Jury chooses life in prison for man who killed 2 from Vietnam in Las Vegas hotel room in 2018
A Nevada jury decided Thursday that a man should serve life in state prison no chance of parole for breaking into a room at a Las Vegas Strip hotel-casino and killing two Vietnamese tour leaders in 2018. Julius Damiano Deangilo Trotter, 37, was spared a death sentence by the same state court jury that found him guilty on Tuesday of murder, burglary and robbery in the stabbings of Sang Boi Nghia and Khoung Ba Le Nguyen at the Circus Circus hotel. Defense attorney Lisa Rasmussen said afterward that Trotter and his legal team appreciated the jury decision, but that Trotter will appeal his conviction and sentence “as a normal part of the criminal justice system.”

Louisiana’s new law on abortion drugs establishes risky treatment delays, lawsuit claims
Louisiana's new law categorizing two widely used abortion drugs as “controlled dangerous substances” was challenged in a state court lawsuit Thursday by a physician, a pharmacist and others who say the legislation sets up needless, dangerous delays in treatment during medical emergencies. Although there already was a near-total abortion ban in Louisiana, including by medication, the reclassification of the drugs — mifepristone and misoprostol, which have other critical reproductive health care uses — went into effect earlier this month. “Even short delays in accessing misoprostol can be life-threatening for postpartum hemorrhage patients,” says the lawsuit.

Pilot error blamed for crash of military jet missing for more than a day in South Carolina
A Marine investigation blamed the pilot of an advanced fighter jet for ejecting from the aircraft when he didn't need to, causing the F-35 to fly unmanned for 11 minutes before it crashed in rural South Carolina last year. Military officials could not find the jet or its wreckage for more than 24 hours, a predicament the investigative report released Thursday blamed on the $100 million aircraft's stealth technology as well as a transponder that didn't work and the plane flying at low altitude with a system that automatically stabilizes flight without a pilot's control. The jet suffered several system failures as the pilot tried to land at Joint Base Charleston in heavy rain in September 2023 after a 50-minute training flight with another F-35.

Mexican fuel flows to Cuba as the island faces blackouts and the loss of Russian and Venezuelan oil
As Cuba grapples with blackouts and a deepening economic crisis, Mexico has sent nearly half a million barrels of crude oil and diesel in just a span of days, oil shipment data provided to The Associated Press showed Thursday. It comes at a time when shipments of Russian and Venezuelan oil that long kept the island afloat have largely petered out, leaving Mexico as one of Cuba's few lifelines. “Mexico now is key because Venezuela has dropped its supplies to Cuba, Russian oil it’s nowhere to be seen," said Jorge Piñon, senior research fellow at the University of Texas at Austin’s Energy Center, which tracks the shipments.
