Two Prosecutors Suspended for Describing Jan. 6 Attack as 'Mob of Rioters'

The prosecutors' language and the subsequent suspension highlight ongoing tensions and personnel changes within US Attorney's offices amid politically sensitive cases.

"Police Seize Karen Read's Phones in Alleged Connection with 'Turtleboy' Blogger"

Court documents reveal evidence of frequent contact between murder suspect Karen Read and controversial blogger "Turtleboy," including alleged sharing of non-public case information. The communications involved intermediaries and extensive phone calls, with Read's defense claiming she is the victim of a cover-up. The blogger, Aidan Timothy Kearney, faces charges related to the case and was indicted on 16 counts, including witness intimidation. A search warrant application details the alleged communications and the involvement of intermediaries, leading to the seizure of Read's phones. The documents did not reveal the findings, and Read is scheduled to go on trial in March.
