A panel of three federal judges says the Alabama legislature intentionally drew its congressional district map to dilute black voting strength, which is unconstitutional and violates the Voting Rights Act. The court enjoined the state from using the map in future elections. The ruling comes in a lawsuit that made it to the U.S. Supreme Court.
which agreed that Alabama's congressional map was discriminatory in a state where African Americans make up about a quarter of the population. Black voters who sued called the ruling a testament to the persistence of generations of black Alabamians who pursued political equality at great cost. Debbie Elliott, NPR News.
Jurors found fired Memphis police detectives Tadarius Bean, Demetrius Haley, and Justin Smith not guilty on a host of state charges, including second-degree murder and aggravated kidnapping. Two other officers had pleaded guilty in the case. Key prosecution evidence was video showing the officers punch, kick, and use police batons and pepper spray on Nichols after a traffic stop.
Nichols was black, as are the now former officers involved. Defense lawyers argued they acted in keeping with Memphis Police Department policy because Nichols ran a red light and failed to stop when officers pursued him. Attorneys representing Tyree Nichols' family called the verdict a devastating miscarriage of justice. Debbie Elliott, NPR News.
In the dark of the night on April 20, 2010, oil and gas erupted from a BP well nearly a mile deep in the Gulf off the coast of Louisiana. It caused the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig to explode and catch fire, killing 11 rig workers and injuring more than a dozen others.
Oil spewed unchecked from the Gulf floor for nearly three months, killing wildlife, polluting beaches and devastating Gulf Coast businesses. Investigations and court rulings put the blame on a tragic series of safety failures. BP has paid some $70 billion in judgments and settlements and for cleanup and restoration projects, which are still underway 15 years later. Debbie Elliott, NPR News.

Alabama Congresswoman Terri Sewell of Selma says what took place there changed the face of American politics.
Sewell has introduced a bill to restore parts of the Voting Rights Act the U.S. Supreme Court struck down in 2013. Debbie Elliott, NPR News, Selma.
During that time, Jabbar, using meta glasses, recorded a video as he rode through the French Quarter on a bicycle. Metaglasses appear to look like regular glasses, but they allow a user to record videos and photos hand-free.

Well, another day of chasing down leads, and I think in particular a closer look at hundreds of hours of surveillance video. You know, it shows Jabbar placing two explosive devices concealed in coolers in the French Quarter just a few blocks from the crash site. And as the investigation was unfolding, agents initially indicated that other people might have helped him plant those.
But after looking at all that video, it turned out to just be curious passersby who had stopped to check out the coolers on a street corner, right? FBI Deputy Assistant Director Christopher Rea, who's with the Counterterrorism Division at the agency, is urging those people to now call the FBI with whatever they saw. Rea had more information about Jabbar's motivation.
