Last week, those same jurors found Ronald Lopez Andrade guilty of raping and later killing 30-year-old Yaimi Guevara Machado. Late Wednesday evening, despite not all jurors considering the crime to be heinous, atrocious, or cruel, in an 8-4 vote they still recommended death as a potential punishment. As for the criminal trial, Lopez Andrade will have another hearing later this year where the judge will have the ultimate say on sentencing. This is the second time this year a Miami-Dade jury has recommended death. In an 8-4 vote, jurors recommended a death sentence for Ysrael Granda, a man found guilty of ordering to kill his ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend.

The Coast Guard said it sent an HC-144 airplane and an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter to help. A Royal Caribbean spokesperson said that a search-and-rescue operation was immediate launched and that it is working with local authorities.

Liam Payne, the former One Direction singer, had multiple drugs in his system when he fell to his death from a hotel balcony in Argentina's capital Buenos Aires, several local and international news outlets have reported. An initial toxicology report revealed the British singer, who died aged 31, had drugs in his system at the time of death including “pink cocaine,” according to a report from ABC News on Monday, which cited sources. Despite its name, law officials say "pink cocaine" rarely has any cocaine in it and the pink comes from food coloring. A memorial for Liam Payne outside Casa Sur Hotel in Buenos Aires on Monday.

Israel had a right to retaliate, and the fact that Hamas refuses to stop fighting gives Israel the right to continue fighting. The nightmare of Gaza was started by Hamas and can be finished by Hamas.

Opinion Guest Essay The 21 Slivers of America That Could Decide the Election Sebastian Siadecki for The New York TimesIn almost every presidential battleground state, polling suggests something close to a dead heat between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. For Ms. Harris and Mr. Trump, each could be a crucial building block in a winning swing-state coalition. In 2016, with Mr. Trump in the race, these areas began to march to national trends: Rural areas trended Republican, while Milwaukee’s well-off, close-in suburbs zoomed left. Still, loyalties remain potent in Wisconsin, from Democratic-leaning, ancestrally Scandinavian voters in the state’s rural west to middle-class suburban Republicans outside Milwaukee. Mr. Trump lost Nash County by just 0.2 points in 2020 and Wilson County by three points.
