Quick Glance: Harvey Weinstein’s 2020 Rape Conviction Overturned
- New York's highest court overturned Harvey Weinstein's 2020 rape conviction, disappointing those who celebrated historic gains during the #MeToo era.
- The ruling was based on legal technicalities and did not exonerate Weinstein's behavior, according to #MeToo advocates.
- Weinstein, convicted in Los Angeles for another rape, will face retrial in New York, despite remaining in prison.

Quick Glance: Jamal Murray Leads Denver Nuggets to Impressive Victory over LA Lakers
- Jamal Murray achieved an impressive 15-foot buzzer-beater over Anthony Davis to complete a sensational 20-point comeback and give the Denver Nuggets a 101-99 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. This unexpected triumph grants the defending champions a 2-0 lead in the first round, as they now prepare for the upcoming games in the Lakers' arena.
- Following the game-winning shot, Jamal Murray fell into the Nuggets' bench and was embraced by his teammates, igniting the atmosphere in the Ball Arena. Murray faced a challenging start in the game, hitting only three of his first 16 shots before going 6-for-8 in the fourth quarter, scoring 14 of his total 20 points, including the decisive basket.
- While Murray encountered difficulties, the Nuggets stayed competitive thanks to another outstanding performance by Nikola Jokić, who recorded 27 points, 20 rebounds, 10 assists, and two steals. Michael Porter Jr. also played a crucial role in the Nuggets' victory with 22 points, including successful shooting from beyond the arc.
- The Lakers expressed dissatisfaction with the officiating, particularly regarding a play in the third quarter where a foul against Porter Jr. on D'Angelo Russell was overturned after a review by the Nuggets. It is evident that the Lakers' prospects are increasingly dim after losing 10 consecutive games against the Nuggets. A monumental shift in fate will be required for Los Angeles to progress to the next round.

- Former interpreter for baseball star Shohei Ohtani from the Los Angeles Dodgers surrendered to authorities and later appeared before the U.S. District Court.
- Ippei Mizuhara turned himself in on Friday and was subsequently released on an unsecured $25,000 bond, commonly referred to as a signature bond. This arrangement allowed Mizuhara to secure his release without needing to provide any cash or collateral.
- United States Magistrate Judge Maria A. Audero also stipulated that Mizuhara must undergo treatment for his gambling addiction related to the sports betting scandal. Prosecutors alleged that he exploited his personal and professional connection with Ohtani to steal over $16 million from the player's bank account by occasionally posing as Ohtani to bankers to cover his gambling expenses.
- On Friday, Mizuhara only responded to the judge's inquiries by answering 'yes' when Audero asked him if he comprehended various aspects of the case and his bond conditions.

Mom Who Threw 2 Kids Onto LA Freeway, Killing Her Infant, Appeared Agitated By Impending Eclipse
huffpost.com/entry/california-infant-freeway_n_661718cfe4b0999df353b799
Quick Glance: Mother Throws 2 Kids on L.A. Freeway: One Child Killed
- A woman who fatally stabbed her partner in their Los Angeles apartment and then threw her two children from a moving SUV onto the freeway, resulting in the death of her infant daughter, had a background in astrology. In a prior online post, she referred to the upcoming solar eclipse as 'the epitome of spiritual warfare'.
- Los Angeles police suspect that Danielle Cherakiyah Johnson, 34, utilized the persona 'Ayoka' as an astrology influencer and musician on X in the days leading up to the incidents.
- The altercation between Johnson and her partner, 29-year-old Jaelen Allen Chaney, occurred around 3:40 a.m. in their Woodland Hills apartment. Following the stabbing of Chaney, Johnson fled with her children, an 8-month-old girl, and her 9-year-old sister, in a Porsche Cayenne.
- Subsequently, Johnson drove on Interstate 405 in Culver City and discarded her daughters from the moving SUV around 4:30 a.m. The infant was declared deceased on the road, while the older daughter, who witnessed the attack, sustained moderate injuries.
