Enrique Tarrio, the former leader of the Proud Boys, was sentenced on Tuesday to 22 years in prison for the central role he played in organizing a gang of his pro-Trump followers to attack the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, and stop the peaceful transfer of presidential power. Until now, the longest prison term connected to Jan. 6 had been 18 years. That sentence was issued last week to Ethan Nordean, one of Mr. Tarrio’s co-defendants. The penalty imposed on Mr. Tarrio at a three-hour hearing in Federal District Court in Washington was the final sentence to be lodged against the five members of the Proud Boys who were tried on seditious conspiracy charges earlier this year. Three other men in the case — Joseph Biggs, Zachary Rehl and Dominic Pezzola — were each sentenced last week to between 10 and 17 years in prison.

Sentencing hearings for Enrique Tarrio and another Proud Boys leader in the Jan. 6 seditious conspiracy case were postponed Wednesday after the presiding judge called out sick, federal authorities told NBC News. Marshals Service told NBC that the sentencing was canceled because presiding Judge Timothy Kelly was sick. Ethan Nordean, a Proud Boys chapter leader who was set to be sentenced Wednesday afternoon, had his hearing rescheduled for Friday. Three of those co-defendants — Joseph Biggs, Zachary Rehl and Dominic Pezzola — have sentencing hearings scheduled for later in the week. Pezzola was the only one not found guilty of seditious conspiracy.

Paris CNN —Air France and Airbus have been found not guilty of involuntary homicide in a criminal trial over the 2009 crash of a flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris that killed 228 passengers and crew. The acquittal was confirmed in an abstract of the court’s ruling provided by the Paris prosecutor’s office. The court did find Airbus and Air France both liable for civil damages for certain failings, though they lacked a “tie of certain causality” with the accident. The 2009 crashMystery initially surrounded the crash of Air France flight 447, in part because it occurred while the plane was flying over the Atlantic Ocean. Problems with pitot tubes had affected Airbus aircraft in the past, but the company had not corrected the problem.

Walker / The Boston Globe via AP, PoolThe remains of Ana Walshe, 39, who was last seen around New Year's Day, have not been recovered. via Cohasset PoliceProsecutors also said that Brian Walshe searched Dec. 27 for “what’s the best state to divorce for a man” — and that “rather than divorce, it is believed that Brian Walshe dismembered Ana Walshe and discarded her body,” Beland said. Joseph Romano's lawyers filed to appeal the conviction in 2006 but were denied based on the strength of the circumstantial evidence, court records show. And the lack of a body most likely wouldn't serve as a mitigating factor in sentencing, Cevallos said: “A murder conviction’s a murder conviction."

The family lived down the street from the potter’s field where the boy was first buried, and placed flowers there on holidays. It’s a confluence of great detective work, cutting-edge science and the careful art of genealogical research, retired city detective William Fleisher said in his graveside remarks Friday. “It is a big part of our city’s history, a big part of the Philadelphia Police Department’s history. So this is everybody’s victory.”Police now believe the boy lived in West Philadelphia, miles across town from where his body was found. “This has been our whole lives, with this boy, our whole entire lives, since we were children,” said Kim Augustine, 56, Braxton’s sister.

Americanii doresc să elimine scena din „Singur Acasă 2” în care Donald Trump se întâlnește cu Macaulay CulkinDupă blocarea lui Donald Trump pe Twitter și pe majoritatea rețelelor sociale, un număr de utilizatori ai acestora au sugerat ca președintele american în funcție să fie tăiat și din filmul de cult „Singur Acasă 2” în care apare pentru câteva secunde, scrie The Independent. Utilizatorii au sugerat ca imaginea lui Trump să fie ștearsă digital din film, iar în locul lui să fie editat un cameo al lui Macaulay Culkin adult, acum în vârstă de 40 de ani. Actorul însuși s-a declarat încântat de idee, scrie digi24.ro. Chris Columbus, regizorul filmului, spunea anul trecut că Donald Trump a pus apariția sa în film drept condiție pentru ca scenele respective să poată fi filmate în hotelul său, pe lângă o sumă de bani plătită hotelului. În 1992, anul în care a fost lansată pelicula, Donald Trump era proprietarul acelui hotel.

☆ ‘Peter and the Wolf’ Review: Bono Meets Prokofiev

A still from ‘Peter and the Wolf’ Photo: MaxRussian composer Sergei Prokofiev passed away on March 5, 1953, an event that received very little news coverage— Joseph Stalin decided to die on the very same date. Stalin not only hijacked Prokofiev’s death day, he made the last years of the composer’s life (and the entire Soviet Union, one might argue) impossible, thus casting Prokofiev’s decision to return home, after years abroad, as one of the classical music world’s great unforced errors.
