Anthony Allen Shore was put to death for one of those slayings, the 1992 killing of a 21-year-old woman whose body was dumped in the drive-thru of a Houston Dairy Queen.

In his final statement, Shore, 55, was apologetic and his voice cracked with emotion.

"No amount of words or apology could ever undo what I've done," Shore said while strapped to the death chamber gurney. "I wish I could undo the past, but it is what it is."

As the lethal dose of pentobarbital began, Shore said the drug burned. "Oooh-ee! I can feel that," he said before slipping into unconsciousness.

He was pronounced dead 13 minutes later at 6:28 p.m. CST.

"Anthony Allen Shore's reign of terror is officially over," Andy Kahan, the city of Houston crime victims' advocate, said, speaking for the families of Shore's victims. "There's a reason we have the death penalty in the state of Texas and Anthony Shore is on the top of the list. This has been a long, arduous journey that has taken over 20 years for victims' families."

Shore's lawyers argued in appeals he suffered brain damage early in life that went undiscovered by his trial attorneys and affected Shore's decision to disregard their advice when he told his trial judge he wanted the death penalty. A federal appeals court last year turned down his appeal, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to review his case and the six-member Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles unanimously rejected a clemency petition.

Shore's attorneys said his appeals were exhausted. They filed no last-minute attempts to try to halt his execution.

In 1998, Shore received eight years' probation and became a registered sex offender for sexually assaulting two relatives. Five years later, Shore was arrested for the 1992 slaying of Maria del Carmen Estrada after a tiny particle recovered from under her fingernail was matched to his DNA.

"I didn't set out to kill her," he told police in a taped interview played at his 2004 trial. "That was not my intent. But it got out of hand."

Estrada was walking to work around 6:30 a.m. on April 16, 1992, when he she accepted a ride from him. The former tow truck driver, phone company repairman and part-time musician blamed his actions on "voices in my head that I was going to have her, regardless, to possess her in some way."

He also confessed to killing three others, a 9-year-old and two teenagers. All four of his victims were Hispanic and at least three had been raped. Jurors also heard from three women who testified he raped them.

Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg, who as an assistant prosecutor worked the then-unsolved Estrada case, said crime scene photos showed Estrada was tortured and had suffered as a stick was used to tighten a cord around her neck.

"I know this case, I know his work and the death penalty is appropriate," she said. "A jury in this case gave Shore death. ... I think he's reached the end of the road and now it's up to government to complete the job."

Besides Estrada, Shore confessed to the slayings of Laurie Tremblay, 15, found beside a trash bin outside a Houston restaurant in 1986; Diana Rebollar, 9, abducted while walking to a neighborhood grocery store in 1994; and Dana Sanchez, 16, who disappeared in 1995 while hitchhiking to her boyfriend's home in Houston.

Sanchez's body was found after a caller to a Houston TV station provided directions on where to find it. Police believe Shore was the caller.

Shore's execution originally was set for last October but was delayed for an investigation after another Texas death row inmate concocted a scheme to get Shore to take responsibility for his crimes.

In 2017, 23 convicted killers were put to death in the U.S., seven of them in Texas, more than another state. Three more inmates are scheduled to die in Texas in the coming weeks.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James and Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry were selected by fans, players and media members as the two captains for the 2018 NBA All-Star Game in Los Angeles after they topped the voting in the Eastern and Western Conferences, respectively.

Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James and Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry were selected by fans, players and media members as the two captains for the 2018 NBA All-Star Game in Los Angeles after they topped the voting in the Eastern and Western Conferences, respectively.

The complete pool of starters, which was revealed Thursday evening, can be viewed below:
Eastern Conference

Backcourt: Kyrie Irving, G, Boston Celtics (24.1 PPG, 5.0 AST, 47.3 FG%)

Backcourt: DeMar DeRozan, G, Toronto Raptors (25.2 PPG, 5.0 AST, 48.0 FG%)

Frontcourt: LeBron James, F, Cleveland Cavaliers (27.3 PPG, 8.8 AST, 8.0 REB)

Frontcourt: Giannis Antetokounmpo, F, Milwaukee Bucks (28.2 PPG, 10.1 REB, 4.6 AST)

Frontcourt: Joel Embiid, C, Philadelphia 76ers (23.8 PPG, 10.8 REB, 1.9 BLK)

Western Conference

Backcourt: Stephen Curry, G, Golden State Warriors (27.7 PPG, 6.5 AST, 41.8 3P%)

Backcourt: James Harden, G, Houston Rockets (32.3 PPG, 9.1 AST, 1.8 STL)

Frontcourt: Kevin Durant, F, Golden State Warriors (26.2 PPG, 5.4 AST, 2.1 BLK)

Frontcourt: Anthony Davis, F, New Orleans Pelicans (26.7 PPG, 10.5 REB, 2.1 BLK)

Frontcourt: DeMarcus Cousins, C, New Orleans Pelicans (25.3 PPG, 12.7 REB, 5.1 AST)

The Sacramento Bee's Jason Jones provided a complete overview of the voting in all three phases:

While four starters in each conference appeared to be locks entering Thursday night's announcement, there was one hotly contested spot in the Eastern Conference frontcourt and another in the Western Conference frontcourt.

The Eastern Conference spot was a toss-up between Boston Celtics center Al Horford, New York Knicks forward Kristaps Porzingis and Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid.

Porzingis clocked in higher than Embiid in the player vote (100 to 94), but the Sixers big man topped his Atlantic Division counterparts in both the fan and media voting despite having missed nine games.

Consider his promise, which dates back to February 2013, officially kept:

In the West, the last frontcourt spot came down to New Orleans Pelicans center DeMarcus Cousins, San Antonio Spurs power forward LaMarcus Aldridge and Warriors forward Draymond Green.

And even though the Spurs (30-16) and Warriors (37-9) boast superior records to the Pelicans' 23-21 mark, Cousins' status as the league's lone player to be averaging at least 25 points, 10 rebounds and five assists overruled that.

As far as the revised format goes, the 2018 All-Star Game will not feature the classic East vs. West showdown.

Instead, James and Currywill convene and select their teams from the pool of eight remaining starters and 14 reserves-which will be comprised of two backcourt players, three frontcourt players and two wild-card players regardless of conference.

The reserves, who are selected by the league's head coaches, will be announced on Jan. 23 at 7 p.m. ET on TNT.

Complete rosters will then be unveiled Jan. 25 on TNT at 7 p.m. ET. However, the order of the captains' draft picks will not be disclosed to the public.

"Should there be a public selection? Yes, it would be more fun if we had that kind of draft," commissioner Adam Silver told NBA TV. "On the other hand, I recognize that in picking a team to perform in the here and now, it's a little different than drafting. There was a sense from the players that it put them in an impossible position, where they're picking one player over another-in part, not because they necessarily think that player is better than another player, maybe because they have a personal relationship with the player."

The 2018 All-Star Game will tip off from Staples Center on Feb. 18 at 8 p.m. ET.

The body of a British man dubbed the “crossbow killer” was found in a vehicle Monday after he allegedly killed his neighbor and injured a pregnant woman after an ongoing noise feud, reports said. The 55-year-old went missing after he allegedly attacked Shane Gilmer, 30, and Gilmer’s pregnant girlfriend, Laura Sugden, 27, in their rural Southburn home, near Driffield in East Yorkshire.

The body of a British man dubbed the "crossbow killer" was found in a vehicle Monday after he allegedly killed his neighbor and injured a pregnant woman after an ongoing noise feud, reports said.

Anthony Lawrence's body was found in a vehicle parked in North Yorkshire on Sunday evening, Humberside police said Monday. The 55-year-old went missing after he allegedly attacked Shane Gilmer, 30, and Gilmer's pregnant girlfriend, Laura Sugden, 27, in their rural Southburn home, near Driffield in East Yorkshire.

"Our inquiries into this tragic murder investigation continue. The incidents over the weekend have led to the death of Shane Gilmer and attempted murder of Shane's partner, Laura Sugden, who is pregnant," police said in a news release.

Residents in the neighborhood told local media the alleged murder began because of an ongoing spat over noise, the Telegraph reported. Lawrence, who lived next to Gilmer, reportedly complained about sound coming from the couple's house last month.

"They were apparently being too noisy. Shane and Laura lived next door to him, but hadn't been there long. This Anthony Lawrence guy wasn't happy about the noise," an unidentified man told the Telegraph.

He added: "It sounds like a horror movie."

Lawrence confronted the couple again on Friday about loud music - when the evening apparently turned deadly. Gilmer, a father of three children, and Sugden were found injured in the home, Sky News reported. A crossbow was located at the scene.

The couple was rushed to the hospital, where Gilmer was pronounced dead. Sugden suffered serious injuries, however, they were not life threatening. She and her unborn child were said to be in stable condition as of Monday.

A Florida mother charged with manslaughter for failing to take her 1 year old son to the hospital after he severely burned in a bath, injures in which he died from. She said her daughter tried to give the boy a bath but her other son, 4, made the water “extremely hot,” which caused the victim to “sustain severe burns from his mid torso to the toes."

A mother in Florida was charged with manslaughter Thursday for allegedly failing to take her 1-year-old son to the hospital after he was severely burned in a bath - injuries for which he eventually died, the Miami Herald reported.

As a neighbor performed CPR on the child, the mother reportedly pleaded "Please save my baby, I don't want to go back to jail."

Christina Hurt, 35, has reportedly been investigated by the Department of Children and Families for child neglect in the past.

She allegedly told police she didn't call for help because she didn't want to lose custody of her children, having already had a history of child neglect, the report said.

Hurt allegedly told police that she put the boy in a high-chair Wednesday night before taking out the trash. When she came back inside, she said her 10-year-old daughter was screaming.

She said her daughter tried to give the boy a bath but her other son, 4, made the water "extremely hot," which caused the victim to "sustain severe burns from his mid torso to the toes," the police report said, according to the paper.

The baby vomited several times throughout the night and was given Tylenol and juice, the report said.

Police responded to a call before noon the next day of a 1-year-old boy in respiratory arrest south of Miami. Upon arrival, police and a rescue crew found the baby "unresponsive" on a mattress.

A police report detailed "severe burns from his mid torso, to the toes."

A Chicago Bulls point guard on Wednesday night dislocated two teeth and suffered a concussion after he face-planted after a dunk during a home game against the Golden State Warriors.

Kris Dunn took the fall during the final minutes of the game. While the team initially said he wasn't displaying any concussion symptoms, further evaluation determined he did suffer a concussion.

With 2 minutes and 52 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, Dunn stole the ball and broke toward the net. He dunked the ball but the momentum carried him and he was unable to correct himself during the fall.

"He didn't lose teeth," Fred Hoiberg, the Bulls head coach, told ESPN. "There was a good little chunk that he took out of the floor. He's being evaluated. Tough kid."

Dunn was able to stand up and walk to the Bull's locker room after the fall. The team wrote on Twitter Thursday: "Dunn is out indefinitely related to the concussion."

The Bulls lost the game 119-112.

It's been seven months since the bodies of three women were found just weeks apart within a four-block radius in North Carolina, and investigators still don't have answers about what happened to them.

The FBI on Wednesday announced a reward of up to $30,000 for information that helps investigators determine the circumstances that led to the deaths of Christina Bennett, Rhonda Jones and Megan Oxendine in Lumberton, a city located some 95 miles south of the state's capital.

Bennett was found dead inside a house on Peachtree Street on April 18, 2017. Jones' body was found outside a house on East 5th Street on the same day.

Oxendine was found dead outside a house on East 8th Street on June 3, 2017. That month, the Lumberton Police Department requested assistance from the FBI in the three separate death investigations.

A cause of death has not yet been determined for any of the women, according to the FBI.

FBI

Authorities on Wednesday urged anyone who came into contact with the women to come forward to help investigators create a timeline of when and where they were last seen alive.

"Every part of our work as law enforcement benefits from help we receive from the public. We need the community's assistance, the people's eyes and ears, information from friends and neighbors," John Strong, special agent in charge of the FBI in North Carolina, said in a statement. "So we ask you to pick up the phone and call us. Tell us what you know, what you heard, and what you saw."

Lumberton Police Chief Michael McNeill previously said it was unclear whether there is a connection between the three deaths, which have haunted the community.

"As police chief and as a member of this community, I want to know what happened to Christina, Rhonda and Megan. I also understand there is a lot of uncertainty, concern and even fear right now," McNeill said in a statement Wednesday. "Let me reassure you that we are committed to finding out the answers. We hope the people of Lumberton will help us."

Anyone with information regarding when and where the women were last seen is asked to call the FBI's Charlotte field office at 704-672-6100.

At least ten people were killed Monday after a bridge collapsed near Bogota, Colombiaaccording to the country's Civil Defense authorities.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Known as the Chirajara bridge, the structure was under construction and not operational at the time of the collapse.

Nine people were killed at the site of the accident and a tenth victim succumbed to injuries at a local hospital.

"The victims are construction workers who were working on the project's drainage," the Colombian Civil Defense said in a statement. "We are still working to verify the total number of people who were working at the time."

The bridge was part of the main thoroughfare connecting Bogota to Villavicencio, a city southeast of the capital. It was estimated to be 446 meters long, according to the National Infrastructure Agency.

The infrastructure agency also announced that it will visit the site to investigate the accident at the request of President Juan Manuel Santos and the Minister of Transportation.

A search and rescue mission is underway to locate additional missing persons, the Colombian Civil Defense said in a statement.

"All my solidarity with relatives of the victims," President Santos said in an official tweet.

A television film crew was arrested on Thursday after attempting to pass a suspicious item with "all of the makings of an improvised explosive device" in at Newark Liberty International Airport. Seven members of the crew were arrested and can be charged over $13,000 per security violation. Their goal was to see whether or not the TSA would detect the item, which was concealed in a rolling bag. Some of the members had the baggage but others filmed the encounter.

&#151; -- A television film crew was arrested in New Jersey Thursday after allegedly attempting to pass a bag containing "all of the makings of an improvised explosive device" through security at Newark Liberty International Airport, authorities said.

Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers sounded the alarm when the film crewmembers, who claimed to be working for the CNBC show "Staten Island Hustle," allegedly attempted to smuggle a roller bag containing wires, a motor and PVC pipe through a checkpoint, police sources told ABC News.

One crewmember was covertly filming the encounter, an alleged scheme to test whether TSA officers would detect the concealed device, the sources said, adding that a third man involved in the shoot told police they were simply testing a prototype of a vacuum bag suitcase.

The production house the crew was working for said Friday that the item wasn't a fake IED, but rather "vacuum compression luggage."

"On Jan. 18, some cast and crew members of an upcoming series, 'Staten Island Hustle,' produced by Left Hook Media and Endemol Shine North America for air on CNBC Primetime, were detained at Newark Airport," Endemol Shine North America said in a statement. "The team was producing an episode about a new product, vacuum compression luggage, which allows travelers more room for clothing and has no other intended use. Unfortunately, there appears to have been a misunderstanding, and we regret any inconvenience to TSA and other authorities on the ground for complications that may have been caused."

A fake explosive device that a TV film crew allegedly brought to Newark Liberty International Airport.

Passengers repack luggage before it is screened at a new explosives detection system at the Newark Liberty International Airport on May 1, 2014.

TSA bomb techs later cleared the bag, and the crew was arrested.

All the TV crewmembers were released and their court date is pending, as the Essex County Prosecutor's Office said it is reviewing the case.

They reportedly face possible civil penalties, and could be charged over $13,000 per security violation.

Three performers from the Rout 91 Harvest Festival will perform tribute to  the victims killed at live music events  last year in this years Grammy awards. Eric Church, Maren Morris and Brothers Osborne, who performed at the three day festival were the mass shooting happen last October, will be singing together on the 60th annual Grammy Awards. Church wrote "Why Not Me" immediately after the mass shooting, he also knew some of the victims  because they were in his fan club . "Appreciates that the Grammy producers wanted to reserve time in the show to remember those music fans who had been lost" said Church.

Three performers at last year's Route 91 Harvest Festival where a gunman opened fire on fans will perform a tribute at this year's Grammy Awards to honor victims killed at live music events this past year.

Eric Church, Maren Morris and Brothers Osborne, who performed at the three-day country festival prior to the mass shooting last October, will collaborate on a special performance at the 60th annual Grammy Awards, airing live on CBS from New York on Jan. 28.

The shooting in Las Vegas was the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. modern history. It came in a year when 22 people were killed in a bombing outside an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England, in May.

Church headlined the first night of the festival, which was the last night of his tour. A gunman perched in a window of a hotel-casino overlooking the outdoor festival opened fire on the crowd during the final night of the festival as Jason Aldean was performing, killing 58 people and injuring hundreds more.

"In all honesty, there's not a day that goes by since that day that I have not thought of it and thought of the people and the victims," Church told The Associated Press. "That being our last show of the year, I took it in differently than I have maybe taken in other shows. I savored it. I remember everything about it."

Church, who wrote a song called "Why Not Me" immediately after the shooting, said he knew some of the victims because they were members of his tightknit fan club and said he appreciates that the Grammy producers wanted to reserve time in the show to remember those music fans who had been lost.

"Mass shootings, they happen every year, unfortunately," Church said. "But this year was a little bit unique in that you had two happen at music events and one of those was the largest mass shooting in U.S. history. It's been a tragic year."

Ken Ehrlich, executive producer of the Grammys, said the country artists will perform a classic Grammy-winning song, which hasn't been announced. "We considered a number of songs. We wanted something that is universal. We wanted something that spoke to the subject, which certainly this song does," he said. "When you listen to the lyric, this one certainly stood out."

Morris, a nominee for best country solo performance, performed the night before the shooting. She said she's heard directly from fans that the attacks have left them scared to go to shows, and said that it has affected artists as well.

"As an artist and a performer, I don't want to be afraid to walk out on a stage each night," Morris said. "I know that we've all been reckoning with that for the last several months."

Morris said it felt right to have performers from that festival lead the tribute. "It reinforces even more the strength of music and the community that we all share together, artists and fans alike."

Church said the attacks shattered the sense of safety and comfort that music can sometimes bring. He said that's been the hardest thing for him as an artist to deal with, but added that those attacks can't stop musicians or their fans.

"You don't let it kill the music and you don't let it destroy the moment," Church said.

GOP lawmakers demand that 'alarming' memo on FISA abuses be made public.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Several Republican members of Congress are reacting with shock and alarm after reading a "disturbing" four-page memo given to lawmakers on Thursday that details government surveillance abuses.

Speaking with Fox News on Thursday, the lawmakers said they could not yet discuss the contents, but thought the memo should be immediately made public.

"It is so alarming, the American people have to see it," Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan said.

"It's troubling. It's shocking," North Carolina Rep. Mark Meadows said. "Part of me wishes I didn't read it. I don't want to believe that those kinds of things are happening in this country that I love so much."

Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz said he thought the document woudl have a huge impact. "I believe the consequence of its release will be major changes in people currently working at the FBI and the Department of Justice," he said.

"You think about, 'is this happening in America or is this the KGB?' That's how alarming it is," Pennsylvania Rep. Scott Perry said.

The House Intelligence Committee on Thursday approved a motion by New York Rep. Pete King to release the memo on abuses of FISA, or the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, to all House members.
HEAD OF HOUSE INTELLIGENCE PANEL FINDS EVIDENCE OF ABUSE IN US GOVERNMENT SURVEILLANCE
A source close to the matter said the memo details the Intelligence Committee's oversight work for the FBI and Justice, including the controversy over unmasking and FISA surveillance.

The vote Thursday morning on releasing the memo to lawmakers was along party lines, with Democrats voting against making it available for all members.

The process for releasing it to the public involves a committee vote, a source said. If approved, it could be released as long as there are no objections from the White House within five days.

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., told Fox News in December that his investigators have already uncovered evidence of abuse in the U.S. government's surveillance practices.

"I believe there's evidence that abuses have occurred," Nunes said at the time.

Nunes pointed to the leaked conversation of former national security adviser, Gen. Mike Flynn with the Russian ambassador.

On Thursday, the Senate voted 65-34 to reauthorize a FISA provision that allows U.S. spy agencies to conduct surveillance on foreign targets abroad for six years. The bill, which already has been passed by the House, now heads to the White House,where President Donald Trump has said he will sign it into law.

The two parents in charge of the "house of horrors" Louise Turpin and David Turpin appeared in court Thursday afternoon, both of the parents pleaded not guilty. They are both being held on a bail of $12 million. If they are convicted on all charges including torture and child abuse, they could face 94 years to life in prison. It was found that one of the children at age 12 weighed the average amount of a seven-year-old, and the 29 year-old daughter weighed only 82 pounds.

twitter is trying to stop bots from sending porn links

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Last year Twitter took steps to clamp down on tweets featuring non-consensual explicit sexual images and videos, but experts say that the platform still needs to tackle the issue of porn links.

While Twitter, for the most part is a vast collection of pithy 280-character sentiments, you may have clicked a link or two that showed an explicit image. It's surprising because Twitter is mostly meant for everyday folks -- and kids, who can sign up at age 13.

One report about trending topics said that bots were to blame for spreading porn links on Twitter. One example: When reports about New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez committing suicide started trending, it became obvious that some of the links were to porn sites. Another highly publicized incident involved the circulation of revenge porn. It's also common to see a "user" who is obviously a bot with a sexually-oriented profile image, a ploy meant to convince you to click on links.
FACEBOOK SAYS IT NEEDS YOUR EXPLICIT PHOTOS TO COMBAT REVENGE PORN
Experts, however, say that the issue of porn links is a growing problem.

Dr. Nicole Prause, a neuroscientist who studies sexual motivation, says the main issue is related to consent. Adults and kids who use Twitter may not realize that there are no safeguards in place, and that it just takes one trending topic link to lead to a porn site. "People should be informed to know what kind of content they are accessing and be able (within reason) to avoid it if they do not wish to see it, otherwise they are not consenting to that exposure," she says.

With better safeguards, some users could be blocked automatically or a warning could appear telling the user that the link will lead to a site that contains pornography.
HOW FACEBOOK IS PLANNING TO ELIMINATE THE REVENGE PORN PROBLEM
"Twitter could look at a series of signals to determine if either the user sharing the false link or the link itself should be flagged before allowing users to click through," says Eric Dahan, co-founder and CEO of marketing platform Open Influence that uses similar tech to spot fake accounts. "Though AI is not necessary to do this, AI can be used to learn what a malicious user looks like and assign a confidence level to users that fit that profile."

Yvan Monneron, who runs a private browsing platform called SnowHaze, says protecting younger users is much more difficult. For one, it's hard to know if a middle-schooler lied about his or her age. He says Twitter tends to monitor accounts and strings of tweets but not individual tweets. "Blacklists (effective but not efficient) or a good combination of artificial intelligence may achieve this. Concerning the important protection of young users, a big company like Twitter should make investment in youth protection priority," he says.

AI routines could monitor fake accounts, block links for younger users, and protect users. The question to ask is -- why hasn't Twitter taken the steps to make that happen? Monneron said, in part, that it's really hard. The bots that create the links can react to any counter-measures and adjust their tactics, so it has to be a concerted, on-going security effort.

"Further evaluation of such techniques might show great potential in combatting bots," he said.

Twitter reps said the social platform does allow some adult content. Users sharing these links can mark the content as sensitive. And, there is a way to block adult content (see link). This does not account for the links that are hidden or not marked as sensitive, or the links that sneak through any filters.
