Wind chills reached minus 36 Fahrenheit (minus 38 Celsius) that night in January 2022 as the family from India set out on foot to meet a waiting van. Coordinating things in Canada, federal prosecutors say, was Harshkumar Patel, an experienced smuggler nicknamed "Dirty Harry."

After months of legal wrangling, Rudy Giuliani on Friday turned over his luxury sports car, several watches, a ring and financial assets to two Georgia election workers he defamed in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election, his lawyer wrote Friday. A federal jury ordered Giuliani last year to pay Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss nearly $150 million for defaming them with false accusations that the mother and daughter committed election fraud while the two were counting ballots in Georgia's Fulton County on Election Day in 2020. The attorneys for both sides waged a back in forth in court for months over the delivery of those assets and, last week, attorneys representing Freeman and Moss said Giuliani's apartment was virtually empty when their receivership entered the property.

The Texas Supreme Court on Friday said the state could set a new execution date for a man convicted of murdering his toddler on evidence of "shaken baby syndrome," ruling that a legislative committee exceeded its authority in delaying the sentence. In October, Robert Roberson, 57, was set to become the first person in the U.S. to be executed for a murder attributed to internal brain trauma caused by violent shaking. Hours before the sentence was to be carried out, he was spared death by lethal injection because a bi-partisan group state lawmakers wanted him to testify before them about the case, and successfully petitioned the high court.
