Quick Glance: Legal Battle Over Texas Immigration Law Intensifies Again
  • A federal appeals court issued a ruling late on Tuesday that once more halts Texas from apprehending migrants suspected of unlawfully entering the United States, shortly after the Supreme Court implemented the stringent new immigration law.

  • Earlier in the day, a split decision by the Supreme Court granted Texas permission to enforce a statute granting law enforcement extensive authority to detain migrants believed to have illegally crossed the border while the legal conflict regarding the provision unfolds.

  • Opponents view the legislation as the most extreme effort by a state to regulate immigration since the passage of an Arizona law over a decade ago, parts of which were invalidated by the Supreme Court.

  • The dispute over the immigration statute in Texas is among several legal clashes between Texan officials and the Biden administration concerning the extent to which the state can monitor the Texas-Mexico border and deter unauthorized border crossings.

Quick Glance: Verdicts in Leicester Baby Murder Case
  • Michael Davis was convicted today for the murder of his son, after physically abusing his one-month-old child and causing 40 bone fractures, including a broken neck that led to the infant's death.

  • Paramedics were called to a residence in Upper Temple Walk, Beaumont Leys, Leicester, in October 2017, where Davis discovered the baby unconscious in the crib next to his bed. Experts identified severe injuries during the autopsy, such as brain damage and body wounds that indicated prolonged abuse rather than a single incident.

  • Kayleigh Driver, 29, the baby's mother, was also charged with murder. Today, the jury at Leicester Crown Court acquitted her of murder but found her guilty of causing or allowing the death of a child and causing serious physical harm to a child.

  • Throughout the trial, several medical experts provided testimonies. Professor David Mangham revealed that the neck injury to Ollie occurred at least four days before the baby's death, resulting in continuous bleeding. The post-mortem examination determined the broken neck as the fatal injury.
