Utah Farmers Signed Up for Federally Funded Therapy. Then the Money Stopped.
Farmers are dying by suicide at the third-highest rate by vocation in Utah. But after a federal program offering mental health support ran out of money, the state did not continue it.

Did I Really Do That? | Hidden Brain Media
Have you ever been falsely accused of something? This week, why we sometimes act against our own self-interest — even when the stakes are at their highest.
We are asking MA to pass legislation that prevents police from lying to people they are interrogating and to record interrogations. Take a listen to this episode about false confessions and, if you are in MA, please ask your legislators to co-sponsor H1847 / S1136.

Fifth Circuit Vacates Texas Woman’s Conviction After 27 Years on Death Row
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit reversed the conviction of Brittany Holberg.
Brittany Holberg was sentenced to death in 1998 after Texas prosecutors failed to disclose that their key witness at trial was a paid informant. This case's display of prosecutorial misconduct serves as a stark reminder of enduring problems in the death penalty.

Suspect in Insurance C.E.O. Killing Creates Website as Support Floods In
Luigi Mangione faced a hearing on Friday as supporters planned a rally outside a Manhattan courthouse. Some Americans have found a hero in the man accused of vigilante murder.
The outpouring of support is not necessarily based on questions about the investigation or about his potential guilt,” Professor Daniel Medwed tells @nytimes.com. “It’s an outpouring of support for a form of vigilante justice.” @danielmedwed.bsky.social
