Homeless encampments with over 30 residents cleared in Woodland Hills, Beverly Grove
The efforts were a part of the county's Inside Safe operation, a program designed to help homeless residents get off the streets and into housing.
The Woodland Hills encampment was located in front of Warner Center Park. The two Beverly Grove encampments were located among businesses, an assisted living facility and local residences.
Photos from the operations showed county workers helping the homeless residents gather their belongings before they were transported by bus into interim housing.
'Every unhoused person we get off the streets and into interim housing and services is a step forward, and I'm grateful to all our partners for their efforts,' said L.A. County councilmember Bob Blumenfield.
Since the program debuted in December 2022, Inside Safe has moved 4,037 homeless residents off the streets. Around 905 residents have moved into permanent housing and 86 encampments have been addressed.
'Public spaces where neighbors gather exemplify the spirit of our city coming together,' said L.A. Mayor Karen Bass. 'By connecting people living on the streets or in parks with secure housing and supportive services, we ensure the health and well-being of all residents and the community as a whole.'

Corrections: July 26, 2025
An obituary on Wednesday about the singer Ozzy Osbourne misstated the location of an incident that led to his being banned from performing in San Antonio. It happened at the Alamo Cenotaph, a memorial just outside the walls of the Alamo — not at the Alamo itself. The obituary also misstated the original surname of Mr. Osbourne's mother. It was Unitt, not Levy. Because of an editing error, an obituary on Monday about the Olympic runner and track coach Bill Dellinger misidentified one of the standout runners he coached. He is Matt Centrowitz, an Olympian who won four United States national championships in the 5,000-meter run from 1979 to 1982, not his son, Matthew Centrowitz Jr., who won the gold medal in the 1,500 meters at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.

Lori Vallow Daybell stoked tensions with judge in her Arizona murder conspiracy trials
PHOENIX (AP) — Moments before the Idaho mother with doomsday beliefs was given two more life sentences in prison, she complained about jail conditions and the legal system, saying the rules of evidence do not allow two sides of the story. Judge Justin Beresky abruptly interrupted, saying: 'Actually, they do.' It was a moment that further highlighted the tension between Lori Vallow Daybell, who represented herself in two murder conspiracy cases in Arizona, and Beresky, who pulled no punches when the time came for him to address the court. Beresky said Vallow Daybell was not truthful when she claimed she was prevented from telling her side of the story and was unable to get a fair trial. The media attention she craved, he said, will fade into obscurity now that her trials are over. 'The amount of contemplation, calculation, planning and manipulation that went into these crimes is unparalleled in my career,' said Beresky, who has been a Maricopa County Superior Court judge since 2017 and has presided over other high-profile cases. Friday's sentencing ended the legal saga of Vallow Daybell, 51, who will likely spend no time in an Arizona prison because she already was serving three life sentences in Idaho for killing her two youngest children and conspiring to kill a romantic rival. In Arizona she was convicted of conspiring to kill her estranged husband, Charles Vallow, and her niece's ex-husband, Brandon Boudreaux. Charles Vallow was fatally shot, while Boudreaux survived. Vallow Daybell maintained that she did nothing wrong and said the string of deaths were simply tragedies. She turned to her own religious beliefs in saying she believes she is among servants who Jesus is sending into prison to become warriors and who, ultimately, will be released to serve him. Beresky implied that she got the meaning wrong when she referenced a verse about prisoners going free. 'That is a verse about people that accept Jesus can be in prison and they will go free when they die and go to heaven, but it will take an act of God for you to go free,' the judge said. 'In short, you should never be released from prison.' Vallow Daybell's trials in Phoenix were infused with her religious beliefs, including that people in her life were possessed by evil spirits. She routinely sparred with Beresky, occasionally leaning over to consult with her advisory counsel. Charles Vallow's sister, Kay Woodcock, praised the judge's demeanor outside the courtroom. 'I don't think we could have had a better judge,' she said. 'He is a better man than a lot of people putting up with her like he did.' Mel McDonald, a retired Maricopa County judge who was not involved in the trials but watched them, said Beresky did an exceptional job of maintaining courtroom decorum and demonstrated extraordinary patience despite obstructive tactics from Vallow Daybell. 'He gives her latitude,' McDonald said. 'But he doesn't let her run wild.' Last month, during the trial over the conspiracy to kill Boudreaux, Vallow Daybell falsely accused Beresky of yelling at her after he explained that her efforts to introduce favorable evidence about her character could open the door to jurors hearing about her convictions in Idaho and for Vallow's death. 'You don't need to talk to me that way,' Vallow Daybell said. 'Take her out,' Beresky told a security officer, who led her from the courtroom. In defending herself, Vallow Daybell struggled with legal matters that most lawyers consider routine, such as lining up witnesses to testify. She insisted on exercising her speedy trial rights and rejected the judge's offer for later dates, yet complained about not having enough time to prepare. She also tried to get Beresky removed from the case, arguing that he was biased against her. In another moment emblematic of the tensions between judge and defendant, Beresky expressed skepticism during jury selection for her second Arizona trial when she claimed she was too sick to move forward. The proceedings were postponed for the day. But the trial continued, with Beresky later saying there was no objective evidence to support her claims. ___ Associated Press writers Hannah Schoenbaum in Salt Lake City and Sejal Govindarao in Phoenix contributed.

Oneida County DA moves to remove judge from Kaitlyn Conley case
The Oneida County District Attorney's Office has filed a motion to recuse the judge presiding over the Kaitlyn Conley case. Oneida County District Attorney Todd Carville filed the motion on June 25 against Supreme Court Justice Judge Bernadette Clark, citing 'the court's demeanor and responses,' a continued failure to remedy a ruling, and comments made at a June holiday party that indicated judicial bias. All of this was revealed in court documents recently unsealed and made public. The Kaitlyn Conley case Conley, 31, formerly of Sauquoit, was tried twice in 2017 for second-degree murder for the July 2015 poisoning death of her employer, Whitesboro chiropractor Mary Yoder. The first trial ended in a hung jury; jurors in the second trial found her guilty of first-degree manslaughter. However, Conley then filed for the right to appeal and was granted. Conley said in her appeal motion that the attorney in the first case did not rightfully challenge the seizure and search of Conley's phone and a laptop belonging to Adam Yoder, Conley's ex-boyfriend and Mary Yoder's son, which had a backup of Conley's phone on it. The Fourth Department Appellate Division in Rochester's decision stated, 'We agree with defendant that she was denied effective assistance of counsel inasmuch as defense counsel failed to properly move to suppress the evidence obtained from her cell phone.' The Fourth Department said during the Oneida County Sheriff's Office investigation into Yoder's death, the warrant authorizing to seize Conley's cellphone had a stipulation that after the seizure, it was to be delivered to the warrant issuing court '...without unnecessary delay." Instead of returning the phone, it was delivered to a cybersecurity and forensics center. The Fourth Department ruled in Conley's favor, saying, 'Indiscriminate searches pursuant to general warrants were the immediate evils that motivated the framing and adoption of the Fourth Amendment.' Conley's conviction was vacated on Jan. 31, 2025. Sealed evidence After Conley's conviction was vacated, she appeared in court on Feb. 4 for a hearing to release her from custody, where a motion was made by the defense to seal her records. When records are sealed in this way, they can't be used in future court cases. However, the Oneida County District Attorney's Office didn't object. 'Despite being aware, prior to appearing on Feb. 4, 2025, that Attorney Melissa Swartz was requesting sealing language pursuant to CPL 160.10, the People never offered any objection to the Court adding such language to its order, even when specifically asked about the proposed order," Judge Clark said in her decision on whether or not to unseal the motion. On May 28, the Oneida County Sheriff's Office filed, on behalf of the Oneida County District Attorney's Office, an application to unseal the records from the case. The reasoning stated was the records were needed to assist the sheriff's office in its '...extensive ongoing investigation into the death of Mary Yoder.' On June 12, the decision to unseal Conley's records was denied due to there being no ongoing investigation and no investigator assigned to investigate Mary Yoder's death, according to Oneida County Supreme Court documents. 'Lt. Richard Paul's testimony that there is no current investigator of the OCSO assigned to investigator Mary Yoder's death confirms the absence of any new or ongoing investigatory developments in this case,' Judge Clark wrote in the decision. 'As Lt. Richard Paul has made clear, all he meant by an investigation ongoing is that the case is being presented to the grand jury.' The DA's motion On June 25, Oneida County District Attorney Todd Carville, filed a motion for Judge Clark to recuse herself. He cites the general disposition of Clark during opening arguments. Carville's motion reads, in part: "During the People's argument, the court interjected frequently and became loud in her responses. At times, the town appeared hostile towards the people.' He also said the people had no opportunity to file an objection to the sealing of evidence, with '...the requisite five days notice as they were put on notice the day the order was executed.' Carville goes on, stating the order to seal imposed by the court, was in direct conflict with itself as the people had been granted the ability to re-present to the grand jury. 'In doing so, this court cannot suggest that it was in the interest of justice to seal evidence in this case unless the court's inclination was to render the People's opportunity to re-present futile,' he wrote. Additionally, Carville's motion to recuse Judge Clark cites comments made in Dec. 2025 by Clark that he says indicate a bias and violate judicial law. Former Oneida County District Attorney Scott McNamara said in a deposition that while at a holiday party at the Oneida Indian Nation, Judge Clark expressed her opinions on the case in a way he felt was biased. 'I expressed my opinion of her guilt and Judge Clark expressed her opinion of her innocence,' McNamara writes. 'Judge Clark was making comments that lead me to believe that she felt Conley was wrongly convicted, as she stated that Mary Yoder's husband was the person responsible for Mary's death.' McNamara added in his deposition that he doesn't know who started the conversation about Conley's innocence or guilt. Carville's motion for Judge Clark's recusal is set to go before the court on Aug. 7 at 11 a.m. in Oneida County Supreme Court.
