Opinion | Is Missouri About to Execute an Innocent Man?
  + stars: | 2024-06-21 | by ( David French | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
On June 4, the Missouri Supreme Court set a September execution date for a man named Marcellus Williams. Williams is most likely innocent of the charges against him. On Aug. 11, 1998, a 42-year-old former Saint Louis Post-Dispatch reporter named Felicia Anne Gayle was found stabbed to death in her home. She’d been stabbed 43 times; her husband found her with the knife still in her neck. Despite the media coverage and the intense interest in the case, the murder went unsolved for 15 months, until the police charged Williams with the crime.

Janelle Monáe wears Nicole + Felicia at the 2024 pre-Grammy Gala. Gilbert Flores/Getty ImagesThough the two-piece set was custom-made for Monáe, Chang said it was inspired by the Nicole + Felicia F/W 2024 evening collection. Nicole + Felicia created a black bralette adorned with the brand's signature florals, a high-waisted skirt, and a rose-covered choker that extended down Monáe's back. "I think that's what made the whole gown really special," Chang said of the latter piece. And while floral embellishments are usually crafted from soft fabrics in pastel shades, Nicole + Felicia aimed to do something different.

A woman pleaded guilty on Wednesday to first-degree manslaughter for fatally shoving a beloved, 87-year-old Broadway singing coach last March in a bizarre act of random violence that shocked New Yorkers. The woman, Lauren Pazienza reached an agreement with the Manhattan district attorney’s office to serve eight years in prison and five years of post-release supervision. The judge in the case, Felicia A. Mennin, accepted the plea and scheduled a formal sentencing for Sept. 29. After pushing the singing coach, Barbara Maier Gustern, with whom she had no prior relationship, Ms. Pazienza returned to her home in Queens, mentioning to her then-fiancé, almost in passing, that she had pushed someone, prosecutors have said. Two days later, realizing that Ms. Gustern had been seriously injured and that the attack had received press coverage, she fled, first to her parents’ house on Long Island and then to her aunt’s house.

Why sex workers are protesting in Amsterdam
  + stars: | 2023-04-01 | by ( Jessie Gretener | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +8 min
The reduced hours come amid an ongoing campaign by the city council to move sex workers into an “erotic center” outside the heart of the city. She also spoke about welfare concerns for all sex workers, explaining how it could impact their ability to get home safely. A protest organized by sex workers interrupted a city council meeting on Thursday that was discussing location options for the proposed erotic center. Sex workers disagree, with Red Light United arguing that the erotic center could create an environment for more crime and “shady” behavior.
