California legislator fighting to help statutory rapists avoid sex offender registry

 

Now Wiener is on the march again. This time, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, the Democrat is utilizing the final weeks of the legislative session to rally supporters behind SB145, a bill he introduced in 2019 that “stalled” in committee. Wiener’s law would permit “judges discretion over sex-offender registration in all cases involving voluntary intercourse between teenagers 14 to 17, who cannot legally consent, and adults who are less than ten years older.” Wiener wants to decriminalize gay intercourse between adults and minors in certain cases, claiming that California’s current laws discriminate against the LGBT community.

 

According to Wiener, the current law is “horrific homophobia” and “ruins people’s lives.” He told the San Francisco Examiner, “It makes no sense. It disproportionately impacts LGBTQ people because LGBTQ people are far less likely to be engaging in penile, vaginal intercourse.” He also complained that he was being targeted by right-wingers and conspiracy theories for his advocacy, without noting that perhaps some people might oppose giving some sex offenders a pass. But this is California, so Wiener is in all probability pushing at an open door.

SHANGHAI (Reuters) - China's biggest river, the Yangtze, and several of its tributaries have risen to dangerous levels after days of heavy rain, forcing tens of thousands of people from their homes and triggering an unprecedented emergency response alert

 

China has seen unusually high levels of rain this flood season, with southwest and central regions in the Yangtze river basin bearing the brunt of flooding.

 

The Ministry of Water Resources said on Monday that 38 tributaries on the upper reaches of the Yangtze were now higher than their warning levels, 19 dangerously so.

 

The southwestern province of Sichuan, which includes a major upstream section of the Yangtze, has raised its flood emergency response to its highest level, the first time it has ever done so, with its rivers overflowing and villages and farmland inundated.

Ron Meyer leaving NBCUniversal after admitting to settlement over affair

 

NBCUniversal ousted Vice Chairman Ron Meyer Tuesday after he admitted to settling a lawsuit with a woman with whom he’d had a brief “consensual affair.”

 

In a statement, Meyer said he disclosed the deal — which he made “under threat” — to his family and the company because it had led “other parties” to try and extort him.

 

“Based on Ron’s disclosure of these actions, we have mutually concluded that Ron should leave the company, effective immediately,” NBCU CEO Jeff Shell said in a statement that described Meyer’s behavior as “not consistent with our company policies or values.”

 

Meyer’s hasty exit brought an end to his 25-year career at NBCUniversal. His statement offered scant details about his settlement with the unnamed woman, other than that their brief and consensual affair took place “many years ago” and that she had made “false accusations” against him.

 

People who learned about the settlement have “continuously attempted to extort me into paying them money” by threatening to publish false claims about Meyer or falsely implicate NBCUniversal in the ordeal, he said.

 

“I regret what has happened and I am sorry for all the people in my life I may have let down, especially and most importantly, my family,” Meyer said.
