The family of Desaver Hollis, a Black man shot and killed by Richfield police last month, are questioning the police’s narrative after viewing the body-worn camera footage.

Richfield police officers shot and killed Hollis, 27, on April 29 after identifying him as a suspect in a reported theft from a vehicle. Video released by the city of Richfield on Monday appears to show Hollis shoot Sgt. Mario Leon in the hand before Leon and Sgt. Kristian Schultz returned fire at least 20 times, including while Hollis was on the ground.

How a Troubles ruling could impact court's definition of a woman
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cm2pz4r4kk8o

tld;dr
Something happened in Bongland; troons seething.

A recent ruling by the Supreme Court has made it harder to use Northern Ireland's Brexit deal to bring human rights challenges against the government.

The case concerned the last Conservative government's plan to allow immunity for some Troubles-related crimes.

The Labour government dropped that plan, but still wanted the court to clarify the scope of the human rights aspect of the Brexit deal. The government won a partial victory which could have a much wider impact.

It is likely to be significant in deciding whether the 2025 Supreme Court ruling on the definition of a woman applies in Northern Ireland in the way it does in the rest of the UK.

What has the NI Brexit deal got to do with human rights?
The deal, known as the Windsor Framework, is mostly about trade but also includes an important human rights element.

Article 2 of the framework commits the UK not to water down human rights provisions, underpinned by EU law, that flow from the Good Friday Agreement.

It means a citizen's rights in NI which are derived from EU law should not be diminished as a result of the UK's withdrawal from the EU.

Since Article 2 came into effect in 2021 it has featured in Northern Ireland court cases tackling some of the most controversial areas of public policy: abortion, immigration and the legacy of the Troubles.

What has its impact been?

It has been significant, particularly since 2024 when the High Court in Belfast ruled Article 2 has "direct effect".

That means that individuals can use Article 2 in the UK courts to challenge and potentially dis-apply, or strike-down, UK laws.

Trump Offers U.S. Citizenship to 32 Million Venezuelans

>Taking another zany plan by the president seriously because he cannot possibly do so.
>President Donald Trump suggested earlier this week that Venezuela should be annexed by the United States. He reportedly told Fox News correspondent John Roberts—not to be confused with the chief justice—that he was “seriously considering a move to make Venezuela the fifty-first state.”

>This is a far-fetched idea, to say the least. Venezuela has no interest in voluntarily becoming a U.S. state, as its acting President Delcy Rodríguez told reporters on Monday. “We will continue to defend our integrity, our sovereignty, our independence, our history,” she said, adding that Venezuela was “not a colony, but a free country.”

>U.S. forces managed to infiltrate the country and arrest former President Nicolás Maduro earlier this year, which led to Rodríguez’s interim presidency. Trump suggested in January that the U.S. would play some kind of administrative role over the country after capturing Maduro, but no such direct control appears to exist. Venezuela retains every functional attribute of sovereignty.

>I would welcome anyone to join the United States, so long as they do so freely, voluntarily, and democratically, and so long as they agree to live under the Constitution and its principles. I would not support the forcible annexation of any country or territory to the U.S. under any circumstances. If the Trump administration sought to seize any territory by force or coercion, the next Democratic president would be legally and morally obligated to return it to its previous status.

Wholesale inflation jumps 6% in April on annual basis, biggest increase since 2022

No.1514754 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
The producer price index rose a seasonally adjusted 1.4% for the month, much higher than the 0.5% Dow Jones consensus forecast and the upwardly revised 0.7% March increase.

Energy was at the root of the unexpectedly high gain in producer prices, though there was evidence that the price pain is extending beyond the gas pump.

The services index accelerated 1.2%, the biggest gain since March 2022. Two-thirds of the move was attributed to a 2.7% gain in trade services, a sign that tariff costs could be starting to have a larger impact on prices.

Stabbing Victim Handcuffed for Racism, Dies

No.1515218 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
https://www.msn.com/en-in/news/India/sikh-man-stabbed-university-student-18-to-death-with-an-eight-inch-ceremonial-knife-court-hears/ar-AA23cmA9

A university student died after being repeatedly stabbed by a man armed with a Sikh ceremonial sword, a court heard.

Finance student Henry Nowak, 18, was on his way home from a night out when he was allegedly attacked by stranger Vikrum Digwa, 23, with the eight inch 'Shastar' blade.

Digwa was caught on camera saying 'I am a bad man' before the fatal attack, jurors were told.

He is now on trial accused of murder alongside his mother Kiran Kaur, 53, who is accused of assisting an offender.

Prosecutors said she went to the scene before running home with the knife to stash it among an 'arsenal of weapons' there. They both deny the charges.

Southampton Crown Court heard Mr Nowak was in his first term studying accountancy and finance at Southampton University when he went for a night out in the city on December 3, 2023 with friends from his football team.

The teenager went home at around 11pm and having 'drunk less than the legal limit to drive'.

Jurors were told he was speaking to friends on Snapchat when he came across Digwa.

After he was stabbed Mr Nowak tried to climb a fence to escape but Digwa was 'aggressively pursuing' him, leaving a trail of blood, the court heard.

Police were called to the scene but arrested Mr Nowak after Digwa claimed he had been racially abused.

Mr Nowak was then handcuffed before passing out and dying in the street a short time later.

Prosecutor Nicholas Lobbenberg KC said: 'Put simply, Henry drowned in his own blood with his lung having been cut by the knife going eight centimetres into him.

'Vickrum Digwa raises the defence of self defence. He persisted that Henry perpetrated a drunken racist attack. He says he doesn't recall exactly how the fatal wound came to be inflicted.'

US Supreme Court formally reinstates pro-Republican Texas voting map

No.1509811 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/us-supreme-court-formally-reinstates-pro-republican-texas-voting-map-2026-04-27/
WASHINGTON, April 27 (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court formally reinstated on Monday a redrawn Texas electoral map that was designed to add more Republicans to the U.S. House of Representatives, as President Donald Trump's party seeks to keep control of Congress in the November congressional elections.
The move by the court, which has a 6-3 conservative majority, formalizes an interim decision it made in December to revive the map of U.S. House districts in Texas.
The reinstated map - sought by Trump, approved in August 2025 by the Republican-led state legislature and signed by Republican Governor Greg Abbott - could flip as many as five currently Democratic-held U.S. House seats to Republicans.
As they did in December, the court's three liberal justices dissented from Monday's ruling.
The Supreme Court reversed a lower court's decision that had blocked Texas from using the map. The lower court had found the map to be likely racially discriminatory in violation of U.S. constitutional protections. Trump last year prodded Republican lawmakers to redraw state congressional maps to bolster his party's chances in the midterms.
The Supreme Court in February allowed California to use a new electoral map designed to give Democrats five more congressional seats after that Democratic-led state redrew its House districts in response to the action by Republicans in Texas.
Republicans currently hold slim majorities in both chambers of Congress. Ceding control of either the House or Senate to the Democrats in the upcoming elections would endanger Trump's legislative agenda and open the door to Democratic-led congressional investigations targeting the president.

Judge orders Trump, DOJ to justify why president's $10B IRS lawsuit should proceed

No.1509763 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
https://abcnews.com/Politics/judge-orders-trump-doj-justify-presidents-10b-irs/story?id=132365447
A federal judge is raising concerns about whether Donald Trump's attempt to sue the IRS for $10 billion can proceed, signaling she could throw out the case because the president oversees the government entities he is suing.

Judge Kathleen Williams raised the issue in an order on Friday denying a request to delay the case amid possible settlement talks.

She noted that Trump and the defendants -- the Treasury Department and IRS -- may not be "sufficiently adverse" to one another for the case to proceed.
"Moreover, although President Trump avers that he is bringing this lawsuit in his personal capacity, he is the sitting president and his named adversaries are entities whose decisions are subject to his direction. Indeed, President Trump's own remarks about this matter acknowledge the unique dynamic of this litigation," she wrote.

Williams ordered both Trump's lawyers and the Department of Justice to submit briefs about why the case should proceed and set a hearing for next month. For the case to proceed, Trump's lawyers and the DOJ need to establish that the lawsuit is "a dispute between parties who face each other in an adversary proceeding."

"Typically, adverseness is found in a situation where one party is asserting its right and the other party is resisting," she noted.

But with Trump in charge of the very government entities he is suing, Williams noted that the required adverse relationship between the parties may not exist. She added that Trump has signed multiple executive orders tightening the president's control over the executive agencies like the Department of Justice.
