Police: Skeletal remains identified as missing city man
CUMBERLAND — Skeletal remains discovered March 4 in a wooded area off Independence Street were those of a city man missing for nearly two years, Cumberland Police said Tuesday. Ray Lawrence Aleshire was reported missing by his son March 9, 2023, after several weeks without contact, Chief Chuck Ternent said in a news release, adding Aleshire was homeless and stayed in the local area, but it was unusual for him to be out of contact for so long. Aleshire's remains were found by a person using a metal detector in a wooded area around the 300 block of Independence. At the time, police said the scattered bones found 'may be of human origin.' That day, detectives, crime scene technicians from Maryland State Police and a forensic investigator from the state medical examiner's office collected evidence scattered across an acre of woodland, Ternent said. Authorities found a backpack and documents with Aleshire's name during a second search over an expanded area March 11, Ternent said. A forensic anthropologist at the state medical examiner's office compared the remains to Aleshire's known medical records to make the identification. A cause of death could not be determined, Ternent said. A Go Fund Me for Aleshire's funeral costs has been established at

Signal app war plan leak broke the law, Texas expert says
The Brief Government transparency expert says "war plan" leak through app violates law Use of Signal App by Hegseth prevented creation of "classified record" HOUSTON - A Texas expert on government transparency requirements believes the leak of "war plans" by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and others may well have violated laws governing retention of government records. What they're saying Former Travis County Judge Bill Aleshire helped write Texas's Freedom of Information law. That statute mirrors in many ways Federal Open Records Law, which demands "record retention" even if the content of the communication between government officials is "highly confidential. Aleshire says that by using the Signal App, Hegseth and everyone involved in the communication made an end-run around mandated transparency. "Even in the federal government, it is important for there to be a record made, even if that record must be and is appropriately held confidential. At least, the record is there for those who have access to know what happened," said Aleshire. Dig deeper Encryption experts at the University of Houston tell FOX 26, the Signal App is nearly impossible to hack, which means government officials, at all levels, have the capacity to communicate in an unrecorded "black box", but are essentially breaking the law each time they do so. "We kind of have the worst of both worlds here - the lack of transparency by the use of that app, while on the other hand, spilling the beans to the news media in advance of an attack, exactly what was going to happen, when it was going to happen and who it was going to happen to," said Aleshire.
