The Trump administration is weighing tighter limits on Cuban officials traveling to the U.N. as it intensifies pressure on Havana; Cuba’s foreign minister denounced the measures as collective punishment, while U.S. sanctions’ effects on fuel, essential goods and aid delivery remain a concern.

Prosecutors Won’t Seek Death Penalty for Reiner

Nick Reiner, the son of Rob and Michele Reiner, is facing a multi-count murder indictment tied to the December Brentwood killings and is due in court for a pretrial hearing as prosecutors pursue charges that include murder with special circumstances such as lying in wait and the use of a knife. The district attorney has opted not to pursue the death penalty, influenced by the victims’ anti-execution views, a state moratorium on capital punishment, and family dynamics, while the defense seeks access to a $1.5 million trust fund to mount the defense as the case proceeds toward potential life-in-prison outcomes.
