Prosecutors in Mexico seeking arrest warrants for more than 30 scientists
Mexico’s scientific community has reacted with outrage after the country’s chief prosecutor requested arrest warrants for 31 scientists, researchers and academics on accusations of organised crime, money laundering and embezzlement – charges that could land them alongside drug cartel kingpins in one of the country’s most notorious lockups.
A judge at the maximum security Altiplano prison – from which JoaquĂn “El Chapo” Guzmán escaped in 2015 – denied granting the arrest warrants on Wednesday. But the federal prosecutor immediately announced plans to pursue arrest warrants for the third time.
The university professors have been accused of violating a law that prevents members of an advisory board from receiving money from a government science fund. But that law was passed in 2019, and the scientists got the $2.5m years earlier when it was apparently legal. Those involved have denied the funds were illegal or misused.

Whose kid is that? Dems want big changes in who qualifies for child tax break
Anyone caring for a child would be able to claim credit payments, not just relatives.
Supporters say that would make hundreds of thousands more eligible, but implementing the change could be daunting.
