Authorities in Massachusetts have arrested a Boston-area man in connection with a murder-for-hire-plot in the 1992 slaying of an Army soldier, officials said Monday. Authorities said Watson killed Miller at the behest of Miller’s abusive partner, Daniel J. Innis. Miller was a mother of two, and Innis had threatened to take custody of her children, the DA said. Middlesex District Attorney's OfficeShe disappeared July 28, 1992, the day after telling a social worker that she intended to obtain a restraining order against Innis, Ryan said. “Her body was found two weeks later, partially naked, with her face covered by a blanket, in the filthy basement of an abandoned building in the Central Square neighborhood of Cambridge,” Ryan said.

Back in the 19th century, however, this county was at the center of an illegal trade in poitín – or Irish moonshine. Inishowen in particular was such a hive of illegal activity that the area was jokingly referred to as the Urris Poitín Republic. Fed up with the heavy fines, the people of Urris declared themselves the independent nation of the “Urris Republic of Poitín” and sealed themselves in by collapsing the pass in 1812, McLaughlin-Doherty explains. The townspeople were able to be self-sufficient because of their farmlands and fishing, thus allowing the Urris Republic of Poitín to last for three years before the coup was ended in 1815. The Catholic Church, a stronghold in Ireland, was instrumental in the eventual curbing of illegal poitín production.

BRUSSELS, Dec 22 (Reuters) - Online retailer Amazon (AMZN.O) may be deemed responsible for advertising of counterfeit Christian Louboutin shoes which found its way on to its platform, Europe's top court said in a preliminary ruling on Thursday. The EU court said it is now up to the two national courts to decide whether this is indeed the case. Louboutin brought two cases against Amazon in a Belgian and a Luxembourg court in 2019, saying the company regularly displayed advertisements for red-soled shoes put on the market without Louboutin's consent. Both courts had sought the guidance of the Luxembourg-based Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU). Thierry Van Innis, Louboutin's lawyer, said the European court had followed the designer's arguments "in every detail".
