Georgia prosecutor investigating Trump indicates charging decisions to come in August

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who has been investigating efforts by Donald Trump and his allies to overturn the 2020 election in Georgia, announced remote workdays for her staff in August and asked judges to refrain from in-person hearings for parts of that month, according to a letter obtained by CNN. The letter, first reported by The New York Times, is the latest indication that Willis is likely to make her charging decisions public during that timeframe in August. She previously alerted law enforcement officials that she would announce whether anyone will face charges between July 11 and September 1. The letter outlines a handful of remote workdays for the district attorney's staff that span the first three weeks of August. "This remote work will red...

Court record: Wife says California doctor purposely drove family off cliff

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. (AP) — The wife of a California radiologist accused of trying to kill his family when he drove his Tesla off a cliff along the Northern California coast told rescuers her husband was depressed and needed a psychological evaluation, according to a newly unsealed search warrant affidavit. The San Francisco Chronicle reported Wednesday that Neha Patel repeatedly told rescuers that Dharmesh Patel intentionally drove off a San Mateo County cliff on Jan. 2 in a bid to kill her and their two children, ages 4 and 7. All four survived in what one official called an “absolute miracle.” Dharmesh Patel, a Pasadena radiologist, said he pulled off the road to check on a possibly flat tire, according to the warrant. Witness testimony does not appear to back up his account. “He dro...

Spread of abortion restrictions in South puts pressure on Virginia

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — South Carolina became the latest state to move toward a near total abortion ban Wednesday with legislation that if enacted would leave Virginia an outlier in the South as a place where women have unrestricted access to abortions amid a rapid rise in restrictions in the year since Roe v. Wade was overturned. South Carolina is among the last bastions in the region for those seeking legal abortions, but that status could end soon. Access would be almost entirely banned after about six weeks of pregnancy — often before women know they’re pregnant — under the bill that now must pass the state Senate, which previously rejected a proposal to nearly outlaw abortions but could give final passage next week. And most abortions after 12 weeks of pregnancy will be banned in North...

Photo of Biden was altered to suggest he touched a child inappropriately

CLAIM: A photo shows President Joe Biden touching a child inappropriately below the waist. AP’S ASSESSMENT: Altered photo. The photo was digitally altered to make it appear as if Biden’s hands were under the child’s shirt. The original photo, which was taken by an Associated Press photographer in 2021, shows the child stretching their shirt to show the president, who is pointing at the shirt in return. THE FACTS: Social media users are sharing a manipulated photo to suggest Biden inappropriately touched a child below the waist. The altered photo appears to show Biden kneeling in front of a child, with his hands underneath the kid’s gray shirt. The photo was shared on Instagram on Sunday with a caption above the photo that reads, “This is what people ‘voted’ for?” Social media users hav...

Norwegian officer found guilty of negligence over sinking of Navy frigate

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — The duty commander of a Norwegian Navy frigate that sank following a collision with an oil tanker in 2018 was found guilty of negligence Monday by a Norwegian court. The unidentified officer was given a 60-day conditional sentence by the Hordaland district court. He had denied the charge. ”He is disappointed with the outcome,” the lawyer for the 33-year-old officer, Christian Lundin, told Norwegian news agency NTB. NTB said the officer had been on duty for eight minutes on Nov. 8, 2018, when the 134-meter (442-foot) KNM Helge Ingstad collided with the Maltese-flagged oil tanker Sola TS, tearing a large hole in the frigate’s side in a harbor in Sture, north of Bergen. The frigate’s 137 crew were evacuated before the vessel sank. Eight people were slightly inju...

Mom of Virginia boy who shot teacher takes responsibility

NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (AP) — Four months after a 6-year-old Virginia boy shot and wounded his teacher as she taught class, an attorney for the boy’s mother said it still is not clear how the boy got the gun. Police have said Deja Taylor legally purchased the gun used in the Jan. 6 shooting and Taylor’s attorney, James Ellenson, has said she believed her gun was secured on a high closet shelf with a trigger lock. In an interview ABC’s “Good Morning America” aired Wednesday, Ellenson said no one knows how he got it. “People have talked to him about that, but I don’t know that any adult knows exactly how he got the gun,” Ellenson said. Taylor said her son has ADHD and while attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder might affect others mildly, she described her son as “off the wall,” saying he “...
