YSL RICO trial defendant stabbed in jail | FOX 5 News
SUMMARY: Damonte Kendrick, one of the final two YSL defendants, is recovering after being stabbed in jail. His attorney reported that Kendrick is alert and expected to make a full recovery, despite needing stitches. The incident occurred during a physical altercation at the Fulton County Jail. As a jury deliberates Kendrick’s fate for alleged gang-related crimes, they have requested to review evidence, including music and surveillance videos. Kendrick’s attorney argues that the prosecution has not proven their case under the RICO Act. The jury, after a three-day deliberation, has taken a break for lunch before resuming.
YSL defendant Deamonte Kendrick was stabbed in jail on Sunday. However, he was back in court on Monday morning. The jury is still deliberating the fate of the last two defendants in the current trial.

Israel's Cabinet approves a deal for a ceasefire in Gaza and the release of dozens of hostages
SUMMARY: Israel’s Cabinet approved a ceasefire deal early Saturday for Gaza, aimed at releasing hostages and pausing the 15-month war with Hamas. The ceasefire starts Sunday, following an hours-long Cabinet meeting that extended into the Jewish Sabbath, emphasizing its importance. Under the agreement, 33 hostages, primarily women and children, will be released over six weeks, alongside over 700 Palestinian detainees. While humanitarian aid is expected to surge into Gaza, Israeli forces will withdraw from several areas. Ongoing tensions remain as questions about future negotiations and the region’s governance persist, alongside risks of political instability in Israel.

The baby names going 'extinct' in 2025, according to BabyCenter
SUMMARY: BabyCenter’s 2025 list highlights baby names at risk of going extinct, showing a significant decline in popularity. Names like “Jamie” and “Jamal” dropped the most, falling 320 and 433 spots, respectively, from the previous year. Other names for girls and boys, such as “Remy,” “Katie,” “Emery,” and “Esteban,” also saw significant decreases. Baby-naming consultant Colleen Slagen notes that trendy names often crash in popularity, advising against choosing names that rapidly rise in rankings. She highlights “Everly,” which spiked in popularity but may soon fade. More details are available at BabyCenter.com.

Augusta makes changes to debris removal, issues final pass guidance
SUMMARY: Since October 7, 2024, Augusta’s debris contractor, Ceres, has collected nearly 2.4 million cubic yards of vegetative debris and is nearing the end of the initial pass. Upcoming final pass details will identify zones for debris removal, starting next week with specific voting precincts. Residents should place debris in the right-of-way without mixing it with household waste, as mixed piles will not be collected. Smaller piles should be consolidated into larger ones, and items like stumps and root balls will be collected separately. For additional guidance, residents can visit augostaga.gov or contact Augusta 311.
