☆ Violence by Prison Guards Rarely Punished by Federal Courts: BI Analysis
  + stars: | 2024-12-22 | by ( Hannah Beckler | Nicole Einbinder | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +37 min
That's how one California prisoner's case failed before the District Court for the Eastern District of California. Cases against corrections officers run into another set of challenges under the doctrine of "qualified immunity." In prisons, BI has found, qualified immunity has also protected corrections officers who have been accused of excessive force. After losing at the district court level, McCoy appealed and got a rare finding from the judges of the 5th Circuit. AdvertisementOver the same five years in BI's sample, no federal judge found for the plaintiff in a single excessive-force claim filed by a California prisoner.

☆ California law aiming to curb COVID misinformation blocked by judge

REUTERS/Mike Blake/File PhotoJan 26 (Reuters) - A U.S. judge has blocked a California law that sought to penalize doctors who spread "misinformation or disinformation" about COVID-19 while he considers a pair lawsuits challenging it on free speech grounds. "At no point has the State of California been able to articulate the line between permissible and impermissible speech." Under AB 2098, doctors can be disciplined for spreading misinformation about COVID, defined as "false information that is contradicted by contemporary scientific consensus contrary to the standard of care." They said that doctors who give harmful advice to patients are already subject to malpractice lawsuits and discipline under existing state law.

☆ Sherri Papini, who faked her own kidnapping in 2016, is sentenced to 18 months in prison
  + stars: | 2022-09-19 | by ( Antonio Planas | Https | Media-Cldnry.S-Nbcnews.Com Image Upload Newscms | ) www.nbcnews.com   time to read: +4 min
Sherri Papini, the California woman who pleaded guilty to faking her own kidnapping and lying about it to the FBI, was sentenced Monday to 18 months in prison. Prosecutors recommended last week that Papini be sentenced to eight months in prison. U.S. District Judge William Shubb sentenced Papini to prison time along with 36 months supervised release. Papini, a mother of two from Redding, was arrested more than five years after she was reported missing in November 2016. The government said an eight-month sentence would discourage Papini from ever trying such a scheme again and dissuade others from committing fraud.
