A white Connecticut state trooper was acquitted of all charges Friday in the death of Mubarak Soulemane, a Black 19-year-old community college student who was shot as he sat behind the wheel of a stopped stolen car holding a kitchen knife and apparently in the throes of a mental health crisis.
Trooper Brian North, 33, could have faced up to 40 years in prison if he had been convicted of first-degree manslaughter in the Jan. 15, 2020, shooting. The state’s inspector general said the shooting shouldn’t have happened because North and other officers were not in imminent danger. But the six-person jury in Milford acquitted him on that charge and two lesser counts: second-degree manslaughter and negligent homicide.

Experts war-gamed what might happen if deepfakes disrupt the 2024 election. Things went sideways fast.
“It was jarring for folks in the room to see how quickly just a handful of these types of threats could spiral out of control and really dominate the election cycle,” said one of the organizers.

High in the skies over Lop Buri, Thailand, soldiers from Royal Thai, Japanese, and U.S. special forces come together for a special airborne jump, showcasing the strength of allied cooperation and friendship.
The Haitian oligarchy colludes with the U.S., Canada, foreign corporations, and organized crime to exploit the labor and resources of the country. These families pick “black faces” to front dictatorships that do their bidding and kill them when they are no longer useful.
Ariel Henry was appointed prime minister after the 2021 assassination of President Jovenel Moïse, but he is currently stranded outside the country after a trip to Kenya, where he was seeking a U.N.-backed security force to help him maintain power. For more, we speak with Haitian American scholar Jemima Pierre, who says the unrest in Haiti today can be traced to decisions made two decades ago by the United States and other outside powers. “The root of this crisis is not last week, it’s not this week, it’s not even Ariel Henry. But we have to go back to 2004 with the coup-d’état,” says Pierre. She adds that because successive security plans have been sanctioned by the United Nations Security Council, “the whole world is participating in the occupation of Haiti unwittingly.”

'King Charles is NOT dead': British embassy in Moscow issues furious denial after Russian media shared fake Buckingham Palace statement claiming Monarch 'passed away unexpectedly yesterday afternoon'
A host of Russian news sites today reported the King had died aged 75
The British embassy in Moscow was today forced to give an official statement confirming King Charles III is still alive after Russian media claimed he had died.
A host of Russian news sites and their associated social media accounts reported earlier today that the King had died aged 75 as a result of cancer complications, citing unnamed 'media' sources in an inexplicable stream of posts.
It came as an image of a clearly fake statement from 'Buckingham Palace' reporting Charles' 'unexpected death' was circulated on social media.
'King Charles III of Great Britain has died at the age of 75, according to media reports,' Russian newswire Sputnik reported.
'There is no information about this on the royal family website or in the British media.'
Minutes later their stories were updated after they were forced to climb down following reports the King was in fact not dead.
The British embassy in Moscow then furiously posted on X: 'Reports of the death of King Charles III of Great Britain are fake!'
The British Embassy in Kyiv followed soon after with a statement that read: 'We would like to inform you that the news about the death of King Charles III is fake.'
Several prominent outlets reported the bogus news but it was not immediately clear whether they had made an error or whether Vladimir Putin's propaganda machine was directly behind it.
The sick stunt involving the monarch followed criticism in Britain and other Western countries of Vladimir Putin's election 'victory' in a 'rigged' presidential election.
The British embassy's Telegram channel posted a notice in Russian to stress the reports were fake.
'Reports about the death of King Charles III of Great Britain are fake,' said the announcement, shortly after the British Embassy in Ukraine issued a similar message.
Early outlets running the fake report were RIA, Sputnik, Readkovka and Mash - staunchly pro-Putin outlets - but all later corrected their stories.
Mash media outlet wrote: 'Britain's King Charles III has died, Buckingham Palace reports. The son of Elizabeth II ascended the throne less than a year ago - the coronation took place on May 6, 2023. He was 75 years old.'
It updated to say 'the message turned out to be fake' while adding: 'Let us remember that a few months ago he was diagnosed with cancer.'
But the outlet later stated: 'The fake news about the death of Charles III quickly spread and was just as quickly debunked.
'The King of Great Britain is alive and continues to go about his business. At least that's what Buckingham Palace says.'
Even Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov's spokeswoman Maria Zakharova joined the fray, posting: 'London looks pathetic.'
Pro-Kremlin BAZA online media posted: 'The Russian media reported the death of British King Charles III with reference to a document allegedly published by Buckingham Palace.
'The screenshot of the message about the death of Charles III turned out to be fake.'
The fake palace announcement was dated today and said: 'The King passed away unexpectedly yesterday afternoon.'
Independent outlet Meduza stated: 'A number of media and Telegram channels reported the death of the British King Charles III - with reference to a fake statement from Buckingham Palace.
'A screenshot of the statement, which became a news source, is provided, in particular, by the BAZA Telegram channel.
'This statement is not on the website or social networks of the royal family.'
Russian state news outlet RIA Novosti corrected its earlier report while admitting it was based on 'rumours', stating: 'The press service of Buckingham Palace denied RIA Novosti rumours about the death of King Charles III.
'He continues to conduct official and private affairs.
'Information about Charles' death appeared some time ago in many Russian sources. The basis for it was a certain message, the authorship of which was attributed to Buckingham Palace and which, apparently, turned out to be a fake.'
State news agency TASS reported that the story was fake.
The Kremlin's own newspaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta, published by Putin's government, wrote: 'King Charles III continues to carry out work and private affairs, Buckingham Palace said.
'Previously, many Telegram channels published unverified and false information about the death of the monarch.'
MailOnline has contacted Buckingham Palace for comment.
