impatient. Today when they see the coffin, they’ll understand what we’re really doing and understand we’re out here for a good cause,” said James Fiddy. Fiddy is one of many bikers who took to the road on Wednesday to honour the life of his friend Chris Wills. To break away from a traditional hearse, his coffin was carried by a motorcycle. “You should be celebrating the life that they lived. Myself, if I could be on my motorcycle 24/7, I would,” said Brad Chalcraft, owner of One Last Ride Ltd. Chalcraft bought the hearse a few years ago from Ontario. He saw it as a unique way to give bikers one last ride. So far, he said the reaction on the road has been positive. “Even driving down the highway, people are taking pictures, videos. It’s just kind of a shocking look when you see it. It’s not something you see every day,” said Chalcraft. It’s a final farewell, but for Chris’s wife Kristy McGregor, it is so much more. “I wasn’t riding with him when he passed, so for me it’s my last ride with my love,” she said. Chris is remembered by his family and friends as caring, full of integrity and a philanthropist. He died in late April, in a motorcycle crash on Highway 21 and Highway 16, on his way to collect charity donations. “There’s always purpose in our rides and the purpose is always doing good things,” McGregor said. “That’s what my husband would have wanted.”

A former Knox County sheriff charged in connection with the death of a 1-year-old child in a wreck in Wichita County was granted lower bail. Michael Lloyd Carlson, 64, testified Friday in 78th District Court he could not come up with the $30,000 it would take to arrange his $300,000 bond. Carlson was jailed on a manslaughter charge on April 22, 2024, in connection with a wreck on May 17, 2023, on U.S. Highway 287 northwest of Electra. Carlson was still being held Friday evening in the Wichita County Jail, according to online jail records. According to allegations in affidavits, Carlson was driving at an unreasonable speed at the time of the collision and not looking out for traffic controls. The Texas Department of Public Safety said traffic was being diverted from the main highway to U.S. Business Highway 287 due to another wreck shutting down the northbound lanes. Carlson's pickup was traveling in the left northbound lane, and approaching the detour, the pickup had to move into the right-hand lane, according to allegations. The driver didn't see an SUV in the right-hand lane that was stopping because of slowed traffic. The pickup struck the SUV in the rear, causing it to slam into the utility box trailer of a truck ahead of it. Two women and two children in the SUV were injured. Aveline Hill, 1, was taken to a Fort Worth hospital where she died the following day. Carlson, of Truscott, formerly served as a deputy sheriff and sheriff in Knox County. He was on probation on a deadly conduct charge in Knox County when the wreck occurred. In that incident, Carlson is accused of firing several shots into a camper trailer, wounding one man. A pair of law enforcement officers testified on Carlson’s behalf as did his wife. Judge Meredith Kennedy agreed to lower Carlson’s bail to $150,000 on the condition he stay in Knox County and abide by other restrictions.

Flowers are accumulating outside the home of a Vernon, B.C., woman who died earlier this week. Kaylee Bannister, 32, lived along the 5500 block of Heritage Drive until Tuesday, when she died in what are officially undisclosed circumstances. RCMP said only that there was a woman’s death and there was no known risk to the public when asked Wednesday about a significant police presence in an otherwise quiet neighbourhood. On Friday, they still had little to offer, but a makeshift memorial in Bannister’s driveway has seen flowers and notes with the words Justice4Kaylee. Those offerings to the mother of a 12-year-old and a six-month-old speak to the nature of the investigation police have embarked upon. Global News reached out to Bannister’s friends. To date, only one was willing to speak, but under the condition of anonymity due to safety concerns. “I’m pretty heartbroken. I have my moments of rage where I’m angry,” said the friend, who knew Bannister for the better part of a decade. She believes Bannister was killed in a situation that she’s advocated for others to escape: Domestic violence. Police have not confirmed this. “She was loved by many. She lit up any room she would walk into, she had a heart of gold,” the friend said. Witness of deadly Ontario boat crash says it was a matter of ‘when, not if’ Chad Daybell found guilty of killing ex-wife and 2nd wife’s kids Ontario cold case: DNA technology helps solve woman’s murder 25 years later, police say Montreal billionaire Robert Miller arrested on sex charges involving 10 victims “She would give the shirt off her back if she had to. Her kids and her dog were her life.” The friend said that Bannister’s case is evidence that “the justice system needs to do better.” “She didn’t deserve to die the way she died,” the friend said. “She deserves every bit of justice and our justice system needs to show that.” Angela Marie MacDougall, the executive director of Battered Women’s Support Services in Vancouver, said it’s another sad example of an “epidemic of violence against women in B.C., but also Canada.” “We know that one in three women have experienced domestic violence, and, of that, there is a significant portion who are at risk of lethal violence,” MacDougall said. Women in abusive relationships are at heightened risk when they leave, when they’re pregnant and in the early months of mothering, something they’ve noticed through their crisis lines in the Vancouver area. And, she pointed out, it’s not looking better in the North Okanagan. “Just last week we were discussing another killing of a woman within the vicinity of the greater Vernon area,” MacDougall said. “There have been far too many femicides here this year. We know that domestic violence and intimate partner violence is not a policy priority right now, for the province of British Columbia.” MacDougall said there is a provincial action plan on gender-based violence that, at the moment, doesn’t highlight domestic intimate partner violence as a priority for this first year. That, she said, needs to change. “Right now femicides in British Columbia aren’t registering on the provincial government at all, unfortunately,” she said. “We have what is certainly a serious social problem of which femicide — or the killing of a woman by a partner, current or ex — should basically be alarming to any of us out there. “For every woman who is killed, we know that there are thousands more who are living in fear.” MacDougall said there needs to be bigger and more thoroughly funded community-based interventions.

MINNEAPOLIS — Jamal Mitchell's friends remember him as a changemaker. His family knew him to be a peacekeeper. The 38-year-old Minneapolis police officer was determined to make the city a better place for all its residents. " had a big heart," said his mother, Janet Edwards. "He really loved people." Mitchell was killed in a in the Whittier neighborhood of south Minneapolis on Thursday evening that left two others dead, including the shooter. Four people were injured. Police say he was trying to provide medical care to someone when that person shot him. He died later at the hospital. His parents said getting the call that their son died doing what he loved was a shock, but at the same time, it wasn't. "It was a career that he wanted to pursue, and he chose that," said his stepfather, Dennis Edwards. "Like they say, he never turned away from people, helping people, or being there to serve with people." Mitchell grew up in New Haven, Connecticut; one of 12 children in a blended family. He had a twin, Jamel, but he was the quieter of the two. His parents said he was the peacekeeper of the family. "He always had a positive attitude about everything. He was never negative," said Janet Edwards. "He would always turn that around and make it better for everyone." Janet and Dennis Edwards say Mitchell was proud to wear the uniform. He wanted to change community-police relations. Mitchell was a regular at Lotus Restaurant in Loring Park, where he quickly became a favorite of all who worked there. "He had that sense of humor and that human factor to him that's easily approachable," said Yoom Nguyen with Lotus Restaurant. "He goes above and beyond, if that makes sense. You know you could count on him." Now, an empty chair sits where Mitchell once enjoyed his favorite meal. Nguyen said Mitchell made sure people hanging outside the restaurant were treated with dignity and respect by connecting them with the resources to improve their lives. Civil Rights activist Michael Wilson says MPD needs more officers like Mitchell. "He wanted to make change. True change," Wilson said. "We talked a lot about these changes." Wilson said his bravery, compassion, and love of people will be remembered. Mitchell's parents want people to never forget their son's sacrifice. "I'm grateful that he went, that he did his job," said Janet Edwards. "I want to say, 'well done Jamal. Well done, well done.' I'm proud that he was my son." Mitchell was a father of three: two boys and one girl. He was a fiancé, a brother, an uncle, and a dear friend to many.

Alberta’s police watchdog is investigating after a pregnant woman was given prescribed medication in cells then taken to hospital, where she lost her baby. Officers found the woman the next morning, on May 13, appearing to be having seizures. It says an examination at the Lloydminster Hospital in Saskatchewan determined the woman was pregnant. She had an emergency C-section, and the baby was delivered but died a few hours later. The woman had been arrested four days earlier on outstanding warrants and was waiting for a court appearance. The response team says it will examine the conduct of police, including the circumstances surrounding the woman’s arrest and her time in custody.

Regina’s Newo Yotina Friendship Centre, which includes a supervised injection site, sent out a public warning following recent drug overdoses in the city. Using the Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) machine, the friendship centre tests samples of street drugs in Regina as part of its harm reduction. Recently, they have tested substances containing fentanyl, xylazine and benzodiazepines. “There’s been some stuff going around that’s been dropping a lot of people,” said Emile Gariepy, the friendship centre’s harm reduction manager. “We’ve had many overdoses around on the streets and the safe injection site as well, too. It’s been busy the last little while.” Gariepy calls it a potent mixture that Narcan can’t always reverse. “Xylazine is the animal sedative or tranquilizer (that) we’re noticing more than fentanyl,” he said. “About 95 per cent of all fentanyl has Xylazine right now.” Gariepy encourages local residents to test their drugs to avoid any more drug overdoses. Although none of them have been fatal, he said it’s always a risk when using. “Our message with our harm reduction is just know what you used before. Know what you’re taking, know what’s inside of your drugs and use them safely,” he said. “We have places for you to use it safely, and we have our FTIR drug-checking machine to check what’s inside of it and to give you the education that you need to use and safely as well, too.” Regina Fire Chief Layne Jackson said crews have responded to 14 overdose incidents in the last week. They have seen a higher frequency of reports in the inner city and Regina’s city centre.

May 31—LIMA — A Lima man pleaded guilty Friday in the Allen County Common Pleas Court to one count of rape, a first-degree felony. The plea deal for Anthony Elliott, 74, included removing the language in the charge that said the victim was under 10 years old and dismissing the additional charges of rape; public indecency, a third-degree misdemeanor; and gross sexual imposition, a third-degree felony. Judge Terri Kohlrieser will sentence Elliott on June 27. A prison sentence is mandatory for the charge. The state recommended a seven-year minimum prison sentence, and Kohlrieser has the option of sentencing him anywhere between three to 11 years. Elliott will also have to register as a tier-III sex offender for the rest of his life. Reach Charlotte Caldwell at 567-242-0451.

Police say they arrested 14 people at a protest blocking a railway line in East Vancouver on Friday. About 100 people had gathered at the Canadian National Railway crossing at Kaslo Street and Grandview Highway late Friday morning in support of Palestinians amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza. In a media release, police said the demonstrators refused orders to clear the road and tracks, and alleged some protesters became “hostile” with police. Video from the scene showed police forming a line and directing protesters to “step back” from the rail line. When protesters refused, police then advanced into the crowd and arrested several people as scuffles broke out. “Unlawful protests that block vital infrastructure put peoples’ safety at risk,” Const. Tania Visintin said. “Our officers worked quickly, with help from CN Police and Metro Vancouver Transit Police, to prevent a prolonged blockade on the train tracks and to keep traffic moving.” Police said they aimed to recommend mischief charges against the 14 people arrested at the scene.

Jody Wade is a free man as far as Wichita County is concerned. On Friday, 78th District Court Judge Meredith Kennedy granted the former wrecker-truck business operator early release from probation related to hindering a secured creditor. Wade had pleaded guilty in 2022 to charges he tried to remove the bed of a heavy-duty wrecker truck that was listed as collateral against an outstanding loan and received three years of probation, deferred adjudication. That kind of community supervision allows a person to avoid a conviction on his record if he successfully serves his probation. The case was one of several legal skirmishes the one-time high-profile and controversial businessman encountered in Wichita Falls. He has previously been charged with DWI, public intoxication and for unlawfully carrying a firearm. Wade was arrested in Washington, D.C., in 2020 after a bike police officer making a sweep in advance of former President Donald Trump’s motorcade noticed Wade’s ankle monitor. A weapon was found in Wade's vehicle. Wade testified Friday he was not aware he had crossed into the District of Columbia, which has strict gun laws. “It was kind of funny but not really,” he said. He spent more than a month behind bars for that incident. Wade, who has admitted to problems with alcohol, told the court Friday he was remorseful for his actions. Defense attorney Dustin Nimz told Kennedy that Wade had paid all fees and restitutions as required. Wade is no longer in the wrecker business and now lives in Young County. Kennedy terminated the probation after Wade tested clean Friday for alcohol and drugs. Before he became mired in legal problems, Wade had held an exclusive contract for the city of Wichita Falls towing needs from 2013 to 2018.

Federal prosecutors on Wednesday filed a new indictment against Robert Krop, a co-owner of The Machine Gun Nest, alleging that he conspired with Frederick County Sheriff Chuck Jenkins to illegally acquire machine guns. Krop was originally indicted alongside Jenkins in April 2023. On May 3, 2024, U.S. District Judge Stephanie Gallagher dismissed without prejudice the charges against Krop after she found that his right to a speedy trial had been violated. In a May 21 court filing, prosecutors wrote that the statute of limitations on the dismissed charges would not expire until six months from the order of dismissal, allowing the federal government to file a new indictment against Krop as long as its attorneys did so before Nov. 3. In her order dismissing the original indictment against Krop, Gallagher agreed to hold his Oct. 15 trial date for three weeks while prosecutors decided whether to file a new indictment. Three days before the deadline in Gallagher's order of dismissal, federal prosecutors requested a one-week extension. On May 24, Gallagher denied the prosecutors' request for an extension because it was filed in the form of an informal letter, rather than as a motion, and because the request was made too late. The new indictment filed on Wednesday lists the same five charges against Krop that were in the indictment that was previously dismissed, including one count of conspiracy to violate federal laws regarding machine guns, three counts of making false statements and one count of illegal possession of machine guns. In the new indictment, prosecutors allege that Krop and Jenkins conspired "to acquire machine guns by means of fraud and materially false statements and representations and to rent those machine guns to private citizens in exchange for money." Dan Cox, an attorney who is representing Krop in the conspiracy case, could not immediately be reached for comment on Friday afternoon. When reached by phone on Friday, Angelina Thompson, a spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Maryland, said there had been no scheduling order in the new case against Krop. Jenkins’ trial is scheduled to begin on Jan. 27, 2025. It is expected to take seven days. The cases against both Jenkins and Krop center on a series of "law letters" in which Jenkins requested demonstrations of machine guns that Krop would not have otherwise been able to acquire. At the time, The Machine Gun Nest held a license that allowed the business to import, transfer and possess machine guns for the purpose of providing demonstrations to law enforcement agencies or military branches looking to purchase the weapons for use in their official duties. Federal prosecutors allege that, despite Jenkins' statements that the Sheriff's Office wanted a demonstration of the machine guns for purposes of "evaluation and familiarization," he never actually requested a demonstration from Krop. Instead, prosecutors wrote in the new indictment, "Krop had requested the letter so that he could acquire the machineguns and rent them to customers." Prosecutors wrote that in 2018 and 2019 alone, The Machine Gun Nest collected over $100,000 in profits from renting out the machine guns. Prosecutors say the conspiracy began in August 2015 and lasted until May 2022. Krop has previously stated in court filings that he contacted Jenkins in an attempt to set up demonstrations of the machine guns for the Sheriff's Office.

Throughout her diving career, Margo Erlam knows what it’s like to take a leap of faith. Moving provinces from her hometown of Calgary to Saskatoon at 16 years old, Erlam joined a new diving club and community with few previous connections all in the hopes of bettering her training in the pool. Erlam is one of five athletes who will be wearing the maple leaf in diving at the 2024 Olympics, meeting the Olympic standard in the three-metre springboard at the Canadian trials earlier this month in Windsor, Ont., to achieve a dream that’s been in the back of her mind since her earliest days in the pool. “That was probably one of the most emotional days I’ve had in my career,” said Erlam. “It was something special, I knew when I hit the water that I had done it. This is something that I’ve been working for my whole life.” It was an emotional moment for her Saskatoon-based coach Mary Carroll as well, knowing the path that it took for Erlam to reach the Olympic level. “I couldn’t be more proud and pleased with Margo,” said Carroll. “She’s had a little bit of a rough go, shoulder surgery and the whole bit. She’s come back really strong and it was a Cinderella story.” With the Paris Games looming, Team Canada has taken their training camp out west for the first time with practice sessions at the Shaw Centre in Saskatoon. It’s a rare chance to train at home for Erlam, Carroll and Pike Lake product Rylan Wiens. “I know the Olympics is a dream come true but this is a pre-Olympic dream come true,” said Wiens. “We don’t often get to have those people from Montreal come out here and train in our facility other than at competition.” “I was excited Sunday night, coming in Monday morning just like a kid going to his first day of school.” Joining Wiens and Erlam in the Saskatoon pool were Wiens’ synchro teammate Nathan Zsombor-Murray, along with women’s national team members Caeli McKay and Kate Miller. Pending official selection by the Canadian Olympic Committee, Wiens will be off to his second Olympics after representing Canada at the 2020 Tokyo Games. In the three years since the Tokyo Olympics were held, Wiens has become one of Canada’s top medal threats with the national record in the men’s platform and a pair of silver medals won at the 2022 Commonwealth Games. “Rylan, compared to his first go-around at the Olympics, he was a boy and now he is a man,” said Carroll. “That’s the biggest difference I see. Technically and competitively he’s matured, he’s showed that he has medal potential.” Wiens will be getting a much different Olympic experience this time around, as the postponed 2020 Tokyo Games were riddled by COVID-19 protocols and zero fans in attendance. Meanwhile, he will be aiming to improve on his 19th place showing in the 10-metre platform. “Since the Olympics I’ve been travelling to every international competition doing well,” said Wiens. “Medalling here and there, really showing everyone that I deserve to be there and deserve to be fighting for a medal. I’m three years older, three years more experienced, three years more confident.” It’s a historic year for Saskatchewan’s diving community with two of the five national team slots belonging to athletes from the province, emblematic of the talent coming out of Saskatoon and Regina according to Carroll. “It says a lot if we’re saying 40 per cent of the team is from Saskatoon, that’s huge,” said Carroll. “Rylan was the only one not from Montreal last time, so it’s a statement.” Before wrapping up their Saskatoon portion of the training camp, Team Canada members met with young divers from the Saskatoon Diving Club on Thursday night to answer questions and form connections with the next generation of national athletes. “They can see that you don’t need to live in Montreal to be able to go to the Olympics,” said Erlam. “You can follow in the path that Rylan and I have done, we stayed in the west and we’ve made it this far. So I think it’s very inspiring for them.” Diving competition at the 2024 Paris Olympics will begin on July 27 with the Canadian Olympic Committee expected to formalize the team in the coming weeks.

May 31—BLUFFTON — If all goes as planned, a new Heritage Center will adorn the grounds of the Swiss Community Historical Society's Old Schumaker Homestead by the time the annual Bluffton Fall Festival rolls around on the last weekend of September. That $1 million plan, however, hinges exclusively on the support of corporate and individual donors, who thus far have provided approximately 80% of the funding necessary to transform a barn built in the 1850s into an educational/cultural center to display artifacts and advance the history of Swiss settlers in Allen and Putnam counties. In 2019 the historical society's board of directors, with their collective eyes on the future, purchased the barn from descendants of Peter Bixel Jr. It was a structure that had stood along Phillips Road for 170 years. The board's vision was to have the barn dismantled, piece-by-piece, and then re-constructed at the Schumacher historical site at 8350 Bixel Road — some two miles down the road from the barn's longtime home. Five years years later the project is nearing completion. Following a ground-breaking ceremony in August of 2023 crews began the task of reassembling hand-hewn oak beams taken from the Bixel barn. By mid-November the structure was under roof, with window and door framing and other tasks being completed. Earlier this year new flooring was installed, a heating system was installed and bathroom walls were framed. Work continues today, but funds are running short. Board member Jeff Althaus, who along with Seth Bixel serve as project managers for the Heritage Center, this week said initial estimates for the project set the cost for the center at $850,000. Mandated additions, many of which focused on requirements contained in the Americans With Disabilities Act, boosted the cost to more than $1 million. Gary Wetherill, president of the historical society board, expressed his appreciation to donors whose contributions have made the project possible. "This project turned out to be a little bigger than we thought it would be, but it is being financed totally by donations. A town of 4,500 people (Bluffton) really stepped up for us," he said. Additional funding is still needed, and Wetherill is confident it will be secured. "There are quite a few followers of this project who played in that old barn as kids and who have said they are looking forward to seeing it again. I think there is some entity out there — be it corporate or an individual — that is happy that this barn is being saved and will step up." "We're the best kept secret in Ohio," Althaus said of the not-for-profit historical society, "and our pocketbook is about empty." The repurposed barn when finally compete will be heated and air-conditioned and will include a large event space, classroom, artifact storage space and public restrooms. "We don't want it to be a full-blown event center, but we will gladly open the barn for people who want to hold reunions and similar gatherings," said Wetherill.

A dog is back home safe after running away, having embarked on a 10-day long journey traveling from Washington state to Canada on foot. Just 30 minutes after being adopted by his new owners, Barley ran away from his home in Tonasket, Wash., embarking on a 10-day, over 100-kilometre-long journey from Tonasket crossing the border to Penticton. “That is an incredible distance to travel. He’s lucky he didn’t get clipped or have something more dangerous happen to him,” said Jacenda Byer, Petra’s Pawdicures owner, who assisted with the rescue. Following multiple sightings on social media, Rita Kessell, a dog rescuer based in the U.S., made contact with Barley during his trip to Canada, but she came up short. “That dog, the night before he moved into Canada, he absolutely would not go in the trap, and I was using a different trap from the local sheriff’s department; it was a longer trap. He still would not go in it,” said Kessell. Once Barley made it into Canada, he was spotted in Penticton’s Sage Mesa area. “I did see a post it was 15 or 20 minutes old that he was right near me I happened to be near there,” said Darren Sweet, who assisted with the rescue. Byer, who is from Kelowna, was called in to help trap Barley, who used her dog Petra to lure him in. “We let Petra go back and forth on the side of me with my friend, and he started to relax. He saw she was happy,” said Byer. Barley’s fears eased and Byer finally got ahold of him. “We finally got him on (a) lead. We picked ticks off him, I rubbed his belly — he’s the most gentle boy,” said Byer. Barley was treated for exhaustion and some leg pain, and he has since been picked up by his owners. They told Global News he’s doing well back home in Tonasket.

May 31—VALDOSTA — Former President Donald Trump has a long history of popularity in Lowndes County, and the chief of the county's Republican Party organization doesn't see that changing in the wake of Trump's conviction. Trump was found guilty Thursday by a jury in New York on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records to conceal another crime, specifically paying "hush money" to porn actress Stormy Daniels to keep voters from finding out about an alleged sexual affair between them. "Those charges were, to use a phrase, 'trumped-up,' " said Gary McMillan, chairman of the Lowndes County Republican Party. "He didn't do anything wrong. This was a political act, not criminal." The conviction would have no effect on this November's presidential race, in which Trump is a candidate, McMillan said. The county GOP leader said his own vote in November — for Trump — would not be changed. McMillan also said he expects Lowndes County's vote to go to Trump this November. "That's because we're predominantly a Republican county." In the 2016 presidential race, when Trump defeated Democrat Hillary Clinton, the Republican candidate carried the county with 25,692 voters, or 57.9% of the electorate, while Clinton took only 14,614 votes, or 39.7% of voters. Trump won the presidency that year. In the 2020 race, Trump carried Lowndes again with 25,692 votes, or 55%, while Democrat Joe Biden took 20,116 votes, or 44%. Trump lost the presidency that year, but has never admitted defeat. During the 2016 election, Trump visited Valdosta, addressing a rally at Valdosta State University's P.E. Complex. The removal of several Black people from the rally caused accusations of racism nationwide, which the Trump camp and Valdosta's then-Police Chief Brian Childress denied. In December 2020, not long after losing the 2020 presidential election to Biden, Trump again visited Valdosta to back state GOP candidates in runoff races. Terry Richards is the senior reporter for The Valdosta Daily Times.

The controversial tiny homes community for the homeless in Kelowna, B.C., was officially opened this week. Announced last November, STEP Place took North End residents and businesses by surprise when the city and province announced the housing project for the 700 block of Crowley Avenue. The site — which began accepting residents earlier this year — features 60 single-room units. It’s also located across from the homeless camp along the Okanagan Rail Trail. According to the city, STEP Place will provide “a safe, stable environment,” where residents “will receive the support they need to prepare for and find more permanent homes.” “For those who have experienced the uncertainties and challenges associated with homelessness, the act of moving into STEP Place signifies far more than a change of location,” said city spokesperson Colleen Cornock. “It is the start of a new chapter in their lives and will act as a springboard towards brighter, more stable, futures.” The site is fenced, with the city noting it has on-site staffing plus security monitoring 24 hours a day. STEP stands for Supported Transitional Housing with Embedded Programming. The site is run by the John Howard Society and offers programs and numerous services. The city says the site’s lease with BC Housing is for a decade. Also Friday, the city announced that move-in day has arrived for controversial homeless housing project. Trailside, which is located along Highway 97 North, features 60 individual living spaces. The site is fenced and is focused on seniors and those with disabilities. “Trailside and STEP Place align with council priorities around homelessness,” said the city, “including advocating for wrap-around supports and graduated housing options.”

Military life often means moving every few years. It’s a requirement that can get expensive for military families. Now, they are a step closer to getting more help to cover the cost of housing. A measure to restore the monthly housing stipend back to 100 percent recently passed a key House committee. Amy Shick knows firsthand about the expenses facing military families. Her husband serves in the U.S. Army, and they live near Joint Base Lewis McChord in Washington State. It’s an area of the country that, like so many others, has had skyrocketing housing costs. “Inflation has hit our economy really hard and military families are feeling it,” said Shick. Shick is a board member of the Military Family Advisory Network (MFAN). The group has been pushing for years to help military families keep up with rising costs. A big focus is on the Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH). It is based on the location, level of service in the military, and whether there are dependents. In 2019, BAH was lowered to cover 95 percent of housing costs down from 100 percent, leaving military families with higher out-of-pocket expenses. “Our BAH dollars have not caught up and so our spending power is a lot less, which means it can turn into a financial hardship for military families,” said Shick. But this month, there was progress in the House to restore BAH. The House Armed Services Committee passed H.R. 8070, the FY25 Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which includes the measure to restore BAH to 100%. Our Washington News Bureau spoke with Rep. Marilyn Strickland (D-WA), who has been leading the effort to help fully restore BAH in the House. “We know it is long overdue,” said Strickland. “Restoring it to 100% is one way to put a couple hundred dollars a month back into the pockets of families who are serving our country.” Shick says the move is critical to help families. “This just gives military families some more breathing room financially. These moves are just very expensive,” said Shick. The next step in the process is for the full House to vote on the measure. That could happen as soon as early-mid June. “Basic housing is a fundamental right that all people have especially those who are serving our country,” said Strickland.

A man was arrested at Frederick County Public School's central offices Thursday, in what he said was an effort to raise awareness of the county Board of Education's elimination of a virtual learning program Wednesday. Adam Carter-Campbell was charged with one misdemeanor count of trespassing at a public agency and released on his own recognizance, according to online court records. Carter-Campbell said Friday that he was trying to bring attention to the Board of Education's elimination of the school system's Remote Virtual Program as part of efforts to balance its fiscal year 2025 budget. The program, which serves children who are unable to learn efficiently in a typical classroom environment or who prefer to complete their schooling online, was eliminated for students in grades 3 through 8, but remains in place for high school students. Carter-Campbell said a child he knows attends the RVP program and has benefited enormously from it. The boy was being bullied and distracted at his normal school, which was affecting his performance, he said. “It just wasn't working well,” Carter-Campbell said. Since entering the program, the boy's grades have improved tremendously, he said. Carter-Campbell said he entered the vestibule of the building on East Street Thursday and sat down. When an official asked if he had any business to conduct at the building, Carter-Campbell said he replied that he did not. After police were called, he was arrested by an officer from the Frederick Police Department. In an emailed statement Friday, FCPS spokesman Eric Louérs-Phillips wrote, “Yesterday, an individual entered the vestibule of our Central Office and sat down without attempting to enter the building or communicate with FCPS staff. Despite multiple attempts to offer assistance and requests to leave, they did not respond. After exhausting all options, Frederick City Police were contacted and the individual was arrested for trespassing.” Carter-Campbell said being arrested definitely wasn't fun, but he felt like he had to do something. “I was just trying to raise awareness, I guess,” he said.

May 31—Esther Marks is a senior at Mead Hall Episcopal School who has received a full ride scholarship to a private South Carolina university. Marks received the Griffith Scholarship, which will allow her to attend Presbyterian College with all expenses paid. She was additionally accepted into Furman University, Wingate University, Winthrop University, Bryn Mawr College and Davidson College. "I was really happy to get into those colleges too," Marks said. At Presbyterian, Marks plans to study biology on the pre-medical track with a dream of becoming a doctor. The Griffith Scholarship is Presbyterian's most prestigious award, given each year to two high school seniors. The scholarship is by invitation exclusively, meaning that only select students are asked to apply. "It felt really great," Marks said about learning she'd received a full ride. "I was very excited, because it takes a lot of pressure off, not having to worry about which student loans you're going to have to take, and it makes a lot of the decision making easier." Marks has been attending Mead Hall since 5k. "I think this school has definitely given me a place where I can just stand out a lot, it gives a lot of opportunities for me to lead certain groups like taking a role in [the] Environmental Club," she said. Marks said that she learned a lot as a younger student about interacting with adults, which helped her out during the interview-heavy application process for the Griffith Scholarship. "Mrs. Gordon, our old headmaster, she used to always greet us at the carline and be like, 'OK, now shake my hand. Say good morning Mrs. Gordon!' And you know, as a kid, that's a big deal ... it's interacting with an adult in a professional way," she said. "Being able to use some of those skills that Mead Hall taught me helped a lot." Marks said that she's been enjoying finding things to put in her future dorm room and that she's "really looking forward to seeing the campus on PC and the community there." She said that once she's at the school, she's interested in getting involved with the Ecology Club and its composting and pollinator garden. "I just love being able to help out wherever I can," she said. Marks credits her mom for helping her find her charisma when talking with people, and her dad for teaching her that hard work will eventually bring in results. "I definitely want to say thank you to my parents," she said. Lindsay Tucker, Academic Dean and Registrar at Mead Hall, said: "Esther is a phenomenal student. She has worked really hard all of her years here at Mead Hall. I have only witnessed this two years, her junior and senior years, but Esther is always willing to pitch in, she's always willing to help, and just run things and you can always count on her leadership abilities and her drive." "The scholarship is amazing, but it's not a shock, because she has worked so hard," added Tucker. "It's well deserved, and we're very proud of her...we know she will go to do bigger and better things."

PORTERSVILLE, Pa. (KDKA) -- On a sunny day, the Snowman shaved ice stand is a cool beacon of icy hope, proudly along Route 488 in Butler County. Co-owner Brain LaChance said that the idea to open this little refreshment spot came to him while he cut the grass on his property, and watched all the cars go by with people heading to nearby parks. "The origin of it was, what would be the thing to put here?" LaChance said. "What's the thing? What's the missing thing, then it kind of dawned on me that there are ice cream places nearby or close enough, but no one was doing shaved ice at the time." Once LaChance knew what he wanted to serve up, he started looking into building a brick-and-mortar shaved ice shop, but after a trip to Ohio, he settled on buying a giant, 13-foot fiberglass snowman on top of a trailer. "So, it is a roadside attraction, and the color scheme was off from when we looked at it," said LaChance. "It had black motorcycle gloves on, it had a hunter green snow cone, which is a weird color for shaved ice, and the hat was blue." Quickly, the colors were fixed, and the Snowman opened in Portersville in 2013. It has been doing a steady summertime trade ever since. They have even expanded the business to have a mobile trailer that they take on the road to local fairs, festivals, and events. The Snowman not only serves shaved ice with many different flavors, but they also serve ice cream, sundaes, and milkshakes. Anything to help people beat the heat of the summer sun. "I got the Yeti Sundae," said patron Lindsey Gasparovich. "Chocolate ice cream with the red shaved ice. It's absolutely wonderful. And my pup got the pup cup!" "This place is great because where else can you go, stop by a giant snowman, and get the best ice cream on a hot summer day," said Abby Boucher, who brought her kids out for a cool treat. "It's Instagram-able!" The Snowman is open every day except Mondays in Portersville from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. For more information, click here.

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- By now you know , but how soon does the planning start for keeping everyone safe? The event is getting more popular every year and is expected to bring more than 300,000 people to the city. KDKA-TV spoke with Detroit Police about how they got ready from a public safety standpoint. It's estimated more than 700,000 fans packed Detroit. was a year in the making. Prior to that, it was talking with past cities who have hosted it. "We still have to operate the entire city, so we really had to balance that out. Look at what you need in the downtown area to put the draft on but you also have to service the entire city of Detroit," Detroit Police Commander Matthew Fulgenzi said. Every week they were having meetings with the NFL. Detroit police is about three times the size of Pittsburgh police, but they say it was a team effort to secure everything. They had help from other local departments, state police and agencies like the FBI, ATF and Homeland Security, so they had thousands of officers. In addition to law enforcement, they stay in communication with businesses, so everyone was on the same page. "Bringing everyone in, not operating in mini silos, working together as a team, and that's what made this event successful," Fulgenzi said. Now there were some arrests during the event, but Detroit police say it was nothing that wouldn't be expected when you have nearly three-quarters of a million people coming together. They had officers in uniform and undercover to keep everyone safe. "Sometimes people have too many drinks. We had a couple issues, nothing major," Fulgenzi said. Now Detroit police are talking with Green Bay, who is hosting the draft next year. to speak with leaders out there about hosting the draft. Pittsburgh Public Safety said they are in the early stages of planning now but add they have hosted big events before so they have some understanding of what may be needed. Any specifics are not expected quite yet. "Understanding you can't do this alone as an agency, partnerships are key," Fulgenzi said.

Milwaukee School Board members could fire Superintendent Keith Posley or take other disciplinary action against him at a meeting Monday night, according to a meeting notice updated Friday evening, days after board members found out MPS had failed to submit key financial reports to state officials. According to the meeting notice, board members could discuss Posley's employment in a closed door meeting, before possibly returning to a public meeting to take action. At the meeting, board members may consider "dismissal, demotion, licensing or discipline" of the superintendent. They may also discuss Posley's compensation and performance evaluation data, and confer with legal counsel, according to the meeting notice. The meeting, at 5:30 p.m. Monday at MPS' Central Office, will also include a public hearing on the district's budget and financial situation. Board members delayed voting this week on a district budget for the 2024-25 school year to get more information about where the district's finances stand. Also at the meeting on Monday, board members plan to announce the hiring of an outside financial consultant that will help the district get its financial reports in order. Some community members have called for Posley to resign, or for school board members to fire him, since news broke this week that the district has failed to submit financial reports to the state Department of Public Instruction, some of which were due more than eight months ago. DPI warned that it could suspend funding to MPS if the reports are not filed promptly. MPS has not granted the Journal Sentinel an interview with Posley. Milwaukee School Board members have said they didn't find out about the missing financial reports until May 24, when DPI notified board members, which DPI spokesperson Chris Bucher called an "extraordinary step" as the department urged MPS to submit its reports as quickly as possible. State officials could withhold a special education payment to the district June 10 and a general aid payment June 17 if the district does not have a corrective action plan in place, Bucher said. If MPS later completes its missing reports, it will be able to recoup any of the payments that had been withheld. MPS board held two closed meetings this week about Posley Milwaukee School Board members have already convened two closed-door meetings to discuss Posley's employment on Tuesday and Thursday. They didn't share developments from those meetings. In addition to the late financial reports, DPI has said that MPS made errors in its reported costs for the 2022-23 school year, which could result in a "significant reduction" in state aid for the 2024-25 school year. Asked how significant the reduction could be, Bucher told the Journal Sentinel the amount could be in the "tens of millions" of dollars. Bucher said he cannot confirm what the errors were until there is more information from the district. "It is possible grant dollars were coded into the incorrect fiscal year, there are journal entries without complete documentation, and we believe there are incorrectly coded revenues and expenditures," Bucher said. If state aid is reduced, the district could maintain its total revenue by relying more heavily on local property taxes, which could result in a tax hike, according to Rob Henken, president of the Wisconsin Policy Forum.

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — Nippon Steel and U.S. Steel announced foreign approvals for the Japanese acquisition of the American company on Thursday. But the companies still need approvals from the U.S. government. In a joint press release on Thursday, Nippon Steel and U.S. Steel announced they secured needed regulatory approvals from foreign governments and agencies outside the United States for Nippon's $14.9 billion acquisition of the Pittsburgh-based steel company, approved by U.S. Steel shareholders in April. In a statement, U.S. Steel CEO Dave Burritt noted, "We are pleased with the regulatory approvals received, as they are a clear indication that the transaction with Nippon Steel is pro-competitive and supports the strategic merits of foreign investment." But it's U.S. government approvals that are more important, and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is leading an inter-agency panel examining the national security implications of the deal, as she told KDKA-TV in February. "We take national security very seriously, and our job is to protect it, and we will do that," she said in February. Both President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump oppose the deal, along with the United Steelworkers International Union. But there is no indication yet whether the Yellen-led committee on foreign investment in the U.S. or the Justice Department will block the transaction. "I know that they are going through their regulatory process," Lt. Gov. Austin Davis said. "But the chief concern of mine is making sure we protect the jobs, we grow the industry to make sure American-made steel continues to be made in the Mon Valley here in western Pennsylvania." Davis, who lives in the Mon Valley, shares the concerns of many local lawmakers about the future of local steelmaking and jobs if a foreign acquisition goes through without safeguards. No word on when U.S. agencies will complete their review.

Antoinette Dromo's family immigrated to the U.S. from Ghana before her freshman year of high school in search of better education and services for Dromo, who is deaf. Her family moved to Columbia in Howard County. Dromo said she tried attending a "mainstream," or hearing, school. But after a few days and several Individualized Education Program meetings, she said, Dromo and her family decided she should go to the Maryland School for the Deaf instead for high school. On Friday, Dromo was one of the 25 graduating seniors in the school's class of 2024. She plans to enter the workforce before going to college and is considering taking online classes. She isn't sure what career she wants to pursue yet, but is interested in design. Going to the Maryland School for the Deaf opened up a world of opportunities for Dromo, she said. It allowed her to connect with other people who are deaf, socialize and participate in clubs like the Junior Black Deaf Advocates and the cosmetology club. "I'm able to learn better, I was able to improve my skills, really be who I am," Dromo said in American Sign Language (ASL). "... Deaf people can. They can do anything, and they can learn here." Graduates hailed from around the state. Some were from Frederick and others were from other counties. John Serrano, the school's superintendent, said in ASL that part of what makes this class unique is that some students started their MSD journeys as pre-kindergarteners and others began attending years later as adolescents or teenagers. During his speech to the graduates, Serrano talked about the idea that life is linear and moves forward in a constant, upwards direction — but really, there will be obstacles along the way as the graduates enter adulthood. He also mentioned the theme for this school year — "Level up" — and the idea of continuing to push past one's comfort zone to grow and improve in the face of challenges. "Life is not always predictable. ... Reality teaches us that life is not linear. There are many roads less traveled, and sometimes those paths are not clear," he said. "Ending this chapter of your journey at MSD does not mean you stop leveling up. As a concept, that will continue. It's important for all of you as you go through different chapters and stages in life." Kaylieah Fuller and Ian Guettler, the featured student speakers, both spoke in ASL about how graduates have the power to choose the person they want to become. Guettler, who will attend Gallaudet University to study business administration, brought up a quote he saw on social media talking about how many words that are polar opposites — love and hate, chaos and peace, enemies and friends — have the same amount of letters in them. "Sometimes, you feel like there's not a choice, but really, there are choices, and it's how you react to situations," he said. "... For every negative aspect, there's an equal, positive counterpart." Fuller, who will study exercise science at the Rochester Institute of Technology, spoke about how leadership requires accountability and perseverance. The graduates will have so many opportunities presented to them, she said — but "it's your responsibility to seize that opportunity." Neva Whittaker has been attending MSD since she was in second grade and already has a clear vision of what she wants to be. Whittaker wants to become a social worker to help deaf people have better access to mental health services, something she said is sorely lacking and that she's seen through her own experiences trying to get mental health help. She said in ASL that she plans to attend Gallaudet University to study psychology. On Friday, she wore a turquoise cord, her mother's favorite color, in honor of her mother who recently died. Whittaker plans to get a master's degree and eventually a Ph.D., something her mother always wanted to do, but for which she never had time. "I'm kind of going to take and carry that torch for her and get my Ph.D. in her honor," she said. "I'm super excited. I'm ready for college — very excited to start the next chapter."

May 31—A nondenominational Aiken church with 12 other locations in South Carolina will move to a new and bigger church in the fall of 2025. Newspring Aiken's new campus will complete construction on a 40-acre lot late next year on the corner of University Parkway and Trolley Run Boulevard beside Springside apartments. "The city and the county are growing a lot right there," Aiken Campus Pastor Matt Steelman said. "We want to be a multiethnic, multigenerational church and we want to reach different cross sections of the socio-economic [population] ... the outwork of what that could look like, I think, is a congregation that represents the full population of Aiken and not just a portion of it." The Newspring campus is now behind Ollie's Bargain Outlet on Cedar Lane. It can only "squeeze in" 300 seats for the auditorium and 100 seats in the kids' space, Steelman said. "The reason we're building it very practically is because we're out of space and there weren't existing spaces to house us," Steelman said. "Thankfully, there's other churches like Fearless Church right around the corner ... there's no territorialism." Newspring averages 600 to 650 people on Sundays. The new campus could hold 1,500 to 2,000 people across two services each Sunday, Steelman said. The church offers a contemporary service with a live band and sermons from Newspring pastors from across South Carolina. The church has posters of sleek lime green logos with a lowercase "N," featuring modern illustrations of leaves sprouting or springing. Steelman said he wants to improve the ability of Newspring — a relatively young congregation — to bring in college students and expand the young congregation, though the church welcomes anyone. "That's a contingent we want to be a little bit more effective in reaching," Steelman said. "We've seen really good fruit, but at the same time, it feels like a shadow of what could be." How the new campus looks doesn't deprive the church of its mission: helping people have an everyday relationship with Jesus. "We want it to be a place that's known not for the name on the wall, but about the God who it points to," Steelman said. "If it's a blessing to our community and not a curse, then it's a successful thing. If it's just about becoming a bigger church and that's it — that's an incomplete target."

May 31—EDITOR'S NOTE — This story is the final of three profile stories on Mitchell's mayoral candidates to be published prior to the June 4 city election. MITCHELL — Throughout his four decades of working as the vice president of Muth Electric, Terry Sabers helped the Mitchell company grow from four employees to 400. The big growth he facilitated at Muth Electric is what he's aiming to bring to Mitchell on a larger scale. The mayoral candidate's campaign is centered around growth, and he believes he has the formula to help the city begin to grow at a more rapid pace than it has over the past three decades. "We are at a critical point to take Mitchell to the next level in growth," Sabers said. "I have learned the skills to grow something small into something much bigger. It's my goal to do that for Mitchell." Sabers is convinced a lack of affordable housing options is the culprit to Mitchell's slow growth. And he's aiming to address the housing issues he's identified from the mayor's office, if elected. "We've been stagnant for 20 years due to a lack of housing. I've visited 1,400 homes in the last five weeks and the resounding need expressed is the lack of single-family homes at the lower end of the prices," Sabers said. Prior to entering the mayoral race, the retired businessman helped create a local organization he now leads that focuses on building more affordable homes in Mitchell. As president of Mitchell Area Housing Incorporated (MAHI), Sabers has demolished a handful of unoccupied dilapidated homes and had the lots redeveloped with a new affordable home. Sabers has also come up against some challenges while leading MAHI. The latest challenge was getting backlash from some residents along Lake Mitchell who were being asked by MAHI to pay between $14,000 and $10,000 for future infrastructure for a MAHI-led housing development. Sabers said he's shown the ability to handle challenges with effective communication, which he noted has helped resolve issues among residents near the South Lake development. "I've had to work through perception issues with neighbors regarding (the South Lake) housing development and had multiple meetings with them to work through it. You have to know how to problem-solve," Sabers said. Providing more affordable housing options isn't the only goal Sabers has laid out to grow Mitchell. "We have a Corn Palace to fix, a lake and watershed to work on and a secondary water source to implement. We need more restaurants and businesses," he said. He said a "team effort" among city leaders and organizations like the Mitchell Area Chamber of Commerce and other nonprofits aimed at creating a friendly business environment is a key to growth. Sabers believes there is opportunity for the city to foster a more business friendly environment that he said would lead to new businesses coming to Mitchell. "As a city, we need to make sure we work with potential businesses and not drive them away with regulations that are too strict," he said, emphasizing his ability to work as a team with others. City leaders working with Davison County officials and school district officials is something Sabers said he would like to see more of. "I can work as a team with everybody. I've sat on the state Board of Education and other committees, and it's allowed me to work well with a wide range of people sharing a common goal," he said of his past experiences serving on boards and committees. Sabers highlighted his community involvement with numerous local organizations such as youth 4-H, Jaycees, Boy Scouts and Mitchell United Way as valuable experiences for developing leadership qualities. The Salem native has grown to love the community since moving to Mitchell over four decades ago. He is a husband and father of two sons who reside in Mitchell. Sabers' brother, Dan Sabers, is a member of the city council seeking re-election on June 4. If elected, he emphasized there would be no collusion and conflicts with his brother serving on the council. The council ultimately approves agenda items, and the sitting mayor only votes on non-expenditure items if the council has an evenly split vote. A couple months into his mayoral campaign, Sabers declared his stance on the proposed $25 million Lake Mitchell dredging project. During the May 14 mayoral candidate forum, Sabers said he will be voting in favor of the lake dredging loan that's on the June 4 ballot. While Sabers emphasized the city must focus on reducing the runoff entering the lake from the neighboring Firesteel watershed, he said the lake has reached a point of despair that demands action now. "We need to finally take some actions to improve the lake. The voters of Mitchell will decide if this is the right project or not. I am very disappointed that we did not get a filtering project completed on the watershed quicker," Sabers said in reference to the city's 37-acre wetland project that's being built along Firesteel Creek to reduce runoff flowing toward the lake. Sabers has aspirations to continue efforts of revitalizing downtown and redeveloping vacant lots scattered along Main Street. He bought a historic Main Street building where his daughter-in-law operates a well-known boutique and clothing store and has experience with maintaining a historic building. Sabers is well aware of the challenges downtown has faced over the past few years, and he's pleased with some of the progress being made to the key corridor. He said the major million-dollar building renovations being led by California developer, John Adamo, are among the wins helping downtown. With over a handful of corroding downtown buildings being demolished in the past few years, Sabers said the city needs to focus on redeveloping the vacant lots. "For example, if we can get the Third and Main vacant parking lot fixed up and redeveloped, it will be a very nice addition to downtown. How can we replace these buildings that went away with new buildings or usable things? That's what we have to do," Sabers said of his goals for revitalizing downtown.

Wisconsin is within the aurora viewline for places most likely to see the northern lights on Friday night, however those chances are slimming due to the evening's forecast. The Space Weather Prediction Center has forecast a possible geomagnetic storm beginning Friday and lasting until the early morning hours of Saturday morning. A handful of state in the northern U.S. could see the northern lights during that span. The phenomena would be the result of the same cluster of sunspots responsible for the nationwide May 10 aurora display, as they have rotated back in view of the Earth. But this time the storm is weaker, given an intensity level of 2 out of 5. The moderate storm is the result of a coronal mass ejection, or, "huge bubbles of coronal plasma threaded by intense magnetic field lines that are ejected from the sun over the course of several hours," according to NASA. The ejection is the result of a solar flare on May 29. Friday's lights should be observable between 11 p.m. Friday and 1 a.m. Saturday, though they can be seen up until about 3 a.m., according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. However, the state is expected to have cloud coverage Friday night, especially up north, where the chances of witnessing the northern lights is higher. The overnight forecast in northwestern Wisconsin is cloudy and rainy, according to Marcia Cronce, meteorologist with the National Weather Service. "The northwest part of the state is not as good for viewing any northern lights," she said. While southern Wisconsin, and east through Door County, will have thin cloud coverage that will develop, but the region is expected to stay dry, Cronce said. USA Today contributed to this report.
