Google admits it tracks users, even if you
opt out-Clarifying policy after being outed by investigative report,
internet giant acknowledges 'some location data may be saved'-By RYAN
NAKASHIMA-TOI-AUG 20,18
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Google has
revised an erroneous description on its website of how its “Location
History” setting works, clarifying that it continues to track users even
if they’ve disabled the setting.The change came three days after an
Associated Press investigation revealed that several Google apps and
websites store user location even if users have turned off Location
History. Google has not changed its location-tracking practice in that
regard.But its help page for the Location History setting now states:
“This setting does not affect other location services on your device.”
It also acknowledges that “some location data may be saved as part of
your activity on other services, like Search and Maps.”Previously, the
page stated: “With Location History off, the places you go are no longer
stored.”The AP observed that the change occurred midday Thursday, a
finding confirmed by Internet Archive snapshots taken earlier in the
day.The AP investigation found that even with Location History turned
off, Google stores user location when, for instance, the Google Maps app
is opened, or when users conduct Google searches that aren’t related to
location. Automated searches of the local weather on some Android
phones also store the phone’s whereabouts.In a Thursday statement to the
AP, Google said: “We have been updating the explanatory language about
Location History to make it more consistent and clear across our
platforms and help centers.”The statement contrasted with a statement
Google sent to the AP several days ago that said in part, “We provide
clear descriptions of these tools.”Jonathan Mayer, a Princeton computer
scientist and former chief technologist for the Federal Communications
Commission’s enforcement bureau, said the wording change was a step in
the right direction. But it doesn’t fix the underlying confusion Google
created by storing location information in multiple ways, he said.“The
notion of having two distinct ways in which you control how your
location data is stored is inherently confusing,” he said Thursday. “I
can’t think off the top of my head of any major online service that
architected their location privacy settings in a similar way.”K.
Shankari, a UC Berkeley graduate researcher whose findings initially
alerted the AP to the issue, said Thursday the change was a “good step
forward,” but added “they can make it better.” For one thing, she said,
the page still makes no mention of another setting called “Web & App
Activity.” Turning that setting off that would in fact stop recording
location data.Huge tech companies are under increasing scrutiny over
their data practices, following a series of privacy scandals at Facebook
and new data-privacy rules recently adopted by the European Union. Last
year, the business news site Quartz found that Google was tracking
Android users by collecting the addresses of nearby cellphone towers
even if all location services were off. Google changed the practice and
insisted it never recorded the data anyway.Critics say Google’s
insistence on tracking its users’ locations stems from its drive to
boost advertising revenue. It can charge advertisers more if they want
to narrow ad delivery to people who’ve visited certain locations.Several
observers also noted that Google is still bound by a 20-year agreement
it struck with the Federal Trade Commission in 2011. That consent decree
requires Google to not misrepresent to consumers how they can protect
their privacy.Google agreed to that order in response to an FTC
investigation of its now-defunct social networking service Google Buzz,
which the agency accused of publicly revealing users’ most frequent
Gmail contacts.A year later, Google was fined $22.5 million for breaking
the agreement after it served some users of Apple’s Safari browser
so-called tracking cookies in violation of settings that were meant to
prevent that.The FTC has declined to say whether it had begun
investigating Google for how it has described Location History.
Military
parade ordered by Trump postponed after costs spiral-Originally
budgeted at between $10 and $30 million, cost estimates have
sky-rocketed past $90 million and drawn criticism over waste-By
AFP-TOI-AUG 20,18
WASHINGTON — A military parade ordered
by US President Donald Trump for later this year has been postponed
until at least 2019, a defense official said Thursday, following reports
the cost had soared to over $90 million.The announcement was seen as a
setback for the president, who had ordered the show of air power after
being impressed by France’s Bastille Day parade last year.The idea had
been popular among many Americans but drew scorn from critics, who said
it would be a waste of money and was akin to events organized by
authoritarian regimes.“The Department of Defense and White House have
been planning a parade to honor America’s military veterans and
commemorate the centennial of World War I,” Pentagon spokesman Colonel
Rob Manning said in a statement.“We originally targeted November 10,
2018 for this event but have now agreed to explore opportunities in
2019,” he added.When the White House in February announced the
commander-in-chief’s desire to hold the parade in Washington, the budget
director said it would cost between $10 million and $30 million.But a
US official told AFP earlier Thursday the planning estimate had now gone
as high as $92 million, though no final figure has been reached.The
request for the event came after Trump’s visit to France in July 2017,
where he was hosted with great fanfare by French President Emmanuel
Macron.Sitting on the Champs-Elysees during the Bastille Day parade, the
American president had marveled at the Republican Guard on horseback
and jets flying overhead.He had initially hinted at plans to transform
America’s Independence Day celebrations — usually associated with
fireworks and barbecues — on July 4 into a vast military parade.“To a
large extent, because of what I witnessed we may do something like that
on July 4th in Washington, down Pennsylvania Avenue,” he said in
September 2017.-Destitute veterans-Even before becoming president, aides
reported that Trump had considered a military parade to mark his
inauguration — although that idea was eventually scrapped.Trump has also
embraced military backdrops for several speeches and presidential
visits. However, he received deferments from carrying out military
service of his own during the Vietnam War.US media were quick to
highlight how the ballooning costs of the proposed parade stood in
contrast to his concern about the expense of conducting joint military
exercises with South Korea.“We will be stopping the war games, which
will save us a tremendous amount of money,” Trump said in June after
meeting North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.It later emerged that the drills
cost about $14 million, a fraction of the price of a military
parade.Others suggested the money could be better spent improving the
lives of destitute veterans.“Until such time as we can celebrate victory
in the War on Terrorism and bring our military home, we think the
parade money would be better spent fully funding the Department of
Veteran Affairs and giving our troops and their families the best care
possible,” said the American Legion’s national commander Denise
Rohan.The United States normally holds military parades to mark the end
of a conflict, such as in 1991 when president George HW Bush held a
National Victory Parade in Washington to celebrate the end of the first
Gulf War.

Liberman
said to have met secretly with Qatari rep over Gaza-Defense minster
reportedly flew to Cyprus to discuss Strip's humanitarian crisis and the
return of captive Israeli civilians and fallen soldiers held by
Hamas-By TOI staff-AUG 20,18
Defense Minister Avigdor
Liberman reportedly met secretly in Cyprus two months ago with Qatar’s
envoy to Gaza, to discuss the enclave’s humanitarian crisis and the
return of captive Israeli civilians and fallen soldiers, held by the
Hamas terror group.Liberman met Muhammad al-Amadi at Larnaca airport in
Cyprus on June 22 during a visit for a summit with the Cypriot and Greek
defense ministers on the island, Channel 10 reported late
Thursday.During the meeting, al-Amadi offered unspecified Qatari
proposals for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, as well as solutions
to the question of the Israeli captives, the report said. He also
pledged some $350 million to humanitarian projects in Gaza as part of
any deal.The meeting may have been kept secret because Israel has
publicly rejected Qatari mediation between itself and Hamas, preferring
the Egyptian channel. Egypt has joined Israel in maintaining the
blockade on the Hamas-ruled strip at least since 2014, and seeks to
expand its influence over the territory, despite the efforts of Hamas
backers such as Qatar and Turkey to intervene on the group’s behalf.Even
so, both the US and Israel have sought to keep Qatar involved in the
process, in part as a key funder of any future humanitarian projects
that emerge from agreements with Hamas. Qatar is all but alone among
wealthy Arab states willing to pour humanitarian funding into Gaza. Many
others, including Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, fear that
their funds would only serve to strengthen Hamas’s rule in Gaza and
influence over Palestinian politics generally.According to Israeli
officials, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met on Wednesday with Maj.
Gen. Abbas Kamel, the head of Egyptian military intelligence and Cairo’s
pointman on Gaza.Kamel also met with National Security Adviser Meir Ben
Shabbat and Shin Bet chief Nadav Argaman.The contacts come as Israeli
and Hamas leaders consider ceasefire proposals slowly pieced together by
the UN Mideast peace envoy Nickolay Mladenov and others.Earlier
Thursday, a Lebanese-based TV channel reported that the long-term deal
taking shape will last for a year and see the establishment of a cargo
shipping connection between Gaza and Cyprus. Israel will have security
control over the sea traffic between the Palestinian coastal enclave and
Cyprus, according to the report from the al-Mayadeen television
channel, which cited sources familiar with the details.Hamas has long
made access to a sea port a key strategic goal. Under the conditions of
Israel’s naval blockade, goods heading to Gaza are currently shipped to
Israeli ports and then trucked into Gaza.Israel has imposed a blockade
on Gaza since Hamas, which is sworn to Israel’s destruction, seized the
territory from the PA. It says the blockade is in place in order to
prevent weapons and other military equipment from entering the
Strip.Hamas has fought three wars with Israel in the last decade.Egypt,
too, has kept its Gaza border crossing largely closed during years of
sour relations with the Islamist group.Sources told al-Mayadeen that the
forthcoming deal will include Qatari funding for Gaza’s electricity
bills in cooperation with Israel, and Qatari payment of civil service
employees’ salaries in Gaza in cooperation with Egypt.Gaza has limited
electricity supplies and civil servants have not been paid for months
due to a spat between Hamas and the Palestinian Authority.The hope is to
ink a final deal by Friday, the report said.Along with halting the
recent fighting, the Egypt-brokered plan supposedly includes
humanitarian projects for Gaza, and future indirect negotiations between
Israel and Hamas for the exchange of prisoners, the London-based Arabic
daily Al-Hayat reported.Liberman pitched the idea of setting up a
floating dock for Palestinian sea traffic in Cyprus when he met with
Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades in June, Hadashot news reported at
the time.The plan was conditional on the return of two Israeli civilians
and the bodies of two IDF soldiers held by Hamas, the television report
said.

'There's been a lot of devastation:' man whose family lost homes in B.C. fire-[The Canadian Press]-YAHOONEWS-August 20, 2018
PRINCE
GEORGE, B.C. — Residents of a tiny northwestern British Columbia town
ravaged by a massive wildfire are determined to extinguish the flames
and rebuild their community, family members say.Dan Edzerza Sr. and his
daughter Kristina Michaud are collecting donations of money and dried
goods for evacuees after a 360-square-kilometre blaze destroyed more
than 40 homes and properties in Telegraph Creek."There's been a lot of
devastation there," said Edzerza, speaking from Prince George, B.C."A
lot of my family members lost their homes. It's still not over yet,
they're still trying to stop that fire."The provincial government
declared a state of emergency Wednesday as more than 560 wildfires burn
in every corner of the province. Residents of about 1,500 properties
have been forced to evacuate, while thousands more are on evacuation
alerts and must be prepared to leave at a moment's notice.A new
evacuation alert was issued late Thursday for the entire city of
Kimberley and other properties directly south and southwest of the city
in the Regional District East Kootenay. The southeast B.C. city has
about 4,500 residents.Mayor Don McCormick said in a statement that if an
evacuation is needed, residents will be given as much advance notice as
possible, but cautioned there may be limited notice due to changing
conditions.Two evacuation orders were issued earlier in the evening. One
posted by the Cariboo Regional District covering 62 properties in the
Dean River North area, including the Itcha Ilgachuz Provincial Park. The
other covers 65 addresses east of Kootenay in the St. Mary's Lake
area.Many people connected to Telegraph Creek are pitching in to help
those displaced and save the town. Edzerza's son is among those fighting
the fire in Telegraph Creek, while Michaud's sister is collecting
donations in nearby Dease Lake."That's their home. They're going to go
back and set up tents if they have to," said Michaud. "We're going to do
everything we can to make sure they have a home to go back to. That
land is our roots."Smoke has triggered air quality advisories across
Western Canada, and Michaud said it was so smoky in Prince George that
it was dark at 6 p.m. on Wednesday. When she went looking for masks,
they were sold out everywhere."It's just awful here," she said.About 250
members of the Tahltan Nation and non-Indigenous residents live in
Telegraph Creek. All have been evacuated, but some members of the First
Nation have stayed behind to fight the fires, said Chief Rick
Mclean.Most Tahltan members who lost homes have been notified, he said,
adding about 21 of the destroyed structures are on the reserve."It's
heart-wrenching and worrisome, thinking about how we're going to
rebuild," he said. "It's going to take some time. There's a lot of work
that needs to be done to make it safe. We're still under evacuation
order and fighting the fight."The federal government has promised to
send 200 Canadian Armed Forces members to B.C. to help. A first team of
100 was deployed early Thursday to an area west of Kelowna to start the
mop-up of contained fires.The Department of National Defence said it's
still working with the BC Wildfire Service to determine where and when
the other troops will be needed.Fire crews from across the province are
also pitching in to fight the flames. Vancouver Fire Chief Darrell Reid
said on social media Thursday that city fire trucks and crews were on
their way north to Fort St. James.The fire vehicles will be shipped on
flatbed trucks for the 15-hour journey, he said.Thirty-six new fires
started between Wednesday morning and Thursday afternoon, mostly sparked
by lightning, said wildfire service spokeswoman Kyla Fraser.The
greatest area of concern is a corridor between Smithers and Prince
George in north-central B.C., where many of the biggest fires are
burning, she said.A wildfire about 30 kilometres northeast of Burns Lake
has doubled in size in recent days to 680 square kilometres, making it
the largest in the province. There are 113 firefighters battling the
blaze along with support workers, aircraft and heavy equipment, said
Fraser.As for the fire in Telegraph Creek, crews are facing difficult
weather including hot, dry conditions and forecasted winds, she
said.Erma Bourquin, a resident of Iskut, about three hours from
Telegraph Creek, said about 90 evacuees from the town sought refuge in
her community.About half of them have already moved on to other
communities, she added.The air is so smoky there that one resident
hasn't been able to leave her house for days because of her respiratory
problems, Bourquin said.She said she's prepared to leave Iskut if an
evacuation order is issued and has packed a bag with family
photographs."There are mixed emotions, some are hopeful," Bourquin
said."There are a lot who have fear, especially when it gets really
smoky here. And it's a loss for some of (the evacuees) because some of
them have lost their homes."The Canadian Press.
B.C. forest fires could impact Manitoba's air quality for rest of August-[CBC]-YAHOONEWS-August 19, 2018
Manitoba
could be at risk of compromised air quality for the rest of August as
wildfires continue to burn in British Columbia, says a meteorologist
with Environment Canada.Air quality advisories remain in effect Thursday
for southwest Manitoba as smoke from forest fires burning across
British Columbia drifts east.Elevated pollution levels are expected or
occurring, which could cause increased coughing, throat irritation,
headaches or shortness of breath for some people, says Environment
Canada. Over the course of the day, air quality could improve for
southern Manitoba, but winds from the west could make smoky conditions
return again tomorrow, said John Paul Cragg, with Environment Canada.By
this weekend, north winds are expected to clean the air in the province,
he said. In Winnipeg, though conditions are hazy, they are low risk,
Cragg said. "It all has to do with how much of that smoke is getting to
the ground," he said. The smoke should not create issues for people "as
long as the smoke stays up in the air and is not making it down to where
people are breathing it in." The B.C. government declared a
provincewide state of emergency yesterday due to the forest fires.If
you're concerned, Environment Canada advises that you contact your
health-care provider or call Health Links at 204-788-8200 or toll-free

Calgary Fire Department logs record opioid overdose calls in July-[The Canadian Press]-YAHOONEWS-August 19, 2018
CALGARY
— The Calgary Fire Department says there were a record number of opioid
overdose calls in July.It says the 144 calls marked a 20 per cent
increase over the same month last year and a 450 per cent increase over
July 2016.January and March of this year had set records, with 134 and
139 overdose calls respectively.The fire department says crews have been
administering the overdose antidote naloxone, which reverses the
effects of opioids such as fentanyl, to one patient a day on
average.Opioid overdose calls had never exceeded 10 per month until
April 2015.Fire Chief Steve Dongworth says it's a concerning trend and
the calls are dispersed throughout the city."We may not be at peak yet,
based on what we're seeing on the front lines," Dongworth said in a
statement Thursday. "We really do hope to see a plateau and decline in
these numbers, knowing that significant efforts are being made to
address the crisis."Alberta has opened several safe consumption sites,
including in Calgary and Edmonton, and has made naloxone kits more
easily available.Dr. Karen Grimsrud, co-chair of Alberta's opioid
response committee, has said initiatives such as faster and improved
treatment response along with targeted law enforcement are also
helping.There were 228 opioid overdose deaths in the province in the
first 18 weeks of this year and 583 deaths in 2017.The Canadian Press.
Suspected opioid overdoses contributing to backlog at coroner's office-[CBC]-YAHOONEWS-August 19, 2018
Ontario's
chief coroner says a surge in overdose deaths is putting a strain on
medical examiners.At least seven people have died of suspected overdoses
since the beginning of August in downtown Toronto, prompting police to
issue a warning about street drugs laced with fentanyl or carfentanil —
powerful opioids that can be deadly.Dr. Dirk Huyer, Ontario's Chief
Coroner, says his office must probe any unnatural death."The fact that
there's a drug or some other cause that isn't disease-related, provides
an opportunity to identify some recommendations to inform prevention or
reduction of future deaths," Huyer told CBC Radio's Metro
Morning.However, the overdose deaths are creating a backlog when it
comes to dealing with other fatalities, he said. Already, the coroner
recognized this as a significant problem and are making changes to speed
things up.It's unclear how big the backlog is, but overdoses are a
major contributing factor.Huyer says there's been a 46 per cent increase
in overdose deaths. Put another way: "400 additional people died in
2017 over the year 2016," he said."We have asked all of those involved
... to make best efforts to complete cases within three months where
there's an opioid-related death."Ontario has seen steady increase in the
number of overdose deaths in recent years. The coroner is also
expanding the amount of information it collects in these cases, with the
goal of identifying broader trends.

forms Iran Action Group to run policy after nuke deal withdrawal-State
Department policy planning chief Brian Hook tapped to head new body to
focus US efforts on effecting a change in Iranian regime's 'violence and
destabilizing behavior'-By Matthew Lee-TOI-AUG 20,18
WASHINGTON
(AP) — US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Thursday formed a group to
coordinate and run US policy toward Iran as the Trump administration
moves ahead with efforts to force changes in the Islamic Republic’s
behavior after withdrawing from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal.Accusing Iran
of unleashing “a torrent of violence and destabilizing behavior against
the United States, our allies, our partners and, indeed, the Iranian
people themselves,” Pompeo announced the creation of the Iran Action
Group, which he said would drive administration policy in Washington and
overseas.He said the administration remains willing to talk to Iran but
that in order to do so “we must see major changes in the regime’s
behavior both inside and outside its borders.”Pompeo named Brian Hook,
who is currently the State Department’s director of policy planning, to
run the group with the title of special representative for Iran. Hook
led the administration’s ultimately unsuccessful attempt to negotiate
changes to the nuclear deal with European allies before US President
Donald Trump decided in May to pull out of the accord.Since withdrawing,
the administration has re-imposed sanctions that were eased under the
deal and has steadily ramped up pressure on Iran to try to get it to
stop what it describes as “malign activities” in the region. In addition
to its nuclear and missile programs, the administration has repeatedly
criticized Iran for supporting Syrian President Bashar Assad, Lebanon’s
Hezbollah movement, Shiite rebels in Yemen and anti-Israel groups.It has
also in recent weeks stepped up criticism of Iran’s human rights record
and is working with other nations to curb their imports of Iranian
oil.The administration is warning Iran’s oil customers that they will
face US sanctions in November unless they significantly reduce their
imports with an eye on eliminating them entirely. It has also told
businesses and governments in Europe that they may also be subject to
penalties if they violate, ignore or attempt to subvert the re-imposed
US sanctions.Hook, accusing Iran of being “a force for instability and
violence,” said he would also keep the door open to talks but made clear
that US efforts to isolate Tehran both economically and diplomatically
would not end until its leadership changed policies.“The burden is on
the Iranian regime to change its behavior,” he said.Critics of the
administration’s approach suggested that Hook’s new position was a sign
the US was adopting a policy of regime change in Iran, something that
Pompeo and other officials have denied. They maintain they only want to
see the government change course.Some critics noted that the creation of
the Iran Action Group was announced during the 65th anniversary of the
five-day period in 1953 in which former Iranian Prime Minister Mohammad
Mosaddegh was overthrown in a US- and British-backed coup.Hook said the
timing was “pure coincidence” and rejected comparisons between the Iran
group and an earlier State Department initiative known as the “Future of
Iraq Project” that was undertaken when US policy was to promote the
downfall of former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.Hook is expected to be
replaced as policy planning chief by Kiron Skinner, a foreign policy
academic and adviser to several Republican presidential candidates who
served on Trump’s national security transition team and very briefly at
the State Department after Trump took office, according to officials who
were not authorized to publicly discuss personnel matters and spoke on
condition of anonymity.
Bin Laden raid commander to Trump:
Revoke my security clearance too-'You have embarrassed us in the eyes of
our children and divided us as a nation,' charges retired decorated
Navy admiral William McRaven-By AFP-TOI-AUG 20,18
WASHINGTON
— William McRaven, commander of the US Navy SEAL raid that killed Osama
bin Laden, condemned President Donald Trump on Thursday for revoking
the security clearance of former CIA chief John Brennan and asked that
his be withdrawn as well.The decorated retired Navy admiral, in an open
letter published in The Washington Post, defended Brennan as “one of the
finest public servants I have ever known” and accused Trump of using
“McCarthy-era tactics.”“Few Americans have done more to protect this
country than John,” McRaven said. “He is a man of unparalleled
integrity, whose honesty and character have never been in question,
except by those who don’t know him.”“Therefore, I would consider it an
honor if you would revoke my security clearance as well, so I can add my
name to the list of men and women who have spoken up against your
presidency,” he said.McRaven was the head of US Joint Special Operations
Command from 2011 to 2014 and supervised the SEAL raid that killed bin
Laden in Pakistan in 2011.“Like most Americans, I had hoped that when
you became president, you would rise to the occasion and become the
leader this great nation needs,” McRaven said.“A good leader tries to
embody the best qualities of his or her organization,” he said. “A good
leader sets the example for others to follow. A good leader always puts
the welfare of others before himself or herself.”“Your leadership,
however, has shown little of these qualities,” McRaven said. “Through
your actions, you have embarrassed us in the eyes of our children,
humiliated us on the world stage and, worst of all, divided us as a
nation.“If you think for a moment that your McCarthy-era tactics will
suppress the voices of criticism, you are sadly mistaken,” McRaven said.
“The criticism will continue until you become the leader we prayed you
would be.”Trump revoked the security clearance of Brennan on Wednesday
and warned several other prominent critics that they too risk being
blacklisted.Following the president’s summit last month with Russia’s
Vladimir Putin, Brennan — who headed the CIA under Obama — described
Trump’s behavior as “nothing short of treasonous.”Trump for his part
accused the ex-spy chief of tossing around “unfounded and outrageous
allegations — wild outbursts on the internet and television — about this
administration” and engaging in “increasingly frenzied commentary.”
Judge lifts publication ban, revealing details about Fredericton shooting-[The Canadian Press]-YAHOONEWS-August 19, 2018
FREDERICTON
— A New Brunswick judge has lifted a publication ban on court documents
in the Fredericton shooting that killed four people, revealing details
about how the deadly attack unfolded.The province's Court of Queen's
Bench had issued the ban on Monday — hours after media reported on their
content — imposing an information blackout on the sequence of events
that claimed the lives of Bobbie Lee Wright, Donnie Robichaud and police
constables Robb Costello and Sara Burns.The documents unsealed Friday
revealed the alleged gunman was wounded in the abdomen as he allegedly
engaged another officer from his apartment window.The Crown information
sheet says around 7:20 a.m. last Friday, a woman called 911 to report
shots fired at 237 Brookside Drive.The document says the woman said
someone was on the ground and she wasn't sure if they were alive.Upon
arrival, Costello and Burns went into the driveway while another officer
who arrived moments after, Sgt. Jason Forward, stopped to ask questions
of a passerby."Sgt. Forward then heard a couple more gunshots so he
proceeded into 237 Brookside Drive in back of building C," the document
states."Once there, he noticed Constables Costello and Burns laying on
the ground not moving. He also noticed another male on the ground and
not moving, beside Const. Costello."A male witness told Forward that
shots were coming from the top floor of the apartment building. He and
another officer then entered the building, set up containment and
confirmed the alleged shooter was in Apartment 11-C.Forward later
learned that another officer, described in the documents as Const.
Arbeau, had engaged the shooter after he saw him point his long gun at
him from the window."Const. Arbeau believed he had hit the shooter in
the torso," the document says."A little while later members of the
(Fredericton Police Force Emergency Response Team) entered the apartment
and took the lone occupant and shooter into custody. The suspect had
been shot in the abdomen."Police found "items believed to be firearm(s)
and ammunition" inside the apartment.Police have said previously that
Wright and Robichaud, who had just begun a romantic relationship, were
shot first in the parking lot outside Robichaud's apartment building,
and the two officers were shot when they responded.Police say in the
document that Wright's body was found in the passenger side of a vehicle
— which was registered to Wright — and all four victims were found in
and around the vehicle.The vehicle's windshield had been blown
out.Police say Costello, Robichaud and Wright were pronounced dead at
the scene while Burns was taken to hospital, where she was pronounced
dead.Matthew Vincent Raymond, 48, has been charged with four counts of
first-degree murder. He is set to appear in court on Aug. 27.Several
media organizations had challenged the publication ban in court, and
arguments were made earlier this week.Prosecutor Cameron Gunn had told
the court that the Crown was prepared to lift the blanket publication
ban, but an amended order seeking a more "narrow ban'' had been filed
instead. That ban would have unsealed the documents but continue to
block the publication of names of individuals who have not spoken with
media yet.But David Coles, a lawyer representing several media outlets,
argued there was no basis for sealing the identities of individuals
named in the court documents. He said the names would be in the public
domain during the trial, and that reporters could learn the names from
other sources.In handing down her decision Friday, Justice Judy
Clendening said "the evidence falls short of establishing that a ban
should be granted, even in the narrow situation of the protection of the
privacy of the individuals.""I do not find that the salutary effects of
granting the publication ban strongly outweighs the deleterious
impacts," the judge said in an eight-page decision delivered orally.On
Friday, Coles called the judge's decision sound, saying that there must
be compelling evidence to justify overturning the presumption of an open
court and a transparent judicial process."This terrible tragedy I
suggest leaves a community hungry for as many details as they can be
given to try to understand what happened," said Coles, who represented a
consortium of media outlets including CTV, CBC, Global, Brunswick News,
Postmedia and The Globe and Mail."So long as the details that are
released won't interfere or hinder the police investigation or the
prosecution in any way, then providing that information in my opinion
just better informs the citizens of Fredericton and indeed all Canadians
in this national interest story."Brett Bundale, The Canadian Press.
At least 7 Pennsylvania priests accused of sex abuse were sent to Toronto-area clergy rehab-[CBC]-YAHOONEWS-August 20, 2018
In
1984, shortly after admitting to sexually molesting a 14-year-old
child, Rev. John Connor of Pennsylvania was sent to a Toronto-area
facility that helps clergy deal with addictions, mental-health issues
and sexual disorders.After eight months of treatment at the Southdown
Institute, officials there warned the church that Connor should not be
put in a position where he would have responsibility for adolescents.
Yet the church seemed to ignore the institute's advice, and would later
assign Connor to a parish in Conshohocken, Pa., with a grade school and
encourage him to "educate youth."These allegations are found in the more
than 1,300 pages of an explosive grand jury report released Tuesday
that claims hundreds of Roman Catholic priests in Pennsylvania engaged
in sexual abuse since the 1940s.Of the victims, more than 1,000 were
children, but that total could be thousands more, the grand jury
concluded.Within the report are several Canadian connections, including a
few cases where abuse is said to have occurred on Canadian soil.The
report says at least seven Pennsylvania priests were sent to Southdown
for treatment. But the institute's assessment of some of those priests —
that they should never be near children — didn't seem to deter the
church from allowing them to continue to play a role in church
activities.Southdown is a rehab centre for priests located about 65
kilometres north of Toronto in Holland Landing. It moved from its old
location in nearby Aurora in 2013.It has a team of psychologists and
psychiatrists who mostly deal with clergy suffering from issues such as
alcoholism and depression. But some priests have also been treated there
for molesting children.The grand jury report says in Connor's case, he
never went to trial because church lawyers negotiated an agreement to
have his record of arrest erased if he admitted to the molestation
allegation and avoided being arrested again for a year.Southdown's
assessment was that Connor "acts out sexually with some preference to
late adolescent males" because of his problem with alcohol, the report
says."They specifically warned against giving Connor responsibility for
adolescents," it says, and "would not recommend any ministry that would
directly put him in a position of responsibility for adolescents such as
a teaching situation."Yet the church would later give Connor
assignments featuring an "unrestricted ministry," the report says, with
"no warning to the parishioners of the church that he was an admitted
child molester."The grand jury says a man would later claim that during
that time, from 1986 to 1988, when he was 12 to 14, he was repeatedly
molested by Connor.In another case, Rev. Thomas C. Kelley was accused of
inappropriate sexual conduct with at least five victims who were 18- to
25-year-old males in high school or in the seminary, the report says.
Kelley allegedly engaged in mutual masturbation, and oral and anal sex
with his victims in Odessa, Pa.In the fall of 1995, Kelley was sent to
the Southdown Institute for a week-long assessment."It was determined
that Kelley should have a restricted ministry that kept him away from
young parishioners," the grand jury report says.Kelley was later sent
back to Southdown for "several months of treatment," the report says,
during which time he "reflected on his conduct while in Odessa and
decided that he was not ready to quit serving God."Over the course of
the next several years, Kelley spent most of his time as a priest in the
Diocese of San Angelo, Texas. Another reverend, John Hoehl, was
admitted to Southdown following a report of sexual abuse in 1986. He
underwent therapy for approximately six months and was later discharged.
During his treatment, the report says, the director of Southdown said
Hoehl claimed he had been sexually involved with several high school
students when he was headmaster of a Catholic high school in Baden,
Pa.Southdown provided the diocese in Pittsburgh with an assessment that
said Hoehl was a pedophile, according to the grand jury. Yet he would
later be assigned as an educational consultant to the secretary of
education for the diocese. He was also appointed chaplain at a hospital,
the report says. "The expiration of the statute of limitations
prevented Hoehl from being arrested and charged criminally for sexual
abuse of minors."The same is true for many cases documented in the grand
jury report.The report also reveals details about cases where abuse is
said to have occurred in Canada.One priest is alleged to have sexually
assaulted two boys in a hotel room in Toronto while on a retreat.Another
priest is alleged to have taken a trip with a boy to Canada, slept in
the same bed with him and served him alcohol.The grand jury report also
mentions the police investigation in 1988 of Rev. Robert G. Wolk, who
was alleged to have sexually assaulted boys."During the investigation it
was alleged that other unnamed priests conducted sado-masochistic
rituals on several young boys in Washington and Somerset Counties, as
well as in Florida and Canada," the report says.It also refers to a
Pittsburgh Press newspaper article quoting a district attorney who said
"investigators were looking into more than 200 acts Wolk allegedly
committed with one of the youths in Canada, Virginia, Florida and
Ohio."— With files from Phillip Ling and The Associated Press.
