The St. Joseph Police Department, meanwhile, ignored evidence pointing to Michael Holman — a fellow officer, who died in 2015 — and the prosecution wasn’t told about FBI results that could have cleared Hemme, so it was never disclosed before her trials, the judge found.

Evidence presented to Horsman showed that Holman’s pickup truck was seen outside Jeschke’s apartment, that he tried to use her credit card, and that her earrings were found in his home.

So a cop was suspected in the murder but the PD framed an innocent woman?? Jfc.

Testing armed robot dogs in the Middle East instead of the US is pretty telling.

Can’t be accidentally murdering Americans with a software glitch.

I don’t understand why American has to go through this dumb-as-fuck pissing contest every year. For what? So whoever is in opposition can have a larger share of the pork barrel??

It’s unclear whether Boar’s Head will face any penalties by the USDA for the repeat issues.

We’ll waffle on penalties for Boar’s Head but immediately shut down a kid selling homemade ice cream.

What a fucked up world we live in.

The prosecution brought an envelope of bullets into the courtroom but had never notified the defense they had them. That would be a BIG fucking ‘nope’ in any court case.

If there’s a prize for the Best Headline of 2024 out there, this one should win the trophy.

I mean it’s just got everything going for it!

DNA might contain health information, but unlike a doctor’s office, 23andMe is not bound by the health-privacy law HIPAA. And the company’s privacy policies make clear that in the event of a merger or an acquisition, customer information is a salable asset. 23andMe promises to ask its customers’ permission before using their data for research or targeted advertising, but that doesn’t mean the next boss will do the same. It says so right there in the fine print: The company reserves the right to update its policies at any time. A spokesperson acknowledged to me this week that the company can’t fully guarantee the sanctity of customer data, but said in a statement that “any scenario which impacts our customer’s data would need to be carefully considered. We take the privacy and trust of our customers very seriously, and would strive to maintain commitments outlined in our Privacy Statement.”

Khan, who oversaw the FTC’s ban on noncompete agreements, has drawn the ire of corporate groups … saying Khan was against “almost anything” business wants to do to grow efficiently.

Riiiight. “Business growing efficiently” sounds like a really bad meme, with NDA and layoff texts covering the whole panel and Trump screaming “YOU’RE FIRED!!”

Big business can fuck right off.

The sheriff’s department commended the mail theft victim for contacting law enforcement so they could apprehend the suspects rather than attempting to contact them on her own.

They should have been congratulating her because she did their job for them.
