Wealthy student charged with killing four sorority sisters hires top lawyer
The young BMW driver accused of mowing down and killing four sorority sisters in a horrific Malibu car crash pleaded not guilty as he appeared in court with his new hot-shot defense attorney Wednesday. Fraser Bohm, 23, was arraigned on murder and vehicular manslaughter charges in connection with the October 2023 deaths of Pepperdine University students Asha Weir, Peyton Stewart, Deslyn Williams, all 21, and 20-year-old Niamh Rolston. Dressed in a dark gray suit and tie, he did not speak as his new lawyer, Alan Jackson, entered the not-guilty pleas to four counts each of charge on his behalf at a courthouse in Van Nuys, California. The hearing lasted only a few minutes, during which Judge Thomas Rubinson granted the defense's request for a postponement to September 5. Wednesday's arraignment follows a delay granted last month, when newly-hired Jackson, who represented recently-acquitted murder suspect Karen Read, requested a continuance. Outside the courtroom, Jackson explained that he plans to raise 'several issues' at the next hearing, including filing a motion to reduce Bohm's $4million bail package that was granted after his arrest in 2023. Asked when he expects Bohm's jury trial to start, the renowned lawyer told Daily Mail: 'The prosecution has a head start on us and we have a lot of work to do to catch up. So I can't see trial starting before the end of 2025.' The prominent criminal defense attorney, who replaces Bohm's original lawyer Michael Kraut, is a former LA County Assistant District Attorney who prosecuted several high-profile cases, including the murder conviction of music producer Phil Spector. Since going into private practice, he's made a name for himself as a top defense attorney. Most recently, he successfully got Karen Read acquitted of murder charges in the widely-covered trial related to the death of her Boston Police officer boyfriend John O'Keefe. All four of the young women killed in the Malibu crash were seniors at Pepperdine's Seaver College of Liberal Arts where they were members of the Alpha Phi Sorority. They were due to graduate with the class of 2024 and later were awarded their Pepperdine degrees posthumously. They died when Bohm – driving allegedly at 104mph – crashed into three parked vehicles in the parking lane next to where the girls were walking after getting out of a car on Pacific Coast Highway where the speed limit is 45mph. 'They were killed because of the driving of the defendant,' Deputy District Attorney Nathan Bartos told an April preliminary hearing where Bohm was ordered to stand trial. Bartos pointed out that data retrieved from the 'black box' in the BMW showed that the vehicle accelerated from 93mph to 104mph just two and a half seconds before the crash. 'He consciously decided to get that vehicle up to the speed of 104 miles an hour,' the prosecutor added. 'And he lost control of his vehicle….. This was not an accident.' Bohm – who lives in Malibu – has maintained that the deadly crash was an accident that happened when 'some guy' in a white car swerved into his lane, hitting his driver's side mirror, causing him to slam into the three parked cars. The deadly crash sparked outrage from Malibu residents who have for years been calling for safety improvements to this stretch of PCH between Carbon Canyon and Las Flores Canyon where 53 deaths and 92 serious injuries between 2013 and 2023 earned it the nickname 'Dead Man's Curve.' On the one-year anniversary of the girls' deaths, Malibu officials met to discuss ways to improve safety and creating a California Highway Patrol Task Force to crack down on speeders and traffic offenders on the famous coastal highway. And recently, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a new bill authorizing the installation of speed cameras on the 21-mile strip all the way through the ritzy, celebrity-filled enclave.

Trump order lowering tariffs on EU autos still days away, source says
BRUSSELS, Aug 6 (Reuters) - The European Union will likely have to wait a few more days for an executive order by U.S. President Donald Trump lowering tariffs on imports of European cars and car parts, a source familiar with the EU-U.S. negotiations said. It means U.S. consumers will continue to see tariffs of 27.5% applied to the imports of cars including German-made BMW ( opens new tab and Mercedes-Benz ( opens new tab vehicles and Swedish-made Volvos ( opens new tab, the source said, rather than the 15% rate Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen agreed in Scotland. The rate will only come down once Trump issues a legally binding executive order. White House officials did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Trump on July 31 issued an executive order setting the EU's baseline tariff at 15%, but the order did not cover goods facing so-called Section 232 investigations, including autos, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, wine and spirits and steel and aluminium. The baseline tariff comes into effect on August 7 at 12:01 a.m. EDT (0401 GMT) with an exemption for goods already in transit or warehoused until Oct. 5. The EU-U.S. framework trade agreement will be implemented in stages through White House executive orders followed by a legally non-binding joint statement, which a senior EU official on Tuesday said was at an "advanced" stage. Under the terms of the agreement, a 15% levy will be applied to EU pharmaceuticals and semiconductors, U.S. officials say. EU officials say 15% is a ceiling and that the rate could be lower pending the outcome of the Section 232 investigations. EU and U.S. officials are still negotiating a final list of products that would have either a zero-for-zero duty or a significantly lower most-favoured nation rate. The EU wants low or zero rates on spirits, wines, some chemicals and medical devices. In the interim, spirits and wines will see duties rise to 15%.

Help! I need a mile-munching saloon for £6,000
Dear Auto Express, I'm after a comfy, mile-munching saloon car , but my budget is a relatively lowly £6,000 – what do you recommend? - Geoff Tooley, By E-mail A budget of £6,000 is not a lot to spend on a used car these days, and if you want something with a bit of luxury, you're going to have to compromise somewhere. Advertisement - Article continues below Traditionally, wise money would opt for a slightly older model with lower mileage over a higher-mileage newer variant with fresher styling and more bells and whistles. However, given that the nation's keeping their cars longer than ever and the ever increasing cost to buy a new car, it's becoming harder to find those gems. It's not the end of the world, with many well looked-after cars, especially in this premium segment, taking high mileage in their stride. Given the price requirements, the options are limited so expect some higher mileage examples, which shouldn't be an issue if the cars have been properly maintained. These are the three 'executive' choices that would tempt us. Here's our expert pick for three of the best mile munching saloons you can get for under £6,000, together with links to buy them through our Find a Car service … For: Sporty chassis, powerful and efficient engines Sporty chassis, powerful and efficient engines Against: Style has moved on, practicality isn't great Skip advert Advertisement - Article continues below To find a BMW 3 Series in budget and with reasonable miles, you'll be looking at 10 to 12-year-old sixth-generation/F30 cars. Newer Mk7 models introduced from 2018 – especially from dealers – are likely to have massive miles on the clock, which will put off many buyers. Advertisement - Article continues below Nicely looked-after F30s sold privately would be our favoured option for a car of this age, and we found a good selection of 2013 318d, 320i and 320d models with attractive histories priced between £5,500 and £6,500. Owners like the F30 3 Series, which arrived in 2013 with styling that was a little more conservative than some of its contemporary BMW stablemates. It was hugely popular, but looks a little dated today. More importantly, the F30's exceptional driver appeal has not diminished over the years, and if you opt for a punchier 320i or 320d over the entry-level 318i, you'll enjoy the oomph to match the refinement of the chassis. There are plenty of more muscular options for buyers blessed with bigger budgets, but 60mpg diesel variants are within your range.

Through the Auto Express marketplace you can find a sub-80k 2013 C200 CDI within budget. Advertisement - Article continues below As with the BMW, there's a multitude of engine options for those with bigger budgets, but for most drivers, the entry-level petrol and diesel engines will be sufficiently rewarding and decently economical. Unlike the previous-generation C-Class, which some felt was a bit below par for the company, this W204 generation was a definite return to form for Mercedes. The car's quality and reliability should be excellent, and compared with the 3 Series (above), the C-Class leans towards a more comfortable and luxurious ride, without its rival's more overtly sporting feel. See our used Mercedes C-Class deals For: Luxury, style and great chassis dynamics Luxury, style and great chassis dynamics Against: Higher running costs and repair bills Jaguar's follow-up to the S-Type was a hit that didn't only look and feel good, but also drove beautifully. And while it's from a class higher than the 3 Series and E-Class, that means you're getting a bigger and more luxurious car for your cash. Skip advert Advertisement - Article continues below If you want a low mileage, you might have to look for a slightly older model to stay on budget. Also consider a diesel to keep fuel costs down. We've seen 2013 2.2d Sport XFs with under 100k miles from just under £6,000. A full service history is advisable. The Jaguar XF was introduced to rave reviews in 2008, and racked up multiple awards, including Auto Express Car of The Year. It also scored first place in the 2009 Driver Power survey, and was a regular fixture in the top five for the next five years. In 2013, the XF was facelifted with more aggressive headlights and an updated front end. Its qualities are still there to be appreciated, including a fine, high-quality cabin with its bespoke 'gentleman's club' feel, and a superlative chassis that's full of finesse and feel for appreciative drivers. Petrol variants can be a bit thirsty, but diesels are pleasantly refined once you're up and running. See our used Jaguar XF deals Did you know you can sell your car with Auto Express?
