California secures $600M federal grant to improve power grid

By Staff

The U.S. Department of Energy granted $600 million to a public-private partnership to improve California's electric power grid that officials hope will lead to energy savings and better reliability for consumers, the governor's office announced Tuesday.

The federal grant will fund upgrades to 100 miles of electricity transmission lines with technologies that improve reliability and more swiftly deliver "clean, affordable electricity," according to Gov. Gavin Newsom's office.

A consortium comprised of the California Energy Commission, California Public Utilities Commission, California Independent System Operator, Pacific Gas & Electric Co., and Southern California Edison will administer the grant, known as the Grid Resilience and Innovation Partnership, or GRIP.

“Once again, the BidenHarris Administration is not just talking the talk, they’re walking the walk," Newsom said in a statement.

"This funding is critical to our efforts to build a power grid that ensures all Californians have access to cleaner, cheaper, more reliable electricity."

Officials highlighted these aspects of the project:

-- It will support over 300 direct jobs;

-- equip over 100 miles of transmission lines with updated conductor technologies that officials said "will help connect more clean energy resources than the existing grid can accommodate at this time";

-- deliver savings of a projected $200 million in energy costs because of enhanced grid efficiency;

-- "create economic and community benefits for disadvantaged communities," according to Newsom's office;

"The agencies, grid operator and utilities will partner on the California Harnessing Advanced Reliable Grid Enhancing Technologies for Transmission (CHARGE 2T) program, which will expand transmission capacity and provide interconnection improvements to increase and accelerate equitable access to clean energy resources across the state," according to the governor's office.

-- invest in energy and utility workforce training programs; and

-- "develop a portal to improve transparency and efficiency in the interconnection process," officials said.

“As California grapples with increasingly extreme weather as a result of the climate crisis, bolstering our transmission network is essential for protecting public

safety and ensuring a successful clean energy transition,”

U.S. Senator Alex Padilla said in a statement. “To meet the challenges we face, we must modernize our grid, and there is no better way to achieve that than through reconductoring. Thanks to this historic investment in our state’s CHARGE 2T program through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, we’re

Tupdating our transmission lines to efficiently, reliably, and affordably deliver clean electricity while creating new green jobs.”

Clean energy leadership

The governor's office touted the state's status as the world’s fifth largest economy that is being powered by more clean energy than ever in the past, setting new records and accelerating progress toward 100% carbon-free electricity by 2045.

At 10,379 megawatts, the state's battery capacity has jumped 1,250% from 770 MW in 2019 when Newsom took office.

California’s electricity grid broke "a series of clean energy records this year," officials said. "For at least 100 days this year, clean energy has exceeded grid demand consumed at some point during the day."

Newsom's office credited the new clean energy resources and surge in battery storage with enabling the state's grid to withstand July’s two-week heat wave "and even exported power to other states."

Tribal collaborations

The tribal communities currently rely on the Hoopa 1101 circuit, which according to state officials is among the least reliable circuits in the PG&E service area. Hoopa 1101 customers experience average outages that last twice as long as outages that occur with most other circuits.

"The project’s innovative approach — developed in collaboration with a new grid services laboratory at Cal Poly Humboldt — addresses the difficulties posed by rugged, rural, and wildfire-prone environments, and will allow communities to move away from relying on fossil fuels," according to Newsom's office.

More information on energy projects in in California is at build.ca.gov.

A Northern California electrical grid project, led by the Blue Lake Rancheria, Hoopa Valley, Karuk and Yurok tribes, also received $88 million in GRIP funds, Newsom's office announced. Matching funds from other sources will total about $200 million to develop a "network of community microgrids to ultimately create a highly reliable, resilient, and decarbonized system."

LA County to provide guaranteed stipends to 2,000 foster dependents

By Anusha Shankar, City News Service

he Board of Supervisors voted Tuesday to expand its "Breathe" guaranteed-income program to provide financial stipends to more than 2,000 non-minor dependents in the foster care system. In addition to the stipends, the foster dependents will also have access to career and education counseling, financial empowerment training, housing and other programs as recommended by the Department of Consumer and Business Affairs' Center for Financial Empowerment.

The Breathe guaranteed income program began as a pilot project in March 2022, providing regular payments to 1,000 in-need residents. Last year, the board agreed to expand the program to include 200 former foster care youth

adjusting to life outside the system.

"While Breathe's initial expansion supports 200 former foster youth, the

continued support of transitioning foster youth can provide essential financial stability during such a critical and pivotal time

Foster dependents

in their lives where data has demonstrated the risks youth exiting care face, including homelessness to justice system involvement," according to a motion by Supervisor Holly Mitchell.

According to the motion, funding to expand the program is available through the state's Flexible Family Support funding. The FFS funding is subject to criteria when it comes to providing stipends to youth, meaning the recipients will have to use the money for specific purposes, defined as "extracurricular and enrichment activities that are designed to enhance the foster child or non-minor dependant's skills, abilities, self-esteem, relationships, and overall well-being and healing."

Noting that L.A. County is home to the largest population of youth living in foster care, Mitchell on Tuesday called guaranteed income a "powerful and effective way to truly disrupt poverty."

Supervisor Lindsey

THorvath also spoke out in favor of the idea, saying foster youth often have the worst outcomes when transitioning out of the system, including homelessness, dropping out of schools, poor health and poverty.

"By offering financial support combined with career and education counseling, financial literacy, housing and benefit access support, we'll begin to provide a stable transition out of care," Horvath said.

The expansion will provide support to two groups of people in the foster system between ages 18 and 21:

-- The first group will be 1,000 people aged 18 and 19, providing them $500 monthly stipends for 18 months, along with access to career and education counseling, financial empowerment training, and other supportive services; and

-- the second group would be 1,000 individuals between ages 19 and 21

who are likely to age out of foster care during the 18-month program, providing them with $1,500 quarterly stipends, with the final payment provided in the quarter in which the person turns 21. They would also be provided access to counseling and other supportive services.

To enact the expansion, the board approved through the motion a $4 million increase to a contract with

Strength Based Community Change -- the program administrator -- which will also evaluate the program's impact and how recipients are using the funds. It also backed a roughly $15 million expansion in the contract with MoCaFi, which distributes the debit cards used in the program and also distributes the stipends to those cards, to cover the costs of the payments.

LA County re-establishes rewards for info about Carson, Compton cemetery vandals

he county Board of Supervisors Tuesday re-established a pair of $20,000 reward offers for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for vandalizing two cemeteries in Compton and Carson, stealing bronze plaques and memorial markers.

On Jan. 6, vandals targeted Woodlawn Celestial Gardens cemetery in Compton, "one of the oldest operating cemeteries in Los Angeles County," dating back to the 1880s, according to a motion by Supervisor Holly Mitchell requesting the reward.

"The cemetery includes numerous prominent figures and many local military veterans going as far back as the Civil War and the Spanish-American War," according to the motion.

By City News Service

"The property owner estimates the financial loss to be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars."

On Jan. 12, Lincoln Memorial Park in Carson was hit by vandals who ripped bronze markers and plaques from headstones and walls of a mausoleum.

According to Mitchell, damage from that heist was estimated to be more than $2 million.

"A prominent bronze statue of President Abraham Lincoln that was dedicated in 1934 was damaged in an attempt to remove a plaque from the facade of the statue," according to Mitchell's motion. "Additionally, a large bronze plaque that was gifted and dedicated to the cemetery in 1949 by former World Heavyweight Boxing Champion Joe Louis to commemorate and honor

local veterans who died in combat had also been removed and stolen."

The rewards initially offered by the board in February expired in May. No suspects have been identified in either theft. Anyone with information on the crimes was urged to call Lt. Vincent Ursini from the Sheriff's Department at 562-946-7008 or Crime Stoppers at 800- 222-8477.

Escondido clinic sues state AG's office over abortion reversal pill lawsuits

By City News Service

An Escondido-based anti-abortion clinic filed a federal lawsuit against the California Attorney General's Office, which sued anti-abortion groups last year for allegedly forwarding misleading claims regarding a procedure known as Abortion Pill Reversal.

The lawsuit filed July 27 on behalf of Culture of Life Family Services alleges California Attorney General Rob Bonta's office "is targeting protected speech and activities" through its litigation against groups marketing the practice.

The clinic, which states on its website that it provides "Christ-centered medical care and pregnancy clinic

services," is headed by Dr. George Delgado, who is credited with founding the Abortion Pill Reversal procedure, sometimes abbreviated as APR.

APR proponents say that after a pregnant woman takes mifepristone with aims of terminating a pregnancy, she can counteract its effects by taking the hormone progesterone within 72 hours.

But Bonta's office says there isn't any scientific evidence to support Abortion Pill Reversal's efficacy or safety.

Last fall, the California Attorney General's Office sued a chain of Northern California pregnancy centers and national anti-abortion group

Heartbeat International for promoting APR. Bonta's office said the organizations used "fraudulent and misleading claims" to advertise Abortion Pill Reversal, which it called "an unproven and largely experimental procedure" that presents potential health risks for patients who undergo the treatment.

Bonta's office did not immediately respond for comment on the lawsuit.

Culture of Life Family Services' lawsuit seeks to block the state AG's office from filing similar suits against organizations providing APR.

"Attorney General Rob Bonta refuses to recognize a woman's right to reverse an abortion in progress when she

DOJ sues TikTok in LA, alleging illegal collection of children's data

By City News Service

The U.S. Department of Justice sued TikTok and its China-based owner Friday, alleging in federal court the popular Culver City-based app violated a child privacy law by collecting personal information from millions of Americans under the age of 13.

For years, the company has allowed children under 13 to create and use TikTok accounts without their parents' knowledge or consent, collected extensive data, and failed to comply with parents' requests to delete their children's accounts and personal information, according to the complaint.

The DOJ alleges TikTok violates a federal statute and regulations that protect children's privacy and safety online, and defies a 2019 court order resolving a similar lawsuit in L.A. federal court against TikTok's predecessor. Among other things, the company was fined $5.7 million and ordered to keep records demonstrating its compliance with federal regulations, according to court papers.

TikTok did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

In a separate action, President Joe Biden signed a bill in April that could lead to a nationwide TikTok ban. The legislation gives TikTok's owner, ByteDance, potentially up to a year to sell the video-based social media platform to a non-Chinese buyer or face a ban from app stores in the United States and hosting services that support it.

In a video posted to TikTok, the company's chief executive, Singaporean businessman Shou Chew, told users in April, "Rest assured, we aren't going

has changed her mind about the procedure," said Peter Breen, executive vice president and head of litigation for the Thomas More Society, a law firm that frequently files lawsuits on behalf of conservative causes. "Abortion Pill

Reversal gives these women a second chance to choose life, a choice that Bonta and the abortion industry would strip from her."

Delgado was also a plaintiff in another case challenging the U.S. Food and Drug

Administration's approval of mifepristone and seeking to remove access to the drug.

In June, the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously ruled that the plaintiffs lacked standing to sue and threw out the lawsuit.

USC researchers call for legislation to combat

'pharmacy deserts'

By Suzanne Potter, Producer, Public News Service

Research shows many people in low-income California communities are having a hard time filling their prescriptions because pharmacies in their area are struggling and even closing.

One in four communities in Los Angeles County, for example, is now considered a "pharmacy desert."

anywhere."

According to the lawsuit, TikTok has more than 170 million users in the U.S., including many children and teens. In 2022, twothirds of U.S. teens reported using TikTok, including about 61% of teens aged 13 or 14. By late 2023, nearly half of U.S. teens reported using TikTok multiple times a day, the lawsuit states.

The complaint contends that TikTok allows children to bypass or evade the platform's "age gate," which asks for birthday information, and collects personal information even from users who identify themselves as children.

Dima Qato, associate professor of pharmaceutical sciences at the University of Southern California, and her team have developed a mapping tool that reveals the extent of the problem, which she said hits communities of color hardest in both urban and rural areas.

"I think that it's getting worse," Qato observed. "In the next several years, a lot of chains have announced plans to close many of their stores. At the same time, one and three independents are at risk for closing."

Qato would like to see Congress reform the practices of pharmacy benefit managers, who decide where a patient can go to fill their

medications, how much a pharmacy will be paid and which pharmacies are considered "in network" for health insurance. The bipartisan Pharmacy Benefits Manager Accountability Act, currently in Congress, would increase oversight of the industry.

Qato argued stronger policies could keep more independent pharmacies from going out of business, which could also improve health equity.

"It's due to the role of pharmacy benefit managers and low reimbursement rates, and the growth of pharmacy networks, which restrict where patients can and cannot go," Qato outlined. "Sometimes, patients have to bypass the nearest pharmacy to go to another pharmacy that's within their network."

University of Southern California researchers have called for policies encouraging pharmacies to locate in pharmacy deserts, including increases to Medicaid and Medicarereimbursement rates for those most at risk for closure.

San Bernardino County awarded $99M for flood control projects

San Bernardino County has been awarded $99 million to partially fund four flood control projects in a new federal water bill. The Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) reauthorizes funding for the Army Corps of Engineers and supports major water infrastructure projects. The bill, H.R. 8812, passed the House of Representatives on a bipartisan vote July 22. In addition to the funding, the legislation directs the Army Corps to conduct extensive feasibility studies on three county projects.

Board of Supervisors proposes protections for law enforcement funding

On Tuesday, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to place the San Bernardino County Law Enforcement Staffing and Community Protection Act of 2024 on the Nov. 5 General Election ballot. If approved by a majority of voters, the act will establish a funding formula for law enforcement resources in unincorporated communities and make it difficult for future boards to reduce law enforcement funding. The act would require the board to allocate a minimum amount of funding in its annual budget to fund patrol personnel’s direct salary and benefit costs for operations in the unincorporated areas of the county. The minimum amount would be the average of actual patrol personnel salary and benefit costs in the unincorporated area of the county in the three preceding fiscal years.

Monrovia Old Town report: The bittersweet farewell

By Shawn Spencer shawn@girlfridaysolutions.net

And so, we bid adieu to another Old Town business. Clever Bear Toys and Books opened on Myrtle in February 2023, to the delight of children and adults alike. The store was adorable, and the owner even more so. I was a huge lover of the Dollmaker’s Kattywompus, and even more so of the family that owned it. It was a huge loss to Old Town when they shuttered their doors, which was why I was so happy to see Clever Bear come to town.

The loss of a second beautiful toy store is doubly hard. The owner had wonderful events: scavenger hunts, author led readings, sales, demo events, Easter egg hunts and more. Sadly, store sales were not what they needed to be to sustain Clever Bear. As sorry as I am to see this store close, I am happy that the owner Christine will still be present in our community. She plans to move her toy store to a booth at our Friday night street fair to augment her online store. I love that she will still have a physical

presence where children can see and touch her toys and books.

Although this is not the path Christine planned for, I am a firm believer in the metaphor “when one door closes, another one opens.” Life is full of opportunities, even in the face of adversity and disappointment. Thank you, Christine, for bringing your wonderful store to Old Town. We wish you well and look forward to seeing you every Friday night!

To take the metaphor literally, as Clever Bear’s doors close, the doors of Saint Aesthetix open.

Moving into the newly vacated 526 S. Myrtle Ave., Saint Aesthetix is a boutique wellness clinic that plans to offer the following services: electrolysis, scalp treatment with massage & hair wash, wrinkle relaxers, dermal fillers, IV therapy, skincare treatments, hair restoration, fat loss, laser therapy, PDO threads and more. They will have an entire retail section dedicated to the retail of high-end skin care.

Aesthetix has been a long-time resident of Monrovia but is excited to be relocating to our historic Old Town District. The owner of Saint Aesthetix, Eunice, is an absolute delight. Saint Aesthetix has just begun the design phase of their build-out, with the help of Mark Houston Associates, Old Town’s very own designbuild firm.

They hope to be open by Christmas and I, for one, am super excited about this. I think this will be an excellent addition to Old Town. I wish for them a fast opening and longevity during these trying times of being a small business owner.

“Let us find gratitude for the chapters that have closed, courage for the chapters that await, and compassion for ourselves as we navigate the complexities of goodbyes and new beginnings. For in every goodbye lies the promise of a new hello, and in every farewell, the opportunity for growth, renewal, and transformation.”- Masibwrites

Inside the US House districts represented by Dems in '24 and won by Trump in '20

U.S. House districts up for election in 2024 that Republican candidate Donald Trump won in the 2020 presidential election. As of June 2024, Ballotpedia has identified all eight districts as 2024 U.S. House battlegrounds. Trump's margin of victory in the eight districts ranged from 2.9 percentage points to 17.2 percentage points.

Representation changes each election

Five incumbents in Democratic-held districts that Trump won in 2020 are seeking reelection in 2024. Three incumbents are retiring from public office.

In 2022, there were 13 Democratic-held U.S. House districts up for election that Trump won in 2020. Incumbents did not seek reelection in eight of the 13 districts. Ten of the Democraticheld districts flipped and

elected a Republican in 2022.

From 1900 to 2020, the percentage of congressional districts that voted for a presidential candidate of one party and a U.S. representative from a different party ranged

from 1.6% (five districts) in 1904 to 44.1% (192 districts) in 1972. The number of districts available changes year-byyear.

10 influential Indigenous Americans you might not know about

By Zeynep Guler Tuck, Stacker

Most Americans can count on one hand theIndigenous Americans who they know contributed to the colonial history of this land — perhaps Sacagawea, Geronimo, Pocahontas or Sitting Bull.

However, the reality is the one-sided nature of American history taught to children in the U.S. has minimized the contributions of Indigenous people, making for a challenging journey to truth and reconciliation with the native people of this land.

With the discoveries of a burial site for Indigenous children in Albuquerque, New Mexico, in September 2021 and the unmarked graves of children in Canada in the summer of 2021, more of the world finally began reckoning with the brutal realities of the boarding school system and the insidious legacy of colonization — injustices that Indigenous activists and concerned communities have been speaking up about for years.

Speaking as an expert on a panel about Indigenous boarding schools, Dena Ned, a Chickasaw Nation of Oklahoma member, stressed the importance of remembering and learning our history. By doing so, Ned explained, we can understand why it's essential for policies, systems and institutions to recognize and respond to community members.

As recognition of influential Indigenous Americans has grown, so have wrongful claims of Indigenous heritage, leading to the term "pretendian." Notable figures like award-winning folk singer Buffy Sainte Marie, actor Sacheen Littlefeather and author Joseph Boyden have sparked public debate on what it means to be Indigenous. The controversy lies in the damaging effects that claiming Indigenous ancestry can have on communities. When a non-Indigenous person misrepresents their heritage, they occupy spaces meant for Indigenous people, falsely represent a community they don't belong to

and prioritize their fabricated identity over those with genuine Indigenous heritage.

While many people want to support and advocate for Indigenous communities, inaccurately claiming Indigenous heritage is not the same as being a trusted ally.

By learning about the backgrounds, contributions and sacrifices of Indigenous leaders, you can take action as an ally to break down the systems of oppression that threaten the rights and identities of Indigenous peoples.

Backed by news articles and historical sources, Stacker

people, including those in Canada and the Gulf of Mexico, hoping they would set aside any differences or ancestral rivalries to unite to defend their lives and homelands against white colonizers.

While Tecumseh's mission failed and he died in battle in 1813, his efforts exposed the duplicitous underbelly of the foundation of America. His impact in the Midwest contributed to the American Indian Movement, which was started in Minneapolis in the 1960s and continues its work to this day.

compiled a list of 19 influential Indigenous Americans you might not know about. Read on to find out about these Indigenous heroes and revolutionaries from across North America who resisted oppression, broke down barriers and changed the course of history.

Editor's note: A previous version of this story included Sacheen Littlefeather on the list. The author has updated this article by providing more context on the matter of "pretendians."

Tecumseh

Wedged between the American expansionists and the British invaders, Tecumseh was a Shawnee leader who attempted to carve out a sovereign Indigenous state in the Midwest. Tecumseh and his spiritually enlightened brother Tenskwatawa were descended from a long line of Indigenous leaders who fought for the land against the intruders.

Tecumseh strived for an alliance of all Indigenous

One of the first Black professional sculptors, Edmonia Lewis, broke down racial and gender barriers with her works of art. Born in 1844 to a Haitian father and Ojibwe mother, Lewis has a shared African and Indigenous American heritage. However, she lost both of her parents by the age of 7.

Red Cloud

Oglala Sioux Chief Red Cloud was among a group of Indigenous leaders who confronted the white settlers who had discovered gold in Montana during the 1860s. The settlers attempted to construct a road lined with protective forts to facilitate the mining of this gold.

However, following a two-year battle, Red Cloud and his army were able to halt the construction of this road, which caused the U.S. to abandon its forts. Red Cloud then signed a treaty securing land for his people in Wyoming, Montana and South Dakota.

A warrior turned diplomat, Red Cloud was committed to nonviolent advocacy. Later in life, after settling in the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, Red Cloud campaigned for Indigenous land and civil rights in Washington. Red Cloud died on Pine Ridge Reservation in 1909 at 88 years old, outliving most

Her most famous work of art is the marble "The Death of Cleopatra," which she carved in 1876 and was acquired by the Smithsonian in the 1990s. Lewis spent time sculpting in Europe, and many of her sculptures speak to the Black experience throughout history. She died in 1907. Her work is still in some of the most famous U.S. museums, including the Smithsonian, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Baltimore Museum of Art.

Susan La Flesche Picotte

Born on Nebraska's Omaha reservation in 1865, Susan La Flesche Picotte was young when she first saw a sick Indigenous community member suffer and die while waiting for a white doctor. By pursuing a Euro-American education while honoring the customs of her people, La Flesche Picotte battled backlash and became the first Indigenous person to earn a medical degree.

She defied the odds again in 1913 when she opened the Omaha reservation's first hospital. La Flesche Picotte died in 1915, and she

was commemorated on her deathbed for bridging the gap between her Indigenous roots and her Euro-American medical education. The Picotte Memorial Hospital was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1993 and, as of 2024, is undergoing a major renovation.

Allan Houser

Indigenous sculptor Allan Houser is considered to be among the most influential artists of the 20th century. His parents, members of the Chiricahua Apache Tribe, were held as war prisoners for 20 years, and his family tree includes legendary Apache leader Geronimo, who was a first cousin to Houser's father.

Houser's career began in 1939 when he was commissioned by the U.S. government to paint murals. He did so for the New York World's Fair, the Department of the Interior in Washington D.C., and the Golden Gate International Exposition in San Francisco. Houser was one of the first Indigenous artists to receive the National Medal of Arts in 1992. His statue, "Swift Messenger," sits in President Biden's Oval Office.

Charlie Parker

One of the most prolific jazz musicians of our time, Charlie "Yardbird" Parker was a renowned saxophonist whose bebop style left a lasting effect on American culture. Born to a Black father and an Indigenous mother, the Kansas City native would go on to collaborate with the

Though he died in 1955 at the mere age of 34, Parker's legacy continues to live on today. The Grammy Award winner's influence on the jazz art form is undeniable. In 2021, the American Jazz Museum committed to celebrating Parker's legacy by raising funds for youth activities and enhanced programming. Parker's iconic works of art will be digitized and preserved by the museum for future generations.

Maria Tallchief

Maria Tallchief moved to New York at just 17 to achieve her dream of becoming a dancer. However, many of the companies she approached turned her away because of her Osage Nation heritage. Her drive and determination against all odds, even refusing to change her last name, led her to become one of America's most revered ballerinas.

Tallchief was the first American to perform at the Paris Opera Ballet, and she and her sister Marjorie went on to found the Chicago City Ballet. Maria Tallchief received the National Medal for the Arts in 1999, and five years after her death in 2013 she was posthumously inducted into the National Native American Hall of Fame in 2018.

Mildred Loving

Many Americans will have heard of Mildred Loving, as she and her husband (and co-plaintiff) Richard battled

major Lakota leaders during the Indian Wars.

Director David Lynch says he's housebound -- but won't retire

By City News Service

After initially indicating he would likely have to retire from filmmaking due to health concerns, legendary director David Lynch has rewritten the script -- and, in a socialmedia post Monday, now says he "will never retire."

The "Blue Velvet" director and "Twin Peaks" creator clarified his future in a statement on X, following an article published in the British magazine Sight & Sound in which he said he cannot leave his L.A. home over fears he will get COVID-19.

"I've gotten emphysema from smoking for so long and so I'm homebound whether I like it or not," the 78-year-old Lynch told the publication. "It would be very bad for me to get sick, even with a cold."

The director added he "can only walk a short distance before" running out of oxygen -- and that he's unlikely to direct a film again unless he could shoot

remotely.

But Monday, Lynch took to social media to provide a health update -- and to reassure his concerned fans.

"Yes, I have emphysema from my many years of smoking," he wrote. "I have to say that I enjoyed smoking very much, and I do love tobacco -- the smell of it, lighting cigarettes on fire, smoking them -- but there is a price to pay for this enjoyment, and the price for me is emphysema."

The director added that he has quit smoking for over

two years.

"Recently I had many tests and the good news is that I am in excellent shape except for emphysema. I am filled with happiness, and I will never retire," he wrote.

"I want you all to know that I really appreciate your concern."

Lynch's last major project was Showtime's "Twin Peaks: The Return" in 2017. The revival of the ABC series was well received by critics and fans alike. The director's last movie was 2006's "Inland Empire."

Indigenous Americans

the ban against interracial marriage in the super-charged case of Loving v. Virginia. What many Americans may not know is that Mildred Loving was of Black and Indigenous descent. She was part of the Rappahannock Tribe and her heritage continues to be a topic of controversy today.

The Lovings took their case to the Supreme Court in 1967 and won, legalizing interracial marriage across the nation. In order to exclusively focus on the white-Black binary that was dominating American discourse around race, coverage of the Loving v. Virginia case — as well as the 2016 film "Loving" — left out Mildred Loving's multiracial heritage.

Ben Nighthorse Campbell

The National Native American Veterans Memorial opened its doors to the public on Veterans Day in 2020. This museum honors the contributions of the Indigenous community and would not have been erected without the support of former Colorado Sen. Ben Nighthorse Campbell. When Campbell was elected in 1992, he was the first Indigenous American to serve in the Senate in over 60 years and the only Indigenous American in Congress.

Besides being a former congressman and a member of the Northern Cheyenne Tribe, Campbell is a Korean War vet, former Olympian, rancher and jewelry designer. As of 2024, his jewelry is for sale at Sorrel Sky Gallery in Santa Fe, New Mexico; Durango, Colorado; and New York City. Wilma Mankiller

One of Time magazine's 100 Women of the Year in 2020, Wilma Mankiller was the first woman appointed Principal Chief of Cherokee Nation. Mankiller faced discrimination and racism growing up, which fueled her commitment to feminism and self-governance for Indigenous people.

The Cherokee community thrived under her two terms as principal chief. Mankiller published her autobiography — "Mankiller: A Chief and Her People" — in 1993 and five years later, she received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from then-President Bill Clinton. She passed away in 2010, leaving a legacy of prosperity, pride and hope.

Chewbarka A514325

Are you looking for a copilot to travel across the galaxy (or even just around town)? Chewbarka might be the wingman you’ve been looking for! This handsome sweetheart is a five-year-old American Bulldog mix whose favorite activity is being right by your side. Chewie is a mellow guy- he loves wandering around the yard sniffing and exploring, but as soon as he sees people he’ll lumber over to say hello with a huge smile on his face and a non-stop wagging tail. Then he gets playful and excited to get a belly rub or to try to sit in your lap. Once he bonds with you, you have a BFF. He will walk right by your side, sit next to you if you want to just chill out, and probably take a nap with his giant head on your feet to make sure you don’t leave without him. Chewbarka is a large dog- he weighs about 75 pounds, but he doesn’t require a lot of exercise. A short walk or two a day would be great for him- he won’t need a run or long hike to keep him happy. He’s also a quick learner- he knows some basic training cues and with the right motivation, he’s happy to perform those as often as you’d like. He appears to be housetrained and walks next to you nicely on leash. Chewie might prefer to be the only dog in the household- he's a bit of an attention hog, so sharing isn’t his favorite thing.

Rocky, Chewbarka, and all other dogs, cats and critters can be adopted at no charge during Pasadena Humane’s Clear the Shelters adoption event, happening Saturday, August 17th from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

US wins women's 3x3 bronze medal game

By City News Service

The United States defeated Canada 16-13 in the women's 3x3 basketball bronze medal game Monday at the Paris Olympics, with Los Angeles Sparks forward Dearica Hamby giving the Americans their first lead with a layup and free throw with 1 minute, 17 seconds to play.

The U.S. never trailed again. The Americans increased their lead to 15-13 with 39 seconds remaining on Cierra Burdick's free throw. Burdick made another free throw with 7 seconds left for the game's final point.

Canada didn't score again after Katherine Plouffe's basket with 1:28 to play gave it a 13-12 lead. The Canadians were scoreless on their final four possessions, missing four shots and committing a turnover.

Baskets inside the arc and free throws are worth one point in 3x3 and baskets made from outside the arc are worth two points.

Canada scored four consecutive points on Plouffe's two baskets and Kacie Bosch's 2-point basket, taking what would be its biggest lead, 7-3, with 6:20 remaining. The U.S. respond-

ed with a 5-1 run, tying the score 8-8 with 4:28 left.

Hailey Van Lith and Rhyne Howard both scored two points during the run which lifted the Americans into the third of six ties. The score was also tied at 9-9, 12-12 and 13-13.

The U.S. made 11 of 17 1-point shots, 64.7%, 0 of 7 2-point shots and 5 of 7 free throws, 71.4%. The Canadians made 7 of 11 1-point shots, 63.6%, 3 of 14 2-point shots and 21.4% and did not attempt a free throw.

Hamby had a game-high equaling 6 rebounds as the U.S. was out-rebounded 15-13. Canada made 10 turnovers, 3 more than the Americans.

Van Lith, a Texas Christian guard, scored a gamehigh 6 points. Howard, an Atlanta Dream guard added 4, and Hamby and Burdick, who played for six WNBA teams between 2015 and 2021 and in Spain, 3 each.

Plouffe led Canada with 5, her twin sister Michelle and Bosch 3 each and Paige Crozon 2.

3x3 is played with a 12-second shot clock on a half court. Coaches are not permitted to be courtside.

The winner is the first team to score 21 points, or the leading team at the end of the 10-minute game clock.

The Olympic tournament was played at a temporary facility at Place de la Concorde, a square that was the site of many notable public executions, including

those of Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette and Maximilien Robespierre during the French Revolution.

Earlier Monday, the U.S. lost a semifinal to Spain, 18-16, in overtime. The first team to score two points in overtime is the winner.

Sandra Ygueravide made a driving layup 25 seconds

into overtime. Howard shot an airball on a 2-point shot 12 seconds later.

Ygueravide ended the game with a free throw 50 seconds into overtime after she was fouled by Hamby driving to the basket.

Spain tied the score with 5 seconds left in regulation on Ygueravide's layup. Hamby had the ball under the basket as time expired in regulation.

The Americans committed 11 fouls to 6 for Spain, which made 6 of 7 free throws, 85.7%. The U.S. made 1 of 3 free throws, with Hamby missing both of hers.

The U.S. committed 9 turnover to 1 for Spain. The Americans out- rebounded the Spaniards, 23-14, with Hamby pulling down a gamehigh 7.

The U.S. made 13 of 23 1-point shots, 56.5%, and 1 of 4 2-point shots, 25%. Spain made 6 of 18 1-point shots, 33.3% and 3 of 13 2-point shots, 23%.

Van Lith led the Americans with 8, Hamby added 5 and Howard 3. Ygueravide led all scorers with 9.

The 6-foot-3-inch, 30-year-old Hamby was selected as a replacement

for her Sparks' teammate Cameron Brink, who suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee June 18 in a 79-70 loss to the Connecticut Sun in Uncasville, Connecticut, that will cause her to miss the Olympics and the rest of the WNBA season.

USA Basketball was required to choose a replacement among the top 50 Americans in the FIBA 3x3 rankings or have the minimum number of ranking points. Hamby's playing for the Sparks had no connection to her selection as Brink's replacement, Justin Trujillo, USA Basketball's communications manager, told City News Service. Hamby is in her ninth season in the WNBA and second with the Sparks. The former Wake Forest standout was the sixth overall selection in the 2015 WNBA draft by the San Antonio Stars. The team moved to Las Vegas before the start of the 2018 season. Hamby was the league's Sixth Woman of the Year in 2019 and 2020 and a WNBA all-star in 2021 and 2022, helping the Aces to the WNBA championship the latter year.

UC President Michael Drake announces retirement

By City News Service

UniversityofCalifornia President Dr. MichaelV.Drake, whosetenureoverseeing the 10-campus system included the disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic and the more recent protests over the IsraelHamas war, announced last week he will step down from his post after the 2024-25 academic year.

Drake, 74, has been president of the UC system since July 2020.

As UC president, Drake also oversees six

academic health systems and three nationally affiliated labs, in addition to the university campuses. Prior to assuming his role as the 21st UC president, he served as Ohio State University president for six years from 2014 through June 2020.

Born in New York City and raised in New Jersey and Sacramento, Drake attended Stanford University before moving to UC San Francisco for medical school.

Drake's history with the

UC system runs longer than 25 years from the onset of his academic career at UCSF, through which he has held academic and administrative roles in UCSF, UC Irvine and UC Riverside.

According to the UC, some of his notable accomplishments have been strengthening relations with Gov. Gavin Newsom, including a five-year funding Compact, development of a systemwide Tuition Stability Plan and creation of the UC Native

American Opportunity Plan.

"At every turn, I have sought to listen to those I served, to uphold our shared UC values, and to do all I could to leave this institution in better shape than it was before," Drake said in a statement. "I'm proud to see the university continuing to make a positive impact on the lives of countless Californians through research, teaching, and public service."

His tenure was riddled with high-profile chal-

lenges, such as a switch to remove instruction during the COVID pandemic, calls for defunding of campus law enforcement following protests over the death of George Floyd in Minnesota and the more recent pro-Palestinian protests on campus and demands that the university system divest from Israel.

According to a statement from his office, "One of the president's core priorities has been creating a safe and respectful community that fosters a free exchange of

ideas. He led a comprehensive, systemwide effort with key stakeholders across the University to reimagine public safety and launch a Systemwide Office of Civil Rights to help ensure that every member of the UC community feels safe and respected."

The UC Board of Regents will establish a committee to search for Drake's successor. The committee will include students, faculty, staff and alumni representatives, according to the UC.

Arcadia mayor sworn in as League of California Cities division president

By Staff

Arcadia Mayor Michael Cao became the next board president for the League of California Cities Los Angeles County Division after a ceremony Thursday at Santa Anita Park.

“I am grateful for the opportunity to represent Arcadia on the Division’s Board of Directors and appreciate the chance to lead as President," Cao said in a statement. "I look forward to working with the other cities in the Division to make the organization an even stronger voice for the cities we represent.”

Cao was sworn in as president of the division after serving on its Executive Board. He was elected to the Arcadia City Council in 2022.

“We are pleased to install Michael as our Division President and know his experience and knowledge will be a great asset to the Division in the coming year," LA County Division Executive Director Jennifer Quan said in a statement. "His leadership in Los Angeles County is important to advancing the strategic priorities of Cal Cities and of cities throughout the state."

Cao, a medical doctor with a specialty in cardiology, "is a longtime public servant ... (who) has spent his life in service of others," according to a city statement that noted Cao's experience leading a Critical Care Airlift Team in the U.S. Air Force and providing medical care for his patients.

Public safety issues top Cao's policy agenda. He opposes "zero bail,"

At the swearing-in ceremony U.S. Army Deputy Under Secretary Mario Diaz delivered remarks, and LA County Supervisor Kathryn Barger administered the oath of office to Cao and the entire panel of Executive Board officers. County Assessor Jeff Prang and Sheriff Robert Luna also spoke at the event.

which refers to the county's decision last year to eliminate cash bail for nonviolent crimes.

"In 2023, Arcadia joined numerous cities in opposing the implementation of the zero bail schedule in Los Angeles County," according to the city statement. "Arcadia maintains that this schedule, which eliminates cash bail for nonviolent crimes, does not prioritize public safety and is harmful due to its one-sizefits-all approach. Mayor Cao supports revisions to the bail schedules that discourage reoffenders and restore the full capacity of the justice system."

Cao also supports the efforts of the Organized Retail Crime Task Force.

"With a major mall in its borders, Arcadia understands firsthand the devastating impacts of smash-and-grab incidents," city officials said. "Mayor Cao has been vocal about supporting the efforts

of the Organized Retail Crime Task Force through Cal Cities and the Arcadia Police Department ... (and) maintains the need for an aggressive response to retail crime that better protects the public and California retailers."

The Homelessness, Drug Addiction, and Theft Reduction Act is also legislation Cao and Arcadia council members support.

"Mayor Cao will continue

to back smart legislative reforms that address unintended consequences (of Proposition 47) and hold repeat offenders accountable," officials said.

The LA County Division, comprised of 85 municipalities, is the largest of the League of California Cities' 16 regional divisions.

"Elected city officials and professional city staff attend division meetings throughout the year to share what

they are doing and advocate for their interests in Sacramento and regionally," according to the city statement. "The Division strives to provide its members with information and resources to assist in providing highquality service to cities and residents."

Pasadena City Notices

Introduced by Councilmember Williams

ORDINANCE NO. 7430

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF PASADENA ORDERING THE SUBMISSION OF A PROPOSITION INCURRING BONDED INDEBTEDNESS TO THE QUALIFIED ELECTORS OF THE CITY OF PASADENA AT THE GENERAL MUNICIPAL ELECTION TO BE HELD ON NOVEMBER 5, 2024, FOR THE PURPOSE OF FINANCING THE COST OF THE EARTHQUAKE RETROFIT, REPAIR AND UPDATE OF THE CENTRAL LIBRARY

The People of the City of Pasadena ordain as follows:

SECTION 1. PURPOSE AND INTENT.

Under Section 909 of the City of Pasadena Charter and pursuant to authority provided by the California Constitution, the California Government Code, the California Elections Code, the City Council (the “City Council”) of the City of Pasadena (the “City”) proposes to order the submission of a proposition authorizing the City to issue general obligation bonds (the “Bonds”) to the qualified voters of the City at the general municipal election to be held on November 5, 2024.

SECTION 2. FINDINGS

The City Council hereby makes the following findings with respect to the proposed measure for the Bonds:

A. The City owns the Central Library, which due to its age and condition, is in need of earthquake retrofit, repair and upgrade.

B. On July 22, 2024, the City Council adopted, by a two-thirds vote of all of its members, a resolution entitled “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Pasadena, California, Determining that the Public Interest and Necessity Demand the Earthquake Retrofit and Building Repairs and Upgrades to the Central Library and its Financing through the Issuance of General Obligation Bonds,” pursuant to which the City Council has found and determined, inter alia, that the public interest and necessity demand the issuance of general obligations bonds to finance the cost of the earthquake retrofit, repair and upgrade project for the Central Library (the “Project”).

C. In order to provide for the issuance by the City of general obligation bonds to provide for the financing for the Project, it is necessary for the City Council to adopt an ordinance ordering the submission of the proposition of incurring bonded indebtedness for such purpose to the qualified voters of the City at a municipal election.

D. The City Council desires to submit said ballot measure to the qualified voters of the City at a regular election to be held by the City on November 5, 2024, and to consolidate the bond election with other elections held within the City on that date.

E. Existing funds and funding sources of the City are inadequate to finance the Project and the City Council has evaluated alternative funding sources for the Project.

F. Assembly Constitutional Amendment No. 10, also known as Proposition 5 (“Proposition 5”), has qualified for the November 5, 2024 Statewide election. Proposition 5, if approved by the voters, inter alia, would lower the voter approval requirement for the issuance of general obligation bonds issued by a city to fund construction of “public infrastructure” from two-thirds (2/3) to fifty-five percent (55%) of the voting electorate, provided the bond authorization includes certain accountability requirements. Proposition 5 further provides that its terms, including the lower 55% voter approval requirements, would apply to any proposition authorizing the incurrence of general obligation bonds by a city approved at the same election as Proposition 5 (i.e., November 5, 2024). The City Council intends that the provisions of this Ordinance comply with the requirements of Proposition 5, and accordingly, if Proposition 5 is approved by the Statewide voters at the November 5, 2024 election, the proposition for the incurrence of the Bonds will be subject to the approval of 55% of the City electorate voting on the measure. The City Council further finds, for clarity, that if Proposition 5 is not approved by the Statewide voters, a two-thirds (2/3) vote of the City electorate voting on the measure will be required to approve the proposition for the incurrence of the Bonds. It is determined that the design, construction and improvements comprising the Project are “public infrastructure” within the meaning of Proposition 5.

structure built in the historic Pasadena Civic Center alongside the Pasadena City Hall and Civic Auditorium and is a cornerstone of the community's architectural and cultural heritage, forming a key part of Pasadena’s historical identity.

H. The Project will enable the Central Library to reopen after earthquake and seismic repairs, meet current fire safety regulations, replace the leaky roof, remove asbestos and lead paint, update outdated technology and mechanical systems, and restore library services and programs while maintaining the historic and architectural characteristic.

I. The Central Library promotes access to knowledge and learning by providing educational resources, supporting lifelong learning for residents of all ages crucial for personal and professional development, fostering a more informed and skilled community.

J. The Central Library offers various programs and services that cater to different community needs, including literacy programs, cultural events, and technological training, helping to bridge educational gaps and promote community engagement.

K. The Central Library acts as a vital resource for underserved populations, offering equal and free access to books, the internet, and other learning materials that might otherwise be inaccessible.

L. The Central Library provides a gateway to crucial opportunities by providing access to knowledge and educational resources enabling residents to pursue future opportunities and achieve their goals that are particularly transformative for individuals from low-income backgrounds.

M. The Central Library served as a refuge, especially for those experiencing homelessness, offering a temperaturecontrolled, safe space while providing a full-time Care Navigator from the Pasadena Public Health Department, providing essential social services not replicated at the library branches and which will return upon the reopening.

N. The Project not only aims to preserve the Central Library's historical essence but also to modernize its facilities and bring it into the 21st century ensuring that the Central Library continues to meet contemporary needs and can adapt to future demands, thereby sustaining its role as a critical community resource.

O. Beyond its educational role, the Central Library contributes to the City's broader mission of providing numerous critical support services that include offering a reliable space for community gatherings, growth, educational workshops, a location to seek assistance and needed support, an outlet for the arts, and as a shelter during emergencies.

P. The closure of the Central Library has significantly impacted library services in the City, as evidenced by key metrics comparing Fiscal Year 2019, when all libraries were open, to Fiscal Year 2023, with the Central Library closed, despite the continued operation of our branch libraries, and the absence of the Central Library has led to marked declines in various aspects of library usage, highlighting its critical role in the community.

SECTION 3. CALL FOR ELECTION.

The City Council hereby orders that there be submitted to the qualified voters of the City a proposition on incurring bonded indebtedness for the purposes set forth in this Ordinance, at the regular election to be held on November 5, 2024.

LA County health officials call for COVID precautions as cases rise

By Staff

TheLosAngeles CountyDepartment ofPublicHealth urged residents last week to take common-sense precautions to halt the spread of COVID-19, amid a doubling since May of several coronavirus metrics.

"As families return from summer travel and children in LA County prepare to go back to school in the coming weeks, protection from COVID-19 infection remains important, especially for those at high risk for severe illness," Public Health officials said in a statement.

Last week county health officials reported 452 average daily COVID-19 cases, an increase from the 229 cases four weeks ago. Reported cases are an undercount because the large number of at-home test results are not reported to the health department.

Wastewater concentrations of SARS CoV-2, the viral microorganism that causes a COVID-19 infection, are at

"44% of last winter's peak, double the 17% reported the first week of July, indicating increasing transmission in LA County," officials said. "Wastewater concentrations may provide more complete information about COVID-19 transmission levels than reported cases alone."

The county reported an average of 81.6 new COVID hospital admissions per day, a doubled increase from 41.4 admissions logged four weeks ago. The seven-day average number of daily COVID hospitalizations in LA County is 389, with 10% of those patients in intensive care units this past week.

Coronavirus-related deaths were relatively stable, 1.9 daily average COVID-19 deaths were reported this week, compared with 0.9 in early July.

"Changes in the death metric may be seen later than other metrics due to both the time needed to receive death certificates and the natural progression of the disease,"

officials said.

Since mid-May, coronavirus infections in LA County have consistently increased.

"In the past four weeks, reported COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations, virus concentrations in wastewater, and the percentage of positive COVID-19 tests have doubled," according to the county. "Being proactive to prevent illness can significantly reduce the risk of travel disruptions, last-minute cancellations, and inadvertently spreading illness, ensuring a more enjoyable end of summer season for everyone."

The health department urged vaccination and other

precautions to reduce the virus' spread.

"Vaccination remains the most powerful tool to protect against the severe effects of COVID-19," according to Public Health. An updated vaccine will be available this fall in LA County, and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends all people 6 months and older get the updated vaccine whether or not they have previously received a COVID-19 vaccine.

Additional doses of the 2023-24 vaccine are still available for county residents 65 and older, who can receive a dose of the updated vaccine four months after their prior

dose. Information on where to get the vaccine is online: ph.lacounty.gov/vaccines.

Anyone who suspects they have COVID or have had a recent virus exposure should get tested, officials said. Free tests are available countywide and at pharmacies through most insurance plans. More information on testing is at ph.lacounty.gov/ COVIDtests.

People who test positive for COVID-19 should stay away from others until they are fever-free for 24 hours without taking anti-fever medicine and symptoms have resolved, according to Public Health. Wearing masks when around other people "is necessary to reduce transmission for 10 days after testing positive or after symptoms started."

Free and low-cost medications that can help prevent serious illness from COVID are available in LA County, with more information at ph.lacounty.gov/acd/ ncorona2019/medication.

"Residentsshould continue taking commonsense precautions to avoid transmitting or becoming ill with COVID-19," health officials said. "This includes washing their hands often or using hand sanitizer, especially before eating, after sneezing or coughing, or when in public places, and considering mask use when in crowded indoor spaces."

Individuals should stay home if they show any illness symptoms, such as coughing, sneezing, fever or sore throat, officials advised. County residents should also consider letting friends and family know about their illness to promote caution about getting together if signs of infection are present. The county's Public Health InfoLine, 833-5400473, connects callers with answers to questions, free telehealth care for COVID-19 treatment and vaccination appointments, including for people who are homebound.

Man gets 16 to life for fatal stabbing in Anaheim

By Paul Anderson, City News Service

A29-year-old man was sentencedFriday to 16 years to life in prison for fatally stabbing a man in an Anaheim restaurant parking lot nearly four years ago.

Armando Andrei UrbinaMartinez was convicted April 9 of second-degree murder with a sentencing enhancement for the personal use of a deadly weapon.

Urbina-Martinez was convicted of killing 22-yearold Cody Stewart on Oct. 30, 2020, outside the Las Brisas Mexican restaurant, 1734 S. Euclid St.

Stewart and two other friends — Daniel Canales and Zachary Chavez — went to Harvey's Sports Bar at 1728 S. Euclid, but the bar was closed so they went to the restaurant in the same shopping center, prosecutors said.

When the restaurant closed for the night, the three got into a dispute with another group in the parking lot at about 2:15 a.m., Senior Deputy District Attorney Jeff Moore said.

Either Stewart or someone in his group made an insulting remark derogatory to homosexuals toward someone else in the parking lot, and that led ultimately to the fatal stabbing, Moore said.

Stewart's grandmother, Dianna Cowell, told Orange County Superior Court Judge Richard King that her grandson, "At 22, he was such an amazing young man." She added that "He was the heart of our family."

The victim's friend, Jonathan Kilgore, recalled how the two met in high school and became close. Stewart played college football and "wanted to give back as a coach" of high school sports, Kilgore said.

"Not only was he a great person, he was the life of the party," Kilgore said.

The "spontaneous" Stewart enjoyed traveling with Kilgore to Las Vegas, Palm Springs and once to Paris.

"We winged it, the whole trip," Kilgore said. "Life was never dull with Cody."

Family friend, Frank Chacon, said his daughter was

so close to Stewart that he imagined the two would one day get married.

"Perhaps he would have been father to my grandchildren, which would have been awesome for us," Chacon said.

Stewart was a "caring, gentle soul," who was also, "free- spirited," Chacon said.

Urbina-Martinez's family also praised the defendant's character and said they often pray for the victim and his family.

The defendant's mother, Maricela Martinez, said he was a "loving, responsible son, who always is taking care of me" and the rest of the family.

Urbina-Martinez has two children, who are 12 and 7,

she said.

The defendant's sister, Katherine Urbina-Martinez, said her younger brother is "compassionate, charismatic," and took it upon himself to care for the family when their father left when he was 11. She said he would take "odd jobs" around the neighborhood to help out.

The defendant's cousin, Ronnie Martinez, said he enlisted in the Marines at the urging of Urbina-Martinez.

"He is someone I look up to. He is someone I look for when I need help," he said. "I see him more as an older brother."

The defendant's wife, Mariana Urbina, said her husband has "expressed

remorse" since the stabbing. She said the family was "committed to supporting him" while he is in custody.

Moore argued for the 16-to-life punishment, saying the defendant the evening of the conflict was "drunk, having a bad night and engaged two individuals he didn't know ... and he escalated it into a fight."

Even though UrbinaMartinez did not throw the first punch, he introduced a "weapon meant to dominate a fight" into the conflict, Moore said.

"He ultimately goaded Cody Stewart into a fight," Moore said.

The defendant's attorney, Cameron Talley, argued that sometimes jurors get verdicts wrong as he said happened in this case. The jury deliberated for about six days, he noted.

Talley argued at trial that his client was acting in selfdefense.

Talley read a written statement from his client to the judge expressing sympathy to the victim's family.

"I want to express sorrow and anguish that someone died that night," he said. "My heart breaks (for the victim's family)."

He said, "If I could turn the block bac I would have simply left."

Urbina-Martinez said he was "committed to learning from this experience and becoming a better person and closer to God."

King said "there are just no winners in this case."

He added, "Someone who was dearly loved is lost and will be missed," referring to Stewart.

"And someone who is dearly loved in a moment will be lost for a period of time and will be missed. But there is a difference. Cody is not coming back," King said.

The judge said, "It goes down to that moment at the restaurant where the defendant decided to go and get a knife and go into a situation that didn't involve him."

Urbina-Martinez was given credit for 1,373 days in custody.

LA County again offers reward in Mitrice Richardson disappearance, death

By City News Service

The county Board of SupervisorsTuesday re-establisheda $20,000 reward offer for information leading to a conviction in the death of Mitrice Richardson, a woman who went missing after being released from the Malibu/Lost Hills Sheriff's Station in 2009.

The 24-year-old Cal State Fullerton graduate had been arrested Sept. 16, 2009, when she was unable to pay her $89 bill at Geoffrey's, a Malibu restaurant. Deputies also found some marijuana in her car and impounded it.

Richardson was released from the station in Calabasas a little after midnight the following morning without transportation, a cell phone or her purse. She disappeared soon after her release. Neighbors reported seeing a woman who may have been Richardson sleeping on a porch later that morning, but she was gone by the time deputies arrived. Sheriff's deputies and volunteers mounted extensive air and ground searches, fruitlessly. She remained missing until August 2010, when skeletal remains were found by state rangers searching an abandoned marijuana farm in the unincorporated Monte Nido area, about 30 miles from the sheriff's station. Using dental records, the remains were identified as Richardson.

The board extended the reward again in 2022 and increased it to $20,000 for any information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or people responsible for her disappearance and death, but that reward offer expired in May this year.

Malibu and Calabasas still have active reward offers totaling $20,000 in the case.

they found evidence in Richardson's diaries and text messages that she was suffering from bipolar disorder and may have been awake for as many as five nights when she had what appeared to be a mental breakdown on Sept. 16, 2009.

nel offered Ms. Richardson the choice to remain voluntarily at the station jail until the arrival of daylight hours or her transportation, she chose to leave the station jail," according to the report, copies of which were released by the Sheriff's Department.

The Board of Supervisors initially offered a $10,000 reward for information into Richardson's disappearance in 2009, before her remains were found. It was re-established in 2010 and again in 2021.

The exact cause of Richardson's death was never determined, but authorities at the time insisted there was no sign of foul play -- a contention challenged by her family.

Richardson's disappearance led to an outcry by her relatives and others about the actions of sheriff's deputies in their handling of her arrest and release.

Investigators have said

Her mother, Latice Sutton, contended that authorities should have recognized her daughter's erratic behavior as abnormal and given her a mental health evaluation. Her father said she should have been placed on a 72-hour psychiatric hold, rather than being released.

The county's Office of Independent Review concluded in a report that deputies at the station acted properly the night Richardson was released.

"Although station person-

"... OIR has closely monitored the department's actions regarding Ms. Richardson's arrest and subsequent release from custody and each phase of the department's efforts to learn what occurred at Geoffrey's restaurant and at the station and to search for her," the report states.

"As a result of the monitoring process, OIR has concluded that the station personnel acted legally and reasonably in taking Ms. Richardson into custody and then releasing her from

custody."

Richardson's family sued the county, and a settlement of roughly $900,000 was reached in 2011.

Anyone with information on the case was urged to call the Los Angeles Police Department at 213-486-6900 or the sheriff's department at 323-890-5500.
