SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A federal lawsuit has been filed against several puppy stores in San Diego and Riverside counties, as well as an allegedly fake Missouri-based animal rescue organization accused of taking part in an illegal puppy mill operation, adding to existing litigation claiming the stores fraudulently label their dogs as rescues.The lawsuit, filed Friday in San Diego federal court on behalf of Maryland-based nonprofit PetConnect Rescue Inc., is one of several filed recently against Utah resident David Salinas, who owns several stores in the San Diego region, including two named in the lawsuit: Broadway Puppies in Escondido and Pups & Pets in Santee.Plaintiffs' attorneys say the Salinas-owned stores obtain their puppies through the similarly named Missouri-based Pet Connect Rescue Inc., which allegedly "launders" dogs from illegal puppy mills, "falsely labeling them as `rescues."'"As nurses, doctors, grocery store and delivery workers risk their lives to provide essential services, and other businesses sacrifice by shutting down to protect public health, these illegal puppy stores continue selling purebred and designer puppies for thousands of dollars each, trucked in from Missouri, and fraudulently labeled as `rescues' so the owners can continue to profit from their illegal scheme," plaintiffs' attorney Bryan Pease alleged.In prior lawsuits, customers alleged they purchased what they were told were rescue puppies from Salinas-owned stores, only to have purchased a dog that was actually from a puppy mill. The dogs were often were riddled with illnesses -- sometimes leading to death -- due to being bred in poor conditions, according to prior litigation.A preliminary injunction was previously obtained by animal-rights organizations against National City Puppy, also owned by Salinas, which was ordered to shutter earlier this year in light of similar allegations.An evidentiary hearing had been set for this Friday in San Diego state court regarding preliminary injunctions against Broadway Puppies and Pups & Pets, but that hearing has been indefinitely postponed due to the San Diego Superior Court's coronavirus-related shutdown.In the latest complaint, the plaintiffs allege the stores have remained open for business during the coronavirus pandemic despite a statewide "stay at home" order issued by Gov. Gavin Newsom to all but essential services.While pet stores are exempt from closure due to Newsom's Thursday order, the lawsuit alleges the stores' continued operation "is putting the public at risk as well as continuing to defraud consumers into believing they are supporting `rescues' during this difficult time by buying a puppy."The complaint alleges that the stores' operation during the pandemic puts the public at increased risk of the spread of multi-drug-resistant Campylobacter infections, which the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says has been linked to puppies purchased from pet stores. 2971
SALT LAKE CITY — A Colorado photographer says he watched the infamous monolith in southeast Utah fall to the ground and says he knows exactly how and why it disappeared last weekend.The mystery monolith captured world-wide attention and intrigue after its discovery in a remote area southwest of Moab, on a 4x4 road near the Canyonlands Needles District. The silvery metallic structure has even inspired copycats to be erected on the other side of the world.How it ended up in a secret spot a half a mile off the road is still a mystery, but photographer Ross Bernards is shedding light on how it vanished-- and what the group who took it said to him as they hauled it away in pieces.Ross Bernards goes on adventures for his career."I'm an adventure and outdoor lifestyle photographer, that's what I do for a living," he said. "So, my job depends on me finding unique and cool places."The photographer, who is based in Colorado, explained that he's also a certified canyoneering guide. Bernards said he's worked with outdoor brands like Kelty, Sierra Designs, and Utah-based Ogden Made.He often finds himself in some of the most remote places in Utah, and said eastern Utah is his "happy place."When a middle-of-nowhere spot in his happy place found itself in the middle of an international monolith mystery last week, Bernards decided to check it out in person.He said he wanted to go out to the monolith before it disappeared, or before the masses found out."I wanted to go out there and try light painting with my drone," Bernards said.Just a couple of days after reading an article on the metal formation, Bernards realized the coordinates were posted online. Realizing time was of the essence, he and three friends make the several-hour trek on Friday.They arrived after dark, and Bernards explained they ended up with the monolith all to themselves.The four of them took pictures of the monolith in the moonlight. About an hour later, Bernards described what he saw after he said four other visitors walked up."Two of them stand back, two of them walk forward and walk up to the monolith and start pushing on it a little bit," he recounted. "And then one of them turns to my friends who are a little bit further up the canyon next to it-- where I was a little further back-- and said, 'Hope you got your photos.'"After that, Bernards said the two gave the monolith a couple of big pushes, and it began to lean over."That's when the rest of them came up, and all four of them pushed it over to the one side, and then pushed it back to another side," he remembered. "And it just fell straight onto the ground."Just like that, Bernards watched the monolith that captivated and mystified people across the globe, topple over."Right after it had fallen over and made a loud 'thud,' one of them said, 'This is why you don't leave trash in the desert,'" Bernards said.He explained the group began to break the monolith down into pieces to throw in a wheelbarrow."As they were loading it up and walking away, they just said, 'Leave no trace,' and left," he said.Bernards explained that he and his friends camped out overnight, and even cleaned up some of the rivets left behind from the fall of the monolith.Fast forward to the next morning-- the message from the monolith demolishers on his mind-- Bernards would find he was hardly the only person who set out to see the strange metal sculpture in person.He took pictures that show several vehicles lined up and parked on the roadway, with more driving down toward the area."You could see the road from the dust just coming up, and you could just see car-after-car coming and going," Bernards said. "I mean, we probably saw 70 or 80 different cars there."He said there were several people in each car, some with dogs wandering off-leash.Bernards talked about how he saw people walking everywhere on the land, some even hiking up the wrong canyon in search of the monolith.Not to mention, the people had swarmed an area miles up a high clearance, 4x4 road. Bernards described seeing minivans and sedans trying to navigate the road.He expressed a worry that this would lead to search and rescue calls, and place an undue burden on local authorities as well as the Bureau of Land Management."It made me understand exactly why these people did it," he said. "One of the reasons that we didn't stop them, is we all agreed with them."Bernards said he's been called out by people saying that he was part of the problem, and he said he completely understands.Bernards said that he practices the "leave no trace" principle and expressed that his job is to visit off-the-beaten-path places, responsibly.He also explained he has a lot of experience with cross-desert navigation and 4-wheel driving.Still, he said he felt guilty afterward about making the trip.After seeing the number of people who showed up, Bernards said the monolith didn't need to be out there."Leave the art to places where art should be and let mother nature have her space for art," he said.And for anyone who is buying into the conspiracy theories about how and why around the mystery metal monument and its sudden disappearance, Bernards can at least set the record straight."Aliens were not involved in any way, shape, or form in this thing. They had nothing to do with it. Nor was it some secret government project. None of that had anything to do with it" Bernards said, with a smile and chuckle. "It was clearly an art piece by someone."An art piece with a wild, whirlwind week, and now part of the desert's past.This story was originally published by Lauren Steinbrecher on KSTU in Salt Lake City. 5623

SAN DIEGO (AP) — In Washington, it's all about the wall. At the border, it's only part of the story.Border authorities are struggling with outdated facilities ill-equipped to handle the growing increase in family migrants, resulting in immigrants being released onto the streets every day. The immigration court system is so clogged that some wait years for their cases to be resolved, and lacks funding to pay for basic things like in-person translators. An increase in sick children arriving at the border is putting a strain on medical resources.But the Washington debate has focused almost exclusively on the billion in wall spending that President Donald Trump wants. Other proposals being discussed keep the rest of the Homeland Security department funding at existing levels."The wall is a tool. Unfortunately even if it's implemented across the border it isn't a solution to all the problems," said Victor M. Manjarrez, a former Border Patrol chief with more than 20 years of experience, now a professor at the University of Texas-El Paso.Trump has suggested migrants won't bother to come if he gets his way, making other immigration issues less problematic. Walls and fencing currently blankets about one-third of the border — mostly built under President George W. Bush — and the president wants to extend and fortify them. But contracting, designing and building new wall systems complete with updated technology could take years.Trump met Friday with Congressional leaders who said the president threatened the shutdown could go on for "years." Trump later said he'd considered using executive authority to get a wall built on the border."You can call it a barrier, you can call it whatever you want," Trump said a day earlier, flanked by immigration union heads. "But essentially we need protection in our country. We're going to make it good. The people of our country want it."Meanwhile, the House passed a bill Thursday evening to fund the government without the billion, with new Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi calling the wall an "immorality."The debate overlooks major bottlenecks in the immigration system as more families and children traveling alone turn themselves in to authorities to seek asylum, instead of trying to elude capture as almost everyone did just a few years ago. In many cases, the current migrants are climbing existing border fence and seeking out agents to surrender to agents.The backlog in immigration courts has more than doubled to 1.1 million cases since shortly before Trump took office, according to Syracuse University's Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse. Families and children now account for about six of 10 Border Patrol arrests, but there are only about 3,300 family detention beds and the number of unaccompanied children in government care has soared under Trump.Border crossers are stuck in short-term holding cells for days and there has been a spike in sick migrant children, including two who died in custody.In addition, the wall will do little to address the issue of visa overstays — when immigrants come to the country legally and remain here after their papers expire. Authorities say there were nearly 740,000 overstays during a recent 12-month period.And border agents continue to struggle with growing numbers children and families. Officials say they are stopping about 2,000 people a day, more than 60 percent children and families, higher than during many periods under President Barack Obama. They referred 451 cases to a medical provider from Dec. 22 to Dec. 30, more than half children.David Aguilar, the Border Patrol chief from 2004 to 2010 and a former acting Customs and Border Protection commissioner, said agencies that oversee long-term immigration custody need more funding to immediately step in after the Border Patrol makes an arrest. He says the agency is "overwhelmed" in dealing with all the children and families coming across the border now, much different from 1990s and 2000s. And any wall"The demographics and the flows that are crossing the southern border are very different from the demographics and flows when we built the original walls ... back in 2006 and 2008," he said.Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Kevin McAleenan, testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee last month, said stations were not built to manage the crush of families coming over. The wall was important, he said, but so were these other issues. He said they needed budgeting for medical care and mental health care for children in their facilities.Trump has significantly increased the number of immigration judges but, A. Ashley Tabaddor, president of the National Association of Immigration Judges, said it came without enough support staff. About a week before the shutdown, judges were told the courts ran out of money for many in-person translators and that, as a result, it would have to reach them telephonically. A hearing that might last three minutes would last 20 minutes.The shutdown is already having an impact on the immigration system. Courts were only functioning for those who were detained. Other cases will be reset for a date once funding resumes, according to the website for the courts, which are overseen by the Department of Justice.Immigration lawyers said that will only worsen the already overwhelming backlog. Immigration attorney Jeremy McKinney said he expects cases in Charlotte, North Carolina will be moved to 2020 because this year's docket is already full."The situation is a lose-lose," he said.In contrast, the funding problems have only minimally affected the U.S. government agency tasked with reviewing immigrants' applications for green cards and other benefits. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which is a fee-based agency, said its offices are open and immigrants should attend appointments as expected.___Long reported from Washington, DC.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — A judge delayed the court-martial of a Navy SEAL accused of murder on Wednesday while lawyers resolve questions over whether the government's monitoring of emails compromised his right to a fair trial.Lawyers defending Special Operations Chief Edward Gallagher want the judge in the case removed because he was aware prosecutors planted tracking software in emails sent to the defense team and a journalist in an effort to find the source of news leaks."What we believed is that the judge authorized prosecutors to spy on the defense team," attorney Tim Parlatore said after the hearing. "Now looking at things it appears that prosecutors may have lied to the judge and that he didn't authorize it and he didn't know what they were really doing."Gallagher, who was dressed in Navy whites at the hearing, was scheduled to face trial May 28 on charges he killed a wounded Islamic State prisoner under his care in 2017. He is also charged with shooting two civilians in Iraq and opening fire on crowds.Now that date is uncertain as the defense tries to learn more about the email tracking and whether it violated the attorney-client privilege and protections against illegal searches.Parlatore said leak investigation documents he was provided show the effort was done without a search warrant or proper authorization.Parlatore asked who else knew about the email tracking and Judge Capt. Aaron Rugh told the prosecution to provide a list of "anybody that put their hands on this."Dozens of Republican congressmen have championed Gallagher's cause, claiming he's an innocent war hero being unfairly prosecuted. President Donald Trump got him moved from the brig to better confinement in a military hospital with access to his lawyers and family.Gallagher has pleaded not guilty to all counts. His lawyers said he did not murder anyone and disgruntled SEALs made the accusations because they wanted to get rid of a demanding platoon leader.Gallagher's supervisor, Lt. Jacob Portier, is fighting charges of conduct unbecoming an officer for allegedly conducting Gallagher's re-enlistment ceremony next to the corpse.Parlatore said the leak investigation targeted the defense team and civilian lawyers in the case, including Portier's civilian attorney, Jeremiah J. Sullivan III and attorney Brian Ferguson, who represents SEAL witnesses in the case.Parlatore said the leak investigation had also gone so far as to conduct extensive background checks on the defense that turned up a speeding ticket Parlatore got in 2003 and the military records of all the veterans involved, including Carl Prine, a Marine Corps veteran who as the Navy Times editor and reporter has broken several stories in the case.The reports indicate they found no illegal activity by the lawyers or Prine, Parlatore said.The tracking software embedded in an unusual logo of an American flag with a bald eagle perched on the scales of justice beneath the signature of lead prosecutor Cmdr. Christopher Czaplak was discovered two weeks ago by defense lawyers. Two days later, the prosecutor acknowledged the scheme in a closed-door hearing, but refused to provide details.Rugh said the monitoring ended May 10. He asked for a letter from senior Navy officials to clarify if anyone is still under investigation for the leaks, including prosecutors.The discovery has led to criticism that the prosecution trampled on press freedoms and violated the defendants' rights to a fair trial.Capt. David Wilson, chief of staff for the Navy's Defense Service Offices, wrote a scathing memo this week saying the lack of transparency has led to mistrust by defense lawyers in whether attorney-client communications are secure on the Navy-Marine Corps Intranet. An Air Force lawyer representing Portier had his computer and phone seized for review."The Air Force is treating this malware as a cyber-intrusion on their network," Wilson said in the letter obtained by The Associated Press.He said most of the leaks have benefited the prosecution's narrative and the likely leakers were on the government side of the case or in the Naval Criminal Investigative Service."It really looks like a lot of gamesmanship to affect the outcome of the case," Parlatore told the judge.___Melley reported from Los Angeles. 4283
SALEM, Ore. – Authorities responding to a hostage situation in Oregon found three people dead from gunshot wounds in an Oregon home Monday.The Marion County Sheriff’s Office said in a press release that its deputies responded to the hostage situation at a home in Salem at about 12:30 p.m. local time.At the home, Oregon State Police says deputies were able to establish communications with the suspect, 34-year-old Jose Jesus Lopez-Tinoco, in an attempt to resolve the situation peacefully.But upon hearing gunshots inside the home, officers forced their way inside in a rescue attempt. During the rescue, police say one deputy fired an undetermined number of shots.Inside the home, police say deputies located the body of Lopez-Tinoco with what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The officers also found a deceased 24-year-old, Diari Rocio -Bustos, and the body of an 11-year-old boy. Both suffered fatal gunshot wounds.A 13-year-old boy and a 43-year-old woman were also found alive in the home. The boy was unharmed, but the woman was seriously injured and was transported to a hospital.No law enforcement officers were injured and there’s no reason to believe there is any outstanding danger to the Salem community, officials say.The 2-year deputy who fired shots during the incident, Ricky Kittelson, has been placed on administrative leave, as is protocol.The investigation into the incident is being turned over to the Oregon State Police, concurrent with state policy regarding officer-involved shootings. 1534
