Mexican Mayor, Cops Sent to Prison for Torturing Journalist
A former mayor from the southern Mexican state of Yucatan and five local police were sent to prison for illegally arresting and torturing a journalist in 2014. The acts were retaliation for unwanted coverage.
The mayor and cops from the town of Seye were each sentenced to prison following their convictions on the charges of abuse of authority and causing injuries to a civilian, information released by Mexico’s Federal Ministry revealed. While authorities did not reveal the names of the officers, available information notes that five were sentenced to two years in prison, while the sixth received an additional four months behind bars.
On January 1, 2014, the cops arrested and tortured Edwin Canche Pech, a photographer with El Diario de Yucatan after he had arrived at the scene of a single-vehicle crash, the international press freedom organization Article 19 reported at the time. The driver of the vehicle, Sergio Dzul Huchim, was a relative of Ermilio Dzul Huchim, the mayor of Seye.

Powell says he would reject any Trump request to resign
WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said Friday that he will not resign if asked to do so by President Donald Trump, and that he is prepared to be patient in deciding when to raise interest rates again.
Both of those messages cheered stock market investors who had been worried about Trump’s repeated attacks on his hand-picked choice to lead the nation’s central bank and also the Fed’s seemingly inexorable march to higher rates.
