Emergency room doctor temporarily loses custody over coronavirus concerns

A divorced emergency room physician temporarily lost custody of her daughter because of the coronavirus pandemic. Dr. Theresa Greene, a doctor in South Florida, previously shared custody of her 4-year-old daughter with her ex-husband, Eric Greene, but a judge granted an emergency order granting him sole custody until the ordeal is over, according to NBC Miami.

In the court's decision, Circuit Judge Bernard Shapiro wrote, “In order to protect the best interests of the minor child, including but not limited to the minor child’s safety and welfare, this Court temporarily suspends the Former Wife’s timesharing until further Order of Court. The suspension is solely related to the outbreak of COVID-19.” The judge also made it known that his ruling was made to protect the health and well-being of the child.

Theresa Greene responded to the judge's ruling by saying that "the family court system now is stressing me almost more than the virus." “I was just shocked that the judge would take this stance without talking to medical experts and knowing the facts and take it so lightly, take my child from me, and not think of the effect on her, her mental and psychological well-being,” she added. The doctor noted that the custody battle will not stop her from following the "oath" she took to help people.

Avenatti granted temporary release from jail over coronavirus

Disgraced lawyer Michael Avenatti was granted a temporary release from jail, citing concerns he could contract the coronavirus. Avenatti, who is currently serving time at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City for trying to extort Nike, was granted release on Friday after his $1 million bail was paid by Hubert Bromma, author of the book How to Invest in Offshore Real Estate and Pay Little or No Taxes, according to The Daily Beast.

He will spend two weeks in quarantine at a Federal Bureau of Prisons facility before he's allowed to leave to make sure he has not already contracted the virus. Upon completion, he will return to Los Angeles for 90 days. Avenatti will be confined to the residence of Jay Manheimer, a childhood friend, in Venice, California.

Avenatti initially requested his release earlier this month, alleging that his recent bout with pneumonia made him more susceptible to contracting COVID-19. But the judge said he posed “a danger to the community” and could not be released unless he could post $1 million bail. While out, he will need to wear an ankle monitor and get permission to travel while he's barred from leaving Manheimer's house, and he will not be allowed to use the internet or open any bank accounts. Additionally, he's not allowed to participate in any transaction that exceeds $500.

Earlier this year, Avenatti was convicted of attempting to extort more than $25 million from Nike, and he faces other charges of bank fraud in California. Additionally, he has been charged with stealing $300,000 from pornography actress Stormy Daniels, whom he represented in her case against President Trump. Daniels alleged the lawyer stole the money she received from a book advance.

Q

'Not a bad idea': Gore open to idea of Obama as 'coronavirus czar' under Biden

Former Vice President Al Gore appeared to support the idea that Joe Biden should name former President Barack Obama as "coronavirus czar" if he becomes president. “What would you think about Biden naming Obama coronavirus czar right now?” Maher asked. "He did really good with the Ebola virus. You think that would excite people to get to the polls, knowing that Obama was going to be in charge of handling this disease as opposed to the way it’s being handled at the top right now?” Gore first responded by saying that Biden should make sure Obama wants the position before offering it to him publicly, but noted that Obama "would be extremely capable at anything that he was assigned to.” “I’d question whether or not Biden would want to do that right now, but it’s not a bad idea, Bill,” he added.

Biden's campaign has been relegated to second fiddle as the pandemic continues. The former vice president has been forced to change his entire campaign operation to be online. Even though every other candidate vying for the Democratic nomination has dropped out, a recent poll showed that many Democrats believe New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo might be better suited for the top of the ticket. A nationwide poll found that 56% of likely Democratic voters said that they would like Cuomo to be the Democratic presidential nominee rather than Biden, while 44% said that the former vice president should be the nominee. The online survey was conducted among 1,000 likely voters from April 3-6, and the results for the Democratic sample have a margin of error of plus or minus 4.8 percentage points.
