A Black man who was fatally shot four years ago by a now-fired white police officer in Columbus, Ohio, complied with commands and was wrongly killed as he walked out of a garage, prosecutors said Thursday. “Officer Coy was not justified in shooting Andre Hill,” prosecutor Renee Amlin told the jury. Hill then walked toward the officers while holding his cellphone when Coy fired his weapon. Detweiler said she and Coy walked toward the dark garage and had “no idea” why Hill was inside it. Columbus Mayor Andrew Ginther has said the shooting was unwarranted and that officers on the scene failed to provide medical assistance.

☆ Justice Department to defend DEI policy that threatens to derail Boeing deal

O’Connor set a deadline of Friday for the administration to explain its use of so-called DEI policies in that program. The diversity language used in the Boeing criminal plea deal has been around since at least 2018 – during the Trump administration, according to a person familiar with the policy. Still, it has become a key holdup as O’Connor mulls whether to approve the plea deal. Now, the court battle playing out in Texas will decide whether to allow Boeing to plead guilty as part of a deal with the Justice Department to resolve a criminal investigation stemming from plane crashes that killed 346 people. The issue first arose at an October 11 hearing in Fort Worth, where O’Connor worked through the routine details of the plea deal before taking a sharp detour to ask why the Justice Department included DEI considerations in choosing a monitor.

Fans of late One Direction member Liam Payne have launched a petition asking U.K. lawmakers to enact legislation that would “safeguard” artists’ mental health as they navigate the entertainment industry. The Change.org petition proposes new legislation — which they titled “Liam’s Law” — that would require artists to have access to mental health professionals, be given regular mental health checks and have adequate rest periods. Some management companies and agencies have begun to build out divisions to address their artists’ health, but not everyone, such as independent artists, has access to those resources. Still, Gleason said that there has been a “real-time” shift in the culture that has encouraged artists to prioritize their health. Day Kv said plans to bring the petition to her local members of Parliament (MPs) once it reaches 100,000 signatures.
