BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 A South Central District judge has rejected a defense request to suppress some evidence in a Bismarck murder conspiracy case. Attorneys for Earl Howard and Nikkisue Entzel argued the evidence, including cellphone and video surveillance, was improperly gathered without search warrants or with warrants that weren\u2019t properly supported by law enforcement affidavits. The 42-year-old Howard and the victim\u2019s 40-year-old wife, are charged with murder conspiracy, among other counts, in the death of 42-year-old Chad Entzel. A sheriff\u2019s deputy earlier testified Howard and Nikkisue Entzel began plotting the victim\u2019s death a month before it happened, in an apparent love triangle with plans to cash in on a life insurance policy.<\/p>\n
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) \u2014 A federal grand jury has indicted the four former Minneapolis police officers involved in George Floyd\u2019s arrest and death, accusing them of willfully violating the Black man\u2019s constitutional rights as he was restrained face-down on the pavement and gasping for air. An indictment unsealed Friday names Derek Chauvin, Thomas Lane, J. Kueng and Tou Thao. Chauvin, Thao and Kueng are charged with violating Floyd\u2019s right to be free from unreasonable seizure and unreasonable force by a police officer. All four are charged for their failure to provide Floyd with medical care. The Floyd family’s attorneys say they’re \u201cencouraged by these charges.\u201d<\/p>\n

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP) \u2014 Jurors have convicted an Alabama police officer charged with murder in the fatal shooting of a suicidal man who was holding a gun to his own head. The panel returned the verdict Friday against Huntsville police officer William \u201cBen\u201d Darby. He was indicted in the killing of Jeffrey Parker in 2018. While prosecutors contend that 27-year-old Darby killed Parker without cause, the defense argued the shooting was justified because Parker posed a threat to Darby and other officers.<\/p>\n

WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 President Joe Biden\u2019s promised economic comeback hit a speed bump Friday with the April jobs report. There were just modest job gains of 266,000 that complicated his $4 trillion push on infrastructure, education and children. The employment report failed to show that the U.S. economy was accelerating forward, so much as it appeared to be stutter-stepping along as the unemployment rate ticked up to 6.1%. Economists had projected roughly one million added jobs last month. And the modest hiring indicated that the $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package has provided an uneven boost so far.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 The Biden administration is allocating $21.6 billion to provide emergency rental assistance to help prevent evictions of people who lost jobs during the pandemic. The administration on Friday also announced changes in the rental assistance program aimed at addressing criticism that the emergency support has not reached many renters who need the help. The additional aid is included in the $1.9 trillion relief package President Joe Biden pushed through Congress in March. Administration officials said the additional support was urgently needed because nearly 7 million Americans reported being behind in their rent payments in late April. More than 40% of those renters worry that they could be evicted over the next two months.<\/p>\n

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) \u2014 California’s population declined in 2020 for the first time since state officials have been measuring it. State officials announced Friday that the nation’s most populous state lost 182,083 people in 2020. California’s population is now just under 39.5 million. It had shown only very small annual increases for the last several years. Last week, the U.S. Census Bureau announced the state would lose a congressional seat for the first time because it grew more slowly than other states during the past decade. State officials blamed the loss on a declining birth rate, reductions in immigration and an increase in deaths because of the coronavirus.<\/p>\n

GENEVA (AP) \u2014 European leaders are voicing increasing skepticism that a U.S. proposal to lift patent protections on COVID-19 vaccines would solve the problem of getting shots into the arms of people in poorer countries, with some instead calling for more exports of the doses already being produced. While activists and humanitarian institutions have cheered the Biden administration\u2019s decision and urged others to follow suit, European Union leaders hammered home the message that any benefit from a temporary waiver of intellectual property protections would be slow in coming. Instead, they\u2019ve taken the U.S. to task for not sharing more vaccines. White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Friday that the U.S. is going to work to increase supply to the global community.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
LONDON (AP) \u2014 Britain has announced a \u201cfirst tentative step\u201d toward resuming international travel for U.K. citizens. It said they will be able to travel to countries including Portugal, Iceland and Israel later this month without having to quarantine upon their return. Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said the country’s current blanket ban on overseas vacations is being replaced by a traffic-light system classifying countries as low, medium or high risk. The \u201cgreen list\u201d of 12 low-risk territories also includes Gibraltar, the Faroe Islands and the Falkland Islands \u2014 but not major vacation destinations such as France, Spain, Italy or Greece. Britons traveling to those countries will have to self-isolate for 10 days upon their return.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 Severe drought conditions persist in North Dakota, despite widespread rainfall and cooler weather recently. About 85% of North Dakota is experiencing extreme drought, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor map released Thursday. That\u2019s up from 83% last week. Extreme drought blankets the western and central portions of the state, with most of the Red River Valley in moderate or severe drought. The state has received widespread precipitation over the past two weeks. The National Weather Service says the cool temperatures has been enough to slow down the drought degradation, but soil moisture remains well below average across the majority of the state.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/May-Covid-Testing-Schedule-01-300x232.png\")
