 Ex-Olympian accused of ordering murder of witness in drug trafficking case Federal prosecutors have announced a sweeping new set of charges against former Canadian Olympic snowboarder Ryan Wedding, accusing him of directing the murder of a witness who was preparing to testify against him in an international drug trafficking case. According to officials, Wedding, 44, is believed to be the central figure behind a massive narcotics network that has operated for more than a decade, moving staggering amounts of cocaine from Mexico into the United States and Canada. Authorities allege he worked closely with the Sinaloa Cartel and oversaw the importation of roughly six metric tons of cocaine each year into the Los Angeles area before it was shipped onward in long-haul trucks. He had already faced earlier federal charges—including running a continuing criminal enterprise, multiple drug offenses, and murder tied to that enterprise—when investigators say he escalated his efforts to evade pr...

 Epstein files bill includes exceptions that may alter what is released and when WASHINGTON - Even though Congress has overwhelmingly approved a bill requiring the Justice Department to release its files on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, significant questions remain about when—or if—the public will see the documents and how complete they will be, even if President Donald Trump signs the legislation into law. Attorney General Pam Bondi said Wednesday that the department has already provided more than 33,000 Epstein-related documents to Congress and pledged to continue “maximum transparency” while following the law. Speaking at an unrelated press conference with FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, Bondi emphasized that the Justice Department will comply with legal requirements while protecting victims’ privacy. The bill allows several exceptions that could delay or limit what is made public. It requires the department to release all unclassified...
