F.B.I. Agents Raid South Bend Housing Authority Offices
Source: New York Times
F.B.I. agents raided the offices of the Housing Authority of South Bend, Ind., on Wednesday, the second potential distraction back home for the presidential campaign of the citys mayor, Pete Buttigieg.
No one was arrested during the raid, in which evidence collection teams visited the housing authoritys headquarters on Alonzo Watson Drive about 1 p.m. with a police officer and United States government trucks.
The agency, which runs nine low-income housing facilities in South Bend and is financed by the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development, has been beleaguered by complaints of financial mismanagement for much of the decade.
Such concerns prompted Mr. Buttigieg to replace all six commissioners on the housing authoritys board in 2015.

Court Revives Manslaughter Charge in Baby's Drug-Related Death
A divided Eighth Circuit panel reinstated an involuntary manslaughter charge Friday against a South Dakota woman whose son died hours after birth and was found to have illegal drugs in his system.
Samantha Flute, a Native American, gave birth in August 2016 to a baby boy at a hospital in Sisseton, South Dakota, after testing positive for cocaine and various prescription and over-the-counter drugs.
Four hours later, the premature baby died from combined drug toxicity as a result of the drugs Flute ingested while he was still in utero, according to the findings of a forensic pathologist.
Federal prosecutors charged Flute with one count of involuntary manslaughter committed within Indian country, claiming she killed the baby by ingesting medicines in a grossly negligent manner. She reportedly admitted that she knew ingesting the drugs could harm her baby, but said she needed to get high.

Justice Brent Kavanaugh votes with liberal SCOTUS members against Apple regarding App Store Monopoly
https://www.cnbc.com/2019/05/13/supreme-court-rules-against-apple-in-app-store-antitrust-case.htmlThe iPhone users argued that Apples 30% commission on sales through the App Store is passed along to consumers, an unfair use of monopoly power that ultimately results in inflated prices.
Apple argued that only app developers, and not users, should be able to bring such a lawsuit. But the Supreme Court, in an opinion authored by Justice Brett Kavanaugh, rejected that claim.
Apples line-drawing does not make a lot of sense, other than as a way to gerrymander Apple out of this and similar lawsuits, Kavanaugh wrote.
Shares of Apple, already battered by trade concerns, were down more than 5%, lagging the broader market.
