Nacua’s jersey has been placed in football’s shrine to all things great and good because of the historic beginning to his rookie NFL season. An already high-ceiling group, which included Cooper Kupp – the NFL’s receptions, receiving yards and touchdowns leader in 2021 – was searching for additional explosiveness. It couldn’t be any better,” Nacau told reporters after the Rams’ Week 1 victory in Seattle against the Seahawks. Over the next five weeks of the season, Nacua compiled 326 receiving yards off 25 catches and a touchdown. Nacua has 293 more receiving yards than the next rookie in the league, Jordan Addison.

The letters were just the latest worrisome disruption for election workers in Seattle and across the country who have been besieged by threats, harassment and intimidation since the 2020 presidential election. Fulton County has been the target of conspiracy theories since the 2020 election, and its election workers have been harassed and threatened over false claims that they were stuffing ballots to aid Democrats. In Pennsylvania, officials estimate 40 of the state’s 67 county election offices have new directors or deputy directors since 2020. In North Carolina, where Republican lawmakers recently moved to gain more control of state and local election boards, roughly a third of 100 county election directors have left since the 2020 election. About 1 in 5 election workers knows someone who left their election job for safety reasons, and about 70% of local election officials said harassment has increased, according to a Brennan Center survey.

LANSING, Mich. (AP) — A Michigan judge is expected to decide Friday morning whether to drop charges against two defendants accused of participating in a fake elector scheme after the state attorney general said the group was “brainwashed” into believing former President Donald Trump won the 2020 election. Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, however, may have derailed the case by saying during a virtual event last month that the electors "legit believe" Trump won the election. But it's the only state where the accused false electors face criminal charges. At a Sept. 18 virtual event organized by liberal groups, Nessel said the group would never plea guilty because they “genuinely believe” Trump won the election. Henry and several others, including former Michigan GOP co-chair Meshawn Maddock, are scheduled to appear for a preliminary examination hearing on Oct. 12.

All 16 are facing eight criminal charges, including forgery and conspiracy to commit election forgery, that were first announced in July by state Attorney General Dana Nessel. Michigan is one of seven states where false Electoral College certificates were submitted declaring Trump the winner, despite confirmed results showing he had lost. On Sept. 18, Nessel, a Democrat, told a liberal group during a virtual event that the false electors had been “brainwashed” and “genuinely” believed Trump won in Michigan’. George MacAvoy Brown, an attorney for Henry, said in a statement that the charges require proof that Henry “intended to cheat or deceive someone” and that Nessel's comments show that wasn't the case. Henry and several others, including Maddock and Kathy Berden, Michigan’s Republican national committeewoman, are scheduled to appear for a preliminary examination hearing on Oct. 12.

Seen on a television screen, Amy Facchinello (L) is arraigned via Zoom in Ingham County District Court on August 10, 2023 in Lansing, Michigan. All 16 Michigan Republicans accused in a fake elector scheme to keep former President Donald Trump in power are challenging the charges, after the final nine either pleaded not guilty or had a judge enter the pleas on their behalf Thursday in state court. Seven entered not guilty pleas in previous court appearances. The court appearances in Michigan come one week after Trump pleaded not guilty in federal court to charges related to his effort to overturn the results of his 2020 election loss. Prosecutors say the former president, along with six unnamed co-conspirators, orchestrated a scheme to enlist fake electors in seven battleground states won by Democrat Joe Biden to submit false certificates to the federal government.

July 27 (Reuters) - A lawsuit filed on Thursday by former Michigan State University athletes victimized by Larry Nassar alleges that its trustees voted in secret to withhold thousands of documents related to the disgraced team doctor in violation of state law. The lawsuit asked the Ingham County Circuit Court to require the board to vote publicly on whether to release the documents or keep them confidential. MSU, Nassar's former employer, previously agreed to a near $500 million settlement with the hundreds of women who were sexually abused by Nassar. USA Gymnastics and the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee, with whom Nassar also worked as a team doctor, reached a $380 million settlement. Earlier this month, Nassar was stabbed multiple times by another inmate in prison and was in stable condition.

CNN —Former USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar, who was convicted of sexually abusing young athletes under the guise of medical treatment, was assaulted inside a federal prison in Florida, according to two sources familiar with the incident. Joe Rojas, president of the local correction officers’ union, told CNN Nassar was stabbed a total of 10 times – twice in the neck, twice in the back, and six times in the chest. Rojas says Nassar is in stable condition. In 2021, victims of Nassar reached a $380 million settlement with USA Gymnastics, the US Olympic Committee and their insurers. The settlement was part of the USA Gymnastics plan to exit bankruptcy as the organization has struggled to recover from the Nassar scandal.

Адвокат Бритни Спирс Сэмюэл Д. Ингхэм (Samuel D Ingham), представлявший интересы певицы в течение тринадцати лет, решил уволиться. Ингхэм являлся адвокатом Спирс с 2008 года и защищал ее интересы в рамках разбирательств, которые касаются опеки над ней. Адвокат уволился после того, как эмоциональное выступление артистки в суде привело к отставке ее менеджера Ларри Рудольфа, работавшего с ней с 1990-х годов. 23 июня текущего года Спирс в ходе судебного слушания потребовала, чтобы ее освободили от опекунства со стороны отца Джейми Спирса, которое длится с 2008 года. В материалах дела отмечалось, что суд признал Бритни Спирс «практически неспособной управлять своими финансовыми ресурсами или противостоять мошенничеству или ненадлежащему влиянию».

Britney Spears a adăugat că a vrut să îşi dea în judecată familia, pentru felul în care a fost tratată. În declaraţia ei, cântăreaţa a spus că tatăl, Jamie Spears, a controlat-o „100.000%” şi că vrea ca acest aranjament să se încheie. Jamie Spears a primit controlul asupra ei şi a afacerilor ei printr-un ordin judecătoresc în 2008, după ce Britney Spears a dat semne că ar avea probleme de sănătate mintală, însă anul trecut cântăreaţa a început procedurile pentru înlăturarea lui. „Vreau ca această tutelă să se încheie fără a fi evaluată”, a spus ea, numind aranjamentul „abuziv”.

Prin această moţiune a fost cerut Curţii să deschidă cazul tutelei lui Spears, sigilat ani buni la cererea tatălui ei, James Spears. În luna august, Britney Spears a cerut unei curţi de justiţie din California să nu fie repusă sub tutela tatălui ei, care a deţinut controlul asupra carierei şi averii cântăreţei timp de 12 ani, scrie News.ro. James Spears a fost tutorele legal al fiicei lui, acum în vârstă de 38 de ani, după ce ea a dat semne că ar avea probleme de sănătate mintală. Unii dintre fanii lui Spears cred că ea a fost forţată să accepte acel aranjament şi au demarat de anul trecut campania #FreeBritney. „Britney se opune ferm revenirii lui James ca tutore al ei”, se arată în documentele depuse la Curtea Superioară a Californiei.
