David Koch, a billionaire businessman and philanthropist who gained fame as an influential donor to conservative and Republican causes, is dead at 79.Koch Industries sent out a statement early Friday morning confirming his death.David Koch's brother, Charles Koch, who is chairman and CEO for Koch Industries, said the following:"It is with a heavy heart that I announce the passing of my brother David. Anyone who worked with David surely experienced his giant personality and passion for life. Twenty-seven years ago, David was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer and given a grim prognosis of a few years to live. David liked to say that a combination of brilliant doctors, state-of-the-art medications and his own stubbornness kept the cancer at bay. We can all be grateful that it did, because he was able to touch so many more lives as a result."David Koch retired from the company and the Koch political operations in 2018, citing health reasons. The Koch brothers were best known -- and vilified by Democrats -- for their role in politics, and they used their vast wealth to build a sprawling array of think tanks, foundations and political groups to spread their small-government, free-market message. In some elections, the Koch network rivaled the spending and scope of the national Republican Party, and analysts view their activism as helping to have fueled the Tea Party movement.David Koch was most active in Americans for Prosperity, the grassroots arm of the Koch's sprawling network, which built a coalition of more than 3 million activists to push the agenda of the Kochs and the roughly 700 like-minded donors to help fund their public policy work.Their mission expanded to include large donations to colleges and universities as well as advocating for criminal justice reform. They also dedicated funds toward medical research and the arts.David Koch himself entered politics decades ago, waging an unsuccessful bid as the Libertarian Party's vice presidential nominee in 1980 with Ed Clark. They won just 1% of the vote.The Koch company is an industrial conglomerate that is one of the world's largest private companies, engaging in everything from oil refining to making consumer products such as Brawny paper towels. Forbes pegged David Koch's net worth at more than billion.Koch Industries has an estimated annual revenue of 0 billion and 120,000 employees. While primarily known as an oil company, it makes a wide variety of other products including Stainmaster carpet, Dixie paper cups and plates, Brawny paper towels and AngelSoft toilet paper, as well as fertilizer, asphalt and window glass.CNN Newsource contributed to this report. 2685

DENVER – Deputy U.S. Marshals say evidence shows an alleged child rapist faked his own death in Alabama and is now hiding out in Denver where his mother, brother and sister live.Jackson County Prosecutors in Pascagoula, Miss. charged Jacob Blair Scott, 42, with 14 sex charges alleging he raped a young girl. He disappeared on July 30, 2018, from Orange Beach, Ala. days before he was set to plead guilty in the case. Orange Beach is about 90 minutes from Pascagoula.Law enforcement found a dinghy floating in the ocean, a gun tied to the boat and what they describe as a suicide note listing contact information for Scott’s family.Deputy U.S. Marshal Katrina Crouse said investigators found the situation odd from the beginning. Only a very small amount of blood was found on the dinghy."Normally in situations where somebody is shot, committed suicide, you're going to have other forensic-type evidence. For example, brain matter, hair, skin, bone,” she said. “None of that was found."Investigators also found it odd that the gun was tied to the boat.“Almost like they wanted to make sure that the gun was discovered,” she said.No body was found and Crouse said it’s unusual, even in the ocean off shore, for a body to not be found. “Normally bodies will float to the surface,” Crouse said.Scott disappeared just days before he was set to plead guilty in court, she said.Scott’s mother, who lives in the Denver area, denied her son was alive when she was reached on the phone by Contact7 Investigates. She blamed the 14-year-old girl, saying the girl seduced her son.After Scott disappeared, a judge in Jackson County, Miss. issued an arrest warrant for Scott. He had been out on bond while his case moved through the legal system.He is now considered a fugitive.More questionsAs investigators looked into Scott’s disappearance, they discovered he withdrew about ,000 from his retirement account before vanishing.That strikes Deputy U.S. Marshal Crouse as odd.“If you take money out of an account, we know where that money goes. You either give it to relatives or you distribute it to friends,” she said. “No money has been located.”Sightings after the disappearanceA person who claimed to be a friend of Scott’s called the lead investigator in Jackson County, Miss. to say Scott had been spotted driving a vehicle in the county on Aug. 6, 2018.Investigators could not locate him.Then a tip came to the Mississippi Coast Crime Stoppers on Dec. 26, 2018.“The tipster stated that someone matching the description of Jacob Blair Scott was seen frequenting the Golden Spike Apartments,” Crouse said. The Golden Spike Apartments are located at West Yale Avenue and South Federal Boulevard in Denver.“The tipster stated the suspect was seen going up to the 8th floor and on the first floor,” she said.Deputy U.S. Marshals visited apartment management, who said they didn’t recognize Scott’s photo, but a worker at the apartments said he’d seen Scott smoking nearby.That’s the same story Mano Quintana told Contact7 Investigative Reporter Jace Larson at the apartment complex Wednesday.“He was in front of garbage cans smoking,” Quintana said.As he looked at Scott’s photo, he said he didn’t doubt he’d seen Scott on the property before.“Pretty darn sure. I’m really 100-percent positive it was him,” Quintana said.Reward for informationU.S. Marshals are hoping someone recognizes Scott and calls with information. 3424

Ellen Baker loves rescuing cats, but she will forever have a special place in her heart for Bella, who died recently after a night at a pet hospital.Her beloved tabby cat had died despite 24 hours of tests, lab work and antibiotics."Losing her I felt like my heart had been ripped out of my chest," Baker said.Billed thousands for treatmentThat was just the first blow. The second was the bill.Baker said she was confronted with a hefty bill the moment she and a very sick Bella arrived at the vet."I was told, 'You have to pay ,204 up front to cover anything and everything that might need to be done,'" she said.Baker, distraught, handed over her credit card. Refusing to pay would have felt like sentencing Bella to death.The next day, Bella was still sick and the hospital needed another ,000 to continue treatment."The bill in the end was actually ,346," Baker said.Why such high prices?Outrageous? Not according to the hospital's medical director.Jessica Brotherton explained to us they have millions of dollars worth of high-tech equipment, from CT scanners to chemo rooms for cancer, and surgeons who perform life-saving surgery unheard of 10 years ago.As for charging up front, she says the hospital was forced to do that after dozens of people brought their pets in for expensive care, left, and never paid the bill.Hospital founder Dr. Doug Hoffman told us "there are certain treatments costs associated with that certain level of care given them, and there is a price associated with that.""Much of the equipment we have is the same you would have in a human hospital," he said.According to Consumer Reports Magazine, the hospital's fees are not unusual. The magazine also says veterinary costs have almost doubled since 2004. An overnight stay for testing typically costs over ,000, a torn ligament repair can cost ,000 and cancer treatment for a dog or cat will cost ,000 at the very least.So how can owners make sure that when their pet eventually gets sick, they're not hit with a surprise ,000 bill?Dr. Wendy Vogel urges her customers to purchase pet insurance ranging from 0 to 0 a year."I wish everyone with a pet had insurance on their pet," Vogel said.Although the cost may seem steep, she says it prevents sticker-shock for major care."They pay 90 percent of it in many cases," Vogel said. "So, if your bill is ,000, you pay only 0 out of pocket, and that allows people to do the things they want to do but could not do without the insurance."The tech site 2516

DETROIT — Police are looking for a man caught on camera stuffing a 4-foot snake down his pants at a pet store in Rockwood, Michigan, on Wednesday, March 20.Surveillance video at the I Love My Pets store shows the man reaching into the python's cage before putting it in his pants and casually walking away.Store employees say the python had just been adopted and was getting ready to go to its new home on the same day it was stolen."The last thing we were expecting was to check the video and take a closer look and see a man putting it down the front of his pants, we were not expecting that at all," said employee Callie McElroy. "We couldn't fathom the way someone could sneak a snake that big out of a store like that."Anyone with information is asked to contact the Rockwood Police Department. 811
