Report: Big Tobacco targets youth, communities of color in Solano Todd R. Hansen thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — More menthol cigarettes are sold in Solano than any other county in the state, the result – officials said – of a targeted marketing strategy toward communities of color and youth.

“Solano County – one of the most diverse counties in the country – has become a leading target of the tobacco

industry,” Kirbee Brooks, the county Tobacco Prevention Project coordinator, said in a statement released Thursday by the county administration.

“Big Tobacco aggressively promotes menthol cigarettes, particularly among communities of color and the young. Mentholated tobacco products are typically aimed at people of color and our youth because menthol temporarily masks the harshness of

tobacco smoke, making it easier for new users to get hooked,” he said in the statement.

His comments follow the release of the third Healthy Stores for a Healthy Community survey, which is taken every three years.

The survey shows more than 96% of retailers stock mentholated products, compared to 88% statewide and See Tobacco, Page A9

covid-19 pandemic

More than half of Solano’s adult population has been vaccinated thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — More than 51% of Solano County’s adult population – 16 or older – has received at least one vaccination shot, the Public Health Division reported Thursday.

In raw numbers, 176,000 individuals have received a shot – about 51.5% of the adult population – of whom 113,000 are fully vaccinated, Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said in a phone interview.

Matyas said the county will continue to hold mass vaccination clinics at the fairgrounds in Vallejo, but noted that neighboring counties are starting to see fewer people show up for their events.

Part of the explanation, he said, is the counties are targeting the part of the population that

are less inclined to get the vaccinations, something Solano County hopes to avoid as case numbers continue to keep the county mired in the morerestrictive red tier.

Matyas called it “unfortunate” that the county is not closer to graduating into the orange tier.

Solano County had 40 new cases Thursday, well above the 27-case daily average threshold that needs to be met over a 14-day period to get into orange.

Vacaville’s 20 new cases represented half of those confirmed cases.

Matyas said the tracing evidence clearly shows the cause of the case numbers is younger residents hanging out in social gatherings.

The total number of cases rose to 32,126, the

SUISUN VALLEY — There are some changes coming to the American Armory Museum. Guests at Saturday’s Military Vehicle Demonstration Day and Car Show will get a look at new and future exhibits.

Under construction is what will become a tunnel where guests will enter and view items, including an Arabic policeman’s vest and a scene from the 2109 death of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

A new room is being built to look like Iraq, said Geoff Lippman, the museum’s general manager.

Visitors will then travel back into earlier wars such as Vietnam and World War II, where they can view Gen. George C. Patton’s jeep.

Grand jury impressed by Solano Elections Office during Covid times Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Despite a series of missteps in election materials and ballot addressing – not all the fault of the Registrar of Voters Office – the 2020-21 Solano County grand jury was generous in its praise of the Elections Office.

“This year’s (state) requirement that ballots be mailed to all voters did not present a challenge for the (Registrar of Voters),” the grand jury report released Wednesday stated.

“The civil grand jury members were impressed with the integrity and attention to detail that the ROV personnel displayed.

The ROV staff demonstrated high regard for

transparency, the individual’s right to vote, and the accuracy of the process,” the report stated.

John Gardner, the assistant registrar of voters, said there were a lot of grand jury members who participated in watching the election process.

“It was good to see the grand jury felt we were successful with the election, and we were able to overcome a lot of challenges,” Gardner said.

He also found most of the comments and suggestions by the grand jury to be reasonable.

The grand jury issued four findings, each with a recommendation.

The Registrar of Voters Office has yet to file a formal response.

The first of those

findings addresses the upcoming redistricting of political boundaries, which requires mapping.

The report states only one member of the Elections Office staff “has mapping experience.” The grand jury recommends hiring another experienced staffer.

Gardner said the grand jury is correct about staffing. He said the county is looking to hire a person with the necessary skills, but that person is likely to land in the Information Technology office, with the intent of using the employee to help with the mapping needs.

He said other county employees with related skills also will likely be used during redistricting.

The grand jury also

recommends that the county “coordinate with the California Secretary of State to ensure state Voter Information Guides are delivered before the county mails ballots to voters,” a recommendation resulting from a finding that some voters cast ballots prior to receiving those guides.

The third finding noted that the Elections Office was “reluctant to terminate the employment of underperforming temporary workers with concerns that the timeconsuming hiring process might result in not having sufficient staff to handle the workload.”

The grand jury recommends the office work with See Grand, Page A4

BENICIA — There are no new details being released from the investigations into the death of a pedestrian who was struck Nov. 11 by a Benicia patrol car.

Scott Hamers, 48, was hit and killed about 2 a.m. on the 1900 block of East Second Street, north of Interstate 780,

where the road goes under the overpass, the CHP reported at the time.

It remains unclear where Hamers was when he was struck or how fast the police officer was traveling when the incident occurred. The CHP did report that the officer was not responding to a call at the time.

The identity of the officer has not been released.

The Benicia Police Department reported that the officer remains on administrative leave pending the outcomes of the investigations by the California Highway Patrol and Solano County District Attorney’s Office.

A spokesman for the Golden Gate Division of the CHP said Wednesday the incident is still being examined and these types of matters tend to take

an extended amount of time to complete.

The investigation is being conducted by the division’s MultiDisciplinary Accident Investigation Team.

The Solano County District Attorney’s Office has its own investigation, which a spokeswoman said was ongoing so there was nothing to add to the reporting at this time.

FAIRFIELD — A Dixon woman has been found guilty of assault with a deadly weapon and inflicting corporal injury to the father of her child, the Solano County District Attorney’s Office announced.

The jury rendered the decision rivera Wednesday in Department 1 of the Solano County Superior Court.

Melissa Rivera is scheduled to return to court June 2 to be sentenced by Judge Jeffrey C. Kauffman, the District Attorney’s Office reported.

The case involved Rivera throwing a knife

at the victim, causing what was described as a “deep laceration to his forearm.” The man drove himself to Sutter Davis Hospital, after which the treating nurse reported the incident.

T he incident dates back to Oct. 14, 2019, when the couple had been in a verbal dispute that escalated.

The District Attorney’s Office said the victim tried to leave before the physical altercations started.

The case was prosecuted by Deputy District Attorney Christine De Leo. The investigating officer was Eddie Lavorico of the Dixon Police Department.

From Page A3 the county Department of Human Resources “to streamline the process of hiring temporary ROV workers.”

Gardner said it was less an issue of underperforming as it was to place the individuals to do the tasks they were best suited to accomplish. Finding individuals with the correct skills, he said, was made more difficult by Covid-19.

The final grand jury recommendation is for Solano County to work with other counties to “encourage” the state to join the Electronic Registration Information Center.

The center, often referred to as ERIC, is a nonprofit that assists counties in “improving the accuracy of voter rolls,” the grand jury report states.

The organization further states as a goal to “increase access to voter registration for all eligible citizens.” The nonprofit was formed in 2012 with the guidance of The Pew Charitable Trusts. It is governed and managed by member states.

Gardner said he thinks it is a good idea for the state to join ERIC because it would create an intra-state check for voters who move from one state to another.

However, it would only

be effective, he said, if California’s neighboring states, and other common states where people move, such as Texas, are part of the system, too.

Among the issues the Elections Office faced were printing errors that affected voter guides in Dixon, Benicia and Vallejo.

Some Dixon residents also claimed the county sent ballots for a water district issue to residents who did not live in the district, but the county said the addresses match up with the boundaries provided.

There were also ballots for certain City Council districts that were sent to Vacaville residents who live outside those districts.

E le c t io n s T he Office confirmed there were issues that had to be resolved.

“A total of 58 voters received the incorrect ballot in November. Of the 58 voters, 22 of them possibly voted with the incorrect ballot for the Vacaville City Council District 3 contest; however, the contest was decided by a margin of 507 votes,” a staff report to the Board of Supervisors stated.

New McCoy Creek Park Play structure now open Daily Republic Staff

drnews@dailyrepublic.net

SUISUN CITY — The city’s Recreation, Parks and Marina Department hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony Monday for the new McCoy Creek Park play structure.

The project was funded in part by lighting and landscaping district assessment fees collected from residents in the area.

The previous play structure had reached the end of its safe and useful life and was becoming a hazard to users, according to a press release from the city.

The Recreation, Parks and Marina Department coordinated the replacement project. A grant in excess of $15,000 helped reduce the cost to residents who pay into the lighting and landscaping district through their property taxes.

“It is so important for kids to get outside and play. Some kids don’t have a great backyard to play in,” Lorraine Meek, vice chairwoman of the Recreation, Parks, Marina and Arts Commission, said in the press release.

“For the council, it’s about making an investment in our community and providing a deeper sense of community,” Wilson said in the press release.

Biden administration proposes restoring state’s right to set car pollution rules Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — The Transportation Department a n nou nc ed Thursday it was withdrawing part of a Trump-era rule that blocked states from setting their own tough car pollution standards, reversing actions by the Trump administration that weakened California’s ability to fight climate change.

The newly proposed rule change, which will be subject to a 30-day comment period, would restore California’s authority to set fuel efficiency and greenhouse gas emission standards for cars and SUVs, and to require car companies to sell more electric vehicles.

The agency’s action Thursday suggested the Biden administration was laying the groundwork to eventually reinstate California’s legal waiver, which was granted by the Obama administration under the authority of the 1970 Clean Air Act. The waiver had allowed the state to set stricter auto emission and fuel efficiency rules than even the federal government. That power was widely considered one of the state’s most effective weapons in the fight against climate change and air pollution.

Trump revoked California’s waiver in 2019 shortly before his administration issued a new set of fuel economy

The change also affected the District of Columbia and the 13 states that follow California’s tighter standards.

California and nearly two dozen other states sued the administration, challenging the decision.

Major auto manufacturers, including General Motors, Fiat Chrysler and Toyota, joined the lawsuit on Trump’s side in an effort to block the state’s tough fuel economy rules.

They quickly abandoned the cause after President Joe Biden was elected.

“The Trump administration should never have challenged California’s legal authority to set our own vehicle emission standards,” Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., said in a statement. “The Clean Air Act clearly gives us the right to protect the air Californians breathe and I want to thank the Biden administration for dropping this frivolous challenge.”

8-year-old handles main duty, role for virtual play Amy Maginnis-Honey

amaginnis@dailyrepublic.net

SUISUN CITY — One screening of “Little” was all Charlotte “Coco” Stats, 8, needed to decide she could do her own play.

When her mother, Maria Stats, mentioned the young lead actress had picked, produced and starred in the film, Coco quickly asked, “People can do that? Can I do that?”

Her mom’s reply: “If you can find a show that we can do in quarantine with just who we have here and pay for it, sure.”

“Well, that was a mistake, because I wasn’t serious. How was she going to do that?”

Maria Stats said.

Fellow kid wonder Xathanael Todd, 17, has been in lockdown with the family since the beginning.

Coco enlisted him and her big sister, twotime Arty winner Molly James Stats, 15, to help her find a show.

Molly Stats and Todd helped run the On the Fringe youth so they started looking for small youth shows. They didn’t find a single one small enough or that they liked enough.

Then they remembered the Elephant and Piggie story, “We Are in a Play,” which debuted the junior version at Junior Theatre Festival West 2019.

That version was not available. The Kennedy Center version was.

It was an hour long, and after looking it over, the three thought they could pull it off. They then figured out the cost and told Coco, Maria Stats said.

Coco knew her next step. She called her maternal grandfather and said, “I need your money.”

He pitched in.

Bonta confirmed as state attorney general Tribune Content Agency SACRAMENTO — The state Legislature confirmed Democratic Assemblyman Rob Bonta as California attorney general on Thursday, backing the appointment of an advocate for criminal justice reform who told his colleagues in hearings this week that he would hold law enforcement accountable for excessive force and other misconduct.

Bonta, 49, will be the first Filipino American to serve as the state’s top cop when he takes the oath of office to head the Department of Justice at a ceremony on Friday.

He was previously the first Filipino American to serve in the state Assembly when he was elected in 2012 representing an East Bay Area district that also includes Oakland and San Leandro.

“Assemblyman Bonta will bring his passion for justice and his concern about people to every aspect of this important job,” Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins, a Democrat, said during the floor debate before the 29-6 confirmation vote.

Bonta was emotional as he thanked his colleagues in the Assembly, where the vote was 62-0.

Ed Hernandez is at right. humbled, deeply appreciative and very, very honored,” Bonta said. “I am clear-eyed about the challenges that lie ahead for the state of California, the Department of Justice.”

cases and abolish the death penalty, and a passed law phasing out the use of private prisons and immigration detention centers.

“California DOJ must be an organization that infuses more justice, more humanity, more fairness and more safety into our institutions,” Bonta told the Senate Rules Committee during a confirmation hearing on Wednesday.

“There are still too many who are wronged in California,” he added, noting those who are victims of human trafficking, corporate misconduct, hate crimes and “too many who are treated unfairly by the many broken parts of the criminal justice system and who deserve more justice, more humanity and a second chance.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom nominated Bonta for the job last month to fill the vacancy created when Xavier Becerra was appointed by President Joe Biden to become U.S. Health and Human Services secretary. Newsom had been under pressure from Asian and Pacific Islander leaders who supported Bonta as the right person to address a recent increase of violence against Asian Americans. Last month, a white gunman in the Atlanta area allegedly killed eight people, including six women of Asian descent.

After death, DMX scores highestcharting position Tribune Content Agency A little over a week after his death at age 50, DMX has scored his highest position on Billboard’s Hot 100 singles chart.

After several of late rapper’s albums reappeared on the Billboard 200 chart after news of his passing broke on April 9, three of his songs have now returned to the top pop singles chart.

T he three-t ime Grammy Award-nominated artist’s “Ruff Ryders’ Anthem,” which he recorded in 1998, blasted up to the 16th spot this week, making it the song’s best showing on the chart to date.

The Swizz Beatzpr oduc ed t rack ’s previous high was No.

94, of which it reached in February 1999. “ Ru f f R yder s ’ Anthem” is now DMX’s highest-charting single, officially besting his previous record-holder, where he joined fellow Ruff Ryder Entertainment act The Lox on “Money, Power & Respect.” Produced by Hitmen members Deric “D-Dot” Angelettie and Ron “Amen-Ra” Lawrence, the banger also included vocals from Lil Kim and peaked in 17th chart position.

In addition, “Ruff Ryders’ Anthem” also experienced a whopping surge on streaming platforms, increasing 477% – 16.6 million times – according to data provided to Billboard.

over what has occurred that some of them express that anger publicly, aggressively and in some cases, violently. With that said, it’s OK to be angry. What matters is how you react to that anger.

While the U.S. continues to experience more civil unrest and outrage from multiple incidents of excessive use of force by law enforcement on mainly Black men and women, I’m hopeful that the conviction of Derek Chauvin will make it apparent to law enforcement leadership that consequences change behavior.

If you break the law and violate human rights with unnecessary violence, you should be prosecuted.

Being a sworn police officer should not exonerate you from breaking the law. As a matter of fact, you should be held to an even higher moral and ethical standard. There is even more pressure from the public and national leadership, including President Joe Biden, for new law enforcement policies and police reform.

IMPORTANT ADDRESSES

o Capitol insiders, the term “tort wars” is shorthand for decades of political wrangling over the rules governing lawsuits for personal injuries – who can sue and collect damages for which actions.

The rules are a mix of legislation and appellate court interpretations, and with untold billions of dollars at stake, lawyers who specialize in personal injury suits and their political allies, such as unions and consumer advocates, clash constantly with business groups and insurers.

The former seek to expand opportunities to sue and the latter resist such expansions and occasionally try to narrow the scope of liability.

That conflict has generated Dan Walters some memorable events over the decades. In 1975, for instance, a newly inaugurated Gov. Jerry Brown signed a landmark law, dubbed MICRA, that imposed tight limits on “pain and suffering” damages in medical malpractice cases. Next year, nearly a half-century later, California voters will decide whether the $250,000 cap should remain in place or be lifted, the latest of many attempts to undo the 1975 law.

A particularly colorful episode occurred in 1987, when lobbyists for personal injury lawyers and rival interests negotiated an armistice, finalized at Frank Fat’s restaurant in Sacramento with its provisions jotted down on a napkin. The “napkin deal,” as it came to be known, reduced liability for harmful products, such as cigarettes, and gave lawyers higher fees in medical malpractice cases.

The truce was short-lived, however, and the warring factions soon resumed hostilities in the Legislature and in ballot measures. Tort wars are a subset of the perpetual conflict that pits business, insurance and employer interests against unions, trial lawyers, consumer advocates and environmental groups over a broad array of specific issues.

Although the latter coalition is closely allied with the Legislature’s dominant Democrats, it has not been particularly successful over the years in advancing its agendas – and that’s true of tort wars as well, exemplified by multiple failures to change the MICRA cap.

However, with expanded Democratic majorities in the Legislature, new efforts are being mounted this year to expand lawsuit opportunities.

The Civil Justice Association of California, a business-backed lobby that does battle with Consumer Attorneys of California and other pro-lawsuit interests, has issued a list of bills it says would “threaten to undermine fairness and balance in the state’s civil justice system.”

Most would create “private rights of action,” empowering lawyers to enforce new state laws through lawsuits. One example is Assembly Bill 95, carried by Assemblyman Evan Low, a Cupertino Democrat, that would require employers with 25 or more employees to provide 10 days of paid bereavement leave, and allow lawsuits to enforce it.

Employers see the threat of such suits, with potentially heavy damages, as a tool to extract concessions and earn fat fees for lawyers.

However, advocates say private rights of action are needed to discourage employers from flouting the law.

As noted earlier, most tort war clashes involve legislation that would expand opportunities to sue and collect monetary damages. But there are occasional exceptions and one is Senate Bill 332, which would reduce the likelihood of lawsuits for using controlled burns to counter the threat of wildfires.

The measure is being carried by Sen. Bill Dodd, a Napa Democrat whose district, which includes Solano County, has been especially victimized by recurrent wildfires. It’s supported by agricultural and environmental groups, Indian tribes that have traditionally employed controlled burns, and the University of California. However, it draws opposition from Consumer Attorneys of California and, oddly, insurance companies that usually oppose the lawyer lobby.

It’s not the first time that tort wars have generated strange bedfellows.

has been needed for some time to keep up with the expanding workload. That, too, could yield partisan benefits for Democrats, if more modest ones. It might be easier to find support for such a measure if the new vacancies were stretched out over time so that future presidents and Senates would be responsible for filling many of the new positions.

As for the push by congressional Democrats to add four justices now, it’s hard to see the point. Their threat to play constitutional hardball just as viciously as Republican leader Mitch McConnell isn’t going to impress anyone if those Democrats don’t have anywhere close to the votes to back up their threat. Nor is it likely that seeking four new justices will increase pressure to compromise and, say, expand the court by one or two slots.

The effort is far more likely to backfire, giving Republicans an easy target to rile themselves up over, while only frustrating any Democrats who think there’s any serious chance they can succeed. Sure, they aren’t the first members of Congress to do a little grandstanding, but there are far better causes available for that.

The red tier is for counties with a substantial spread of the virus. The orange tier designates moderate virus transmission, while the yellow tier is reserved for counties where the spread of the virus is deemed to be minimal.

Restrictions to slow the spread of the virus are eased as counties move from purple to red, red to orange and orange to yellow.

Solano County is the only Bay Area county to remain in the red tier. All other Bay Area counties are in the orange tier, as is neighboring Yolo County.

“D.C. statehood, unfortunately, is part of a continuing threat of not allowing people their right to vote, to representation,” Schumer said.

WASHINGTON — The House passed a bill Thursday that would make Washington the 51st state, but the bill’s journey is far from over.

Democrats held together to vote in favor of D.C. statehood, and no Republicans crossed party lines to join them.

Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer, a bill co-sponsor, lauded the House action in his remarks on the floor Thursday morning, citing District residents’ tax payments and military and jury service as credentials in favor of statehood.

The debate over D.C. statehood has “taken a rather dark turn,” he said, accusing Republicans of failing to put up a meritorious argument against statehood and instead denigrating the District’s residents, nearly half of whom are Black.

When the bill passed, a single cheer could be heard from the gallery. But the celebration felt muted, as advocates faced the reality that the bill faces an uphill battle against the Senate filibuster.

While the Senate bill already has 44 co-sponsors, it would require bipartisan support to overcome the 60-vote threshold. And even some Senate Democrats have yet to say whether they would support it.

Rep. Jamie Raskin, who argued for the bill during debate on the House floor, said a backlog of legislation is starting to build in the Senate and statehood may not be the bill to break the dam. But it might be a consideration if Democrats were to eliminate the

Additionally, the survey found that more than 90% of Solano County-based retailers sell flavored, non-cigarette tobacco products, “including newly released products (such as) chewable pouches, recreational nicotine gum, e-cigarettes and vape liquid,” the county reported. “A similar number of stores offer cigarillos (little cigars) by the pack – half even sell loose cigars and cigarillos. All these products are popular with younger individuals and are predominantly targeted toward African American communities.”

The survey results also indicate that nearly 40% of retailers market tobacco in kid-friendly locations, and even more – nearly 80% – display unhealthy storefront ads. “All told, every Solano County tobacco indicator was higher than the statewide average.”

An email seeking comment was sent to the National Association of Tobacco Outlets, and a phone message was left with the Tobacco Merchants Association. The DR did not receive replies.

“The tobacco industry continues to reinvent itself and its products to appeal to new customers,” Robin Cox, the bureau chief of Solano County Health Promotion and Community Wellness, said in the county statement.

“They strategically target specific communities of color and lower economic areas with products that, when used as directed, kill. Despite decades of progress, the industry continues to imagine new ways to remain profitable, with the true cost being our community’s health. Solano County is working closely with the community and local retailers to address this disturbing practice,” Cox said in the statement.

The survey shows that 95.5% of the retailers in Solano County that sell tobacco products offer menthol cigarettes, including all the tobacco retailers in Dixon, Vacaville and Vallejo.

The data show 94.1% of tobacco retailers in Fairfield offer those products, while 92.3% in Suisun City

Solano County’s menu of choices also includes “helping retailers find profit-making healthier alternatives,” the county statement said.

The county noted that the tobacco industry filed a referendum immediately after Gov. Gavin Newsom in August signed the ban on most menthol and flavored tobacco products. The legislation was supported by 84 of 89 Democrats in the state Legislature, and eight of 30 Republicans.

The referendum goes to the voters in November 2022.

“It’s our job to stay one step ahead,” Nafiza Khan, co-chairwoman of Tobacco Free Solano, a coalition of community leaders and volunteers, said in the county statement.

“That means we must fight locally to reduce menthol and other flavors in our community now.

Each day of delay means another young person addicted to tobacco. It means more lives lost due to Covid-19 because tobacco causes or exacerbates many of the underlying health conditions that lead to complications,” Khan said in the statement.

High court OKs life in prison without parole Biden eyeing capital gains tax for some juveniles convicted of murder Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld a life term in prison without parole for a defendant who was 15 when he fatally stabbed his grandfather in Mississippi, ruling that a sentencing judge need not decide that the young person was “permanently incorrigible.”

The 6-3 decision retreats somewhat from a pair of earlier rulings, which said that such life sentences for minors convicted of murder should be extremely rare and limited to cases in which there was no reason to hope the young person could be rehabilitated.

Twenty-five states have abolished life terms with no hope for parole for offenders under 18.

But Justice Sonia Sotomayor said such prison terms remain shockingly common in parts of the Deep South, particularly for young people of color.

As of last year, “Louisiana had imposed LWOP (Life Without Parole) on an astonishing 57% of eligible juvenile offenders” since 2012, when the court called for restricting such sentences, she said.

In 2016, the court gave these inmates a chance to seek a new sentence with possible parole, but the Mississippi courts have rejected one-fourth of such appeals, she said.

“The harm of from these sentences will not fall equally,” Sotomayor added. “The racial disparities in juvenile LWOP sentencing are stark: 70% of all youth sentenced to LWOP are children of color,” she said, citing a study from the Juve-

Samuel Corum/Getty Images/TNS

The U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C. nile Law Center.

Five years ago, the court gave new hope to the more than 2,000 inmates who had been sentenced to life terms for crimes they committed as minors. The justices said they had a right to seek a new sentencing hearing and possible parole in the future. But the court’s opinion did not say precisely what judges must consider in deciding such cases.

At issue Thursday was whether the defendant’s life term with no parole should be set aside unless the judges concluded he was “incorrigible” and could not be rehabilitated.

The justices divided along ideological lines, with the six conservatives in the majority and the three liberals in dissent.

Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh, speaking for the court in Jones vs. Mississippi, said judges are required to weigh the defendant’s age as a mitigating factor before imposing a punishment for a homicide. “The court’s decision today carefully follows” the earlier rulings, which did not pro-

hibit such life terms, he said. Kavanaugh added that the sentencing decision remains in the hands of the judge who heard the case, and the judge need not go further and decide the defendant was beyond redemption.

“Today the court guts” its earlier rulings restricting such life terms, Sotomayor said in a sharp dissent for three liberals. She noted that one of the decisions held that “a lifetime in prison is a disproportionate sentence for all but the rarest children, those whose crimes reflect ‘irreparable corruption.’”

The outcome reflects the retirement of Justice Anthony M. Kennedy and the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Kennedy had repeatedly spoken out against harsh punishments for juvenile offenders, and he wrote the court’s ruling that ended capital punishment for them, as well as those that limited the circumstances for imposing life prison terms on those under 18.

Sotomayor said Thursday’s ruling means that even if a “juvenile’s crime

reflects ‘unfortunate yet transient immaturity’, he can be sentenced to die in prison,” quoting a passage from Kennedy’s earlier opinion. Justices Stephen G. Breyer and Elena Kagan joined the dissent.

The case before the court began in 2004 when Brett Jones, age 15, was living with his grandparents Bertis and Madge in a small town in northern Mississippi. He and his grandfather exchanged angry words when it was learned that Jones’ girlfriend was in a bedroom upstairs. The two later fought in the kitchen, and the teenager stabbed his grandfather and fled.

He was convicted of the murder and at the time, state law mandated a sentence of life in prison without parole.

The Supreme Court overturned such mandatory sentences in 2012 and ruled in 2016 inmates may seek a new and lesser sentence. But a judge decided the life term was the proper sentence for Jones, and that decision was upheld by the state courts.

In upholding the sentence, Kavanaugh said such sentencing decisions should remain in the hands of judges who can weigh all the facts.

Moreover, “our holding today does not preclude the states from imposing additional sentencing limits in cases involving defendants under 18 convicted of murder,” he said.

“States may categorically prohibit life without parole for all offenders under 18.

Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden will propose almost doubling the capital gains tax rate for wealthy individuals to 39.6%, which, coupled with an existing surtax on investment income, means that federal tax rates for investors could be as high as 43.4%, according to people familiar with the proposal.

The plan would boost the capital gains rate to 39.6% for those earning $1 million or more, an increase from the current base rate of 20%, the

people said on the condition of anonymity because the plan is not yet public.

A 3.8% tax on investment income that funds Obamacare would be kept in place, pushing the tax rate on returns on financial assets higher than the top rate on wage and salary income, they said.

Stocks slid on news about the plan, with the S&P 500 Index down as much as 0.6% after climbing 0.2% earlier.

The Nasdaq Composite fell 0.4% as of 1:15 p.m. after rising as much as 0.5%. Ten-year Treasury yields erased gains.

32 counts of attempted murder added to Colorado shooting suspect’s charges Tribune Content Agency COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The 22-year-old Arvada man accused of killing 10 people inside a King Soopers grocery store in Boulder last month now faces more than 50 charges in connection with the shooting.

Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa was previously charged alissa with 10 counts of first-degree murder and first-degree attempted murder of a police officer in the 20th Judicial District Court.

On Wednesday, a motion was filed to charge

the alleged shooter with an additional 32 counts of first-degree attempted murder – 19 of them for attempting to kill police officers, according to the court document.

The motion separated each attempted murder ch a r ge i nto three categories: civilians (both employees and customers), “first law enforcement entry into King Soopers” and “second law enforcement into King Soopers.”

According to the court document, Officers Bryan Capobianco and Pam Gignac were among the first to enter the store

along with Officer Eric Talley, 51, who was killed.

Additionally, the shooter has been charged with 10 counts of possession of a prohibited high-capacity magazine while committing a crime and one count of first-degree assault.

The court document did not specify how many rounds were within the alleged shooter’s magazines, but Colorado state law prohibits more than 15 rounds per magazine.

Authorities say Alissa entered the King Soopers at 3600 Table Mesa Drive in south Boulder on March 22 and began firing just after 2:30 p.m. During the massacre, customers, employees and one Boulder

police officer were killed.

The shooter was eventually shot in the leg during an exchange of gunfire with responding officers. The shooter stripped to his underwear and put his weapon down before surrendering to police, according to court documents.

He was escorted out of the store to an ambulance that brought him to a local hospital for his gunshot wound.

Officials have not indicated any possible motive for the attack.

The shooter currently faces 54 charges in connection to the shooting and is scheduled to appear in court May 25.

MEL coaches name Vikes’ Hughes Player of the Year Daily Republic staff

SPORTS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

All-league selection meetings can sometimes be contentious affairs, but when the Monticello Empire League coaches met on Tuesday night their hearts were on the same page.

The group selected Vanden’s Daniel Hughes, who died Sunday after suffering a gunshot wound on April 4, as the MEL’s Player of the Year for the spring 2021 season.

“I was going to nominate Daniel for Player of the Year but the representative from Rodri-

guez beat me to it,” Vanden coach Sean Murphy said. “All the coaches agreed that it was appropriate. Daniel had two tremendous games on both sides of the ball against league opponents (Wood and Vacaville) and against Cardinal Newman.”

After the shooting incident the Vikings dedicated their final two games, victories over Armijo and Rodriguez, to Hughes.

“Daniel was a very popular young man who touched the lives of students, student-athletes and adults throughout the high schools in our league and county,” Murphy said. “The

schools in our county have shown a tremendous amount of support for Daniel and his family. I was touched that the all the coaches agreed that it was fitting to honor Daniel’s character and all the hard work he had put into athletics by naming him Player of the Year.”

The other top honors were earned by league champion Vacaville, Back of the Year going to running back Darian LeonGuerrero and Lineman of the Year to Jacob Edmonds.

Joining Leon-Guerrero and Edmonds from Vacaville on the first team offense are linemen

Javier Sixto and Garrett Schoep, wide receiver Logan Cunningham, quarterback Ryan Vaughan and kicker Ariel Till.

Vanden’s first team picks on offense are Hughes and Johnte McDowell at receiver, Zachary Nangauta on the line and Linairus Agee at running back.

Also on the first team offense are Wood’s Ken Tilford (athlete) and Avery Beal (lineman) and Rodriguez’s Anthony Homa (receiver).

Vacaville’s first team defensive selections include Edmonds and Blake Espino on the line, Michael Otterstedt at linebacker,

and Cunningham, Timothy Plowman and Geremiah Brown at defensive back.

Making the first team defense from Vanden are Erick Diez on the line, Kaden McLeod and Michael Belk at linebacker and Jayden Robinson and Amarion York at defensive back.

Wood landed Krishna Clay on the line, Josiah Flores at linebacker and Tilford at punter on the first team defense.

Vacaville High graduate Nevaeh DeSouza of the University of California women’s gymnastics team earned four AllAmerican recognitions in the NCAA Championships at

Vacaville grad DeSouza earns 4 All-American honors at NCAAs PFARMER@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

Prior to this season, the University of California, Berkeley women’s gymnastics program had earned seven AllAmerican honors with the lone first-team award coming in 1992.

The Golden Bears more than matched that total at last week’s NCA A Cha mpionships in Fort Worth, Texas, with Nevaeh DeSouza by herself claiming four Women’s Collegiate Gymnastics Association A ll-

American awards.

The Vacaville High graduate earned firstteam honors on vault (fourth, 9.8875) and second-team on beam (fifth, 9.9125), floor (sixth, 9.9250) and all-around (eighth, 39.525).

As a team, Cal finished third in the semifinals April 16 with a score of 197.3625, the 10thbest in program history and its best ever in the NCAA Championships, with Florida edging them out for second place and a spot in the next day’s finals by 0.075.

Muhindo Kapapa (Armijo) put up a season’s worth of stats in San Diego’s spring finale, a 20-19 loss to Valparaiso.

In making seven tackles, five of them solo, Kapapa had four tackles for loss, 2 1/2 sacks, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery. Zamir Wallace (Fairfield resident, De La Salle) recorded two solo tackles with brother Amir Wallace (Fairfield resident, De La Salle) making one.

For the Toreros (4-2, 3-2 PFL) on the season,

Kapapa had 20 tackles, eight solo, seven tackles for loss, 2 1/2 sacks, two forced fumbles, one fumble recovery, one pass breakup and one quarterback hurry.

Amir Wallace contributed 23 tackles, 14 solo, with three breakups, one forced fumble, one recovery and half a tackle for loss, while Zamir Wallace had 13 tackles, seven solo, with one interception and four breakups.

VACAVILLE — Hazyl Gray fired a two-hit shutout with 12 strikeouts and helped her cause by crushing a home run and driving in six runs as the Vanden High softball team clinched its first outright Monticello Empire League championship with a 10-0 blanking of Wood, Wednesday.

Gray finished the day 3-for-4, adding a triple.

Mia Zabat, Tai Wilson and Shawnese HogueLacy each had two hits and an RBI with Wilson stealing three bases.

The Vikings (10-0, 9-0 MEL) started off with a run in the top of the first inning, adding three in the third, two in the fourth and four in the sixth as Zabat, Wilson, Gray and Mia Santos each scored twice.

Rodriguez 8, Armijo 4: At Armijo, the Mustangs (8-2, 6-2) nailed down second place in the MEL by doubling up the Royals.

MERCURY NEWS

Tribune Content Agency First, it was Ohio State’s Justin Fields. Then it was Alabama’s Mac Jones. Now, with the NFL draft just a week away, it’s North Dakota State’s Trey Lance.

Yes, we’ve officially hit peak draft rumor season when each new report needs to be viewed through a cynic’s lens. Every draft pundit, reporter or former NFL executive would have us believe he or she has exclusive insight on which of the three quarterbacks the 49ers will take with the third overall pick next Thursday night.

Only 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch truly know which guy the team intends to choose as it looks for a long-term replacement for Jimmy Garoppolo. And while they’ve been adept at keeping that a secret, it hasn’t deterred the experts

from guaranteeing us they know who the new 49ers rookie quarterback will be.

The rumors and proclamations began as soon as the 49ers pulled off the massive deal with Miami to move from the No. 12 pick to the No. 3 pick on March 26. With Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence virtually guaranteed to be taken by Jacksonville at No. 1 and the Jets expected to grab BYU’s Zach Wilson next, the 49ers are essentially on the clock to grab the third quarterback in this year’s class.

The NFL Network’s Rich Eisen dropped the latest draft bombshell of sorts when he revealed Wednesday that Lance will be the 49ers’ choice.

“I’m hearing it’s Trey Lance.

That’s what I’m hearing now,” Eisen said confidently. “I’m hearing the kid is supremely talented physically, and neck-up smart and also really

wants to learn.”

Lance, who turns 21 next month, is the most intriguing of the three prospects because of his cannon of an arm, ability to make plays on the run as well as his ability to limit turnovers. Lance threw 28 touchdowns and no interceptions in 2019 while leading North Dakota State to the FCS Championship. Many scouts believe he has the highest ceiling among the 49ers’ three options.

Of course, only a day earlier Adam Schefter, ESPN’s resident NFL newsbreaker, reported the 49ers were focused elsewhere with their pick.

“Oh, it’ll be Mac Jones,” Schefter said matter-of-factly on ESPN Radio.

Pundits fuel NFL draft QB carousel

M ischa A lemania, Janaiya Terrones, Juliana Roxas and Brooklyn Denina each had two hits with Alemania ripping a double and a triple with an RBI and Roxas also driving in a run.

Fairfield 4, American Canyon 2: At Fairfield, the Falcons got home runs from Maiya McCleod and Nikki O’Reilly to pick up the non-league win, Monday.

Ashley Cortez went the distance in the circle, striking out six while allowing one run on six hits with one walk.

Benicia 4, Vacaville 1: At Benicia, Acacia Anders and Jenna Potter each had two hits with Anders and Makayla Freshour each blasting doubles, Monday.

O

n his pre-draft video conference Thursday, Raiders general manager Mike Mayock was uninterested in giving up crucial information as to his team’s intentions, but he did address some of the biggest dilemmas regarding the 2021 NFL Draft as well as the status of the current roster.

For instance, Mayock wouldn’t take a deep dive into obvious need positions such as right tackle or free safety, instead citing players on the current roster who could fill those roles such as tackle Jaryd JonesSmith and Jeff Heath.

But rest assured it will be a disappointment if the Raiders don’t come out of the draft with potential starters at both positions.

ANALYSIS Ten things we learned from Mayock:

1. Opt-outs will be scrutinized More than 150 draft-eligible players either didn’t play in 2020 or played a fraction of a season before stepping aside because of Covid-19.

Some did it for their own health. Others, particularly in the Big Ten and Pac-12, were under the impression they weren’t going to have a season at all and then learned otherwise.

By then, they’d hired agents and begun training for the draft.

Raiders: Pandemic adds to challenges From Page PB Zoom interviews.

“We’ve had some pretty lively conversations about that. I think the right perspective is, look, every kid is a different case, OK?” Mayock said.

Some players said they had deaths in the family or underlying medical conditions. Some players used it as an excuse not to play, leave their teams and start training for the NFL. “That’s why you have to continue to drill down on the kid, what his playing demeanor is, what his coaches think about him,” Mayock said.

“It’s really a can of worms and I think every team will look at those opt-outs a little differently.”

2. Medical information is tough to come by In a normal year, the Raiders would have had all the medical information they needed post-combine. Instead, along with every other team, they’re setting their draft boards even as reports are still coming in.

“I’m literally finishing up draft meetings this week and we don’t have medical grades on a bunch of guys that we can trust,” Mayock said.

3. So is getting an up-close-and-personal look at prospects For the second year, teams can’t bring prospects to the building (with a limit of 30) for extensive face-to-face interviews which could last a full day. Mayock said you could tell by 2 p.m. which players had hit their limit of football and which ones truly loved it.

Pro-day workouts afforded the chance to watch players in person, but offered no face time other than Zoom.

“We didn’t get a chance to sit and meet with the kids, which I

think is the biggest downside to the whole thing,” Mayock said. “We still had to do some Zoom meetings. I don’t like that.

Even though we got a lot of information, it’s not the same as sitting down with a kid, having dinner, having lunch, watching tape with him.”

4. Offensive line is not in crisis Gone is longtime center Rodney Hudson to Arizona and guard Gabe Jackson to Seattle, who were the two rocks in an ever-changing unit a year ago. Gone is Trent Brown, who couldn’t stay on the field, to New England.

The Raiders got back a third-round pick and two fifths, as well as sending seventh-round selections to the Cardinals and Patriots. The moves off-loaded more than a thousand pounds off the roster as well as more than $30 million in scheduled salary.

Read between the lines and Mayock intimated the Raiders’ line, which faded in the last six games along with the rest of the team a year ago, had gotten a little too old and slow.

“We have all the respect in the world for Rodney, Gabe and Trent, but at this point, we made a conscious decision to try and get a little younger, maybe a little bit more athletic and let’s go,” Mayock said. “I can’t wait to see how we react.”

5. The message sent by extending Kolton Miller The Raiders extended the contract of left tackle Kolton Miller, who instantly became the NFL’s fifth-highest paid left tackle on a per year basis of just over $18 million. Mayock believes teammates will take notice.

“I think that showed our locker room that we were willing to be really aggressive in signing one of our own, somebody we

believe is a cornerstone,” Mayock said.

Mayock said re-signing linebacker Nicholas Morrow was another example of bringing back a player who grew up in the organization and has gotten better each year.

6. What’s expected of Henry Ruggs III and Damon Arnette Ruggs arrived last season at No. 12 overall and Arnette at No. 19.

Neither player had a huge impact, although Ruggs did have a big hand in beating Kansas City at Arrowhead Arrowhead as well as a last-second game-winning touchdown against the Jets.

In early March, Mayock said the Raiders needed Ruggs and Arnette to get bigger and stronger. His impression is both players are on track for a much better 2021. “(Ruggs) needs to take it Level Two now.

Stronger, better route runner, finish, get both feet down, all those things, and we think he will,” Mayock said.

“Same with Arnette.

Up-and-down year, injured, Covid, different issues. We need consistency of effort and I’m a big believer in both those kids.”

around to others around the league, devising ways to move up or down depending on how their board falls.

“At 17, you’re going, ‘OK, I think the board is going to fall a certain way. And how are we going to react if it doesn’t fall that way?,” Mayock said. “Is there a way to get out? A way to go back?

Conversely, if you’re sitting at 17 and a guy you think was going 8-10 or 12 starts to slide a little bit, are you willing to give up some draft capital for that specific guy? You have to be nimble.”

9. Working with Gruden It’s been suggested working on draft day (or any other day) with Gruden is no picnic in that he is impulsive and unpredictable. Mayock, entering his third draft after taking over for Reggie McKenzie, will of course have none of it.

“The two things I love about Jon Gruden and respect the most is he has an incredible passion for the game of football and a work ethic like I’ve never seen,” Mayock said.

“Those two things I respect as much as I can respect anything. I just try to match his passion and work ethic.”

7. The Gus Bradley effect

10. Lessons learned in two drafts

New Raiders defensive coordinator Gus Bradley stopped by a February draft meeting “for a couple of minutes” and Mayock said he stuck around for two hours answering questions.

“Just a very outgoing, infectious guy, he’s one of those people that connects other people if that makes any sense,” Mayock said. “I think that’s an awesome attribute for a coordinator.”

The hit rate in Mayock’s first draft was better than last year, with rookie contributions not amounting to much in the grand 8-8 scheme of things.

“I have to stick to my gut after all the information is collected, after everything is in,” Mayock said. “You take everything into account, all the coaches’ opinions, the scouts’ opinions. Jon and I sit down and grind it together to come to a consensus. The best way I feel good about myself is when I know I feel good about that kid from A to Z. If I make a mistake, it’s for the right reasons.”

8. Staying flexible at No. 17 By now, general managers are calling

49ers: Questions

Alumni: Caballero sisters’ teams meet

been highly touted and he also earns top marks for his ability to quickly process things. On the other hand, Jones’ athleticism and arm strength can’t be described as top-notch.

Nonetheless, one anonymous NFL quarterback coach told The Athletic’s Bruce Feldman that Jones is “the most advanced” quarterback in this year’s class.

“Jones is gonna walk in Day One and just have to flip terminology because he’s gonna know pro football. He’s been coached by (Steve Sarkisian at Alabama),” the NFL assistant said. “He understands run checks, understands moving protections – not that these others don’t, but he’s on a different level.”

One NFL executive is dubious of the Jones sentiment, though, and isn’t buying he’s heading to San Francisco.

“I don’t think there’s any way in hell they’re taking Mac Jones. He’s not good enough,” the executive told The MMQB’s Albert Breer. “The Shanahan offense has worked with a multitude of types of quarterbacks. But it really flourished when it had a big athlete with a big arm like John Elway running it. I just think you’re moving up for the special athlete.”

Then there’s Fields, the Buckeyes’ quarterback who dazzled in the College Football Playoff, and was almost immediately identified as the consensus 49ers’ pick when they acquired the No. 3 pick.

The 6-foot-3, 228pound Fields was praised for his intelligence, toughness and athletic ability, all of which helped Ohio State beat Clemson on its way to the national championship game against Alabama. His strong arm and uncanny accuracy, coupled with the ability to extend plays with his feet, make him an obvious choice for the 49ers, say some experts.

Former NFL executive Michael Lombardi of The Athletic shot down the notion Fields is what the 49ers are looking for, though.

“Justin Fields is not gonna go No. 3. That’s what I’ve heard,” Lombardi said on SiriuxSM’s The Wrap with Patrick Meagher. “I love the people on Twitter who are like weathermen.

Seriously. where are you getting your information?

“You’ve got better sources than me? Good luck. I’m just telling you – if it’s not Mac Jones, it’s Trey Lance.”

The conflicting 49ers draft reports certainly haven’t helped the oddsmakers do their jobs.

A week after installing Fields as the -125 favorite over Jones (+120) and Lance (+350), DraftKings Sportsbook reversed course and listed Jones as the new favorite this week. Jones at -110 now leads Fields (+110) and Lance (+400).

Jones? Fields? Lance?

The 49ers’ choice truly seems to be anybody’s guess at this point. For Shanahan, the master of misdirection plays, this play couldn’t have been schemed any better.

The Eagles lost their other five games.

Eastern Nazarene (14-2, 8-2 NECC) split a two-game series with New England College as Adriana Montuya (Solano) was 2-for-7 with a home run, two runs and two RBIs. She also took the defeat in an 8-1 loss, allowing just one earned run on 10 hits with four strikeouts over six innings.

Arguably Britain’s best-ever woman player was Rixi Markus. Her strengths were knowing what her opponents would do next and card reading.

Today’s deal was classic Rixi (as she was known by everyone). The bidding isn’t recorded, but the English open one no-trump with only 12-14 points. Then Stayman leads to four spades.

West led the heart king: two, jack, nine. West switched to the diamond nine, ducked to South’s king. Rixi played her second heart. West won with the ace and persevered with his remaining diamond. East took the trick with his ace and shifted to a club.

Rixi had to draw trumps without loss. How were the spades divided? To try to find out, Rixi won with dummy’s club king and led the heart queen. East calmly discarded a club. Declarer crossed to her club ace and led the diamond queen. West also refused to ruff, pitching a club. A club ruff and the heart 10 gave the answer. When East threw a diamond, Rixi confidently cashed the spade king and continued with the spade jack to pin West’s 10.

Rixi was a difficult partner, always quick to criticize, but away from the table she was charming.

They’ll be celebrated during a ceremony taking place jointly between Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre and Union Station in downtown Los Angeles, and brimming with extraordinary storylines.

But the risks she takes to exact vengeance will bring unexpected and dangerous new challenges. (Hulu).

Thursday: Time to huddle up and hunker down for the first night of the 2021 NFL Draft as teams try to bolster their rosters. The long periods between picks, of course, will be crammed with X’s and O’s analysis, player highlights and storytelling. (8 p.m. ET, ABC, ESPN & NFL Network).

Friday: Break out the tissues, “MacGyver” fans. The series ends its five-season run tonight with a final episode in which Mac and Riley go missing and wake up 24 hours later in a corn field with no memory of how they got there. They must unravel the mystery to find who took them, and how to get rid of the nano trackers in their bodies, no matter the cost. (8 p.m., CBS).

Friday: Brace yourself for “The Mosquito Coast.”

Adapted from the bestselling novel by Paul Theroux, it follows the dangerous journey of Allie Fox (Justin Theroux), a radical idealist and brilliant inventor who uproots his family for Mexico when they suddenly find themselves on the run from the U.S. government. (Apple TV+).

Saturday: “Love, Romance & Chocolate”?

Sounds appetizing. This 2019 feel-good TV movie follows a New York accountant who embarks on a great adventure in Belgium when she meets a handsome man (Will Kemp) and gets caught up in a competition between local chocolatiers. (9 p.m., Hallmark Channel).

‘We believe the worst is behind us’ Travel boost helps airlines envision end to financial pain of Covid-19 Tribune Content Agency Southwest Airlines and American Airlines would have lost nearly $4 billion combined without the help of government payroll aid in the first quarter, but the carriers are envisioning a path back to profitability after a year of devastating losses from the Covid-19 pandemic.

Dallas-based Southwest turned in a $116 million profit in the first three months of 2021, the carrier’s best result since 2019, mostly thanks to $1.2 billion in payroll support as part of two government stimulus programs. Even though the company couldn’t make money on its own, daily losses are narrowing and Southwest could get

Smiley N. Pool/The Dallas Morning News/TNS file

A Southwest Airlines flight takes off at Dallas Love Field in Dallas, Texas, Jan. 7. back to making a daily operating profit by the middle of the year.

“While the pandemic is not over, we believe the worst is behind us, in terms of the severity of

the negative impact on travel demand,” Southwest CEO Gary Kelly said in a statement.

Fort Worth, Texasbased American said it recorded an operating

profit of about $4 million a day in March, excluding debt and severance payments. But American still lost $1.3 billion between January and March, a loss that would have been about $2.7 billion without government aid or the $163 million spent on early retirement costs.

“We’re still going through tough times in the business. We don’t like losing that much money,” CEO Doug Parker told CNBC Thursday morning.

Vaccine distribution and a gradually reopening economy are adding optimism to airlines that have become accustomed to multibillion-dollar losses since March 2019, when the Covid-19 pandemic upended global and domes-

tic travel. Airlines started reporting an uptick in sales in mid-February and some are even reporting that summer ticket sales are near 2019 levels.

“We believe there is significant pent-up demand for leisure travel and are optimistic about summer 2021,” Southwest said Thursday. “In response, we are in the process of adding flights in June 2021, and we currently expect June available seat miles to be only slightly less than June 2019 pre-pandemic levels.”

There is still a long way to go until either airline is performing the way it did before Covid. International and business travel remain down and those segments are among the

most profitable for airlines compared to price-sensitive leisure travelers. demand for The summer sales shows that a lot of people want to fly, but getting back to the levels seen before the pandemic will be a greater challenge, said Jeff Windau, an analyst with Edward Jones.

“There is pent-up demand and as the vaccine gets rolled out, we think that’s going to be positive from the travel perspective,” Windau said. “Then we will start to see that business travel come back, maybe in the fall or next year.”

Lowe’s expands its private label options with purchase of carpet brand Tribune Content Agency Lowe’s said Thursday it will be expanding its private label brands, another move it hopes will help in the c ompet it ive home improvement market.

The company acquired the carpet cleaning brand, Stainmaster. Terms of the sale were undisclosed.

“Today’s announcement adds the most trusted and recognized brand in carpet to our lineup of private brands,” Lowe’s CEO Marvin Ellison said in a statement.

Lowe’s was the only home improvement store to carry the brand exclusively for over a decade.

Bill Boltz, executive vice president of merchandising for Lowe’s, said Wednesday the acquisition is part of the company’s “Total Home Strategy” in its ongoing market share rights with main rival Home Depot.

The strategy has four key areas: focusing on the pro market, improving installation services, offering popular products in local markets like Stainmaster and investing online.

“It’s important to know we’re going to continue to invest in the (Stainmaster) brand and that Stainmaster and Lowe’s are now one entity,” Boltz said.

The purchase includes all brand-related intellectual property from its parent company, Invista, and all related trademarks

and sub-brands.

“This acquisition further demonstrates our commitment to deliver a compelling product assortment for customers,” said Sarah Dodd, Lowe’s senior vice president of global merchandising.

Stainmaster joins Lowe’s private brand portfolio, including Moxie cleaning supplies, Kobalt power tools and allen + roth home decor.

In 2020 Lowe’s generated nearly $90 billion in sales, with annual sales growth of over $17 billion.

Competitor Home Depot sales for fiscal 2020 were $132.1 billion, an increase of $21.9 billion.

Lowe’s is challenging Home Depot in other ways, too.

Lowe’s recently began rolling out a shopping experience geared to capturing pro customers with more perks and products.

That plan includes a “Pro Zone” dedicated area near the pro entrance with products for grab-andgo convenience, trailer parking with extended parking spots and free phone charging stations.

Lowe’s also launched Lowe’s Tool Rental last year, starting with its store on Iverson Way in Charlotte, offering professional-grade tools and equipment for pro and doit-yourself customers.

Lowe’s Companies Inc. has more than 2,200 home improvement and hardware stores and employ over 300,000 associates.

US jobless claims plunged last week to fresh pandemic low Tribune Content Agency Applications for U.S. state unemployment insurance unexpectedly plunged to a fresh pandemic low as the job market recovery gathers steam.

Initial claims in regular state programs decreased by 39,000 to 547,000 in the week ended April 17, Labor Department data showed Thursday. Economists in a Bloomberg survey estimated 610,000 claims. The prior week’s figure was revised up to 586,000.

The job market is strengthening as employers look to fill positions that were left empty by pandemic restrictions

that have now been eased.

Growth should speed up even more following a nationwide goal of administering an average of three million vaccinations per day. The claims data follow strong manufacturing, retail sales and other indicators in recent weeks.

Continuing claims for ongoing state benefits fell 34,000 to 3.67 million in the week ended April 10.

Applications for Pandemic Unemployment Assistance for self-employed and gig workers rose slightly.

Texas and New York were among states with the largest declines, while Florida and Georgia also saw sizeable decreases.

Theme parks have for years been relying on technology to better manage crowds, speed up the purchase of food and drinks, and eliminate gridlock around the most popular rides. Digital tickets have factored into that. So has the practice of tracking guests’ locations within a park via a phone app.

Now, after a yearlong closure due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Southern California’s theme parks are reopening with new safety protocols – many of which lean heavily on such technology. That’s helping the parks lower the risk of spreading the coronavirus and, at the same time, collect more information about their visitors.

At theme parks, the biggest risk of spreading the virus is also the biggest headache: long waits in packed crowds. Tech-

nology such as touchless payment systems to order food and apps to schedule times to ride attractions or make dining reservations is meant to reduce both.

“In the past several months, our tech teams have accelerated our move to digital in a big way,” Disneyland spokesperson Liz Jaeger said.

Industry experts say the trend is global, with theme parks in Asia and Europe also pushing the increased use of technology. China’s Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park reopened last year accepting only cashless payments. Legoland in Carlsbad reopened April 1, also accepting only cashless payments.

“Covid forced this because people have been away from each other and are now back,” said Dennis Speigel, president of International Theme Park Services. “But now we are going to see more and more of it.”

Privacy advocates say the trend also gives theme parks greater opportunity to use the visitors’ information to upsell them on merchandise, food and drinks, among other purchases. They also worry that the personal and financial information collected from parkgoers can be leaked or shared in unexpected ways.

“While theme parks may be pushing smart-

phone purchases as a form of convenience or even as a health measure, we should be very aware of the fact that this is also a huge opportunity for them to make a grab at our data, using it for everything from marketing to enforcement of park rules,” said Evan Greer, director of the digital rights group Fight for the Future.

Many theme park apps’ privacy policies acknowledge that the parks may use information collected by the apps for marketing purposes. But park officials say the apps give users the option to block access to some information, such as their location within the park.

“We take privacy very seriously to ensure that our guests and their personal data are securely protected,” Universal Studios Hollywood spokesperson Audrey Eig said.

Theme parks prefer touchless purchasing systems such as Apple Pay because parkgoers tend to spend more that way than they do when they have to reach into a wallet or a purse to pull out cash or a credit card, Speigel said.

An industry study found that at water parks and arcades, spending jumped 30% to 40% when touchless systems replaced traditional methods of paying.

“It’s truly one of the

best things in the industry to come out of the Covid” pandemic, Speigel said.

California theme parks were given permission by the state to reopen starting April 1, thanks to a decrease in new coronavirus cases and the rollout of vaccines. But state health officials have imposed a slew of health protocols, including limiting attendance, requiring six feet of separation in queues and mandating that visitors wear masks except when eating.

A greater use of smartphone apps and other technology can help the parks meet the state health protocols, especially the requirement that visitors maintain physical distance from one another, theme park officials say.

At Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, visitors walking from the parking lot to the front gate pass through a small building where thermal cameras take their temperatures without making them break their stride.

The visitors then stroll past a digital scanning device that checks them for hidden weapons, eliminating the need to stop for a security search.

“The best thing is it’s not holding up the line,” park spokesperson Jerry Certonio said.

Theme From Page B6 At Disneyland and Disney California Adventure Park, every restaurant and shop offers touchless payment options to eliminate the need to exchange cash and credit cards with a Disney worker.

Many of the restaurants also allow visitors to order food from the Disneyland app, eliminating the need to stand in a queue or a crowd while waiting for the food.

At the Disneyland Resort, visitors who want to enter a shop that has already reached capacity can give their name and phone number to a Disney employee who will send them a text message when they can return.

Six Flags Magic Mountain has increased the use of touchless payment options to six eateries in the last few weeks, up from three, with plans to add more in the future.

At Universal Studios Hollywood, visitors can still get a paper map at the gate but are encouraged to use their smartphone camera to scan a QR code emblazoned on signs throughout the park. The code causes a map of the park to display on the phone when the visitor downloads the park’s app. That should cut down on aimless intermixing with other visitors in the park. QR codes are also used at the Disneyland Resort to open digital menus at restaurants.

Visitors to the parks seem to like the changes.

Universal Studios Hollywood reopened last week with its first virtual line for its newest attraction, The Secret Life of Pets: Off the Leash.

Parkgoers can use their smartphone app or a kiosk near the ride to schedule a time to ride the attraction. When the scheduled time arrives, the visitor can show a paper ticket or a QR code on their phone and jump on the ride.

“I think it makes perfect sense,” said Holly Lee, an Orange County resident who visited the park Thursday. “It means you don’t have people crowding around in front of the ride.”

DAILYApril REPUBLIC Friday, April 23, 2021 B7 B7 Daily Republic - Friday, 23,—2021

Supreme Court overturns $1.3 billion penalty against payday loan tycoon Tribune Content Agency The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday unanimously sided with convicted Kansas City payday loan tycoon Scott Tucker in an appeal of a $1.3 billion penalty in a civil case brought by the Federal Trade Commission.

AMG Capital, one of Tucker’s payday loan enterprises, sought to overturn the 2016 decision of a federal judge in Nevada who agreed that Tucker and his businesses should pay $1.3 billion in restitution to borrowers who were defrauded.

The fine against Tucker and his businesses was the largest ever obtained at the time by the FTC in a litigated case. But Thursday’s decision by the high court invalidates the FTC’s fine, and its ability to seek restitution through courts in the future unless Congress gives the agency that power.

Tucker was convicted in a separate criminal case for running a payday loan business that federal prosecutors said exploited 4.5 million borrowers to the tune of $3.5 billion. He is

Travel From Page B6 53% compared to the first quarter of 2020, which was also hurt by the developing Covid-19 crisis.

Southwest brought in $2.1 billion in revenue, which was also down 51.5% compared to a year ago.

The worst of the pandemic might be over financially for airlines, but losses are still likely to continue for a bit longer. A year ago, some analysts were predicting that at least one major airline would succumb to bankruptcy because of massive daily cash burn levels. Severe costcutting, massive borrowing and slowly improving travels helped avert that.

Southwest and American have added significantly to debt loads in the last year and that will require time to pay off. Ameri-

currently serving a sentence of more than 16 years in prison. His conviction also included a forfeiture order requiring him to give up any proceeds or assets gained as a result of his crimes.

Justice Stephen Breyer wrote in an opinion for the court that the FTC does not have the power to seek restitution through federal courts in cases where consumers have been ripped off.

The ruling severely curtails the power of the FTC, a federal consumer watchdog agency.

Acting FTC chairwoman

Rebecca Kelly Slaughter, in a statement, said “the Supreme Court ruled in favor of scam artists and dishonest corporations, leaving average Americans to pay for illegal behavior.

“With this ruling, the Court has deprived the FTC of the strongest tool we had to help consumers when they need it most. We urge Congress to act swiftly to restore and strengthen the powers of the agency so we can make wronged consumers whole.”

A call to Tucker’s attorney

was not immediately returned.

Breyer’s opinion said that the FTC could still seek restitution in cases it pursues through its own administrative process.

But the FTC in recent years had sought restitution through the courts, a speedier path for the agency.

The FTC said Thursday it had secured $11.2 billion in refunds to consumers over the last five years using the route that the Supreme Court had just invalidated.

The FTC has already been trying to convince Congress to affirm its ability to seek restitution. On Tuesday, the agency submitted testimony to the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation urging Congress to consider passing legislation to let the FTC sue directly in federal court for violations of the FTC Act and recover ill-gotten gains.

Tucker is currently held in the federal prison in Leavenworth while a separate criminal tax fraud case against him remains pending.

can now has about $41 billion in debt, even though it has about $20 billion in cash that it hoarded during the last year.

“We can certainly service the debt but it’s higher than we want,” Parker said on CNBC. “We entered 2020 looking to reduce our debt by $8 [billion] to $10 billion over the next five years. We’re still going to do that from here but now it’s higher than we wanted it to be.”

more hiring later this year.

American announced plans earlier this week to recall all of its previously furloughed pilots and begin hiring as many as 300 pilots at the end of this year and possibly 600 more next year.

That’s to make up for about 1,000 pilots who retired during the pandemic.

The airline may start hiring for other jobs, too, especially ground workers, fleet workers and passenger service agents, said President Robert Isom.

“We’re gonna have needs throughout the network but it’s really just based on location needs more than anything else,” Isom said. “And it’s too soon to say anything about where we stand with our flight attendants. There will be a need there as well.”

Thousands of flight attendants are out on long-term leave they volunteered for last year.

Parker said the company will

likely need to start hiring again, but not until all of those workers have been brought back.

Southwest didn’t furlough any employees during the pandemic, thanks in part to government stimulus support. But more than 11,000 employees took voluntary leave and some opted to take long-term time away from work of up to 18 months.

But executives said the company isn’t ready just yet to commit to hiring new employees.

“To be straightforward about this, I think we’re all prepared for this to be messy,” Kelly said.

“It’s not easy to predict and it’s not easy to execute and we won’t want to end up with excess staffing. It was really messy a year ago trying to downsize the airline.”

Kelly isn’t worried about turning the hiring spigot back on in the future.

“We’ve been a hiring machine for 50 years,” he said.

Scott Tucker is seen here in his Leawood, Kansas, home during an interview with Netflix for its “Dirty Money” series.

Bringing back employees and hiring more American had about 6,000 fewer employees in February than it did the year before, the company’s smallest workforce since it merged with US Airways in 2015. It announced Thursday that another 1,600 employees had signed up for buyout packages that were offered earlier this year.

The property heretofore described is being sold "as is". The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 2925 GULF DRIVE, FAIRFIELD, CA 94533 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein.

Said sale will be made without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the Note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said Note(s), advances if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust.

The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien.

If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property. Notice to Property Owner The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call In Source Logic at 702659-7766 for information regarding the Trustee's Sale or visit the Internet Website address www.insourcelogic.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA07000993-20-1. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Website.

The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Notice to Tenant NOTICE TO TENANT FOR FORECLOSURES AFTER JANUARY 1, 2021 You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 702-6597766, or visit this internet website www.insourcelogic.com, using the file number assigned to this case CA07000993-20-1 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale.
