SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KGTV) -- California will have the highest gas tax in the nation after an upcoming increase beginning July 1, according to figures by the Tax Foundation. Beginning July 1, California’s gas tax will increase by nearly six cents. Currently, the tax is 55.2 cents per gallon. When the additional tax kicks in, that figure will jump to more than 60 cents in taxes per gallon. Currently, the highest gas tax in the nation is in Pennsylvania at 58.7 cents. RELATED: Newsom proposes plan to withhold gas tax funds from cities that don't meet housing requirementsSB1 was signed into law by then Governor Jerry Brown in 2017 and increased the gas tax by 12 cents per gallon and registration fees by as much as 5.In November of 2018, an effort to repeal the gas tax increase, Proposition 6, failed to pass in a statewide vote."The test of American strength is whether we defeat this stupid repeal measure which is nothing more than a Republican stunt to get a few of their losers returned to Congress," Brown said of the repeal effort at a 2018 event.Those who support the taxes say they're estimated to generate billion over a decade. 1160
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah - Misinformation comes in many forms, but some can be harder to spot than others.Whether it's sharing a video clip or picture that doesn't tell the whole story, re-posting an article from a non-credible source, or commenting on a social media thread without reading the original post, chances are, most of us have been guilty of doing this at some point.Now, social media companies and the FBI are taking steps to prevent the spread of misinformation like this, especially when it comes to subjects like elections and COVID-19."We established a relationship with social media companies and other technology companies and maintain an open channel and ongoing dialogue with them to share threat information," said Casey Harrington, a supervisory special agent at the FBI's Salt Lake City Division.Here are a few tools that social media sites are making available to help you identify and prevent the spread of misinformation.Twitter is testing a prompt that comes up when you try to retweet an article that you haven't opened before.It will ask you if you would like to open it first.So far, they say they've found that people open articles 40 percent more often after seeing the prompt, and some people have chosen not to share it after opening the article."Make sure you’re getting your news from trustworthy sources, know the origin of your information, and seek out multiple sources so you’re making an informed judgment," said Harrington.Facebook is also doing its part by:Limiting the number of times you can forward a messageTelling you how old an article isSharing where the information is coming fromProviding links to trusted sources when information reviewed by fact-checkers is is found to be falseInstagram, which is now owned by Facebook, will also flag false information and provide an explanation as to why it's not accurate."They ultimately make the decision on the content and the users on their site," Harrington said. "I think the social media companies have recognized, based on past election cycles, what our adversaries and what cybercriminals are able to do, and have taken steps to try to counter that."The difficult thing about false information is it's hard to prosecute criminally."Fake news by itself is not illegal. The FBI cannot initiate an investigation based solely on speech protected by the first amendment. If a foreign adversary or if someone tied in with a foreign intelligence service is the one creating and pushing that information, that is something that we would take action on," said Harrington.So what can you do to prevent the spread of misinformation?Ask yourself these questions before posting or sharing something on social media:Has the story been reported somewhere else?Is it from a reliable source?Has the video or photo been taken out of context?If you're not sure, then there's a chance it's fake and it could do more harm than good if you share it.If you come across something that you think is false information, you can report it to the social media platform you found it on, which stops it from spreading further.This story was first reported by Jordan Hogan at KSTU in Salt Lake City, Utah. 3178

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A 17-year-old boy who was allegedly behind the wheel during a solo-vehicle crash in Mission Valley that killed two teenage passengers and injured two others pleaded not guilty to multiple charges Thursday during an arraignment conducted at a Hillcrest hospital room.The unidentified teen was allegedly driving a 2008 BMW that veered off a freeway off-ramp and caught fire around 3:15 a.m. Saturday, killing two 15-year-old boys, according to the California Highway Patrol. Relatives and officials identified the two deceased teens as Gustavo Beltran and David Chavez.The crash occurred on the off-ramp from southbound state Route 163 to westbound Interstate 8, according to the CHP.RELATED:Second teen killed in Mission Valley crash identifiedCommunity helping family of teen killed in Mission Valley crashAt least 2 dead in fiery freeway crash in Mission ValleyDue to the driver's age, prosecutors declined to comment on what charges he's facing, his current medical condition or the conditions of the two surviving passengers. Deputy District Attorney Hung Bach told reporters outside UC San Diego Medical Center the boy will be transferred to juvenile hall upon his release from the hospital. He is due in court Feb. 26 for a readiness conference.Though prosecutors declined to discuss specifics on the circumstances behind the crash, Officer Salvador Castro of the California Highway Patrol said the driver was arrested Saturday at a hospital on suspicion of vehicular homicide and driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol.All five boys range in age from 15 to 19 and were friends, Castro said.The driver and two other teens were able to escape the burning vehicle, but two boys were trapped in the back seat, Castro said. Their bodies were found after firefighters put out the flames. 1823
SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A convicted sex offender's potential release from a state hospital and subsequent placement in Jacumba Hot Springs drew a substantial crowd to a downtown San Diego courtroom Friday, which included the inmate's victims and others opposing his placement in eastern San Diego County.Alan Earl James, 56, was convicted in 1981 and 1986 of numerous sex- related felonies involving several minor victims -- which included James' younger relatives-- and sentenced to 28 years in state prison.James, who is classified as a "sexually violent predator," was committed to Coalinga State Hospital, where he was undergoing treatment "for an indeterminate term," until he petitioned for a monitored conditional release last summer, prosecutors said.The California Department of State Hospitals have proposed to place James at 45612 Old Highway 80 in Jacumba Hot Springs, a property under the jurisdiction of the San Diego County Sheriff's Department staffed by sheriff's deputies that previously housed sexually violent predators.San Diego County Superior Court Judge Albert Harutunian -- who recommended James' integration into the conditional release program last fall based upon the evaluation of psychiatric experts -- said he understood the public's opposition to James' release, but said citizens would be better suited directing their concerns towards the legislature, which determines sentencing guidelines and penalties for offenders.Nonetheless, several speakers that included James' relatives victimized as children, spoke of their fears that James would re-offend, even if released to a supervised facility.Robert N., who now lives on the East Coast, said he flew 3,000 miles to make his voice heard regarding James' release. He said James held a butterknife to his neck and threatened to kill him if he told anyone about the abuse, which happened to him and his siblings more than 30 years ago."My biggest fear is that this time, he'll end up killing a kid," he said. "I understand that he's going to be monitored and all that, but eventually, there's going to come to a point where someone's going to turn their head or something and not be paying attention and that's where he's going to end up striking."Robert N.'s sister, who went by L.N. while speaking to the court, said James assaulted her when she was four years old, and urged Harutunian to have James placed in a facility apart from communities where children and families live."I feel he will re-offend given the opportunity," she said.Following his conviction and release for abuse committed against her and her siblings, L.N. said James assaulted another girl and was convicted again."I understand he has to be released. However, he just does not need to be in the community of San Diego. I no longer live in San Diego. However, I still have family here, family that are children, as well as adults, and will all be impacted by this. I just fear that he will hurt another child and I don't want that to ever happen again."County Supervisor Dianne Jacob, whose district includes Jacumba Hot Springs, said the rural communities of eastern San Diego County have experienced "an over-concentration" of sexually violent predator placements and have become "easy pickins" for the placement of sex offenders.According to Jacob, nine sexually violent predators have been placed in Jacumba Hot Springs, Campo and Boulevard."There are not the resources, there are not the services out there (in the East County) in order to support the ongoing treatment of sexually violent predators, yet the state has chosen to place nine of these in these communities anyway, and I believe it's wrong and enough is enough," Jacob said.Harutunian said he wanted to take time to consider the options for placement and would render a written decision on the matter at a later time.Mary Taylor, a victim of sexually violent predator Alvin Ray Quarles, also known as the "Bolder-Than-Most" rapist, said she felt the decision to release James without notifying his victims should be considered a violation of the California Victims' Bill of Rights, otherwise known as Marsy's Law.State law only requires victims be notified when hearings regarding placement are held, not for proceedings considering a potential conditional release.Quarles recently was recommended for placement into a conditional release program at a facility in Jacumba Hot Springs, but the decision to release him will be reconsidered during an evidentiary hearing tentatively slated to begin in May. 4529
