Authorities believe a men’s rights lawyer shot and killed a fellow attorney in California in the days before he attacked a federal judge’s family in New Jersey and died by suicide
He withdrew as the lawyer in the case a year ago after being diagnosed with cancer. When he died, Den Hollander had items related to both Salas and New York State Chief Judge Janet M. DiFiore.
Officials said Den Hollander drove the rental car to Angelucci's home, where he shot and killed him. Den Hollander drove away and boarded a train out of California from Union Station in Los Angeles. A photo at the station shows a man, again masked, wheeling a suitcase.
Mumia Abu-Jamal (born Wesley Cook; April 24, 1954) is an American political activist and journalist who was convicted of murder and sentenced to death in 1982 for the 1981 murder of Philadelphia police officer Daniel Faulkner.
After three hours of deliberations, the jury presented a unanimous guilty verdict. In the sentencing phase of the trial, Abu-Jamal read to the jury from a prepared statement. He was cross-examined about issues relevant to the assessment of his character by Joseph McGill, the prosecuting attorney.
The Faulkner family, politicians, and other groups involved with law enforcement, state and city governments argue that Abu-Jamal's trial was fair, his guilt beyond question, and his death sentence justified.
The gender pay gap is figured out by comparing the median annual earnings for women working full-time all year long to the earnings of men doing the same. Regardless of industry, their level of education, or where they live, women earn less and have been earning less for a long time.
Equal Pay Day marks the day each year when women finally earn the same amount that men earned during the previous year. If men and women were paid equally, Equal Pay Day would be December 31. But it’s not. Since women, overall, earn 82 cents for every dollar earned by men, Equal Pay Day was March 31 this year. But for Black women it was August 13.
Studies have shown that opening our economy to those it has not traditionally served benefits all of us. Why isn’t this something we’d want to do? Closing the pay gap would certainly benefit women, who could use the significant earnings they miss out on every year and across their lifetimes to better support themselves and their families.
