A friend says DiMaggio, 40, told @placeholder a few months ago that he had a crush on her.
|
In a wild twist in the story of a kidnapped teenager saved when her alleged abductor was killed over the weekend, a report shows a disturbing similarity between the suspect and his father. James L. DiMaggio's father had a violent past, and he once held a teenage girl at gunpoint after professing feelings for her, CNN affiliate KFMB reports. A report from the San Diego Union-Tribune at the time contains similar allegations. James L. DiMaggio was shot dead Saturday, 18 years to the day after his father committed suicide, the station reports. DiMaggio's killing by an FBI agent in the Idaho wilderness ended the captivity of 16-year-old Hannah Anderson. DiMaggio is also accused of killing Hannah's mother and brother in California before fleeing with her.

It was found that Michael Adebowale 'expressed his intent to murder a soldier in the most graphic and emotive manner' five months before last year's attack - but the warning was not passed on to @placeholder authorities.

US internet firms have been warned by the British government they are not above the law after a damning report into the murder of Fusilier Lee Rigby. Ministers have ordered web firms they must take a ‘zero tolerance’ approach to terrorist activity on their networks. It comes after the Intelligence and Security Committee found MI5 'would have been able to prevent' the brutal murder of Fusilier Rigby if Facebook had alerted authorities to online murder threats made by one of the killers. Michael Adebowale, left, and Michael Adebolajo, right, were jailed for life for the murder of Lee Rigby last year

But Facebook allegedly failed to raise alarm over extremist posts
@highlight

@highlight
MI5 delayed submitting an application to monitor Adebowale before he struck in May last year;
@highlight
Without the delay MI5 would 'probably' have set up surveillance on Adebowale in 'the days before the attack’;
@highlight
The application was sitting on the Home Secretary Theresa May’s desk at the time of the killing - having only been handed in the day before;
@highlight
MI5 were trailing Adebowale's accomplice Adebolajo from December 2012 to April 2013;
@highlight
However, undercover agents did not discover anything of ‘national security concern’;
@highlight
This meant that MI5 had to cancel their surveillance of Adebolago in April 2013 – just weeks before the attack.

The draft sanctions resolution would aim to stop @placeholder officials using diplomatic pouches to bring money back to North Korea, according to the person familiar with the negotiations.
|
North Korea threatened Tuesday to nullify the armistice agreement that ended the Korean War in 1953, citing U.S.-led international moves to impose new sanctions against it over its recent nuclear test, the North's official news agency KCNA reported. Pyongyang's military said it will also cut off direct phone links with South Korea at the inter-Korean border village of Panmunjom, KCNA added. Q&A: How worried should we be about North Korea's nuclear test? North and South Korea have technically been at war for decades. The 1950-53 civil war ended in a truce rather than a peace treaty. This is not the first time Pyongyang's rhetoric has written off the armistice. In the aftermath of a previous nuclear test in 2009, it said its military would no longer be bound by the agreement because South Korea was joining a U.S.-led anti-proliferation plan.

Arjen Robben has been the outstanding player of the tournament for me so far, and not for the first time I’ve being thinking ‘If only...’ about the missed opportunity Manchester United had to sign him when he was young. I was at the Dutch team’s hotel the other day after they’d beaten Australia 3-2, to have a coffee with Robben, Robin Van Persie and Nigel De Jong and it was so refreshing to see the enthusiasm — pure delight — flowing through that group. Robben has scored three goals in two games and RVP and De Jong were waxing lyrical about his stats, not least the fact that he’s hitting more than 30kph with the ball still under control — then smashing it home after running half the pitch.

While Israel has yet to officially announce who it sees as responsible for the penetration into its airspace, @placeholder's national news agency on Sunday reported that Israeli fighter jets have flown into Lebanese airspace, causing sonic booms in the area.

Jerusalem (CNN) -- Israeli military experts Sunday worked around the clock to examine the remains of a mysterious drone that was shot down after penetrating Israeli airspace from the Mediterranean Sea. The Israeli military announced Saturday that the unmanned aerial vehicle was shot down over the northern Negev Desert. They say the drone did not take off from Gaza, leading them to consider the possibility that it originated in Lebanon. Israeli security experts point the finger at Israel's longstanding rival Hezbollah, the Shiite militia based in southern Lebanon. "We know it originated in Lebanon," said Ron Ben Yishai, an Israeli national security and defense commentator for Israeli news portal Ynet. "It is entirely clear the UAV was sent by an Iranian proxy. The Iranians provided Hezbollah with their very first drones and they have also funded the organization."

@placeholder Director: A disease outbreak anywhere is a risk everywhere

(CNN) -- My first investigation as a new Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) Officer with the Centers for Disease Control was of a large outbreak of measles, mostly among Hispanic children, many under a year old, and many who became infected when they visited hospital emergency departments for other reasons. I will never forget how nervous I was. I wanted to do a good job for those children, their families and everyone around them. These infants were too young to be vaccinated, and as a result they were particularly susceptible. So we vaccinated those around them to stop transmission. By 2000, a decade after my EIS experience, measles transmission in the United States was declared to have been stopped. However, we still have occasional clusters of measles in pockets of unvaccinated children after measles has been brought into the United States from somewhere else in the world.

That does not mean you cannot criticize Israeli actions, but the cold-blooded murder of @placeholder children will have the effect of making Israelis less willing to believe they can accept Palestinians as their neighbors and live in peace.

(CNN) -- The people who killed three Israeli teenagers have hurt the Israeli people deeply, there's no doubt about that. But they have also harmed Palestinians, and they have hurt the cause of peace. Anyone who fails to condemn this horrific act -- the murder of students going home from school -- is contributing to the poison that makes peace so difficult in the Mideast. Anyone who hesitates, who equivocates, is helping to prolong the conflict. For Palestinians and their supporters around the world, if you remain silent about the killing of Israelis, you are adding to the duration and bitterness of this conflict. Excuse this atrocity, and you condemn the people of this area to remain enemies for the foreseeable future.

Since the death of Michael Brown, America has been in an intense debate over how law enforcement operates in communities of color. I am an African-American police officer -- a term that seems like an oxymoron these days -- and like thousands of other black men and women who wear blue, I exist in two worlds. The open letter, published by theGrio, was an attempt to offer solutions. I wrote about how proud I am to see young black men and women mobilize and rally for a cause but that too many in their movement overgeneralize and paint all law enforcement as corrupt. I explained how, contrary to what is often portrayed, the vast majority of cops aspire to be peacekeepers and that our good work often goes unnoticed.

New York (CNN) -- The Space Shuttle Enterprise made its final descent Wednesday, landing at its new home at New York City's Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum. Though it never traveled into outer space, the Enterprise did make its way from a Smithsonian Institution museum near Washington, above the New York skyline mounted atop a 747 jumbo jet, and up the Hudson River by barge to the museum where it will be displayed for the public. On Wednesday, the shuttle was hoisted by crane and then lowered onto the flight deck of the Intrepid, the decommissioned U.S. aircraft carrier that has been transformed into a museum.

(CNN) -- Black voters allowed themselves to be used by Sen. Thad Cochran to win the Republican primary runoff for Mississippi's U.S. Senate seat. Cochran beat state Sen. Chris McDaniel by targeting black Democrats and getting them to vote for him in a tight race. It was a brilliant political strategy in a state that allows open primaries, where voters can cross party lines to vote. It also showed blacks -- and the Republican Party that ignores them -- that black voters can wield political influence. Cochran won the runoff by a little over 6,000 votes. The runoff was triggered because no candidate garnered 50% of the vote in the first primary, which Cochran lost to McDaniel by some 1,000 votes.

Baghdad (CNN) -- At least five people were killed and 30 others wounded Friday after a bombing outside a Sunni mosque in northeastern Baghdad, police said. The blast took place as worshippers were leaving the mosque in the al-Rashidiya neighborhood following Friday prayers, police said. There has been an uptick in violence lately between Shiites and Sunni Arabs, and the persistent tensions have stoked widespread fears that the simmering hostilities, which raged during the Iraq War, could morph into a civil war. Since the overthrow of Saddam Hussein's government, Sunni Arabs have been politically marginalized, and Shiites, who represent a majority of Iraqis, have emerged with more power.

(CNN) -- Why do UFOs always land in the USA, wondered someone in "Monsters vs. Aliens"? Good question. Sharlto Copley plays a bureaucrat forced into action in "District 9," a film about extraterrestrials. But it's not always the case, as Neill Blomkamp's adventurous sci-fi movie, "District 9," goes to show. Presented in the now-familiar fake-doc style -- at least until Blomkamp gets bored with its limitations when the action heats up -- "District 9" is an edgy little B movie with an injection of impressive big-money special effects courtesy of "Lord of the Rings" director-producer Peter Jackson. The story's origins are with the extraterrestrials' arrival in the early '80s, when they park their spaceship a mile or so above Johannesburg, South Africa. The ship is vast -- almost the size of the city -- but when after three months there has been no contact from the visitors, no sign of life in any form, the authorities decide to break in.

Dr. Joycelyn Elders served as the first African-American U.S. surgeon general during the Clinton administration. At a 1994 United Nations conference on AIDS, she was asked about promoting masturbation to prevent young people from engaging in riskier sexual activity. "I think that it is part of human sexuality," Elders replied, "And perhaps it should be taught." She was forced to resign. Elders, 75, continues to address sexual health and education on the lecture circuit.

TROUTVILLE, Virginia (CNN) -- For the past year, Donna Chamberlain has worked at a fuel center here in Virginia's Roanoke Valley. It pays roughly half of what her old job did, but after being out of work for 14 months, she feels lucky to have it. Wachovia, which distributes the debit cards, would not comment on how much it receives for their use. Adding to her concerns, she and her husband, Steve, are now the custodial parents of their 7-year-old special-needs grandson, Cayden. The family needs every penny it can collect. So when state officials replaced the roughly $40-a-week child support check with a debit card, Donna read the fine print -- and left it on the table.

By Associated Press A 76-year-old man who fatally shot his unarmed teenage neighbor was sentenced to life in prison on Monday, days after telling the court he killed the boy for justice because he believed he stole his shotguns. John Henry Spooner's home had been burglarized two days before the May 2012 shooting, and he suspected 13-year-old Darius Simmons as the thief. So he confronted the teen, demanded that he return the guns and then shot him in the chest in front of his mother when he denied stealing anything. Spooner's own home surveillance cameras captured the shooting in Milwaukee and prosecutors aired the footage in court.

Netflix has agreed to stop 'shaming' Verizon on its website when streaming speeds begin to slow, but are adamant that load times depend on the internet provider and not their service. The announcement comes after Verizon sent the film and TV subscription service a cease-and-desist letter on Thursday, concerning a loading screen message that said its network was 'crowded' when videos failed to load immediately. Verizon's lawyers said the notice could be detrimental to business and claimed Netflix could not prove that its network was congested. But while Netlifx confirmed Monday that the notices will stop appearing from June 16, spokesman Joris Evers played down that the decision was solely concerned with Verizon's complaint.

Loggers were so upset about the book that some groups within the industry sponsored "The Truax," a similar book -- but from the logging point of view. Dr. Seuss' widow, Audrey Geisel, accepted his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2004. Another interesting fact: the book used to contain the line, "I hear things are just as bad up in Lake Erie," but 14 years after the book was published, the Ohio Sea Grant Program wrote to Seuss creator Theodore Geisel, and told him how much the conditions had improved and implored him to take the line out.

The sit-down with Winfrey is the 24-year-old's first since being cut from the St. Louis Rams and then dropped by the Dallas Cowboys, and she presses him on the other men in the NFL who have chosen not to come out.

Paul attempted to address critics that characterize his views as isolationist and was aiming to approach his speech Thursday from the perspective of a major, would-be @placeholder leader, rather than a lawmaker, a spokesman told CNN before the speech.

For the first time since facing an onslaught of criticism this year over his foreign policy views, Sen. Rand Paul spelled out his national security principles Thursday in a comprehensive speech. The Kentucky Republican, who's aggressively laying groundwork for a potential presidential campaign, sought to paint himself as a champion of "conservative realism," a doctrine that skates between the hawkish and dovish ends of the foreign policy spectrum. "Yes, we need a hammer ready, but not every civil war is a nail," he said in New York at the Center for the National Interest, a think-tank founded by former President Richard Nixon.

Istanbul (CNN) -- In a further escalation of tensions between Israel and Turkey, at least three Israeli diplomats are being expelled from the Israeli Embassy in Ankara, Israeli officials said Wednesday. The Israeli consulate, however, appears to be unaffected by the Turkish downgrade of diplomatic relations with Israel. "Consulates and embassies are not in the same status," said Ohad Kaynar of the Israeli consulate in Istanbul. "There are treaties that define what consulates are supposed to do. The personnel that are being expelled are from the embassy. As of now, we have not heard anything from the Turkish foreign ministry regarding expulsion of any of the consulate personnel."

During the assault Friday night in the town of Hostens, south of Bordeaux, one of the students suffered a serious injury after a glass bottle was thrown in her face, French authorities said. In France to study the making of wine, the six students were at home when they were attacked by three local residents who were "visibly in an inebriated state," French Interior Minister Manuel Valls said in a statement Saturday. He condemned the attack "with great severity," describing it as "xenophobic." Two of the suspected attackers have been questioned and taken into custody, he said.

But now that AT&T has joined the LTE game, consumers looking for top speeds might consider turning their focus to AT&T instead. If only for a while. Metrico Wireless, a firm that does network and mobile device analytics, took a look at 4G LTE service in the U.S., focusing on two of the nation's largest carriers, Verizon and AT&T.

Confusion: @placeholder workers initially thought that the power bar in Vanderklok's bag along with a heart-monitoring watch were a possible explosive device

A Pennsylvania architect says that two years ago airport security threw him in a jail cell for 23 hours because he wished to file a complaint when his search was taking too long, said a lawsuit for $75,000 in damages filed last week. Roger Vanderklok was at a security checkpoint at Philadelphia International Airport on January 26, 2013 hoping to fly to Miami to run a half-marathon when security mistook his Power Bars and his watch for a bomb and explosive device. Vanderklok claims that he complained when TSA official Charles Kieser and other staff searched his bag for 30 minutes without telling him what they were searching for.

Wichita, Kansas (CNN) -- In situations like the dire humanitarian crisis that has followed Tuesday's earthquake in Haiti, we all are forced to witness what is the sometimes painful truth behind the cliché about it taking a village to raise a child. In the tragedy unfolding before us now, it will take a global village. President Obama and former presidents, along with other leaders and representatives of humanitarian organizations, have reminded us of this. We would like to add our own small, humble contribution to the efforts under way around the world to help the people of Haiti. In particular, we would like to draw your attention to the many children who were living in Haitian orphanages when the earthquake hit. As we have heard from professionals devoted to children's issues, children are among the most vulnerable segments of a population subject to natural disasters and humanitarian crises. It is not hard to imagine that orphans living in institutional care might often be even more vulnerable.
