Tesla partly liable in Florida Autopilot trial, jury awards $200M punitive damages
A jury in federal court in Miami has found Tesla partly to blame for a fatal 2019 crash that involved the use of the company's Autopilot driver assistance system. The jury awarded the plaintiffs $200 million in punitive damages, along with 'compensatory damages for pain and suffering,' according to NBC News. Neither the driver of the car nor the Autopilot system braked in time to avoid going through an intersection, where the car struck an SUV and killed a pedestrian. The jury assigned the driver two-thirds of the blame, and attributed one-third to Tesla. (The driver was sued separately.) The verdict comes at the end of a three-week trial over the crash, which killed 20-year-old Naibel Benavides Leon and severely injured her boyfriend Dillon Angulo. It's one of the first major legal decisions about driver assistance technology that has gone against Tesla. This story is developing…

Suspect in 2023 fatal Bronx car wash hit-and-run charged with manslaughter
A suspect in a fatal hit-and-run at a New York City car wash has been arrested more than two years after the accident killed an employee at the 24-hour business. Trina Bryant was arrested Wednesday after the NYPD said she struck and killed Felix Thomas Bontia in the Bronx in February 2023. She pled not guilty to an 11-count indictment charging her with manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide, driving while under the influence of alcohol, and more. According to police, Bryant was driving a Ford Escape with Georgia plates when it veered into a bus lane and struck a Toyota RAV4 that Bontia was drying off on Webster Avenue near 168th Street in the borough's Concourse Village section. Bontia was pinned between the cars and did not survive. Investigators at the time said there were two women in the Ford Escape, the driver and a front-seat passenger, who drove a short distance away before they fled on foot. The accident, which occurred at around 5:30 a.m. on Sunday, Feb. 19, 2023, was captured on surveillance video. Bontia worked at the car wash for about a year while his family was back home in Mexico, CBS News New York reported at the time. His friends and coworkers in the city said they called him Benito Felix. The driver in the RAV4 was hospitalized with minor injuries.

Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein's associate, moved to federal prison in Texas
Ghislaine Maxwell, an associate of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, has been transferred from a federal correctional facility in Tallahassee, Florida, to a facility in Bryan, Texas, CBS News has learned. No reason was given for the move. Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence after she was convicted in 2021 for her role in helping Epstein recruit and abuse underage girls. An appeal of her conviction is currently awaiting action by the Supreme Court, which is set to discuss whether to take up her case at its closed-door conference in late September. Maxwell had been held at the federal correctional institute in Tallahassee, a low-security facility with a population of nearly 1,200 inmates. The federal prison camp in Bryan, where she's been moved, is considered minimum security and houses 635 inmates, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons. The move was condemned in a statement by several of Epstein and Maxwell's accusers, including the family of Virginia Giuffre, who died by suicide earlier this year. "It is with horror and outrage that we object to the preferential treatment convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell has received. Ghislaine Maxwell is a sexual predator who physically assaulted minor children on multiple occasions, and she should never be shown any leniency. Yet, without any notification to the Maxwell victims, the government overnight has moved Maxwell to a minimum security luxury prison in Texas. This is the justice system failing victims right before our eyes," they said in a statement. "The American public should be enraged by the preferential treatment being given to a pedophile and a criminally charged child sex offender. The Trump administration should not credit a word Maxwell says, as the government itself sought charges against Maxwell for being a serial liar. This move smacks of a cover up. The victims deserve better," the statement continued. The transfer comes days after Maxwell met with Todd Blanche, the deputy attorney general, at the U.S. Attorney's Office in Tallahassee to discuss Epstein's case last week. Her lawyer, David Oscar Markus, said she answered all of Blanche's questions across two days of talks. Blanche sought to interview Maxwell as the White House and Justice Department have faced pressure to release more information about Epstein and the files the government amassed during its investigation. The backlash arose after the Justice Department and FBI released a memo earlier this month that concluded Epstein did not have a "client list" and confirmed he died by suicide in jail in 2019, shortly after he was indicted on federal sex trafficking charges. The memo also concluded that there was no "credible evidence" that the disgraced financier blackmailed prominent people. The Justice Department and FBI said they did not plan to release any further information about Epstein's case. But the findings frustrated some of President Trump's allies, who were skeptical of the Justice Department's claim that there is nothing left to divulge. In addition to Blanche's interview with Maxwell, the Justice Department asked federal judges in New York who handled Epstein's and Maxwell's cases to unseal transcripts from those grand jury proceedings. Congressional investigators have also subpoenaed Maxwell to sit for a deposition. But Markus, her lawyer, said she would only be willing to provide lawmakers with information if she were granted immunity by a House committee or clemency by Mr. Trump. Epstein was initially investigated by federal authorities in Florida in the 2000s, which ended in a federal non-prosecution agreement and a guilty plea on state prostitution charges in 2008. He was arrested again on federal sex trafficking charges in 2019 and was awaiting trial at the time of his death, which the medical examiner ruled a MacFarlane contributed to this report.
