Johnson is scheduled to be executed Thursday, Jan. 14, 2021, at the federal prison in Terre Haute.

I’m OK.”Seconds later, he said softly while gazing intently at same room, “Love you.”After the execution, his lawyers released Johnson's last statement. Johnson’s execution and Friday’s scheduled execution of Dustin Higgs are the last before next week’s inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden, who opposes the federal death penalty and has signaled he’ll end its use.

'Big Sky' producers recognize Native American criticism

Read full article: 'Big Sky' producers recognize Native American criticism

Native American tribes and coalitions are condemning Big Sky, a Montana-set ABC drama, for ignoring the history of violence inflicted on Indigenous women and instead making whites the crime victims. On Tuesday, the makers of “Big Sky” broke their silence. They cited “Somebody's Daughter,” a documentary detailing the murdered and missing Indigenous women and girls crisis, as it's known to those fighting the scourge. They’re not asking for ‘Big Sky’ to be taken off the air,” he said, but instead be used to inform. While Lightning said she was “a little bit shocked” when she saw a Native American tragedy mirrored in a story but without Native American characters, her years working in Los Angeles meant she wasn’t surprised.

NYC passes austere budget that cuts $1B from NYPD

Read full article: NYC passes austere budget that cuts $1B from NYPD

Critics of the deal said the billion dollar cut wasn’t a billion dollar cut at all. Council Speaker Corey Johnson said when the budget deal was announced Tuesday that it wasn't what he had hoped for, and lamented he hadn't been unable to negotiate a bigger police budget cut. De Blasio said details were being worked out, but the Education Department would train the agents. Money would go instead to education, social services in communities hit hard by the virus, and summer youth programs for over 100,000 people. Before the virus hit, de Blasio proposed a more than $95 billion spending plan for the budget year that starts Wednesday.

NYC might ban wireless companies from selling your location data

Read full article: NYC might ban wireless companies from selling your location data

In the terms of service cell phone customers have to sign (and few read), people give wireless companies the ability to collect and sell their location data. He added, "It's Big Brother Big Business, and if we don't act, it's going to get worse." Under the proposal, law enforcement agencies could still request and obtain location data legally, and so can emergency services. Federal, state or city law can still require data, and customers can still willingly provide their location data. In January, T-Mobile CEO John Legere said in a tweet that the company would end the practice of sharing location data with aggregators.
