Teen, Joseph Koenig, Convicted of Murder For Dropping Boulders Off Busy Overpass Jurors in Jefferson County needed barely two hours Friday morning to convict Joseph Koenig of first-degree murder for hurling a landscaping rock through the windshield of Alexa Bartell's moving car, killing the 20-year-old as she drove near Arvada in April 2023. Deliberations began late Thursday and resumed at 9 a.m.; by 10:45, the panel had returned guilty verdicts on every one of the 19 counts Koenig faced. Koenig, now 19, stood accused not only of Bartell's murder but of unleashing a late-night rock-throwing spree that terrorized motorists across northwest metro Denver. Prosecutors charged him with nine counts of attempted first-degree murder for the other cars struck, three counts of second-degree assault, and six counts of attempted second-degree assault. While the jury found Koenig guilty on each allegation, several counts were reduced under Colorado law. Last week jurors heard from nearly two dozen witnesses, including victims who recalled the sudden shatter of glass and the panic of losing control at highway speed. The most damning testimony came from Koenig's two friends—Nicholas “Mitch” Karol-Chik and Zachary Kwak—who took plea deals and told the jury Koenig threw the fatal rock. The defense pounced on Karol-Chik's earlier statement to police suggesting Kwak hurled the final stone, but both men insisted on the stand that Koenig was responsible for Bartell's death. Koenig himself never testified. Instead, defense lawyers called Laurence Steinberg, a Temple University adolescent-brain researcher, to argue that impulsivity and Koenig's ADHD lessened his culpability. Deputy District Attorney Katharine Decker countered in a pointed cross-examination, pressing Steinberg to acknowledge that teenagers can still foresee lethal consequences. Koenig was a high school senior at the time of the incident. Originally scheduled for trial last summer, the case was postponed for a court-ordered mental-health evaluation after Koenig's attorneys cited an ADHD diagnosis and borderline personality disorder. Closing arguments Thursday distilled the stakes: prosecutors said Koenig acted “knowingly and intentionally,” while defense attorney Martin Stuart asked jurors to convict only of reckless manslaughter—calling his client “guilty of a crime, but not murder.” Evidence showed that Koenig, Karol-Chik, and Kwak circled back to the crash scene on April 19, 2023, photographing Bartell's disabled Chevy Spark instead of checking on her or dialing 911. That callous post-attack behavior, prosecutors argued, underscored Koenig's indifference to human life. After the verdict, Bartell's mother, Kelly, stood outside the courthouse clutching a framed photo of her daughter. “These have been the hardest two years of our lives, but we got justice today,” she said through tears. “It doesn't bring Alexa back, and that's horrible. But we hope no family ever has to live this nightmare again.” District Court Judge Mark Randall set Koenig's sentencing for June 3 at 8:30 a.m. Victims and relatives will be allowed to address the court before penalties are imposed; a first-degree murder conviction in Colorado carries an automatic life sentence with the possibility of parole after 40 years. Karol-Chik and Kwak, who pleaded guilty last year to lesser charges—including second-degree murder and multiple counts of attempted assault—are scheduled to learn their fates on May 1 and May 2, respectively Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Matty Dalrymple talks with Jessie Kwak about CREATING YOUR OWN COMMUNITY. Our conversation was triggered by the fact that Jessie recently hosted the first Author Alchemy Summit, and I wanted to find out what had made her decide to dive into this huge community-building undertaking. But even if organizing your own conference isn't on your bucket list, the best practices she shares are generalizable to all sorts of other big projects that might be on your wish list: testing your commitment to a major undertaking, the importance of engaging a team of helpers, the challenge of delegation, battling imposter syndrome, gathering supporters and offering them opportunities (rather than asking for favors), achieving balance with the rest of your work, the importance of avoiding task-switching, and following the flow of your energy. I also think that hearing about what is involved in being a conference organizer can help us be better (and more empathetic) conference attendees, but Jessie also offers some great practical tips for us as attendees, including how to find the conferences that best meet our goals and networking for introverts.   Interview video at https://youtu.be/nYzT1gxxK90   Show notes (including summary and transcript) at https://www.theindyauthor.com/237---creating-your-own-community.html   If you find the information in this video useful, please consider supporting The Indy Author! https://www.patreon.com/theindyauthor https://www.buymeacoffee.com/mattydalrymple   Jessie Kwak is an author and business book ghostwriter living in Portland, Oregon.

In this episode Abena Appah-Sampong (@abenasamp) and Leana Dogbe (@leanadogbe) partner with Vaiva Dabravolskaite (vaivadabravolskaite@gmail.com) from ESVS to host an episode discussing social deprivation in vascular surgery. Dr. Tara Mastracci and Dr. Olamide Alabi join us to offer insights into how social deprivation drives disparities in outcomes and steps to how we can shift practice paradigms to better address our patient needs.   Dr. Tara Mastracci (@aorticsurgeon) is a vascular surgeon with over 15 years of experience treating and managing complex aortic pathologies. She is currently working at St. Bartholomew's Hospital in London, UK, on the Cardiothoracic Team doing complex aortic surgery. On top of her clinical duties, Dr. Mastracci is dedicated to studying the social and non-clinical factors influencing vascular outcomes.    Dr. Olamide Alabi (@OAlabiMD) is an Associate Professor of Surgery in the Department of Surgery at Emory University School of Medicine. Her clinical effort focuses on the full scope of vascular disease for patients at Emory University Hospital and the Atlanta VA HealthCare System, however, her academic portfolio and funded research is focused primarily on the intersection of peripheral artery disease, quality, and health equity.    References: Social Deprivation and the Association With Survival Following Fenestrated Endovascular Aneurysm Repair/2021 https://www.annalsofvascularsurgery.com/article/S0890-5096(21)00872-4/fulltext Is social deprivation an independent predictor of outcomes following cardiac surgery?

In this episode we chat to Jan Kwak who is Managing Director of Australia and Asia at Hatch, who are a global multidisciplinary leader in engineering, operational and development company with projects in metals, energy and infrastructure across the globe. With more than three decades of experience at Hatch, Jan has cultivated a hands-on approach to the business, playing a pivotal role in its growth to its current state and is a strong advocate of inclusive cultures in engineering and the workplace. He believes that all who show passion and dedication to their vocation should have a chance to grow and thrive. We discuss the growing gender diversity in STEM industries, gender pay gap as well as emerging industry trends. What women in our industry need to do excel and what men need to do to encourage more inclusivity in the workplace. KEY TAKEAWAYS Gender diversity and inclusion in the mining industry are crucial for innovation and competitiveness. Men play a significant role in creating an inclusive culture and normalising diversity in the workplace. Women need to be confident and assertive to break through into higher positions in the industry. Industry organisations like Women in Mining provide essential support and mentorship for women in the field. The energy transition and adoption of AI in the mining industry are key areas for growth and innovation in the coming years. BEST MOMENTS "The mining industry is in a period of rapid change, and we need new ideas, new ways to serve society's needs at the highest level."  "Men need to create space and be inclusive to normalise an inclusive culture for women to succeed in the industry."  "The gender pay gap is a measurement of the lack of women in senior roles. It'll be zero when women are just as likely to be in high-paying roles as men."  "It's time to start innovating again and try new things in the mining industry to stay competitive and adapt to change."  "I really hope the circular economy becomes real and that companies start trying new, real options for energy transition in 2024."  VALUABLE RESOURCES Mail:        rob@mining-international.org LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-tyson-3a26a68/ X:              https://twitter.com/MiningRobTyson YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DigDeepTheMiningPodcast  Web:        http://www.mining-international.org https://www.hatch.com/ ABOUT THE HOST Rob Tyson is the Founder and Director of Mining International Ltd, a leading global recruitment and headhunting consultancy based in the UK specialising in all areas of mining across the globe from first-world to third-world countries from Africa, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Australia.

KERSTSPECIAL! Samen met collega-podcastmakers Ester en Eefje van donorkindpodcast De Kwak Kwaakt bundelden wij de krachten én de microfoons, voor een heuse ‘sibling season' aflevering! Speciaal voor ouders van donorkinderen die hun kind daar nog niet over hebben verteld, stelden we de vraag: hoe vertel je je kind dat het een donorkind is? We gaan alle vijf de W's en de H af: waarom zou je het vertellen, wanneer doe je dat dan, hoe pak je het aan, wat vertel je, wie betrek je erbij en waar kun je terecht voor meer hulp en advies? Met deze aflevering dragen we een steentje bij aan de landelijke campagne ‘Nu het nog kan' van Stichting Fiom, die net als wij hoopt ouders te bereiken die nog zoeken naar dat goede moment, naar de goede woorden, en die misschien wel bang zijn voor wat openheid en eerlijkheid gaan brengen. De makkelijkst te beantwoorden vraag was misschien wel: waarom zou je het je kind vertellen? Want, zoals Ester het mooi verwoordte: ‘Je wil dit gewoon echt van je ouders horen.'De unieke samen gemaakte aflevering KID: hoe vertel je het je kind? is nu te beluisteren, zowel in onze podcast als die van De Kwak Kwaakt.LinkjesEster en Eefje namen voor hun podcast De Kwak Kwaakt al 75 afleveringen op waarin zij in gesprek gaan met donorkinderen, donoren en andere betrokkenen bij donorconceptie, of zelf ontwikkelingen rondom dit thema bespreken. Kijk voor meer informatie op https://vriendvandeshow.nl/de-kwak-kwaaktStichting Donorkind vierde in 2022 de vijfde ‘Dag van het Donorkind' met het uitbrengen van de ‘Donorkinderen Bullshitbingo', met daarin de meest voorkomende gevoelloze opmerkingen of dooddoeners die donorkinderen vaak in gesprekken moeten aanhoren. Je vindt de bullshitbingo hier: https://donorkind.eu/bullshitbingo/Zoals we in deze aflevering bespreken, organiseert Stichting Fiom in februari 2024 twee verdiepende webinars onder de noemer ‘Praten met je kind over donorconceptie'.

It's Hump Day! First, Emma speaks with attorney Stephen Bright and James Kwak, law professor at the University of Connecticut, to discuss their recent book The Fear of Too Much Justice: Race, Poverty, and the Insistence of Inequality in the Criminal Courts. Then, she's joined by writer Katherine Stewart to discuss her recent piece in The New Republic entitled "The Claremont Institute: The Anti-Democracy Think Tank".  First, Emma runs through updates on tonight's GOP Presidential Debate, Trump's various legal battles, the UPS-Teamsters agreement, Hollywood's anti-labor action, child labor in the US, Ed Bloom's new anti-education lawsuit, a potential Oregon Supreme Court case on homelessness, and various geopolitical discourses, before admiring Climate Defiance's recent action in front of a Maura Healey fundraiser. Stephen Bright and James Kwak then join, first diving into Bright's history with capital punishment in the US over the last four decades, making him ever so intimate with the criminal-legal system's myriad injustices, blatant race discrimination, and severe power imbalance in favor of the prosecution, before stepping back to analyze why the conversation of the role of race and poverty in capital punishment is so centered on the southern US, despite racism, poverty, and death sentences all existing in the north as well. Next, Bright and Kwak parse through the drastic power imbalance that comes from the simultaneous hyper-politicization of the legal system through prosecutors alongside the deprioritization and underfunding of public defense, walking countless examples of prosecutorial injustice and the malpractice of certain supposed public defenders. Bright and Kwak then focus on the Supreme Court case of McCleskey v. Kemp, and the eventual decision that, despite overwhelming evidence of racist bias in the endorsement, sentencing, and execution of the death sentence, said bias cannot be used as an argument in individual cases, in “fear of too much justice, before wrapping up by walking through the compiling and countless injustices of the criminal legal system and its death penalty. Katherine Stewart then walks Emma through the greater history of the Claremont Institute, and its evolution from a standard conservative think tank to the far-right, anti-democratic, neo-confederate thought leader that it is today – playing host to multiple Trump co-conspirators. Stewart begins by tackling the basis for the institution's radicalization, including who the major players were, and the bigoted arguments they were able to put forth, from gender and race segregation to citing public Nazis as inspiration, before wrapping up with its culmination in the battle against “woke,” the right's attacks on education, and their ultimate goal of affirmative action for conservative men. And in the Fun Half: Emma tackles the renters' nightmare that is the modern-day United States, Dave from Jamaica critiques recent “male loneliness discourse,” Tim Pool and Moonlord eviscerate the non-existent authoritarian hygiene and total-lockdown policies of the COVID-19 pandemic, and Noel from Queens tackles the Democrats' need to be aggressive about literally anything. Newsmax goes all-in on homophobia, a Televangelist comes for Barbie's Dreamhouse, and Bailey from NC expands on the hell of economic life in America, plus, your calls and IMs!

I'm a software developer by trade. Owning real estate has been a goal of mine since I was a 7 year old kid watching my landlord stuff hundreds into his pockets every first of the month. But it didn't seem accessible. Fast forward about 20 years I decided to get myself into the right rooms and learned about wholesaling. After running a successful wholesale business for a few years, I wanted to create something that would provide more tax advantaged passive income. That's when I turned my sights on commercial real estate.”
