Oakland man arrested after $1 million Sacramento County jewelry store smash-and-grab
Authorities announced the arrest of one man in connection with a $1 million smash-and-grab robbery that took place in Sacramento County over the July 4 holiday weekend, as they search for additional suspects. According to the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office, deputies were called to a jewelry store near Stockton Boulevard and Orange Avenue in South Sacramento around 1:15 p.m. on July 6. Deputies said at least eight suspects arrived at the store in two separate vehicles. One of the suspects pepper-sprayed a security guard as they were entering the store, while a ninth suspect held the door open. Two suspects used blunt objects to smash display cases and ransack the store. Video provided by the sheriff's office showed multiple suspects gathering large amounts of jewelry worth about $1 million. The video then shows the suspects fleeing the scene in the two vehicles, which were parked in front of the store. Multiple customers and employees were in the store at the time the robbery took place, deputies said. Following the incident, deputies were able to identify a primary suspect in the case. The suspect, identified as 30-year-old Leo Smith of Oakland, was arrested in Hayward. According to the sheriff's office, Smith had a loaded firearm in his vehicle at the time of his arrest. Jail records show Smith is being held at the Sacramento County Main Jail on charges of robbery and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Smith is scheduled to appear in court Wednesday afternoon. Deputies said they are still working to identify the other suspects in the robbery. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office at 916-874-5115 or Sacramento Valley Crime Stoppers at 916-443-4357.

Flight attendant who police say secretly recorded girls in airplane bathroom sentenced to 18.5 years
BOSTON (AP) — A flight attendant accused of taping his cellphone to the lid of an airplane toilet to secretly film young girls was sentenced to just under 20 years in prison Wednesday. Former American Airlines flight attendant Estes Carter Thompson III received a sentence of 18.5 years, followed by five years of supervised release. Boston U.S. District Court Judge Julia Kobick called his behavior 'appalling' and said child victims' 'innocence has been lost' because of his actions. Thompson was arrested and charged in January 2024 in Lynchburg, Virginia, after authorities said a 14-year-old girl on his flight discovered his secret recording setup in the lavatory. He was indicted last year on one count of attempted sexual exploitation of children and one count of possession of child sexual abuse images depicting a prepubescent minor. He apologized in court Wednesday, describing his actions as 'selfish, perverse and wrong.' Police alleged Thompson, of Charlotte, North Carolina, had recordings of four other girls between the ages of 7 and 14 using aircraft lavatories over a 9-month period. In a sentencing memorandum submitted in court, U.S. government attorneys said Thompson 'robbed five young girls of their innocence and belief in the goodness of the world and the people they would encounter in it, instead leaving them with fear, mistrust, insecurity, and sadness.' Thompson, who will serve his sentence at FMC Butner in North Carolina, intends to undergo sex offender-specific treatment, his attorneys said. A lawyer for Thompson said via email Wednesday he wouldn't be commenting.

Vikings' Jordan Addison awaits possible NFL suspension after drunken driving plea deal
Jordan Addison's off-the-field trouble, the Minnesota Vikings believe, is fully behind him. There is one more pressing matter to resolve, leaving the team and the third-year wide receiver to wait on potential punishment from the NFL as training camp unfolds. After Addison avoided a trial on a drunken driving case in California by pleading no contest to a lesser charge last week, the adjudication paved the way for the league to issue discipline. NFL policy on substances of abuse calls for a three-game suspension for a first offense of an alcohol-related violation of the law. Though Addison resolved the citation from 2024 with a "wet reckless" misdemeanor that comes with fewer penalties and does not count as a DUI conviction on his driving record, a no-contest plea bargain doesn't exclude players from league suspensions. "Everything is out of my control right now, so whatever the league has got for me, I'll be prepared with whatever decision they make," Addison said Wednesday, before the team's first full practice of training camp. Addison had to pay a fine and complete two online courses, with the expectation his probation will be shortened from 12 to six months. "Just to get it all behind me and just get on with the season," he said, when asked why he opted for the plea bargain. As for his takeaway from the legal process, which began before his rookie year with a citation in Minnesota for excessive speeding? "Just be smart," Addison said. "Make smart decisions. That's pretty much all." Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah said the team has been in contact with the NFL about the case but had no indication about when to expect a decision. "They're obviously going through their process, and we'll know as soon as they know," Adofo-Mensah said. "Obviously, when that originally happened, we knew that it was a possibility, but really you're talking about team building in general. You might not have players on the field for various reasons, and you've always got to be ready with depth, players you're excited about taking the field and taking those opportunities, and this is no different." Those players include Jalen Nailor, Tai Felton and Rondale Moore. Nailor had a breakout season in 2024, with 28 catches for 414 yards and six touchdowns after his first two years in the league were hampered by injuries. Felton was the team's third-round draft pick out of Maryland. Moore signed as a bargain free agent after missing last season with Atlanta with a torn ACL. He played his first three years in the league for Arizona. Addison's skills likely won't be replaced by any of those role players, however, should he be absent for the beginning of the season. With 133 catches for 1,786 yards and 19 touchdowns in two years, the 2023 first-round draft pick has flourished on the field as the sidekick in a dangerous duo with two-time All-Pro Justin Jefferson, who invited Addison earlier in the offseason to work out with him. "Just talking to him and letting him know that, 'Hey, you need to be more vocal,'" Jefferson said during spring practice. "He has that motivation and he's a great player as well, so people are going to listen to him as he speaks. Just trying to get him out of that shyness phase, or just being closed off and to himself, but I think he is getting better with that."
