A Pennsylvania school principal was arrested and accused of having a years-long sexual relationship with a student, who trusted the administrator "like an older brother," authorities said Friday. State police and prosecutors earlier this week announced the arrest of Roger Weaver Freed , 34, and he's since been released on $175,000 bail, state Trooper Lauren Lesher said. He's been charged with alleged sexual contact with a student, corruption of a minor, furnishing liquor to a minor, sexual assault and aggravated indecent assault without consent. The victim, now college-aged, has not been named by authorities. Freed on Friday was still listed as a principal at Williamsport Area High School, which is about 90 miles north of the Pennsylvania State Capitol in Harrisburg and 7 miles west of the famed baseball complex where the Little League World Series is played every summer.

1 Business "The way we look at it is: If not St. Jude, then who?" Pro Publica , News Partner Posted Reply By David Armstrong and Ryan Gabrielson, ProPublica June 9, 2022 In July 2021, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital announced to fanfare that it had just finished raising $2 billion in donations, a single-fiscal-year record for the nation's largest health care charity.

Those surplus dollars instead flowed to the hospital's reserve fund, which helped it grow to $7.6 billion by the end of June 2021. That's enough money … [Read more...] about St. Jude Stashed Away $886 Million In Unspent Revenue Last Year

The chief justice wound up isolated on the Court he allegedly leads. Photo: Patrick Semansky/AP While the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization will go down in history as a 6-3 decision with only the three Democrat-appointed justices dissenting, Chief Justice John Roberts actually did not support a full reversal of Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey . His concurring opinion, which argued that the Court should uphold Mississippi’s ban on abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy without entirely abolishing a constitutional right to abortion, represented a path not taken by the other five conservative members of the Court. When the Court held oral arguments on the Mississippi law last December, the conservative majority’s determination to redeem Donald Trump’s promise to reverse Roe v. Wade was quite clear. The only ray of hope was the clear discomfort of Chief Justice John Roberts, as New York ’s Irin … [Read more...] about John Roberts Had a Vague Plan to Only Half-Kill Abortion Rights

In January, recipients got their largest "cost of living adjustment" since 2012: To keep up with inflation, benefits were boosted 2.8%. A retired worker's monthly payment went from $1,422 to $1,461. That works out to $468 extra over the course of the year. Enjoy it while you can, seniors, because the advocacy group the Senior Citizens League is forecasting just a 1.8% increase for 2020, due to falling prices for gasoline and other things.
