In Hollywood, actor Kevin Bacon is a big star. In Wisconsin's Kenosha County, Kevin Bacon is one big pig! The 450-pound porker wandered from his pen last week then moseyed on down the road, where he was caught hamming it up on the Molgaard family's security camera. He called a farmer friend, who not only knew the pig's owner but had his phone number. About a mile and 2 1/2 hours later — by the glow of a flashlight in the darkness — Kevin Bacon was led safe and sound back into his pen.

Prosecutors charged Penny with manslaughter after he killed Jordan Neely on the New York subway in April.

Another candidate, Vivek Ramaswamy, donated $10,000 to Penny's fundraiser, The Associated Press reported.

Abbott’s pardon announcement came after he was goaded to do so by figures on the right – from Fox News host Tucker Carlson to the chairman of the Texas Republican Party to Kyle Rittenhouse. There are conflicting accounts as to whether Foster pointed his weapon at Perry or Perry made the first move. They are rioting outside my apartment complex.” Defense attorneys said that Foster had threatened Perry by pointing his gun at Perry. Then Carlson and others on the right began to pressure Abbott to issue a pardon, because they didn’t agree with the verdict. On his Fox News show on Friday night, Carlson called on Abbott to pardon Perry, arguing that the defendant had acted in self-defense – despite the jury rejecting that argument.
A jury unanimously convicted Perry on murder charges on Friday. Greg Abbott on Saturday said he will work "swiftly" to pardon an Army sergeant who was recently convicted of shooting and killing a Black Lives Matter protester. Daniel Perry for the shooting death of Garrett Foster, 28, at a 2020 Black Lives Matter protest in Austin, Texas. Perry then shot Foster five times with a revolver before driving away, the American-Statesman reported. "I look forward to approving the board's pardon recommendation as soon as it hits my desk," Abbott said in Saturday's tweet.
The men’s defense lawyers asked a judge to rule the geofence warrant unconstitutional and throw out any evidence that came from it. Last March, a federal judge in Virginia ruled that a geofence warrant used to find a suspect in a bank robbery was unconstitutional. In September, a state court in San Francisco ruled against the use of a geofence warrant in a burglary investigation. Law enforcement agencies may then try workarounds, like teaming up with agencies in jurisdictions that lack restrictions. “This is a tool that law enforcement is hellbent on using, and I understand why,” Owsley said.
A software developer found over 137,000 people paid for Twitter Blue, the New York Times reported. The typical Twitter Blue subscriber had 560 followers and many were far-right accounts.

Musk's Twitter Blue subscription rollout has been marked by chaos the past month. On Monday, Musk said the Twitter Blue relaunch is on hold till the platform can resolve impersonation issues with "high confidence."

Jury selection began Monday in the Manhattan district attorney’s prosecution of the Trump Organization for tax fraud. The trial judge may be tempted to eliminate anyone who acknowledges having formed some opinions before trial about Trump personally or the evidence reported in the media against the Trump Organization. But in March, the Supreme Court reinstated Tsarnaev’s death sentence, arguably changing jury selection for the worse. In the Black Lives Matter era, we have seen several high-profile trials that challenged the search for impartial jurors. And it’s not a standard that should be employed as jurors are vetted in the New York criminal trial of the Trump Organization.

Când un polițist l-a oprit în apropierea limitei dintre Wisconsin și Illinois, acesta a văzut „că șoferul era culcat și nu se uita la drum”, se spune în comunicat, potrivit CNN. Polițistul a urmărit mașina Tesla pe o distanță de aproximativ 3 kilometri, cu girofarul și sirena activate, înainte ca șoferul să-și dea seama că este vizat. ”Te-am urmărit vreo două mile și dormeai”, se poate auzi pe înregistrarea camerei polițistului. El a mai spus că se îndrepta spre serviciu atunci când a fost oprit. Polițiștii i-au dat șoferului o amendă pentru conducerea neatentă și au dispus remorcarea autoturismului Tesla sub pretextul că șoferul nu poate opera vehiculul.

In each Week 1 contest, there was also a pregame playing of the hymn "Lift Every Voice and Sing," which is known as the Black National Anthem.
