LOS ANGELES (AP) — In a tense political climate, California is taking an unusual step and warning local election officials to prepare for disruption at polling places and potential cases of voters being intimidated or blocked from casting ballots. In a memo this week, the Secretary of State's office reminded county election officials it is a felony for any person to possess a firearm at a voting location or in the immediate vicinity, unless authorized. It's also illegal to threaten anyone in an attempt to discourage them from voting. Secretary of State Alex Padilla says he expects a safe election, but local officials should be ready for any attempts to disrupt or interfere with voting. 702

LONDON (AP) — Johnny Depp has lost his high-stakes libel case against the Sun tabloid newspaper for labeling him a “wife beater.”Depp sued News Group Newspapers, publisher of The Sun, and the newspaper’s executive editor, Dan Wootton, over an April 2018 article that accused him of assaulting his then-wife and fellow actor Amber Heard.Depp has denied the allegations, but Heard insisted in court that he had abused her.In his ruling, the British judge pointed to several episodes that he said showed the actor’s ex-wife had feared for her life.Justice Andrew Nicol said Monday that the defendants had proved that what they published was “substantially true” during a high-profile trial in London over the summer that included lurid — and irreconcilable — accounts from Depp and Heard.Depp’s lawyers said they would appeal the decision. 844

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Authorities say an off-duty Los Angeles County deputy was shot early Sunday morning while he was driving and returned fire at the suspect. The sheriff's deputy's name has not been released. Officials say Sunday he was struck once in a lower extremity and is expected to survive his injuries. Authorities say the suspect remains at large and it’s not known if he was struck by gunfire before he ran away. The other two people in the deputy’s vehicle were not hurt. Additional information, such as if the deputy knew the gunman, was not immediately available. 584

LOS ANGELES (CNS) - As part of its stepped-up response to a surge in COVID-19 cases, California is tightening its requirements for face coverings, issuing revised rules that mandate everyone wear a mask at all times outside the home when within six feet of people from other households.The revised guidance issued Monday states that residents "must wear face coverings when they are outside the home," unless they are more than six feet away from other people.People who are outdoors but not close to anyone else do not have to wear a mask, but they must have one with them to put on in case they come within six feet of other people. The rules apply to anyone aged 2 or older, but exempt people with specific medical conditions and those who are hearing impaired or communicating with a hearing-impaired person.Other exemptions to the rule include:-- people in a car alone or with members of their own household-- people working alone in an office or room-- people who are "actively eating or drinking"-- workers who must wear respiratory protectionThe state has long called on residents to wear face coverings in public, particularly while in close contact with others. The new rules broaden previous guidance that provided recommendations on when people should wear masks.The state rule essentially mirrors the guidance in Los Angeles County, which says residents "should use a clean face covering anytime they will be in contact with other people who are not household members in public or private spaces." 1518

LOS ANGELES (CNS) - A Los Angeles police officer who fatally shot a developmentally disabled man and wounded his parents during a confrontation that erupted while the lawman was off-duty and shopping at a Corona Costco will not face criminal charges, Riverside County's top prosecutor said Wednesday. ``For all of us who handled this case, it's a horrific, tragic situation that occurred,'' District Attorney Mike Hestrin said during a news briefing at the D.A.'s headquarters in downtown Riverside. ``But we had to put our passions and emotions aside and marry the facts with the law. We don't pay attention to public outcries or social media rants.''According to Hestrin, evidence collected from the June 14 shooting at the Costco on North McKinley Street, where 32-year-old Kenneth French was killed, was presented to a 19-member criminal grand jury on Sept. 9. After the jury completed its inquiry, the panel voted against indicting LAPD Officer Salvador Sanchez. The jury's decision was submitted to the D.A.'s office Tuesday.Hestrin said he did not know how jurors voted. There must be at least 12 affirmative votes for an indictment. Hestrin said he will abide by the panel's decision and not independently file a criminal complaint against Sanchez.``This was a fact-driven decision,'' the D.A. said. ``I would file charges if I thought there was a problem with the process. All the evidence we had was presented to the grand jury. I respect and stand by their decision. They did a great job gathering facts. They did what they were supposed to do.''Dale Galipo, the attorney representing the dead man's parents, Russell and Paola French, has repeatedly stated his belief that the Corona Police Department and the D.A.'s office were treating Sanchez deferentially because he's a law enforcement officer, and if anyone other than an off-duty policeman had done the shooting, that person would have been charged at the outset.``I categorically deny the officer has gotten special treatment,'' Hestrin said. ``This is viewed as an officer-involved shooting. Police officers have to respond (to an attack) as if they're on duty. ... The officer believed his life was in danger. He thought he was shot and was looking around for blood, feeling the back of his head.''Hestrin said he was compelled to turn the case over to a grand jury because there were uncooperative witnesses, leaving the D.A.'s office without a complete picture of events, and he believed 19 members of the public impaneled to vet the evidence would come up with the appropriate decision.Galipo has scheduled a news conference in Corona Thursday in response to the D.A.'s and grand jury's actions. The attorney released a statement saying the outcome ``highlights the unequal treatment of police officers compared to other citizens when they shoot people.''``I am confident that we will get justice for Kenneth and his family in the federal civil rights action that will be filed in the near future,'' he said.Corona police Chief George Johnstone said the shooting has ``weighed heavily on the community'' and his sympathies were with the French family. But after his detectives conducted a 12-day investigation, they could not come up with conclusive findings, other than Sanchez believed he was ``acting in self- defense.'' The case was submitted to the D.A.'s office on June 27.Russell and Paola French, along with Galipo, spoke to the media on Aug. 26, urging the D.A.'s office to come to a decision. Russell French told reporters he ``begged (Sanchez) not to shoot,'' telling him ``our son is sick.''Galipo said the parents and son were moving away from the off-duty cop when he opened fire. According to Johnstone, Kenneth French was shot once in the shoulder and twice in the back. Paola French was shot in the back, and her husband was shot in the abdomen, resulting in the loss of a kidney.According to Galipo, the trio had been shopping for a half-hour when they stopped at a food sample booth in the store to nibble on sausages. Why Kenneth French turned physical with Sanchez, shoving him to the floor while the off-duty officer held his 18-month-old son, is unclear, Galipo acknowledged.He said the decedent was a diagnosed schizophrenic and nonverbal, with no history of aggression.Conflicting stories have emerged over the circumstances, with the officer's attorney, David Winslow, insisting his client responded appropriately.Hestrin played a security surveillance videotape from the Costco that partially captured the deadly 7:45 p.m. confrontation. The clips mainly revealed the tail-end of the encounter between French and Sanchez, with the former appearing to be the aggressor, and Sanchez falling somewhere out of frame. Russell French is clearly visible, standing in front of his son to turn him back, at which point both men are struck by gunfire and collapse to the floor of the store.Johnstone said 10 shots were fired by the off-duty lawman. According to Winslow, Sanchez was knocked down and briefly lost consciousness. When he awoke, he found his son next to him, screaming. The attorney said his client ``had no choice but to use deadly force'' in self- defense.Hestrin said there was no evidence that Sanchez ever lost consciousness. The lawman was not hospitalized, and his son was not injured. Sanchez has been placed on paid administrative leave by the LAPD, where he has been a patrolman for seven years, most recently assigned to the Southwest Division. 5468
