National Guard troops have temporarily detained civilians in LA protests, commander says

WASHINGTON (AP) — National Guard troops already have temporarily detained civilians in the Los Angeles protests over immigration raids, the commander in charge said Wednesday, but they quickly turned them over to law enforcement. Maj. Gen. Scott Sherman also said about 500 of the National Guard troops have been trained so far to accompany agents on immigration operations. Photos of Guard soldiers providing security for the agents have already been circulated by immigration officials. Sherman is commander of Task Force 51, which is overseeing the more than 4,000 Guard troops and 700 Marines who have been deployed to Los Angeles to provide security during the protests.

Defense rests case in second trial of Karen Read for Boston police officer boyfriend's death

The defense in Karen Read's second murder trial rested its case on Wednesday, arguing she was framed for the killing of her Boston police officer boyfriend. Read, 45, faces murder and other charges for the death of John O'Keefe, who was found dead in the snow in January 2022 after a night of drinking. Prosecutors have said Read intentionally struck O'Keefe with her sport utility vehicle and left him to die. Read's defense has suggested she was the victim of a wide-ranging conspiracy that included planting evidence and using her as a convenient scapegoat for her boyfriend's death. They also unsuccessfully sought a mistrial earlier in the trial. Read's first trial ended in a hung jury.
