DOJ Expands Indictment in Minnesota Anti-ICE Church Protest

The Justice Department has indicted 30 more defendants tied to the January anti-ICE protest at Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, bringing the total charged in the case to at least 39 people including nine already named, among them Don Lemon. The new arrests come amid ongoing controversy over immigration enforcement in Minneapolis. Lemon had previously been charged and later indicted with eight others on conspiracy against the rights of religious freedom and interfering with worship, after a magistrate had questioned probable cause for some arrests. Court filings also note a civil-rights-related motion by Orlando Sonza (now working with Harmeet Dhillon) and a church-member lawsuit alleging the service disruption from the protest.

BAC dispute shakes up Gaudreau murder case

Defense argues new BAC findings show Sean Higgins’s blood-alcohol content was .075 (plasma-tested) rather than the .087 claimed by prosecutors, potentially affecting the grand-jury indictment in the 2024 fatal crash that killed NHL star Johnny Gaudreau and his brother. Prosecutors will review the evidence, with a possible new indictment if they concede the discrepancy, and Higgins faces court updates on April 14 amid ongoing plea talks.

Atlantic Chase Ends in Indictment of Tanker Captain

The United States indicted the captain of the tanker Marinera (formerly Bella 1) after a weekslong Atlantic chase for attempting to reach Venezuela and evading a Coast Guard boarding. The ship, which had renamed itself, displayed a Russian flag and was linked to Iranian oil sanctions-evasion activity before U.S. forces seized it near the U.K. on Jan. 7, part of a broader crackdown on Venezuela’s oil trade. The captain, Avtandil Kalandadze, faces two federal charges as the crew were detained; a UK judicial challenge by his wife was unsuccessful and officials did not immediately comment.

Benghazi 2012 suspect extradited to face U.S. charges

The FBI arrested Zubayar al-Bakoush, a suspected member of Ansar al-Sharia linked to the 2012 Benghazi attack that killed four Americans, and transferred him to the United States. He faces a seven-count indictment in Washington, D.C., including murder, attempted murder, arson, and providing material support to terrorists, and is due to appear in court. Prosecutors say he participated in the assault on the U.S. mission and the nearby CIA annex; authorities note more suspects remain at large. Two other Libyans previously prosecuted in the case include Ahmed Abu Khatallah (acquitted of murder but convicted on other counts) and Mustafa al-Imam (convicted in 2019).

Court filings expand Emmanuel Clase betting scheme to 48 games

Court filings expand Emmanuel Clase betting scheme to 48 games

A new court filing alleges MLB closer Emmanuel Clase helped a bettor rig pitches in at least 48 games over two years—far more than the nine games cited in the November indictment—accusing Ortiz and Clase of taking kickbacks; Ortiz's attorney argues he has a different level of culpability and seeks to sever his case, while Ortiz allegedly joined the scheme in June 2025 and both players were placed on paid leave by MLB in July. Clase’s team has argued that some text messages were misinterpreted and tied to his Dominican Republic rooster-fighting activities, and at least one bettor claimed he placed wagers on Clase’s pitches as a “big sports fan.”

Shin Bet chief’s brother faces wartime aiding charge over Gaza cigarette smuggling

Israeli prosecutors charged Bezalel Zini, brother of Shin Bet head David Zini, with aiding the enemy in wartime for allegedly smuggling 14 cartons (about 7,000 packs) of cigarettes into Gaza in exchange for 365,000 shekels; the case is tied to a broader indictment accusing a crime ring of smuggling goods including iPhones and car parts to Hamas, with two accomplices also charged and Zini denying the allegations. His brother is not implicated.
