Ex-Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Is Mentally Fit for Sex Trafficking Trial, Judge Says

Published by Sam Flores

U.S. District Court Judge Nusrat Choudhury, in her Thursday decision, concluded that Michael Jeffries “clearly possesses a rational and factual understanding of the proceedings” and is a “reasonably intelligent person and skilled communicator” following his stay at a federal prison hospital in Butner, North Carolina. The federal judge on Long Island, New York, said she reviewed testimony and written reports from medical experts and listened to hours of phone calls Jeffries made to his romantic partner, lawyers and others while in custody. “His presentation and responses in evaluations following his commitment to Butner and his phone calls show that he understands the structure of the criminal legal system, courtroom procedures, the functions of the various participants, the nature and purpose of the proceedings, and key legal concepts,” Choudhury wrote. Jeffries’ lawyer declined to comment. “We do not comment on the Judge’s rulings,” Brian Bieber wrote in an email. “The case, and all related issues, will be tried inside the courtroom – not in the media.” Jeffries, 82, is currently free on bond. He’s slated to …

Published by skeptic

Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman noted on X (Twitter) today that Otterbox is already selling iPhone 18 Pro cases at Best Buy. While the timing is early for a new iPhone that isn’t expected to launch until mid-September, what’s more interesting is that Otterbox’s packaging indicates the iPhone 18 Pro will fit iPhone 17 Pro cases and vice versa. Gurman passed on the packaging detail without saying whether he agrees with the implied sizing, and rumors suggest the iPhone 18 Pro lineup will largely retain the same design as the iPhone 17 Pro models. However, at least two leakers have claimed that the iPhone 18 Pro Max could be thicker and heavier than its predecessor, owing to its larger battery. Popular Stories Apple Shelved Two Mac Pro Models, Including an Intel-Based One Apple developed two Mac Pro models in recent years that never made it to market, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.

If you’re as bored as I am by constantly being told strength training is crucial for our fitness levels, listen up. While I know weightlifting is important for maintaining muscle mass, and the more muscle we have, the more calories we burn – and I promise strength training is part of my workout routine – I recently learned about another element of fitness which plays a big part in how healthy we are, and the knowledge came courtesy of Shakira’s personal trainer, Anna Kaiser. Shakira’s secret to fitness It’s no secret that Shakira is impossibly fit.
