Former Marine gets 9-year Russian prison sentence over drunken assault he claims to not remember
The U.S. ambassador to Moscow called the conviction – and nearly decadelong sentence – 'a theater of absurd'
A 29-year-old American man who formerly served in the U.S. Marines was sentenced Thursday to nine years in a Russian prison over a drunken incident last summer he claims he cannot remember.
Trevor Reed, a student at the University of North Texas, was spending time in Moscow to learn Russian and visit his Russian girlfriend, when he went to a party with heavy drinking.
He was detained by officers Aug. 15 after leaving the party. Reed is accused of grabbing one officer as he was driving, causing the car to swerve dangerously, and elbowing the other – all of which the American claims he can’t remember because he was intoxicated. He was detained for nearly a year awaiting his trial.

UK women die from ‘DIY’ home abortions, leaked NHS emails reveal
One of the cases includes a murder investigation as the baby was 'live born'
A former abortion clinic worker in the United Kingdom said a leaked "urgent" email sent to National Health Service (NHS) staff suggests women are being harmed by abortion pills, now administered at home because of the coronavirus restrictions.
The Court of Appeal refused to consider the evidence Wednesday in a case brought by Christian Concern, a UK-based conservative legal nonprofit, arguing that the government's "DIY home abortion policy" in light of lockdown orders allows "dangerous" abortions and goes against the Abortion Act.

WHO promotes China’s organ transplant program, despite allegations of human rights abuses
WHO leadership has heaped praise on China's organ transplant program while ignoring alleged abuses, activists say
At a time when the relationship between the World Health Organization (WHO) and China is under intense scrutiny, human rights activists and health experts also are questioning the organization's stance on Beijing’s questionable organ donation program.
Earlier this year, the London-based China Tribunal determined that, “beyond a reasonable doubt,” hearts, lungs, kidneys and livers were being harvested from ethnic and religious minorities – sometimes while still alive and otherwise healthy.
