WASHINGTON, D.C. — Six Russian military officers sought to use computer hacking to disrupt the French election, the Winter Olympics in South Korea and U.S. businesses.That's according to a Justice Department indictment unsealed Monday that details attacks on a broad range of political, financial and athletic targets.While announcing the charges at a press conference, Assistant Attorney General John C. Demers called the officers’ actions “the most disruptive and destructive” computer attacks ever attributed to a single group. Demers said no country has weaponized its cyber capabilities as maliciously and irresponsibly as Russia, “wantonly causing unprecedented collateral damage to pursue small tactical advantages and to satisfy fits of spite.” All the defendants are alleged intelligence officers in the Russian military agency known as the GRU. The DOJ previously charged members of the same unit, also known to cybersecurity researchers as “Sandworm Team,” for their role in Russia’s efforts to interfere in the 2016 U.S. elections. Though, the new indictment doesn't charge the officers in connection with the interference in the U.S. elections.The indictment also accuses the defendants in destructive attacks on Ukraine’s power grid. “These were the first reported destructive malware attacks against the control systems of civilian critical infrastructure,” said Demers. “These attacks turned out the lights and turned off the heat in the middle of the Eastern European winter, as the lives of hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian men, women and children went dark and cold.” From there, Demers says the conspirators’ “destructive path” widened to encompass “virtually the whole world.” The conspirators allegedly unleashed the “NotPetya” malware, which was reportedly designed to bring down entire networks in seconds and searching for remote computer connections through which to attack additional innocent victims. “The entirely foreseeable result was that the worm quickly spread globally, shutting down companies and inflicting immense financial harm,” said Demers. “This irresponsible conduct impaired the ability of companies in critical sectors, such as transportation and health, to provide services to the public–not only in Ukraine, but as far away as Western Pennsylvania."Demers says the malware led to monetary losses of nearly billion. Next, officials say the conspirators then turned their sights on the Winter Olympics. “The conspirators, feeling the embarrassment of international penalties related to Russia’s state-sponsored doping program, i.e., cheating, took it upon themselves to undermine the games,” said Demers. “Their cyber-attack combined the emotional maturity of a petulant child with the resources of a nation state.” The officers are accused of conducting spear phishing campaigns against South Korea, the host of the 2018 games, as well as the International Olympic Committee, Olympic partners, and athletes. Then, during the opening ceremony, they allegedly launched the “Olympic Destroyer” malware attack, which deleted data from thousands of computers supporting the Games, rendering them inoperable. The officers are also accused of supporting a hack-and-leak operation in the days leading up to the 2017 French elections, with attacks directed at the political party of French President Emmanuel Macron. “This indictment lays bare Russia’s use of its cyber capabilities to destabilize and interfere with the domestic political and economic systems of other countries, thus providing a cold reminder of why its proposal is nothing more than dishonest rhetoric and cynical and cheap propaganda,” said Demers. 3669

Weeks of nationwide protests against police brutality have placed a microscope on past instances of police use of force across the country — especially in the case of Elijah McClain.McClain, 23, died shortly after the Aurora (Colorado) Police Department arrested him on Aug. 24, 2019. An autopsy report says he suffered a heart attack on the way to the hospital after an officer placed him a chokehold, which has since been banned by the department.As of June 25, more than 2 million people have signed a Change.org petition calling for justice for McClain.What happenedAccording to Scripps station KMGH in Denver, McClain was walking home on Aug. 24 after purchasing iced tea at a convenience store.He was wearing a ski mask at the time. According to McClain's family, the 23-year-old was anemic and got cold easily.As McClain walked home, a bystander called 911 to report "a suspicious man wearing a ski mask and waving his arms." Police tracked McClain down. Shortly after, police say he began "resisting." Body camera footage shows officers grab McClain almost immediately after attempting to stop him.Police later told The Denver Post that "there were no allegations that McClain had done anything criminal."As police struggled to detain McClain, an officer placed him in a "carotid hold" — a maneuver designed to limit blood flow to the brain. When McClain became unresponsive, paramedics administered a shot of ketamine "due to the level of physical force applied while restraining the subject and his agitated mental state." Police insist that paramedics were the ones who chose to administer ketamine. Paramedics say the procedure is common in the area.McClain later suffered a heart attack and died six days later.AutopsyOn Nov. 10, a coroner released an autopsy report that listed McClain's death as "undetermined" — meaning they could not determine if McCain's death was an accident, a homicide or of natural causes.The report references multiple abrasions on McClains face, back and legs, and also references some hemorrhaging around his neck.Though the report notes that the levels of ketamine in McClain's body were at a "therapeutic level," examiners could not rule out that he had an unexpected reaction to the drug.The coroner ultimately determined that it was most likely McClain's "psychical exertion" that led to his death but stopped short of saying he died of natural causes.InvestigationShortly after the arrest, the officers involved in McClain's arrest were placed on leave. They've since been reinstated.On Nov. 23, the Aurora Police Department announced that the officers would not face charges."There is no evidence that any of the officers sought to cause injury or death to Mr. McClain," a letter from the 17th Judicial District Attorney's Office read. The letter went on to say that the officers' use of force was appropriate given the circumstances.At a press conference, Aurora Police released police body camera footage from the arrest, which shows officers grab McClain almost immediately after attempting to stop him. Video also shows McClain vomiting and telling him that he couldn't breathe.On June 5, the Aurora Police Department banned the use of the chokehold officers used during McClain's arrest.McClain's family has called for an independent investigation into the arrest for months. But it wasn't until June — about 10 months after McClain's death — that steps were taken to put an investigator in place.But less than 24 hours after Aurora City Manager Jim Twombly announced that Connecticut-based attorney Eric Daigle would lead the third-party investigation into McClain's death, the city severed its contract with Daigle. City Council members had raised concerns about Daigle's neutrality because, according to his website, Daigle's work includes "defending municipalities, police chiefs, and individual officers from law enforcement liability claims."City officials are still working through steps to conduct a third-party investigation into McClain's death. 4016

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration’s plan to provide every nursing home with a fast COVID-19 testing machine comes with an asterisk: The government won’t supply enough test kits to check staff and residents beyond an initial couple of rounds. A program that sounded like a game changer when it was announced last month at the White House is now prompting concerns that it could turn into another unfulfilled promise for nursing homes. Residents and staff of nursing homes account for as many as 4 in 10 coronavirus deaths. Administration officials respond that nursing homes can pay for ongoing testing from a billion federal allocation available to them. 674

WASHINGTON, D.C. – A Republican policing bill has hit a roadblock as Senate Democrats voted against it Wednesday and called it inadequate.That leaves leaving the parties to decide whether to take on the hard job of negotiating a compromise or walk away despite public outcry over the killings of Black Americans.Democrats want greater changes in police tactics and accountability. They're backed by leading civil rights groups. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says Democrats are engaging in “political nonsense.” The impasse threatens to turn the nationwide protests over the deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and others into another moment that galvanizes the nation but leaves lawmakers unable to act. Common ground is not out of reach though. A new Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll shows almost all Americans support some degree of criminal justice changes.“This is a profound moment, it is a moral moment,” said Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., a co-author of the Democrats’ proposal. “The call is for us to act.”Yet Congress, as it has so many times before when confronted with crisis — on gun control or immigration changes supported by broad segments of the population — has stalled out, for now. Lawmakers are hesitant to make moves upsetting to voters as they campaign for the fall election. And President Donald Trump, facing his own reelection, is an uneven partner with shifting positions on the types of changes he would accept from Capitol Hill.Ahead of Wednesday’s vote, Trump tweeted his support for the GOP bill. He said it would be “great for both people of color and police.” Trump tweeted, “Hope to sign it into law ASAP!”Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell acknowledged Wednesday’s vote tally may fall short. He has vowed to try again, hoping to pass legislation before a July 4 holiday recess.“This is not about them or us,” said Sen. Tim Scott, the only Black Republican in the Senate and author of the GOP bill.He said it’s about young people and others, “who are afraid to jog down the street or get in their car and drive.” During a GOP lunch Tuesday, Scott played for colleagues the racist voice mail messages he has recently received, according to a Republican granted anonymity to discuss the private meeting.The GOP’s Justice Act would create a national database of police use-of-force incidents, restrict police chokeholds and set up new training procedures and commissions to study race and law enforcement. It is not as sweeping as a Democratic proposal, which mandates many of the changes and would hold police liable to damages in lawsuits. There are similarities on some issues, lawmakers say, but also vast differences.The Democrats are lining up high-profile and wide-ranging support for their bill. Hundreds of celebrities, actors, musicians and industry leaders including Rihanna, RZA, Elon Musk and mayors from cities nationwide signed on to a support letter obtained by The Associated Press and being released Wednesday.Civil rights leaders and the Congressional Black Caucus urged a no vote on the GOP bill.Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer and top Democrats signaled they would oppose the Republican bill as “not salvageable,” as they demand negotiations on a new, bipartisan package with more extensive changes to law enforcement tactics and accountability aligned with their own Democratic bill.As talks potentially continue, Democrats are trying to force Republicans to the negotiating table to strengthen Democrats’ hand. The House is set to approve the Democrats’ bill later this week, likely Thursday. The two bills, the House and Senate versions, would ultimately need to be the same to become law.Neither bill goes as far as some activists want with calls to defund the police and shift resources to other community services.House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has indicated she is eager to enter talks with the Senate, a signal the door is not closed to compromise.But in a CBS News Radio interview Tuesday, Pelosi said Republicans need to step up with a better bill. “They were trying to get away with murder, actually — the murder of George Floyd.”The comment drew sharp rebuke and calls from Republicans for her to apologize.“We’re ready to make a law, not just make a point,” McConnell said as he opened the Senate on Tuesday. He said Americans “deserve better than a partisan stalemate.”Political risks of inaction are high, as the public wants to see policing changes after nearly a month of constant demonstrations nationwide, in cities large and small, forcing a worldwide reckoning over law enforcement and racial injustice. 4628

We're all looking forward to the return of live in-person music events. However, some artists and people behind-the-scenes don't want the industry to return to how things were before the pandemic. They want to put a new focus on making the stage more inclusive."We're now in the year 2020. I think people have had enough," said Jerome Crooks with Never Famous. Noelle Scaggs with Diversify the Stage agrees. "I've hit my wits end with being the only one. Being the only one on a stage that looks like me, reflects my skin tone."The message that things have to change is growing louder since the death of George Floyd earlier this year. "The music business can't have an effect on society until we've held ourselves accountable," said Binta Niambi Brown with the Black Music Action Coalition. "For those of us who have long desired to advance issues of equity and justice, it (Floyd's death) created this undeniable moment and we felt like we needed to seize it."Brown is a music executive who recently co-founded the Black Music Action Coalition. She says when we look at music labels and publishers, there are few people of color in senior positions. "The reality is that when we improve anything for a Black person or for Black artists, Black executives, we're improving the model for everyone," said Brown.Noelle Scaggs, with the group Fitz and the Tantrums, is focused on having better pipelines to get young minorities into the live music and touring industry through her organization Diversify the Stage. "I think it's just really about widening the net of opportunity and recruitment and really kind of being considerate of your surroundings and I think we, as artists, we do have a responsibility to participate in this work," Scaggs said.Scaggs teamed up with the tour manager behind Never Famous, Jerome Crooks, to expand a resource where touring professionals can market themselves."The promoters and the vendors they have to listen, you know, and they have to want to be better," said Crooks.Live Nation Urban created a Black Tour Directory which lists hundreds of qualified Black professionals in the music industry. The effort is getting noticed, they landed on the cover of a magazine this month."As a Black man in this industry, I just want to move forward. I want to look forward and I want to bring people under my wing and bring them up," Crooks said. Scaggs added, "I would love for an organization like Diversify the Stage to not have to exist anymore. That is really the ultimate goal."It's a start to living up to the promises of inclusivity, an issue they say we can't ignore anymore. 2617
