OA1243 - The lawsuit that was supposed to break up Ticketmaster and Live Nation's obvious monopoly over live music throughout the U.S. has just ended in a settlement so surprising that even DOJ's lead counsel didn't know it was happening. Is this deal as bad as it looks? What does it mean for the future of live entertainment, and what will happen if the dozens of states which joined the feds in this case don't sign off on it? Also: An insurance company sues ChatGPT for telling someone to fire their lawyer, the first (known) instance of a DOJ lawyer writing a brief with AI, and Kristi Noem's Marvel-ous new job. Finally in today's footnote--did thousands of people really just bet on the death of Ayatollah Ali Khameni? We take a closer look at the legal basis for “prediction markets” like Kalshi and Polymarket.

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Kate Klonick, Molly Roberts, and Troy Edwards to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“MisAnthropic.” On Monday, Anthropic filed a civil complaint in the Northern District of California and a petition for hearing at the Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit over the Department of Defense's designation of the frontier artificial intelligence company as a “supply chain risk.” The litigation capped off weeks of building tensions between Anthropic and Pentagon officials over the firm's two ethical red lines for the Defense Department and its use of its AI model, Claude, specifically around widespread surveillance of Americans and the use of AI and autonomous weapons. What exactly are the Pentagon's grounds for designating Anthropic as a supply chain risk, and how does Anthropic argue that doing so is inconsistent with the law? And what might the implications be for the AI industry as a whole?“The Mashhadian Candidate.” Fears that Iran would respond to the ongoing Israeli-U.S. military campaign through overseas terrorism have come to a head this week, as reports emerged that U.S. intelligence had detected an encrypted message being transmitted from Iran that may serve as “an operational trigger” for assets sitting outside of the country. What do we know about Iran's involvement in past clandestine operations, including terrorism? And what does it mean that this is all happening at a moment when the Justice Department and FBI have lost so many of their experienced national security personnel?“Maricopa-calypse Now.” Federal investigators have ramped up several inquiries that appear to be aimed at longstanding—and, thus far, unsubstantiated—allegations of fraud in the 2020 election that are particularly popular with President Trump and his closest supporters. Last month, FBI agents executed a search warrant on Fulton County's election office and confiscated ballots and voting equipment used in 2020. Last week, the FBI reportedly subpoenaed records from a conservative Arizona legislator over the state senate's audit of the 2020 election results in Maricopa County. And days later, the Department of Homeland Security's Homeland Security Investigations office (or HSI) requested records from Arizona state officials regarding their own investigations into alleged 2020 malfeasance. What should we make of these developments? And at what point should we be concerned about the federal government's engagement in these sorts of matters in advance of the upcoming 2026 midterms?This week's object lessons are all-consuming. Kate is celebrating online legal analysis by drinking from her Balkinization mug. Troy is lamenting yet another slate of firings at the FBI by drinking from his EX FED mug.

Last week, it appeared the US Department of Justice was off to a strong start in its antitrust case against Live Nation Ticketmaster. Then, this week, the two sides surprised everyone by settling. The Verge's Lauren Feiner joins the show to explain the stakes of the case, the facts of the settlement, and why things aren't entirely over just yet. Then, The Verge's Hayden Field catches us up on what's happening between Anthropic, OpenAI, and the Department of Defense. OpenAI got the contract, but it looks like Anthropic might be the real winner here. If the company's business can survive, that is.

What's funny is, I like editing. I'm not sure why I was dragging my feet around editing our book. I'd already made some major changes. The big re-structure had already happened. But somehow I couldn't bring myself to sit down and fix up some details.I finally decided I needed to buckle down, though, and instead of getting into the document, I watched a movie made in the year our book was set. It was a great movie and I thought it would get me inspired.To keep reading Preparing for Editing visit the Songs for the Struggling Artist blog.

Iran's Assembly of Experts has elected Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of the late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as the country's new supreme leader. The younger Khamenei, aged 56, was long considered a contender for the position, even before an Israeli strike killed his father, and despite never being elected or appointed to a government position. Khamenei has not been seen publicly for days, and now stands as the head of Iran's theocracy and will have final say over all matters of state. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Behnam Ben Taleblu, senior director of the Foundation of the Defense of Democracies' Iran Program, who says while Mojtaba is younger, don't expect any sort of change in a hardliner rule of the country.

The Jets finally jump into NFL free agency with a flurry of defensive signings, adding pass rushers Joseph Ossai and Kingsley Enagbare along with a reunion with veteran linebacker Demario Davis. Evan and Tiki react live as the moves come in and debate whether the Jets are paying for production that has not happened yet or betting on upside. The guys explain why these deals feel like projections rather than proven production, putting pressure on Darren Mougey and Aaron Glenn to unlock more from young pass rushers who have not fully broken out yet. They also discuss why bringing back Demario Davis adds leadership to a defense that is clearly being rebuilt from the ground up. Plus, Breece Hall sends a cryptic tweet that raises questions about his contract situation with the Jets, and Evan wonders if leaving him on the franchise tag could create a problem inside the locker room.
Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
The prosecution's motive case against Kouri Richins is built in dollars and bank statements. Forensic accountant Brooke Karrington testified that by March 2022, Kouri carried $7.5 million in debt, was hemorrhaging $80,000 monthly in payments, and owed four payday lenders $2,100 every single day. Her business account was "perpetually in the hole." December 2021 alone saw 77 overdraft transactions.One day after Eric Richins died, Kouri purchased a $2.9 million Midway mansion. Listed it seven days later. It foreclosed. The $1.35 million from Eric's life insurance policies? Gone within three months. By September 2022, she allegedly had $800 left.But the defense hasn't called a single witness yet—and they may have already established reasonable doubt.Through cross-examination, defense attorneys exposed what they argue is an outcome-driven investigation. Dr. Erik Christensen admitted tests that could have determined whether Eric was a long-term fentanyl user—urine, eye fluid, liver tissue, hair follicles—were never performed. He conceded hair follicle results would have factored into his manner-of-death determination.Carmen Lauber spent hours under cross-examination. She admitted testing positive for methamphetamine during the relevant period, changing her story after receiving immunity from three jurisdictions, and being told by a detective that "the goal is to convict Kouri for aggravated murder."Crime scene technician Chelsea Gipson acknowledged the kitchen and basement were never searched the night Eric died. The Moscow Mule copperware was never tested. An empty hydrocodone bottle in Eric's nightstand was never analyzed.Defense attorney Bob Motta analyzes whether the defense has peaked too early—or if their 35 waiting witnesses will finish what cross-examination started.Kouri Richins is presumed innocent until proven guilty.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The prosecution says Kouri Richins killed her husband for money. The forensic accountant just showed the jury exactly how much money—and how fast it disappeared.Brooke Karrington testified that by March 2022, Kouri carried $7.5 million in debt. She was paying $80,000 monthly just to service it. Four payday lenders were collecting $2,100 from her every day. Her business account was described as "perpetually in the hole." In December 2021 alone—77 overdraft transactions.One day after Eric died: $2.9 million mansion purchased. Seven days later: listed for sale. Eventually: foreclosed. The $1.35 million from Eric's life insurance? Spent within three months. By September 2022, she allegedly had $800 remaining.That's the prosecution's motive case. But the defense may have already planted reasonable doubt without calling a single witness.Tonight we're breaking down the cross-examination that exposed critical investigation gaps. Dr. Erik Christensen admitted urine, eye fluid, liver tissue, and hair follicle tests could have shown whether Eric was a long-term fentanyl user. None were performed. He conceded those results would have factored into his manner-of-death determination.Carmen Lauber—the prosecution's key drug witness—admitted under cross that she tested positive for meth during the relevant period, changed her story after receiving immunity from three jurisdictions, and was told by a detective that "the goal is to convict Kouri for aggravated murder."The kitchen was never searched the night Eric died.

The Lakers headed back to the court on Sunday afternoon as they faced off against the Knicks in a nationally televised matchup. And with no LeBron in the lineup on Sunday, it was the Lakers' defense that held the Knicks to 24% shooting from behind the arc and forced 18 turnovers. That allowed the tandem of Luka Doncic (35 points) and Austin Reaves (25 points) ample opportunity to take advantage in a 110-97 victory over NYC.

This Day in Legal History: The AmistadOn March 9, 1841, the U.S. Supreme Court decided United States v. The Amistad, ruling that a group of Africans who had seized control of the Spanish ship La Amistad were free individuals who had been illegally enslaved. The case began after the captives, led by Sengbe Pieh—often called Cinqué—revolted against the ship's crew while being transported from Cuba in 1839. They had originally been kidnapped in West Africa and sold into slavery in violation of international agreements banning the transatlantic slave trade. After the revolt, the ship was intercepted near Long Island and the Africans were taken into U.S. custody. Spanish officials demanded that the United States return both the ship and the captives to Cuba. The U.S. government supported Spain's request, arguing that the captives were property under Spanish law.Abolitionists rallied to the Africans' defense and secured legal representation for them in American courts. The case eventually reached the Supreme Court, where former President John Quincy Adams joined the legal team arguing for the captives' freedom. Adams delivered a lengthy and passionate argument emphasizing natural rights and the illegality of the slave trade that had brought the Africans to Cuba. Writing for the majority, Justice Joseph Story concluded that the captives had been unlawfully enslaved and were therefore not property. Because they were free individuals, the Court held that they had the legal right to resist their captivity and fight for their liberty. The Court ordered that the Africans be released rather than returned to Spanish authorities.The ruling was celebrated by abolitionists as an important moral and legal victory in the fight against slavery. Although it did not end slavery in the United States, the decision demonstrated that courts could recognize limits on the slave trade and acknowledge the legal claims of enslaved people.Thirteen major U.S. book publishers have filed a copyright lawsuit against Anna's Archive, a website they describe as one of the largest “shadow libraries” distributing pirated books and academic papers. The publishers—including HarperCollins, Wiley, McGraw Hill, and Cengage—filed the complaint in federal court in New York, alleging that the site hosts more than 63 million books and 95 million research papers without authorization. According to the lawsuit, Anna's Archive allows users to download these materials directly or through torrent networks, making copyrighted works widely available for free. The publishers claim the site openly presents itself as a pirate platform and intentionally violates copyright law.The complaint also alleges that Anna's Archive was created in 2022 after copying entire collections from other illegal book repositories and has continued expanding its database. The publishers say the site operates anonymously and frequently changes domain names across different countries to avoid enforcement efforts. They further claim the platform targets artificial intelligence developers by offering large datasets of books and papers. While free users can access files slowly, the complaint states that faster downloads are available to users who make donations through untraceable methods like cryptocurrency or gift cards. The publishers allege that these donations can reach roughly $200,000 for high-speed bulk access. In response, the plaintiffs are asking the court to shut down the site and award statutory damages of up to $150,000 for each infringed work.The lawsuit follows a separate case brought by Atlantic Recording Corp., which earlier obtained a preliminary injunction preventing Anna's Archive from distributing millions of music files allegedly copied from Spotify. That case resulted in a default after the site failed to respond to the complaint. However, the publishers argue that the earlier injunction does not cover books, allowing the alleged book piracy to continue. The Association of American Publishers has publicly supported the lawsuit, describing the scale of digital piracy as extremely large and urging legal action to stop the operation.Publishers Sue ‘Shadow Library' For ‘Staggering' Book Piracy - Law360Companies that operate in California are facing uncertainty as the state moves forward with major climate disclosure laws while a federal appeals court considers whether the rules should be blocked. The laws—California Senate Bills 253 and 261—require large companies doing business in the state to disclose information about greenhouse gas emissions and climate-related financial risks. In late February, the California Air Resources Board approved initial regulations explaining how the reporting system will be administered and how companies will pay implementation fees. At the same time, the Ninth Circuit has temporarily blocked enforcement of S.B. 261 and is reviewing a request from business groups to halt both laws entirely.Because of this parallel regulatory and legal process, many companies are unsure whether they should invest heavily in compliance or wait for the courts to rule. S.B. 253 applies to companies with more than $1 billion in annual revenue and requires reporting of Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions, which include direct emissions, energy-related emissions, and emissions from supply chains. S.B. 261 applies to companies with more than $500 million in revenue and requires disclosure of climate-related financial risks and mitigation strategies. Attorneys say collecting this data could be difficult, especially for companies that only have limited operations in California or that must gather information from suppliers and partners in other regions.The reporting requirements could also affect businesses outside California because companies subject to the law may need emissions data from their partners and vendors. Regulators have begun setting deadlines for initial reporting, including an August deadline for certain emissions data, but many details about how the system will function remain unresolved. Meanwhile, business groups including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce argue the laws violate the First Amendment by forcing companies to speak on controversial issues related to climate change. With rulemaking still underway and litigation ongoing, companies are left trying to prepare for possible compliance while waiting to see whether the courts ultimately uphold or invalidate the laws.Companies In Limbo Over Calif. Climate Disclosure Laws' Fate - Law360In a major California bellwether trial over claims that social media harms children's mental health, the plaintiff has finished presenting her case against Instagram and YouTube. The plaintiff, a 20-year-old referred to as Kaley G.M. to protect her identity, alleges that features on the platforms contributed to anxiety, depression, and body dysmorphia she experienced as a minor. Her attorney, Mark Lanier, chose not to call Kaley's mother to testify live, instead presenting a brief portion of her deposition to the jury. The decision appeared partly influenced by strict time limits imposed by the judge during the trial. In the deposition testimony, the mother acknowledged she had little knowledge of her daughter's social media use and did not monitor her phone because she viewed it similarly to a household landline.Defense attorneys have argued that Kaley's mental health problems were caused by difficulties at home rather than the platforms themselves. Evidence introduced at trial suggested the plaintiff had conflicts with her mother, including allegations of neglect, verbal abuse, and limited supervision of internet use. The defense also pointed to bullying and other personal issues as alternative explanations for the plaintiff's struggles. Meanwhile, a former Meta employee testified that internal company information suggested Instagram could be addictive and harmful to young users, although defense lawyers challenged his credibility and the extent of his involvement with safety issues.The plaintiff's final expert witness discussed ways social media companies could design safer platforms for children. After the plaintiff rested, Meta began presenting its defense with testimony from school administrators connected to the plaintiff. The case is the first bellwether trial among thousands of similar lawsuits consolidated in California, with outcomes potentially shaping settlement negotiations and future trials. TikTok and Snap previously settled with this plaintiff, but the broader litigation against social media companies continues.Meta, Google Begin Defense As Mental Harm Plaintiff Rests - Law360 UKThe U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agency told a federal trade court that it expects to create a system within about 45 days to process refunds for tariffs that were previously imposed under President Donald Trump and later ruled unconstitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court. The tariffs generated roughly $166 billion in payments from about 330,000 importers, and the Court's decision did not specify how those funds should be returned. As a result, government lawyers and a judge from the U.S. Court of International Trade are working to establish a practical process for issuing refunds.Under the proposed plan, importers would submit a declaration through CBP's electronic system detailing the tariffs they paid. The agency would verify the information and then issue a single payment from the Treasury Department to each importer, including interest. Officials say this approach would avoid forcing businesses to file individual lawsuits to recover their money. The judge overseeing the matter recently modified an earlier order that required immediate refunds, acknowledging that the agency needs time to build a workable system.CBP explained that its current administrative system cannot automatically process refunds on the massive scale required. Importers paid tariffs on more than 53 million shipments, and manually reviewing each transaction could require millions of hours of labor. Several large companies, including affiliates of Nintendo and CVS, have already filed lawsuits seeking repayment, though the government hopes a broader refund system will resolve claims more efficiently.Business groups such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce have supported the proposal, saying it could simplify the process for smaller companies. However, officials noted that relatively few importers have registered for the electronic refund system created earlier this year. The court continues to oversee the development of the refund process through a test case that could guide how payments are returned to all affected businesses.US customs agency expects tariff refund system to be ready in 45 days | Reuters This is a public episode.

This is our Week in Review of the Kouri Richins murder trial—and one fact may matter more than everything else the jury has heard.Four years after Eric Richins died with fentanyl in his system, the state's own former Chief Medical Examiner still lists his manner of death as "undetermined." Not homicide. The prosecution is asking a jury to convict Kouri Richins of murder when their own medical expert won't call it one.The problems don't stop there. Carmen Lauber, the housekeeper who testified she bought fentanyl for Kouri four times, was using methamphetamine during the relevant period. She received immunity from three jurisdictions before taking the stand. Her supplier Robert Crozier originally told detectives he sold fentanyl—then testified under oath that he only sold oxycodone because "everybody was scared of fentanyl." When your two key witnesses can't agree on what the drugs were, the case has a credibility crisis.Former FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke assesses what's actually happening in that courtroom. After 21 years with the Bureau, including running the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, Dreeke separates truth from performance. He reads Lauber's testimony, Crozier's contradiction, and Kouri's composure through five days of prosecution evidence.Defense attorney Bob Motta identifies what the prosecution still hasn't proven: what drugs Carmen actually obtained, how fentanyl got into Eric, and whether Kouri administered it. He analyzes the nine-minute phone call to the medical examiner's office—consciousness of guilt or a widow seeking answers? And he flags the Seroquel in Eric's system that neither side is emphasizing.The state has established fentanyl in Eric's system, Kouri's financial problems, and her boyfriend. But establishing motive isn't the same as proving murder.Kouri Richins is presumed innocent until proven guilty.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This is our Week in Review of the Kouri Richins murder trial—and the prosecution's key witnesses are telling different stories under oath.Carmen Lauber testified she bought fentanyl for Kouri Richins four times before Eric died. Robert Crozier—the man who allegedly supplied those drugs to Lauber—took the stand and said something different. He testified he only sold oxycodone, not fentanyl, because "everybody was scared of fentanyl" at the time. He claimed he was "detoxing and out of it" during his original statement to detectives. Lauber herself admitted confusion under cross-examination.When your two central witnesses can't agree on what the drugs actually were, the prosecution has a problem.Former FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke spent 21 years with the Bureau, including time as Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. His career was built on reading people in high-stakes environments—separating truth from performance, assessing credibility under pressure. He examines what behavioral signals reveal whether a witness with credibility wounds is still telling core truth versus constructing a self-serving narrative. He also reads Kouri's sustained composure through five days of devastating testimony.Defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down whether the prosecution can recover. The state played a recording of Kouri calling the medical examiner's office asking detailed questions about substances found in Eric's body. But Bob analyzes whether that shows consciousness of guilt—or exactly what you'd expect from a widow trying to understand her husband's death.The most significant fact the jury has heard: the state's own former Chief Medical Examiner still lists Eric's manner of death as "undetermined." Not homicide. Four years later.Over twenty witnesses called. Fentanyl in Eric's system established. Financial problems documented. Boyfriend confirmed. But the prosecution still hasn't proven how fentanyl got into Eric or that Kouri administered it.Kouri Richins is presumed innocent until proven guilty.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
