The end of a crooked and corrupt era in Mississippi is still paying long-belated dividends to wrongly convicted criminals in Mississippi. The state that has defined backwater for so many years is slowly crawling out of its self-created gutter.
Eddie Lee Howard has been freed. And it took only 26 years. Howard was convicted of murdering Georgia Kemp back in 1995. He was 38 at the time he was arrested. He is now 67. And he is being freed.
The case was built on the testimony of two supposed experts, an overworked (and underqualified) coroner (Dr. Steven Hayne) and Dr. Michael West, a self-avowed bite mark expert. In reality, state medical examiner Dr. Steven Hayne was just another cog in the conviction wheel a coroner who somehow managed to perform more than six autopsies a day.

LONDON: There is “no clear evidence” the £22 billion Test and Trace scheme contributed to a reduction in coronavirus infection levels, a cross-party group of MPs have said.
Meg Hillier, the chair of the Commons Public Accounts Committee (PAC) behind a critical report, urged the government to justify the “staggering investment of taxpayers’ money”.
The MPs said ministers had justified the vast expenditure on preventing a second national lockdown, but noted England is currently living under its third in questioning the programme’s effectiveness. They also urged the scheme led by Tory peer Dido Harding to “wean itself off” reliance on thousands of “expensive” consultants and temporary staff, with some receiving £6,624 per day. The PAC said the programme does publish a significant amount of weekly data, including some that shows full compliance with the self-isolation rules re
Sigstore is a Linux Foundation project developed by Google and Red Hat for code signing
Mar 10, 2021 00:30 EST with 0 comments
An inherent weakness of open source code is that it s difficult to determine its provenance and how it was built, which means that it s prone to supply chain attacks. Google aims to solve this problem which is why it has collaborated with Red Hat and Smallstep to introduce Sigstore (stylized sigstore ) in the Linux Foundation, making it easier to digitally sign and verify source code.
Additionally, all sigstore certifications and attestations are stored in Transparency Logs backed by Trillian, and can be viewed and audited by anyone. Google says that it understands the challenges behind long-term key management and key distribution so it will issue short-lived certificates based on OpenID Connect grants and a Root Certificate Authority (CA) for the express purpose of code signing.
