Parents urge Anne Arundel County schools to complete investigation into acquitted teacher
Parents and members of the Severna Park Elementary School community are urging the Anne Arundel County school district to complete its investigation into a teacher who was acquitted of child sex abuse in June. The parents on Tuesday expressed support for the district's decision to assign the teacher to work in a location without students. Attorney Thiru Vignarajah, who is representing the parents, said they will reveal the final number of signatures they received on a petition that urged the school district not to bring the teacher back. Last week, the school district announced that the former Severna Park Elementary School teacher would be reassigned to a location with no students after he was found not guilty on 18 counts of sex offenses. The teacher underwent a five-week trial after being accused of abusing eight of his students when he worked as a third-grade teacher. "After investigations by multiple state agencies and a full public trial, he was acquitted of all charges," his attorneys said in a statement. "That verdict is not just a legal technicality-it is a formal recognition that the allegations against him are not supported by credible evidence." While the parents – some of whom had children testify during the trial – said the teacher's reassignment was an "encouraging first step," they also pointed out the school district has not completed its investigation. The parents are asking the district to complete its investigation before a school board meeting scheduled for Wednesday.

Court sends Delhi cop to jail for not paying Rs 10,000 against non-bailable warrant
A court here on Tuesday sent a sub-inspector to jail for not paying Rs 10,000 as the amount of a bailable warrant issued against him. Additional Sessions Judge Ramesh Kumar was hearing an application for the cancellation of a non-bailable warrant (NBW) issued against an investigating officer (IO), Sub-Inspector Sandeep Rawal. A bailable warrant of Rs 10,000 was issued against the IO for not being present during a POCSO case, which was at the stage of prosecution evidence. Noting that he was not present again on Tuesday, the SI was served an NBW. The judge said, 'At this stage, the applicant (Rawal) submits that today he has gone to Saket court to file a supplementary charge-sheet in a case. Hence, he requests to cancel the NBW.' The judge said that despite being served a bailable warrant, Rawal had gone to another court, and his conduct showed that 'he had no regard for the process of the court.' So there were insufficient grounds to cancel the NBW, and it could only be cancelled, subject to a payment of the bailable warrant's amount of Rs 10,000. The IO agreed to pay the amount and left the court to withdraw money from an ATM. When the court resumed at 2.50 pm, Rawal said he was not ready to pay the amount, to which the judge said, 'Despite taking time from the court to pay the amount of the bailable warrant, the applicant or IO has not paid the amount. He has wasted the precious time of the court. Hence, applicant be taken into custody and sent to judicial custody.' The court directed that a copy of the order be sent to the concerned deputy commissioner of police for 'necessary information.'

Home Depot Says to Expect ‘Modest' Price Hikes Due to Tariffs
Home Depot has announced that some of its prices will be rising because of tariff-related costs, though an executive described the increases as 'modest' and affecting only a limited number of product categories. America's largest home improvement retailer reported second-quarter results on Aug. 19, posting sales of $45.3 billion, up nearly 5 percent from a year earlier. Comparable U.S. sales rose 1.4 percent, while earnings came in at $4.6 billion, essentially flat compared to the same period last year.
