A suburban Philadelphia man has been accused of drugging at least five women and a teenage girl he met on a dating site and sexually assaulting them at his home while they were impaired, authorities said. Andrew Gallo of Levittown, Pennsylvania, was arrested Wednesday, the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office said. “This is a young woman’s worst nightmare,” Bucks County District Attorney Jennifer Schorn said at a news conference Wednesday announcing the charges. All of them described feeling strange after consuming the drinks, according to the criminal complaint and the district attorney’s office. Several items were collected during a search at Gallo’s home last month — including a bottle of tequila — and submitted for forensic analysis, according to the district attorney’s office.

☆ Delay in Trump's hush-money sentencing is a win for his campaign — and his wallet

Trump had requested the delay to avoid the "politically prejudicial" impact a public sentencing could have on the election. The sentencing might not happen at all if Merchan's next major hush-money decision, now due November 12, overturns Trump's verdict or the indictment itself on presidential-immunity grounds. But Trump would have had to suffer — in person — through the sentencing proceeding itself. Only after sentencing would Trump have faced the possible loss of his liquor licenses in New Jersey. Trump has fought to overturn his conviction on immunity-based challenges lodged in state court and in federal court.

Researchers have begun measuring the impact of legalized sports gambling on American households, and the initial results paint a worrisome picture about how its expansion has affected bettors’ finances. In separate papers released this month, academics have found that households in states where gambling was legalized saw significantly reduced savings, as well as lower investments in assets like stocks that are generally considered more financially sound. Meanwhile, states that legalized sports betting saw their residents’ aggregate credit scores decrease, while bankruptcies increased. North Carolina became the most recent state to offer online sports betting earlier this year. Earlier this year, the major sports betting platforms formed the Responsible Online Gaming Association to address problem gambling.
