    Former Baltimore City State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby was out partying with friends, supporters and family members at an event located several miles from her home in Baltimore over the weekend despite being ordered by a judge to a year of home detention. Mosby was convicted on one count of mortgage fraud in February after she testified that she unintentionally made false statements on loan applications to buy two Florida vacation homes. In November, she was convicted of two counts of perjury by a federal jury after she falsely claimed financial hardship during the COVID-19 pandemic in order to withdraw money...

    A jury on Wednesday found a former Las Vegas-area Democratic politician charged with murder in the slaying of an investigative journalist who had written critical stories about him guilty. Jurors began deliberating Monday to determine if they agreed with prosecutors' claims that Robert Telles, 47, stabbed veteran investigative journalist Jeff German to death in September 2022, just months after German wrote stories critical of Telles and his workplace conduct, including allegations of an inappropriate romantic relationship with a female coworker. Las Vegas jurors deliberated for about four hours Monday before breaking for the evening. The panel of seven women and...

    “Migrant influencer” Leonel Moreno is having trouble coming up with the money for an attorney despite previously waving huge wads of $100 bills on social media, The Post has exclusively learned. Moreno boasted daily in TikTok videos about how much money he’d made from government welfare programs and begging on the streets before his March 29 arrest in Columbus, Ohio. He antagonized fellow migrants and regular Americans alike with incendiary statements such as, “That’s the difference between you and me. I’m always going to make lots of money without much work, and you’re always going to be exploited and miserable...

    During 1911 and 1912 E.H. Armstrong was studying for the degree of Electrical Engineer at Columbia University; he was not an especially brilliant student, in fact in many of his courses he did rather poorly. The writer knows because Armstrone was on of his students. The characteristics of alternating current machinery in general, did not prove very enticing to the young student, not because he was lazy or indifferent but because he had a hobby - and a vision. He was experimenting at his home with wireless apparatus and trying to find out how the three electrode audion of De...

    hicago is also being terrorized. There, professional criminals enlist migrants from the shelters to raid luxury stores at the suburban Oakbrook Center shopping mall, 20 miles west of downtown. These migrants wouldn't have a clue where Oak Brook, an upscale suburb, is, or how to get there without the criminal masterminds. South American gangs are turning suburban malls into danger zones, explains retired Riverside, Illinois, Police Chief Tom Weitzel. "You're at one of the suburban malls... pushing your kids in a stroller" and you can get caught in the violence, he said in an interview with Fox News. "A lot...

    My daughter just told me about a YouTube ad she was served that connected her to a scam website. That could imply that YouTube (and its owner Google) is coming under revenue pressure, possibly due to ChatGPT. ChatGPT has gotten much better in the past few months. I was given a demonstration Monday morning of how ChatGPT was able to write a Python script to test a fairly complex Python program that does advanced image processing. Someone in my company used the paid version of ChatGPT to write the script in just a few seconds; it would have taken him...

    Tantrum City, a rage room that opened in April 2021 in North Syracuse, has closed its doors. “We will be closing our doors effective immediately due to unforeseen circumstances. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you,” Tantrum City posted on its Facebook page on Wednesday. The business was located on the corner of Taft Road and Route 11, and was previously home to ShamROCK’s Rock and Roll Irish Pub. Tantrum City provided weapons (bats, crowbars, golf clubs and sledgehammers) and items to smash, like electronics, glassware, knick-knacks and car parts to release steam and throw adult temper tantrums....

    Apple’s smart watch could be banned from being imported into the United States after the federal government ruled that it violated a company’s patent, according to a report. Certain models of the Apple Watch are in violation of a patent that was issued to Masimo, a medical tech firm that created a sensory device that measures blood oxygen levels. The US International Trade Commission ruled in favor of Masimo on Thursday and determined that Apple was indeed in violation of a patent, according to The Wall Street Journal. President Joe Biden’s administration will have 60 days to decide whether to...

    Simmons said he has had no contact with Russell since learning the abduction was fake and he doubts he will ever know why she did it. “I’m confused, like what happened? What made you do this? I don’t understand,” Simmons said on the video, which is part of a podcast he and a friend have launched. “If you really wanted to tell me the truth, you could have told me. You could have told me before all this happened, before the police conference came out,” Simmons said. The two went to New York a week or so before she disappeared,...
