A sheriff in rural southwest Georgia has been arrested on charges of sexual battery and violating his oath of office. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation says it arrested Miller County Sheriff Richard Morgan after the local district attorney asked its agents to look into allegations of sexual misconduct involving the sheriff. The agency said in a news release that the charges stemmed from an incident that took place during a 911 call, but gave no further details. The sheriff's office said Morgan wasn't available Friday and referred a reporter to an attorney representing him. Attorney Thomas V. Duck III did not immediately return a phone message seeking comment. The 54-year-old old sheriff is serving his second year in office.
The board of a Kansas school district rejected a proposed strategic plan after some members criticized its emphasis on diversity and students' mental health. The plan for the Derby school district was rejected this week after months of work from parents, students, employees and community members. The Kansas News Service reports four of the seven board members voted against adopting the five-year plan, a normally routine document that outlines the district's priorities and goals. Board president Michael Blankenship said the district should emphasize things that unite people, rather than focusing on diversity. Board member Pam Doyle supported the plan, saying the district should celebrate diversity.
Seven-time Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi was omitted from the 30-man list of nominees for the prestigious award. It's the first time since 2005 that the Argentina great didn’t make the short list. Messi edged out Poland striker Robert Lewandowski for the Ballon d’Or last year but wasn’t nominated this time after an underwhelming first season at Paris Saint-Germain. The 35-year-old forward also won the prize in 2019 — it was not held in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Neymar also missed the cut this time. Lewandowski, Kylian Mbappé, Karim Benzema, Erling Haaland and five-time winner Cristiano Ronaldo were all included, as were Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mané, Kevin De Bruyne, Harry Kane and Son Heung-min.
A judge has held Baltimore’s top prosecutor in contempt of court, finding she violated a gag order with a social media comment about a high-profile murder case. The Daily Record reports the judge fined State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby $1,500, but ruled she can avoid paying the fine by following a more restrictive gag order in coming months. Prosecutors have unsuccessfully tried Keith Davis Jr. for murder four times in the 2015 shooting death of a race track security guard. Mosby lost the Democratic primary to defense attorney Ivan Bates, who has said he believes the charges should be dismissed. Baltimore is heavily Democratic, and no Republican has filed to run in November.
Sepp Straka didn't have much reason for optimism at the start of the PGA Tour's postseason. He had missed the cut in six straight tournaments. And now he has the early lead after 36 holes in the FedEx St. Jude Championship. Straka opened with a 64 and birdied his last three holes of the second round for a 66. He was one shot ahead of Denny McCarthy. Among those playing in the afternoon is Tony Finau, who is one of golf's hottest players. There's also Scottie Scheffler. He's No. 1 in the world but needed a good round to make the cut.
GLENDALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug 12, 2022--
Colombia’s new government and members of the nation's last guerrilla group are moving toward restarting peace talks that were suspended three years ago in Cuba. After a meeting between both sides in Havana on Friday, Colombia’s national peace commissioner said the government will take the necessary “judicial and political steps” to make peace talks possible, such as lifting arrest warrants for members of the National Liberation Army delegation now living in exile in Cuba. Colombia’s previous government terminated the peace talks in 2019 after the rebels set off a car bomb at a police academy in Bogota and killed more than 20 cadets. Colombian authorities issued arrest warrants for ELN leaders in Cuba for the peace negotiations. But Cuba refused to extradite them.

Naomi Judd's family asks court to seal recorded interviews, other details from police investigation into singer's death.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation seized classified records — some marked top secret — from former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, according to a copy of the warrant seen by Bloomberg.
The family of country singer Naomi Judd filed a court petition to seal police reports and recordings made during the investigation into her death. The family said Friday the records contain video and audio interviews with relatives in the immediate aftermath of her death and releasing such details would inflict "significant trauma and irreparable harm.” Judd died at the age of 76 on April 30 at her home in Tennessee. The court filing also included details about how Ashley Judd found her mother alive after she shot herself. Ashley stayed by her mother’s side for 30 minutes until help arrived.

A respected snake researcher who’d been making significant discoveries about the species since childhood has died after being bitten by a timber rattler. William H. “Marty” Martin died Aug. 3 after being bitten by a captive snake on the property at his home in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. Martin was 80 years old and continued to make arduous mountain hikes to document and count snake populations in remote sites. Snake bite fatalities are extremely rare; the Centers for Disease Control estimates that about five people die in the U.S. from snake bites each year.
Bobby Wagner is still getting used to the fact he’s now working with Sean McVay, not against him. After five years of trying to shut down McVay’s offense two or three times per season for the Seattle Seahawks, Wagner is now making the Los Angeles Rams better. The Rams signed the 32-year-old Wagner to be the game-changing inside linebacker they’ve decidedly lacked in recent years. But they also signed the six-time All-Pro for the impact he’ll have across the organization, and the signs are already showing.

Best Buy, the nation’s largest consumer electronics chain, is trimming jobs in an effort to adjust to new changes in consumer behavior as the virus wanes. Best Buy declined to say how many jobs it was cutting but The Wall Street Journal, which was first to report the news, estimated it involved hundreds of jobs at the store level. The job cuts come after Best Buy reduced its annual sales and profit forecast late last month, citing surging inflation that has dampened consumer spending on gadgets. The Minneapolis-based company echoed Walmart, which a few days before said higher prices on basic necessities are forcing shoppers to cut back on discretionary items.
Republicans in Congress are not only defending Donald Trump against the FBI search of his Mar-a-Lago home. They're also capitalizing on it politically with grave and potentially dangerous rhetoric against the nation’s justice system. The Republicans are stirring up opposition to the FBI and tapping into political grievances and far-right conspiracies that fed the deadly Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. For the party that once stood staunchly for law-and-order, it’s a dramatic reversal. It's all part of an election year strategy to harness voter outrage over the unprecedented search and win Republican control of the House in the midterm elections.
A pipeline carrying diesel has cracked open and spilled more than 45,000 gallons of fuel in a rural area of eastern Wyoming. The ruptured line is owned by a company that’s being sued by federal prosecutors over previous spills in North Dakota and Wyoming. Joe Hunter with Wyoming's Department of Environmental Quality said Friday that cleanup work is ongoing from the spill that was discovered July 27 on private ranchland near the small community of Sussex. The line is operated by Bridger Pipeline, a subsidiary of Casper, Wyoming-based True companies. Federal prosecutors have alleged in a pending federal court case that previous spills on the companies' lines violated environmental laws.

The TV’s news director was detained but released on Thursday. Pakistan’s media regulatory body took the station off air and on Friday suspended its license.
