The FBI agreed to 40 reforms to improve the forensic reliability of its testing. FBI careerDr. Whitehurst received a Ph.D. in chemistry from Duke University, and a J.D. from Georgetown University. He joined the FBI in 1982 and served as a Supervisory Special Agent in the FBI crime lab from 1986-1998.While he was employed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation Laboratory, the FBI officially rated Dr. Whitehurst as the leading national and international expert in the science of explosives and explosives residue. Concerned about a number of issues that he observed and by the behavior of agents in the laboratory, he began to investigate their procedures. He eventually uncovered and reported what he thought were cases of scientific misconduct, alleging that the agents were biased toward the prosecution. In the OIG's report of Whitehurst's allegations, it was concluded that,"most of Whitehurst allegations were not substantiated," and that Dr. Whitehurst had, "common sense and judgement to serve as forensics examiner. The FBI crime lab finally agreed to forty major reforms, including undergoing an accreditation process.

He obtained connections to the rest of her family.[1]In July 2005, Trâm's diaries were published in Vietnamese under the title Nhật ký Đặng Thùy Trâm (Đặng Thùy Trâm's Diary), which quickly became a bestseller.

The FBI settled his whistle-blower case for over $300,000.Fred Whitehurst's revelations of F.B.I. misconduct have affected the course of many prominent cases, including the Waco Siege (he is featured in the 1999 documentary film Waco: A New Revelation (1999)) and the O.J.

Notre série de Noël autour des jouets et de ce qu'ils disent de notre époque se poursuit. Alors que la Chine domine le marché du jouet, certaines entreprises françaises s'efforcent de fabriquer localement. Mais le 100 % Made in France est-il encore possible ? Sa voix est douce, mais le ton engagé. Jérôme Duchemin, président et fondateur de Pioupiou et Merveilles, fabrique des jouets : « C'est un métier de passionnés, de personnes qui aiment les enfants ». Nous sommes au siège de son entreprise, une PME de cinq personnes située en région parisienne.Des peluches multicolores vendues jusqu'aux États-UnisFondée en 2006, l'entreprise produit d'abord pour des grands groupes avant de devenir indépendante. La femme de Jérôme crée la plupart des peluches multicolores vendues en France, mais aussi aux États-Unis, en Scandinavie, en Allemagne et en Afrique. Notre hôte ne cache pas les difficultés du marché : « On a toujours eu énormément de fabrication en Asie. Pour des raisons notamment de main-d'œuvre, de coûts. Mais aussi pour des raisons d'outils industriels. Parce qu'ils ont tout là-bas ».Le chef d'entreprise déplore la disparition presque totale du secteur en France : « La désindustrialisation a été assez violente depuis les années 1980, 1990. De fait, cela a amené beaucoup de questionnement aussi de notre côté. Puisqu'on avait toujours en tête de fabriquer proche du lieu de consommation ».Dans le ventre de l'ours GastonJérôme Duchemin qui dispose aujourd'hui de deux bureaux en Chine se souvient que l'idée de relocalisation partielle de la production est née pendant le Covid. « Les enveloppes des peluches géantes sont fabriquées en Asie. Oui, c'est la fourrure du bel ours Gaston. Cette fourrure est faite en Chine. Les enveloppes sont transportées jusqu'en France, au Havre. Elles sont envoyées à l'usine à Allonnes, en région Centre-Val de Loire. Ensuite, c'est la partie garnissage. Il s'agit de la fibre, du polyester. Chez nous, cette fibre est un peu particulière et plutôt de bonne qualité. Viennent ensuite : fermeture, contrôle, emballage individuel, mise en carton, stockage puis envoi au client », conclut avec sourire le fabricant de jouets.Le marché du jouet en France a encore besoin de l'AsieLa fabrication française pèse pour 15 % du marché du jouet dans l'Hexagone. Souvent de petite taille, ces entreprises doivent tenir compte du pouvoir d'achat de leurs clients. Dans ce contexte, fabriquer à 100 % en France, reste souvent hors de portée, estime Christophe Drevet de la Fédération française des industries Jouet Puériculture (FJP) :« Dès lors qu'on peut automatiser, il y a une véritable possibilité pour faire localement. Tout ce qui est jeux de société fonctionne très bien maintenant. Puzzle aussi. Il s'agit du travail qui se rapproche du cartonnage et de l'imprimerie. Ainsi, dès lors que vous avez des rotatives, des presses pour découper, etc., vous devenez compétitif. Dès lors qu'on est sur un travail qui nécessite beaucoup plus de main-d'œuvre ou bien encore les produits qui font appel à l'électronique, là, on a encore besoin de l'Asie. Et il va falloir du temps pour qu'une filière complète se reconstitue ».La filière doit par ailleurs lutter contre le commerce des plateformes en ligne. Non seulement elles proposent des jouets à prix cassé, mais en plus 80 % de ces objets seraient dangereux pour les enfants, selon la Fédération française du jouet.Et les clients dans tout cela ? Après un repli inédit de 5,3 % en 2023, le marché du jouet en France est reparti à la hausse. Résultat : chez Pioupiou et Merveilles, le carnet de commandes ne désemplit pas.À lire aussiTemu, le géant chinois du e-commerce dans le viseur de l'UE

DR Fred Whitehurst : FBI Whistleblower, OKC, TWA 800, OJ, Waco....moreFrederic "Fred" Whitehurst is an American chemist and attorney who served as a Supervisory Special Agent in the Federal Bureau of Investigation Laboratory from 1986 to 1998. Concerned about problems he saw among agents, he went public as a whistleblower to bring attention to procedural errors and misconduct by agents. The FBI agreed to 40 reforms to improve the forensic reliability of its testing.FBI careerDr. Whitehurst received a Ph.D. in chemistry from Duke University, and a J.D. from Georgetown University. He joined the FBI in 1982 and served as a Supervisory Special Agent in the FBI crime lab from 1986-1998.While he was employed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation Laboratory, the FBI officially rated Dr. Whitehurst as the leading national and international expert in the science of explosives and explosives residue. Concerned about a number of issues that he observed and by the behavior of agents in the laboratory, he began to investigate their procedures. He eventually uncovered and reported what he thought were cases of scientific misconduct, alleging that the agents were biased toward the prosecution. In the OIG's report of Whitehurst's allegations, it was concluded that,"most of Whitehurst allegations were not substantiated," and that Dr. Whitehurst had, "common sense and judgement to serve as forensics examiner. The FBI crime lab finally agreed to forty major reforms, including undergoing an accreditation process.

Miriam Aroni Krinsky worked as a prosecutor in Los Angeles County in the 1980s and 1990s as the War on Drugs was waged. Mandatory minimum sentences and tough-on-crime laws sent prison populations soaring and ripped apart families and communities. Krinsky believed that change was needed–and that it could come from prosecutors themselves.  In 2016, she tells the ABA Journal's Lee Rawles, there was enough of a political movement behind the idea of reform prosecutors that the nonprofit Fair and Just Prosecution was founded to help elected local prosecutors promote "a justice system grounded in fairness, equity, compassion and fiscal responsibility." Krinsky became its executive director. Over the course of two years, Krinsky interviewed 13 elected prosecutors from a variety of different backgrounds who share the dream of reforming the criminal justice system. These oral histories were then paired with portraits of those prosecutors created by formerly incarcerated artists thanks to a partnership with Mural Arts Philadelphia. It became the bookChange From Within: Reimagining the 21st-Century Prosecutor. In this episode, Krinsky discusses insights from the election cycles FJP has observed; the difficulty of producing a book like Change From Within during the COVID-19 pandemic; and some of her favorite anecdotes she learned from the prosecutors she interviewed. She also responds to critics of the concept of reform prosecutors from both the tough-on-crime advocates and abolitionists who object to the carceral system entirely. Krinsky explains how prosecutors' discretionary power can be used to avert injustice in the system, and urges young lawyers and law students to consider that career path in addition to public defense positions to battle injustice.

The criminal justice policies of the 1980s and 1990s were a total failure. Lives were ruined, prison and jail populations swelled, and budgets bloated. And yet some elected officials, including district attorneys, cling to this outdated way of thinking. Fair and Just Prosecution is a new organization dedicated to a vision of a 21st century prosecutor. In this episode, we hear from Miriam Krinsky, the executive director of FJP who was a federal prosecutor for 15 years. FJP provides support to prosecutors who believe in "a justice system grounded in fairness, equity, compassion, and fiscal responsibility." Our discussion with Ms. Krinsky comes on the heels of the launch of ACLU-PA's new website KnowYourDAinPA.org. The site provides information about the power of DAs and the responses we received to a survey we sent to all 67 county DAs in Pennsylvania. From the site, you can send a note to your DA with your thoughts about smart justice. Learn more about FJP at fairandjustprosecution.org. And follow Miriam on Twitter [at]krinskymak.

My response... Warrior,   Thanks for your email, I’m here to help you so let’s get to it and I’ll start off by answering your questions then we’ll move onto some further advice.   1. You experienced hardship when applying for the RAF & RN, with similar motivations to myself, how did you cope with this? How did you motivate yourself and stay positive?    When we are young we don’t always think that things have a result which will be equal to our actions. We think that some things we win and some we lose so, for me, I just thought that some guys get to fly military aircraft and some don’t. It was only many years later that I realised that what we do everyday has a direct result on our future. So, in short, I didn’t think about it that much. I thought that I was just a bit unlucky or that it was my poor grades that were letting me down. When I failed at AIB I just went and did what they told me to do to improve for the next time which was to do some team sports, show some leadership potential and improve my self-esteem - so I did just that. At the moment, the FJP community are talking about positivity on Facebook so find Fast Jet Performance on FB and get involved - I want to see your name in the comments of my posts, *NAME*! #inittoWINit   2. If you were in my position, what would you do?   I would make yourself so good that you cannot be ignored by the military. Basically, look at what the essence of a military Officer is. For the RAF, the ethos is Respect, Integrity, Service and Excellence. And for the Royal Navy, it is based on inclusive leadership, teamwork, morale, humility and honesty. These principles complement the core values of commitment, courage, discipline, respect for others, integrity and loyalty. (Incidentally the British Army has Courage, Discipline, Respect for Others, Integrity, Loyalty and Selfless Commitment. Note that they are all quite similar for a reason, because to be in the military you must display these principles - they are at the core of all public service. You have demonstrated some of these already with your work with the ATC and sacrificing your own time to help others with your voluntary work which is excellent of you, by the way. You need to be able to highlight areas of your life where you can demonstrate potential that encompasses these traits. All serving members of the military will have these principles at their core and they firmly believe in them as they know that this is the only way to work as a team especially when the chance of death is high. Officers, on the other hand, not only hold these principles but have to demonstrate and encourage them on a daily basis - you must do the same.   3. From an external perspective: what would you recommend doing?   OK - join my programme that I’m running called the ‘Year of the Awesome Warrior!’ where each month I will lead you through a different event that is designed to help you understand who you are and how you can improve yourself incrementally so that you embrace the traits of a military combat pilot. January is about 'Positivity', February is about ‘Lead Turning’ your day, March is about finding your ‘Sanctuary’ so that you can get some rest when needed. These are all terms used in air combat and have a true Warrior pedigree. This will improve you significantly and it’s all being taught FOR FREE by a 20 year veteran Royal Navy and Royal Air Force Fast Jet flying instructor.   Me.   Also, I would get a job as this would help your self-esteem hugely. Now, I read in your email that you have tried hard to find a job and nobody is hiring you, you mention that this might be because you can’t drive or afford lessons yet. I am thinking that your approach might be a little off here and I’m looking to recalibrate it. The email you wrote to me was lengthy - so lengthy that I haven’t republished it on the site. But when I read it, I couldn’t believe that you couldn’t find a job with the history you have. Yes, you have had a few knocks academically and I doubt you’d get onto the Goldman Sachs Graduate Programme just yet but plenty of your generation (half of them) don’t have degrees, either.   I suggest you look to intern at a company. I worked for ASDA pushing trolleys for a month with no pay when I was looking for a job and worked at a factory making women’s perfume in a poorly paid role overnight. Someone from ASDA eventually came and asked me what I was doing and I said that I really wanted a job with them as I respected the brand and was happy to work for free until I got one.    They gave me a job THE SAME DAY.   I worked for ASDA for the next 2 years on and off and went from trolleys to the deli counter and eventually packed all the produce on the meat counter. I then went and bought a small yellow Mini for £350 which was the car I drove to Dartmouth in after passing the AIB with my story about how I now played rugby for Portsmouth, was leading people in a small local charity and had improved my self-esteem through hard work and sacrifice by getting a job after pushing trolleys for free at a local supermarket.   I’m 43 and when I leave the RAF in June this year I’m going to look to intern with a professional speaker - hell, I’ll even pay them if I have to! I respect what they have and recognise that I need to learn. I’m not asking to be employed by them, I’m asking to contribute and learn.   Build your foundations slowly, forget about the get rich quick ‘get a great job in your 20s’ and just look to gain some experience. YOU ARE 90% of the way there and you have an impressive history.   So, here’s what I would do.   Offer to intern for a local company in the hope that you’ll get a job at the end - you probably will. Go to OASC as you said you are going to do and drive yourself towards a commission - start to believe in yourself! Read EVERYTHING I have ever written on FJP - it will help you. Your 6 month gap WILL NOT MATTER - I had a year gap - you just need to be able to justify it.   Let me know how you get on,   Tim Davies See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
