The most important data for the U.S. economy right now are the "medical metrics" around the coronavirus pandemic, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said Sunday night in broadcast remarks where he outlined the likely need for three to six more months of government financial help for firms and families. In an interview with CBS's "60 Minutes" news program, Powell repeatedly returned to health issues as central to the success of a U.S. economic reopening, calling on Americans to "help each other through this" by adhering to social distancing rules as state and local governments begin to lift restrictions on social and economic activities. "If we are thoughtful and careful about how we reopen the economy so that people take these social distancing measures forward and try to do what we can not to have another outbreak...then the recovery can begin fairly soon," Powell said. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/3dU...

The island state, with 638 Covid-19 cases, has been cracking down on those who refuse to comply with the 14-day mandated isolation * Coronavirus – latest US updates * Coronavirus – latest global updates * See all our coronavirus coverageAn adventurous but publicity-keen New Yorker is in hot water after heading to Hawaii and finding himself under arrest when he apparently failed to follow local quarantine rules.The 23-year-old man was apprehended in the state earlier this week after he posted beach pictures on Instagram when he was supposed to be isolating himself to prevent the spread of coronavirus.He was arrested for violating Hawaii’s mandatory 14-day quarantine rule and for “unsworn falsification to authority”, the Hawaii governor’s office said in a statement.As of Friday, Hawaii reported one new case of Covid-19, bringing the statewide total to 638 cases and 17 deaths.Some tourists have been arrested for defying the quarantine, amid a crackdown by the state authorities.Tarique Pet...

French police seized the man regarded as the intellectual and financial mastermind behind the Rwandan genocide on Saturday, ending a transcontinental 26-year manhunt for “the Eichmann of Africa”. Félicien Kabuga, Africa’s most wanted fugitive, was arrested in the northern outskirts of Paris after a dawn raid on his flat in the commune of Asnières-sur-Seine. Officers said the 84 year-old had been living there under an assumed identity. French authorities released few details about the operation, beyond hailing the capture of “one of the world’s most wanted fugitives”. It is believed that a series of simultaneous raids were carried out on addresses across France, some linked to Kabuga’s children, to ensure that he did not escape. Those familiar with the investigation suggested that the operation, at least in terms of the painstaking intelligence work involved, had echoes of the Mossad mission to seize the Nazi war criminal Adolph Eichmann from Buenos Aires in 1960. The British security s...

An estimated 100,000 cruise ship crew members are currently stuck at sea amid the coronavirus pandemic, it was reported on Sunday. Two staff members are known to have taken their own lives by jumping overboard, the Miami Herald said. While passengers on the cruise ships were evacuated by April, many of the crews remain onboard ships docked around the world or anchored off the coast - some without pay. Rockford Weitz, director of the Maritime Studies Program at Tufts University’s Fletcher School, said there was “no excuse” for keeping the staff onboard, and that the cruise companies - already threatened by the virus - were risking significant reputational damage. “They have to be able to convince their customers they can find solutions and work constructively with public health authorities," he said. "There’s no excuse for not finding the way home.” from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/3cGRikj via Latest News

* George Barnhill eventually recused himself from Arbery case * Prosecutions include woman wrongfully imprisoned for murderThe local prosecutor who argued two white men were legally justified in chasing down and killing Ahmaud Arbery, an unarmed black man, has been at the center of aggressive and flawed prosecutions of at least two black women in recent years.One of the women was wrongfully imprisoned for over a decade on a murder conviction secured by later discredited forensic evidence, and another woman was unsuccessfully tried twice for helping people vote.George Barnhill, the district attorney for the Waycross judicial circuit in south-east Georgia, advised police in April that Gregory and Travis McMichael should not be charged over the death of Arbery, suggesting that the two had attempted to “stop and hold this criminal suspect” before fatally shooting him.Arbery had been jogging in the area, with numerous accounts stating there was no evidence of any burglary.Barnhill eventuall...
