IDABEL, Okla. (AP) — The widow of an Oklahoma man who died following a 2022 arrest filed a lawsuit Thursday against the rural sheriff who a newspaper says it caught on tape talking about killing journalists who were reporting on her husband’s death.Last March, outside the rural area of McCurtain County, Bobby Barrick’s death drew scant attention. The 45-year-old had died in a hospital days after deputies shocked him with a stun gun.But the wrongful death lawsuit that Barbara Barrick filed in federal court Thursday comes as national attention is drawn on the county, more than 230 miles (370 kilometers) southeast of Oklahoma City, by a recording of local officials discussing killing journalists and lynching Black people.“It’s been a hard year not knowing what happened to my husband,” Barbara Barrick said during a Thursday news conference in front of the sheriff’s office.

PSG and Galtier taking Angers seriously despite mismatch

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 10:48:12 GMT

PARIS (AP) — The word mismatch seems like an understatement as first-place Paris Saint-Germain visits rock-bottom Angers on Friday.While a victory for PSG would take it another step toward a record 11th league title — one clear of Marseille and Saint-Etienne — Angers appears doomed to relegation.They are an enormous 58 points behind PSG in the championship, with three wins.The chasm is such that Angers has won only once in the past 23 league matches and is 17 points from safety with seven games remaining.The top scorers for Angers are forward Adrien Hunou and Morocco winger Sofiane Bouffal. They have four goals each compared to 20 for PSG’s Kylian Mbappé, who is tied with Lille’s Jonathan David atop the scoring charts.Although PSG has had some poor performances this season and was dominated by Bayern Munich in the round of 16 of the Champions League, losing at Angers would signal a new low for coach Christophe Galtier’s embattled team.“There will be a full stadium,...
