An 11-month-old baby died after being accidentally shot in the head by a toddler inside a parked car in San Antonio on Monday, police said. San Antonio Police Chief William McManus said in a press conference on Monday that three children — ages three, two, and an 11-month-old — were in the car with a woman. One of the older children got ahold of a long gun that was located in the back of the vehicle and accidentally shot the infant, McManus said. "What we have here today is a terrible, terrible tragedy," McManus said. Hutton said Lang's family recently moved to San Antonio and is searching for a new home and work to "rebuild their lives."

Matthew Perry’s mom, Suzanne Morrison, is speaking out almost a year since the “Friends” star’s death. In an intimate interview with Today's Savannah Guthrie, Morrison recounted the tender moments she had with her son before his death. “He went through a period, interestingly enough, just before he died when he was showing me one of his new houses,” she said. According to the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s Office, the actor died of acute effects of ketamine. Perry’s autopsy report stated that his last known treatment was a week and a half prior to his death.

☆ 2 swing states show why the US is struggling to build enough houses
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-25 | by ( Eliza Relman | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +8 min

Two swing states — Arizona and Pennsylvania — exemplify in their own ways how housing markets across the country have failed to address the key issue they face: too few homes. Sprawling subdivisions helped accommodate the growing population and were enough to keep housing costs relatively low through the early 2010s. As demand spiked, snarled supply chains helped inflate construction costs. Home prices have risen 39% since January 2020, Horowitz noted, even though the state's population is shrinking. Like many other states, Pennsylvania has underbuilt housing since the 2008 financial crisis, which tanked the housing market.

"I don't think people realize this shortage of housing that we have affects everything," added his brother Jonathan Scott. Why there's a housing shortageAs of mid-2023, there's a housing shortage of 4 million homes, according to the National Association of Realtors. While there have been recent signs of improvement for housing supply, it's not enough to solve the underlying constraint in the U.S. housing market.

In “The King’s Jester,” Minhaj tells a story about how he was mailed an envelope of white powder which he accidentally spilled on his infant daughter. Minhaj revealed to The New Yorker that his daughter never came in contact with the powder and was never hospitalized. An envelope with white powder was mailed to his house, however, which eventually inspired the joke. But after The New Yorker interview published a month later, it was reported that Comedy Central had opened up the search beyond Minhaj.

Take Los Angeles, where about three-quarters of residential-zoned land in 2021 was zoned exclusively for developing single-family housing. This country needs to build more homes, but there's no reason all those new homes need to look the same. Tokyo has homes in all shapes and sizes: detached single-family homes, attached row houses, small apartment buildings, midsize apartment buildings, and colossal residential high-rises. Allow apartment buildings with one staircase: Making it legal to build more apartment buildings with only one staircase would substantially reduce construction costs and allow for apartment buildings to be built on smaller lots. People who really like single-family homes should still have access to single-family homes.

☆ Housing affordability: Kamala Harris wants to take on corporate landlords and rent increases
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-21 | by ( Samantha Delouya | Rachel Wilson | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +6 min

While rent prices are undoubtedly rising, it’s unclear how much of the jump is due to corporate investors who buy up multiple properties. “Community after community feels taken advantage of by Wall Street investors and corporate landlords who have bought thousands of single-family homes during recent downturns,” Harris’ policy platform reads. A CNN analysis found that rent increases recently outpaced wage growth in cities with a meaningful presence of big investors. Ownership by corporate landlords, which CNN calculated by combining limited liability entities, real estate corporations and real estate investment trusts, stood at 16%. The number of single-family homes under construction dramatically decreased after the 2008 financial crisis, and construction never really returned to pre-recession levels.

As Election Day approaches, the campaigns are putting significant time and attention toward courting Black men, seen as a crucial — and potentially movable — voting bloc in a tight presidential race. However, that number drops to 68% for Black men under 50, compared to 21% who support Trump. “It’s very important to not operate from the assumption that Black men are in anybody’s pocket,” she said during an interview with the National Association of Black Journalists in September. For Trump’s part, efforts to reach Black men voters through campaign surrogates or Trump himself have lessened in recent months. Bartell also pointed to Kevin Cooper, a Black man on death row for killing a white family, as well as marijuana convictions of Black men.

CNN —Texas death row inmate Robert Roberson sat praying in a cell Thursday night, just feet from the execution chamber where he was set to die by lethal injection for the “shaken baby” death of his toddler. Just over 90 minutes before Roberson’s execution was set to begin, the House committee was able to secure a temporary restraining order against the state, pausing the execution. Roberson’s case is called into questionAdvocates for Roberson insist the diagnosis that his daughter died from shaken baby syndrome is inaccurate and has been discredited. Shaken baby syndrome is accepted as a valid diagnosis by the American Academy of Pediatrics and supported by child abuse pediatricians who spoke with CNN. Since 1992, courts in at least 17 states and the US Army have exonerated 32 people convicted in shaken baby syndrome cases, according to the National Registry of Exonerations.
