Abandoned puppy found in Mass. euthanized, police investigate as animal cruelty
Police have been investigating an animal cruelty case in which two puppies were found abandoned in Randolph earlier this month, according to police. One of the puppies was in such bad condition that veterinarians decided to euthanize it. On the evening of Aug. 1, a passerby found two puppies abandoned along a walkway between the Martin E. Young Elementary School on Lou Courtney Drive and Barbara Road, Randolph police said in a press release. The passerby quickly notified police, and the puppies — a male and female around 11 weeks old — were immediately taken to VCA Weymouth. 'Unfortunately, shortly after arrival, it was determined that due to the extent of the condition of the male puppy, the most compassionate recourse was to provide him with a peaceful passing,' police wrote. Randolph police are now asking the public to help them identify 'the individual(s) responsible for dumping these helpless dogs,' the police department wrote. Investigators believe the suspects are likely basement breeders who live in Randolph or a neighboring community. The puppies are of mixed breed — possibly some sort of shepherd or hound mix — and have 'a distinct black tail,' police said. The female puppy is not currently up for adoption. Randolph police are asking anyone who thinks they may have seen suspicious activity in the area on or around Aug. 1 or who knows of home breeders in the area that breed similar dogs to contact them. Those with information about the case are asked to call Detective Kevin Aldred at 781-963-1212, police said. Alternatively, you can submit an anonymous tip by texting 'Randolph' to 847411 or by downloading the Randolph Police Department application onto your Apple or Android phone.

ICE To Buy Eye-Scanning Tech That Could Identify Migrants in Seconds
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) plans to use eye-scanning biometric systems, according to new documents. Procurement documents published on Wednesday show that the agency is seeking to buy access to a service called IRIS, which describes itself as a "national, web-based iris biometric network." Newsweek contacted ICE outside normal working hours for more information via email. Why It Matters President Donald Trump's administration has intensified efforts to remove undocumented migrants, in keeping with the president's hard-line mass deportation policy. The White House has maintained that anyone residing in the United States illegally is a criminal. ICE has faced intense scrutiny over its conduct, becoming a focal point in the national immigration debate. The documents reflect federal agencies' increasing reliance on sophisticated biometric systems to verify identities in the field, with the technologies offering rapid verification capabilities to support enforcement and removal operations. What To Know Newly released procurement documents showed that ICE was in the process of acquiring mobile iris-scanning devices from BI2 Technologies, a tech firm in Massachusetts. Its flagship products—the Mobile Offender Recognition and Information System (MORIS) and the Inmate Identification and Recognition System (IRIS)—are intended to help ICE's Enforcement and Removal Operations unit verify the identities of individuals in custody and those encountered during enforcement actions. According to manufacturer materials, the technology allows officers to authenticate identities within seconds and access criminal justice records from multiple jurisdictions once a person is enrolled in a national biometric database. According to BI2, MORIS is compatible with iOS and Android smartphones.

Getty Images Once a subject's iris data is scanned, the technology cross-references more than 265 unique iris characteristics against central registries, such as the Sex Offender Registry, Child Project and Senior Safety Net, 404 Media reported. According to BI2, its systems can be used by law enforcement agencies across the U.S. This marks ICE's first recorded federal contract with BI2 Technologies. Previously, ICE used biometric tools such as the "Mobile Fortify" facial recognition app, which lets agents compare images and fingerprints against Department of Homeland Security databases. Another tool, EDDIE, allows officers to capture and process fingerprints in less than a minute in the field. What People Are Saying BI2 Technologies said on its website: "BI2 Technologies and the nation's sheriffs have created what no other organization in the world—public or private—have been able to accomplish: the implementation of the nation's only secure, encrypted, real-time national criminal justice data sharing network, based on iris recognition technology, which enables law enforcement agencies across the country to positively identify individuals in seconds from virtually anywhere. "The Inmate Identification and Recognition System (I.R.I.S.) positively identifies offenders using the most anatomically unique biometric—the iris. Sheriff's Offices and correctional facilities have been utilizing iris biometric recognition technology for essential responsibilities, such as arrest, inmate intake and booking, inmate release, and authentication of an individual." What Happens Next The specific timeline for deployment of ICE's new mobile iris scanning tools has not been publicly disclosed.
