One of the key considerations in cases involving the rape of mentally ill individuals is the legal standard for determining whether non-consensual sexual activity took place. In many jurisdictions, consent is a crucial element in defining rape. However, the issue of consent becomes complicated when the victim is mentally ill and may not have the capacity to provide informed consent. In such cases, courts must consider the individual's mental state, ability to understand the nature of the sexual act, and capacity to communicate their lack of consent.No. 4 South Carolina women rout Purdue 99-51Total words: 413
Tesla CEO Elon Musk lost his bid to get his 2018 CEO pay package reinstated on Monday when a Delaware judge upheld her prior ruling that the compensation plan was improperly granted. The package, worth about $56 billion, was the largest compensation plan in U.S. history for a public company executive. Musk attorneys attempted to sway the judge in the Delaware business court after the trial to reverse her opinion rescinding the CEO’s pay plan. Tesla had conducted a shareholder vote to “ratify” Musk’s 2018 pay plan at the EV maker’s annual shareholder meeting in Austin, Texas, in June. Chancellor Kathaleen McCormick wrote in her opinion on Monday that, “Even if a stockholder vote could have a ratifying effect, it could not do so here.” The judge approved a $345 million attorney fee award for the lawyers who successfully sued on behalf of Tesla shareholders in order to void the pay plan. “We are pleased with Chancellor McCormick’s ruling, which declined Tesla’s invitation to inject continued uncertainty into Court proceedings and thank the Chancellor and her staff for their extraordinary hard work in overseeing this complex case,” attorneys from Bernstein, Litowitz, Berger & Grossmann, the firm representing the plaintiff, said in a statement. Musk can appeal the decision to the Delaware Supreme Court. Following McCormick’s decision in January to void the plan, Musk lashed out at the court, posting on X, “Never incorporate your company in the state of Delaware.” The company then held a shareholder vote to reincorporate in Texas, and officially shifted its incorporation there in June. In response to Musk’s motion arguing that Tesla’s ratification vote for his pay package should lead her to reverse her prior opinion, Judge McCormick wrote, “Were the court to condone the practice of allowing defeated parties to create new facts for the purpose of revising judgments, lawsuits would become interminable.” Despite the setback, Musk has seen his net worth jump considerably in recent weeks. Excluding all of the options wrapped up in the pay package, Musk is more than $43 billion richer since Donald Trump’s election victory last month. Tesla shares have soared 42% in the four weeks since the election on optimism that Musk’s coziness with the incoming president will lead to policies favorable to his companies. The Tesla stock Musk still holds is worth close to $150 billion based on Monday’s closing price. That alone, not including his SpaceX stake, would put him among the world’s wealthiest people.

Vandal smashes Ebenezer Scrooge's tombstone used in 'A Christmas Carol' movie LONDON (AP) — If life imitates art, a vandal in the English countryside may be haunted by The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. Police in the town of Shrewsbury are investigating how a tombstone at the fictional grave of Ebenezer Scrooge was destroyed. The movie prop used in the 1984 adaption of Charles Dickens' “A Christmas Carol” had become a tourist attraction. The film starred George C. Scott as the cold-hearted curmudgeon who is visited by three ghosts on Christmas Eve who show him what will become of his life if he doesn’t become a better person. West Mercia Police say the stone was vandalized in the past week. Megachurch founder T.D. Jakes suffers health incident during sermon at Dallas church DALLAS (AP) — The founder of Dallas-based megachurch The Potter's House, Bishop T.D. Jakes, was hospitalized after suffering what the church called a “slight health incident.” Jakes was speaking to churchgoers after he sat down and began trembling as several people gathered around him Sunday at the church. Jakes' daughter Sarah Jakes Roberts and her husband Touré Roberts said in a statement on social media late Sunday that Jakes was improving. The 67-year-old Jakes founded the non-denominational The Potter's House in 1996 and his website says it now has more than 30,000 members with campuses in Fort Worth and Frisco, Texas; and in Denver. At the crossroads of news and opinion, 'Morning Joe' hosts grapple with aftermath of Trump meeting The reaction of those who defended “Morning Joe” hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski for meeting with President-elect Trump sounds almost quaint in the days of opinionated journalism. Doesn't it makes sense, they said, for hosts of a political news show to meet with such an important figure? But given how “Morning Joe” has attacked Trump, its viewers felt insulted. Many reacted quickly by staying away. It all reflects the broader trend of opinion crowding out traditional journalist in today's marketplace, and the expectations that creates among consumers. By mid-week, the show's audience was less than two-thirds what it has typically been this year. Pilot dies in plane crash in remote woods of New York, puppy found alive WINDHAM, N.Y.

(AP) — Investor Warren Buffett renewed his Thanksgiving tradition of giving by handing out more than $1.1 billion of Berkshire Hathaway stock to four of his family's foundations Monday, and he offered new details about who will be handing out the rest of his fortune after his death. Buffett has said previously that his three kids will distribute his remaining $147.4 billion fortune in the 10 years after his death, but now he has also designated successors for them because it’s possible that Buffett’s children could die before giving it all away. Buffett said he has no regrets about his decision to start giving away his fortune in 2006.

A desert oasis outside of Dubai draws a new caravan: A family of rodents from Argentina AL QUDRA LAKES, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A desert oasis hidden away in the dunes in the far reaches of skyscraper-studded Dubai has drawn a surprising new set of weary world travelers: a pack of Argentinian rodents. A number of Patagonian mara, a rabbit-like mammal with long legs, big ears and a body like a hoofed animal, now roam the grounds of Al Qudra Lakes, typically home to gazelle and other desert creatures of the United Arab Emirates. How they got there remains a mystery in the UAE, a country where exotic animals have ended up in the private homes and farms of the wealthy. But the pack appears to be thriving there and likely have survived several years already in a network of warrens among the dunes.
SOMERSET COUNTY, N.J. -- A Canadian man has been arrested for the 1997 murder of Tammy Tignor, whose body was found in a New Jersey park after she was strangled to death. Nearly three decades later, authorities say DNA technology and an eyewitness report led them to 60-year-old Robert Creter, who has been charged with first degree murder in Tignor's death. Tignor's body was discovered in a wooded area of Washington Valley Park in Bridgewater 27 years ago, kicking of the investigation that puzzled authorities for years. "The last person who saw Tammy alive saw her get into an orange van," Somerset County Assistant Prosecutor Michael McLaughlin said. The orange van was also seen in Newark, a city Tignor frequented, prosecutors said. County prosecutors used the witness's account and worked with the New Jersey State Police Cold Case Unit to link preserved DNA found on Tignor's body to Creter. "In 2023, there were advancements in DNA testing that resulted in a profile that police were able to match to Robert Creter. Somerset County prosecutors detectives then looked into his prior police reports and they were able to link Creter to an orange van," McLaughlin said. "If you think about when she was killed, there was really no cellphones, license plate readers," said New Jersey State Police Superintendent Colonel Pat Callahan. Investigators said they got a match on Creter in April 2023 and that Canadian authorities took him into custody several months later in Winnipeg. Due to extradition laws, prosecutors said they couldn't tell Tignor's mom about the arrest until Creter was on U.S. soil. She had called detectives every year for updates on her daughter's murder case. "It was incredibly emotional. She was very thankful to our detectives today and the detectives at the time," McLaughlin said. Investigators have not divulged a motive for Tignor's murder, but said she and Creter did not know each other. Creter is expected to make his first court appearance on Wednesday.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Creighton point guard Steven Ashworth likely won't play Tuesday in the No. 21 Bluejays' game against San Diego State in the Players Era Festival in Las Vegas. Ashworth sprained his right ankle late in a loss to Nebraska on Friday, and coach Greg McDermott said he didn't know how long he would be out. “He stepped on a guy's foot on a 3-point shot and you're defenseless in that situation," McDermott said after the game. "He torqued it pretty good.” An athletic department spokesman said Monday that Ashworth's status was doubtful for the game against the Aztecs. Ashworth is Creighton's second-leading scorer with 16 points per game and leads the team with 6.4 assists per game. He also is 23 of 23 on free throws.
