RTD stabbing suspect had just met with parole officer, records show

Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 18:47:57 GMT

DENVER (KDVR) — New information on Vinchenzo Moscoso, the suspect in deadly stabbings on an RTD bus and at a bus stop Thursday, shows he had a lengthy criminal background. Documents obtained by FOX31 show Moscoso was currently on parole for aggravated robbery but also note other violations, including trespassing."To say that this individual should have never been out in the community is easy to say in hindsight,” FOX31 legal analyst Chris Decker said. “The problem is sorting out who we should release, when we should release them, what level of supervision, when do we decide to revoke people and send them back to prison. These are very difficult decisions." Moscoso, 29, was arrested in the killing of a woman near an RTD bus stop near Regis University. Soon after, police connected him to another deadly stabbing earlier that morning on an RTD bus.Vinchenzo Moscoso was arrested in two deadly stabbings on Sept. 14, 2023.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Rob Refsnyder hit a go-ahead two-run single in the eighth inning and the Boston Red Sox snapped a four-game losing streak with a 4-2 win over the playoff-chasing Texas Rangers, who lost their fourth in a row even after getting two All-Star players back in their lineup Monday night.Boston rallied against reliever Will Smith (2-7), who walked No. 8 batter Luis Urias and then gave up a double that snapped No. 9 batter Connor Wong’s 0-for-17 slide. Refsnyder’s one-out hit that made it 3-2 came after Rafael Devers, with 10 hits his previous 21 at-bats, was intentionally walked. Adam Duvall followed with a sac fly.Marcus Semien, the only Rangers player to start all 150 of their games, hit another leadoff homer and had an RBI single.Texas (82-68), already guaranteed its first winning record since 2016, began the day one game ahead of Seattle for the American League’s third and final wild-card spot.

Refsnyder leads Red Sox to rare late comeback over Rangers

Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 18:47:57 GMT

For too much of this season, the stars haven’t aligned for the Red Sox.When their pitching is on, their hitting is off. When their lineup is hot, it’s often because their pitching is ice cold.But on Monday night in Texas, the Red Sox managed to pitch and hit, and as a result, overcame an early deficit and snapped their four-game losing streak with a 4-2 victory over the Rangers.Kutter Crawford’s excellent night was bookended by trouble, but he was able to work his way out of both jams with minimal damage. The series opener’s starter began the bottom of the first by giving up a first-pitch leadoff home run to Marcus Semien, putting Boston in an immediate 1-0 hole. The Red Sox entered the series 26-52 when opponents score first, so the early deficit didn’t bode well for their starter or the game’s outcome.But after a one-out single in the first, the 27-year-old right-hander settled down and retired the next 14 batters en route to a quality start. In front of a crowd that include...

The statement was released after Canada expelled a top Indian diplomat Monday as it investigated what Trudeau called credible allegations that India’s government may have had links to the assassination in Canada of a Sikh activist.Trudeau said in Parliament that Canadian intelligence age...

Atlantic nations commit to environmental, economic cooperation on sidelines of UN meeting

Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 18:47:57 GMT

NEW YORK (AP) — More than 30 Atlantic countries on four continents committed Monday to bolster coordination on economic development, environmental protection, maritime issues and more, the White House said. The adoption of the Declaration on Atlantic Cooperation was completed Monday evening at a meeting hosted by U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken ahead of the start of the annual U.N. General Assembly meeting.“The Atlantic connects and sustains us like never before,” Blinken told the gathering. He noted that the Atlantic hosts the largest amount of international shipping and, through undersea cables, is a thoroughfare for data traffic than any other ocean.However, he said the Atlantic is also threatened by climate change, which has brought stronger and more devastating storms to vulnerable coastal communities and illegal fishing. “It’s the heating and cooling of the Atlantic that is driving global climate and weather patterns,” he said.The declaration includes a commitment...

Family says 14-year-old daughter discovered iPhone taped to back of toilet seat on flight to Boston

BOSTON (AP) — The family of a 14-year-old girl who allegedly discovered an iPhone taped to the back of a toilet seat on a recent flight from Charlotte, North Carolina, to Boston said they believe she was targeted by a member of the crew.During the Sept. 2 American Airlines flight 1441, the girl was told by a male member of the crew to use the first-class bathroom. The crew member entered just before 14-year-old, told her the seat was broken but not to worry about it and then re-entered the bathroom after she left, her family said in a written statement.After using the toilet, the girl realized that a largely obscured iPhone had been affixed to the back of the toilet seat, apparently to record her. She took a picture of this with her own phone before leaving the bathroom.“These events have left our daughter — and entire family — shocked and profoundly disturbed,” the family wrote in a statement.Paul Llewellyn, a lawyer representing the family, said they have not yet filed a lawsuit.L...
