Michigan man accused of leading police on high-speed chase that killed woman pleads to murder charges
A Michigan man accused of stealing a Jeep from a dealership, leading police on a high-speed chase and killing a woman in a crash pleaded no contest to several charges. Macomb County prosecutors allege that on April 29, 2021, Angelo Rickey Smith, who was 17 years old at the time, and other accomplices stole multiple vehicles from a Metro Detroit dealership. Smith then allegedly led police on a chase on M-53 that reached speeds of more than 130 miles per hour and ran a red light at 15 Mile Road and Van Dyke, causing a collision with two other vehicles that killed 20-year-old Emmon Woods, prosecutors said. On Thursday, Smith, 21, pleaded no contest to second-degree murder, first-degree fleeing and eluding a police officer, breaking and entering a building with intent, and larceny in a building. "This remains a deeply troubling issue," said Macomb County Prosecutor Peter J. Lucido in a statement. "Here, a young man stole a vehicle and then made the decision to flee from the police, which resulted in the death of an innocent young woman whose life was just ahead of her. There must be consequences to stop this behavior before it ends up with these tragic results." Lucido says he's calling for bipartisan legislation to address what he calls a "growing public safety threat of drivers who refuse to stop for law enforcement." "Every time someone runs, they roll the dice with innocent lives. I want to end that gamble," Lucido said. "We need statutory enhancement of consequences, including mandatory prison time. The people of the state of Michigan deserve to be protected." Smith will be sentenced on Sept. 4.

Black Woman Sues University Of Michigan For ‘Racist' Firing
Source: Nic Antaya / Getty A Black woman who was the former head of the University of Michigan's diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) office is suing the school, alleging she was discriminated against when the school fired her for antisemitic remarks she said she never made. According to the Detroit Free Press, Rachel Dawson attended an academic conference in March 2024 when she was approached by two women asking her how the school was planning to address antisemitism. The women allege Dawson, who then ran University of Michigan's Office of Academic Multicultural Initiatives, responded by saying 'The university is controlled by wealthy Jews' and 'We don't work with Jews.' Dawson has a different recollection of the events and denies ever making remarks of the sort. From Detroit Free Press: Dawson said she remembered talking with the two women who accused her, but her recollection of the conversation was far different. She said that when the two women heard she was from U-M, they approached her to discuss rumors of antisemitism on campus. Dawson said she told them that the school was doing its best to combat antisemitism and all forms of discrimination. She noted that the school had recently opened the Raoul Wallenberg Institute to promote tolerance and that Jewish students had access to support groups like Hillel . Dawson's suit said the women became hostile, began berating her and even followed her out of the room when she tried to end the conversation. Days later, back at U-M, Dawson said she learned that the women had contacted the Anti-Defamation League, which filed a complaint about her with then-President Santa Ono. 'I am aware of several non-Black employees of the university who have been the subject of similar complaints about their behavior, and none have been terminated,' Dawson wrote in a statement to the school before her disciplinary hearing. 'The allegations against me illustrate how racial and gender biases can shape the interpretation of events and statements, especially for Black women in positions of authority.' Call me racist, but I'm much more inclined to believe that a group of white women got offended that a Black woman didn't say exactly what they wanted to hear, instead of a Black woman, in a position of power, willfully throwing that out the window to say something heinously antisemitic in a professional setting. Just saying, we didn't coin the term 'Karen' because entitled white women don't exist. Moving on, Dawson alleges the University of Michigan didn't follow its usual disciplinary steps when it comes to investigating incidents like these. The school hired an outside law firm, Covington & Burling LLP, to investigate instead of doing it in-house. Covington & Burling also represented the ADL in this case, which Dawson's lawyers allege to be a conflict of interest. The law firm's report acknowledged that Dawson and the women had differing accounts of the incident but found 'the weight of the available evidence supports the conclusion that Ms. Dawson made the statements attributed to her in the ADL Michigan letter.' Tabbye Chavous, Dawson's supervisor, was skeptical of how the investigation was being conducted and the findings in the final report. Chavous wrote a letter to the University of Michigan's then-President Santa Ono saying that 'Based on all information available to me, I would respectfully disagree with the conclusion drawn from the report.' 'It is obvious that this is not consistent with our normal processes for investigating alleged similar conduct of employees in a similar position as Ms. Dawson at an off-campus conference,' Chavous wrote. 'Why is the process for this situation and employee seemingly different from similar kinds of allegations and issues with others and how they are dealt with normally?' After the investigation, Chavous issued Dawson a warning and ordered her to complete anti-bias training. Usually, this would be where the story ends, but not in the case of Dawson. When word of the disciplinary action reached the University of Michigan's Board of Regents, Regent Mark Bernstein wrote, 'that the only acceptable outcome would be for Ms. Dawson to be 'terminated immediately.'' By December 2024, Dawson was fired from her position. Being prejudiced against someone for their race, religion, gender, or sexuality is the weakest thing a person can do. Yet it's interesting that whenever a white man is accused of racism, all he's expected to do is take an anti-bias class, make an apology, and the consequences are waved away. What Dawson is accused of is objectively awful, yet one can't help but see the double standard in how she's being treated compared to the multitudes of white men who have actually been recorded saying equally if not more heinous things and are still given chance after chance to redeem themselves. The University of Michigan has stood by its decision to fire Dawson. 'Rachel Dawson was appropriately terminated from her employment at the University of Michigan,' school spokeswoman Kay Jarvis told the Free Press in an email. 'We will vigorously defend this matter.' Dawson filed her lawsuit in federal court and intends to file a state court discrimination claim as well. Dawson's suit asks the court to declare the University of Michigan violated her civil rights and to award her an undisclosed amount in damages.

Judge orders release of migrant trans woman held in male section of ICE facility
A Mexican transgender migrant seeking asylum in the U.S. after allegedly being abducted and raped by cartel members has been ordered released from an all-male Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention facility by a federal judge on due process grounds. U.S. District Court Judge Amy Baggio, a President Joe Biden appointee, ordered the migrant released from the Northwest ICE Processing Center in Tacoma, Washington, ruling that the asylum seeker had been deprived of liberty without proper procedural safeguards. The migrant, a 24-year-old transgender woman identified as "O-J-M" in court documents, was arrested outside a Portland courtroom last month and transferred to the Northwest ICE Processing Center in Tacoma, Washington. Federal Judge Orders Mexican Migrant Seeking Asylum To Be Released By Ice The nonprofit Innovation Law Lab, whose attorneys represent O-J-M, welcomed the move and decried the fact O-J-M was being held at a man's facility. "President Trump's anti-transgender executive order forced her into a men's facility, and into solitary confinement for her own safety, adding layers of cruelty to an already unconstitutional detention," a social media post by Innovation Law Lab reads. Read On The Fox News App "OJM was detained for over a month simply for legally seeking asylum. Seeking asylum is lawful, and a human right. This is a huge victory for our trans and immigrant communities in Oregon." O-J-M's attorneys said O-J-M was abducted and raped in Mexico because of gender identity and sexual orientation and was seeking asylum on those grounds. O-J-M was arrested in Portland's immigration court in early June after a judge granted the government's request to dismiss the asylum case. O-J-M was then transferred to an ICE detention facility in Tacoma, Washington and held there for over 40 days. But O-J-M's attorneys filed a habeas petition, a legal motion asking the court to review whether the detention was lawful, saying they were not aware of their client's location after O-J-M was taken into custody. Trump 'Working On' Deportation Exemptions For Illegal Farm And Hospitality Workers Under due process standards, especially in asylum cases, attorneys must be able to locate their client and ICE is required to notify or justify sudden detentions and transfers. In O-J-M's case, the judge found that ICE's failure to provide timely, specific information about the migrant's location and legal status violated fundamental procedural fairness. The judge had also demanded to know why it was deemed immediately necessary. One of the migrant's attorneys, Stephen Manning, of Immigrant Law Group, previously told Opb that O-J-M was processed into the Tacoma detention center, but he had not been granted access to her since her transfer. "They threatened to kill her because O-J-M is a transgender woman," her habeas petition states, per OPB. "Fearing for her life, she fled and sought asylum in the United States in September 2023." Manning told Willamette Weekly that his client had not committed a crime while in the U.S. O-J-M has regularly checked in at ICE offices as instructed. Oregon sanctuary laws prevent it from having long-term immigration detention facilities, and — aside from temporary holding cells at the Portland ICE office — the nearest immigration detention center is the Tacoma article source: Judge orders release of migrant trans woman held in male section of ICE facility Solve the daily Crossword
