A U.S. man and his sister were sentenced
to life in prison on Thursday for cyberstalking that led
to the shooting death of the man's former wife and her
friend in a Delaware courthouse lobby ahead of a
contentious child custody hearing.
David Matusiewicz, his sister Amy Gonzalez and his
mother Lenore were convicted in U.S. District Court in
Delaware last July of cyberstalking resulting in death,
the first successful application of federal law on the
offense, prosecutors said. They were also found guilty
of conspiracy.
Matusiewicz and Gonzalez were sentenced to life by
U.S. District Judge Gerald McHugh on Thursday, the
U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Delaware said.
Matusiewicz's mother was sentenced to life at her
bedside last week at Jefferson Medical Center in
Philadelphia, federal prosecutors said.
"This ground-breaking prosecution and investigation
shows people who actively take part in planning
crimes, even though they don't pull the trigger, will be
held accountable," said Kevin Perkins, special agent in
charge of the FBI in Delaware.
On Feb. 11, 2013, David Matusiewicz and his father
Thomas went to confront David's ex-wife Christine
Belford at New Castle County Courthouse when she
arrived for a child support hearing in their custody
case.
Thomas Matusiewicz then shot dead Belford and her
friend Laura Mulford in the courthouse lobby and took
his own life after exchanging gunfire with police.
The shooting was the culmination of a four-year
campaign of letters, websites and Internet postings to
"stalk, harass, and intimidate" Belford, the mother of
David Matusiewicz's three children, according to U.S.
prosecutors.
They said David Matusiewicz orchestrated the plan and
recruited his parents and sister while serving a 48-
month jail term for abducting his children and hiding
out with them for 19 months in Nicaragua and other
countries.

Not less than 300 students - players, male and
female from 16 Nigerian Universities would later this
month storm the Redemption camp of Redeemed
Christian Church of God (RCCG) in Lagos to
participate in a sports fiesta which is part of the
74th birthday anniversary of Pastor Enoch Adeboye.
The games (Volley Ball and Futsal competitions), is
to run from Monday February 29 to March 5th.
Speaking at a press
conference in Lagos
yesterday to
announce the
commencement of
the Games, the
Director of Sports,
Redeemer’s Sports
Directorate, RCCG,
Paul Bankole,
explained that the
games, which would
be guided by 70
officials, would be
sponsored by the
Governors of Ondo
and Lagos States,
Olusegun Mimiko
and Akinwumi
Ambode, who are the spiritual sons of the RCCG
General Overseer.
Bankole, while defending the choice of Volleyball
and Futsal games for the celebration said it is to
underscore the the importance of the game of
volleyball to the General Overseer, who played and
coached the sport while he was at the University.
He said aside the economic and health importance
of these games, Futsal and foot volley can be easily
played by everyone, everywhere - outdoor and on the
grass.
“Our G. O played volleyball and also became
volleyball coach when he was at the University of
Lagos for his Masters. At 74 he is still active. He
still talks and demonstrates some skills even in
boxing, another sport he also featured in as a
student.”
He said he had no doubt that the games is capable
of producing future Olympians.
‘We are aware that there are thousands of potential
Olympic stars and we believe with the backing of
NOC we will produce these athletes”, he stated.
Egypt on Thursday laid to rest its
veteran diplomat Boutros Boutros-Ghali, holding a
funeral procession with top honors in the capital, Cairo,
followed by a service at the nation's largest Coptic
cathedral for the man who was the first U.N. chief
from Africa.
Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi led the
procession, walking at the front of the cortege as a
horse-drawn hearse carried Boutros-Ghali's flag-draped
coffin. The head of Egypt's Coptic Church attended the
service in Cairo, along with senior dignitaries.
Eulogizing Boutros-Ghali, the Coptic patriarch, Pope
Tawadros II, said Egypt was bidding "farewell to this
fine example in Egyptian life and in Egyptian history."
UNESCO chief Irina Bokova, representing the United
Nations, Arab League Secretary-General Nabil Elaraby,
and his predecessor Amr Moussa and other Egyptian
ministers and officials attended the service at the
Coptic Cathedral in the Abbassia district in Cairo.
At U.N. headquarters in New York and U.N. offices
around the world, flags flew at half-staff in honor of
the sixth U.N. secretary-general.
The 193-member General Assembly paid tribute to
Boutros-Ghali, led by U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-
moon who said that as the first post-Cold War
secretary-general he "helped the United Nations find its
footing in a new global landscape" at a tumultuous
time.
Rihanna delayed the start of a world
tour days after the R&B star missed the Grammys,
citing an illness that affected her voice.
The first scheduled show on Rihanna's "Anti" tour is
now March 12 in Jacksonville, Florida, according to her
website and notices from venues.
Rihanna had previously been due to open the tour on
February 26 in San Diego, but has postponed eight
shows.
The singer abruptly canceled a performance on Monday
at the Grammys, the music industry's top awards.
Her representative said at the time that the Barbados-
born singer had fallen ill and was under doctor's orders
to rest her vocal cords to avoid permanent damage.
A representative did not immediately respond to a
request for comment Thursday.
Rihanna is scheduled to end the tour on August 12 in
Zurich.
The Barbados-born singer toured extensively in 2013
and then briefly the following year with Eminem, but
had since kept a lower profile.
She returned to the scene last month with "Anti," her
first full-length album since 2012.
A military court in Ivory Coast on
Thursday sentenced three soldiers loyal to ex-president
Laurent Gbagbo to life in prison over the 2002 murder
of a former junta leader.
General Robert Guei was shot dead on September 19,
2002, during a failed coup against Gbagbo's regime.
His wife, several members of his family and his
personal guards were killed that same day.
Guei had led a military junta that ruled the west African
nation from December 1999 to October 2000, when
Gbagbo defeated him at the polls.
Following a trial that last nearly a month, the court-
martial found ex-security chief Anselme Seka Yapo
guilty of murder, while Gbagbo's former Republican
Guard commander Brunot Dogbo Ble as well as
sergeant Daleba Sery were ruled to have acted as
accomplices.
Of the 19 defendants on trial over the murder, six were
sentenced to 10 years in prison. The others were
acquitted.
During the trial, prosecutors accused Seka Yapo of
firing the fatal shot.
Lawyers for the defence have said they intend to
appeal the verdict, citing a lack of evidence of their
clients' guilt.
"I am disappointed but not discouraged," said lawyer
Modeste Abie. "We believe that our clients do not
deserve life terms."
Seka Yapo was last year already sentenced to 20 years
in prison for murder committed during the country's
post-election crisis in 2010-2011.
Dogbo Ble was sentenced in 2012 to 15 years in jail for
complicity in the murder of a retired officer, and last
year to another 20 years for his role in the 2010-2011
violence.
Some 3,000 people were killed after the disputed
presidential vote in late 2010, when Gbagbo refused to
relinquish power after being narrowly defeated in his
bid for re-election.
He is currently on trial at the International Criminal
Court in The Hague for crimes against humanity over
the violence.
An Ikeja Chief Magistrate’s Court, yesterday,
remanded one Abdulsalam Olayinka, 20, in prison for
allegedly raping a 14-year-old orphan on Valentine’s
Day.
Chief Magistrate Tajudeen Elias ordered that the
accused be remanded in Kirikiri Prison and adjourned
the case till February 24 for ruling on the bail
application.
The accused, a trader, who lives at 2, Amodu St.,
Agege, Lagos, is standing trial for rape.
The prosecutor, Inspector Benedict Aigbokhan, told
the court that the offence was committed on
February 14 at 5, Olanrawaju St., Agege.
Aigbokhan told the court that the accused went to
his friend’s house, but that the friend was not
around; that he met the girl in the house and raped
her.
Aigbokhan said: “The victim, who is an orphan,
screamed but no one in the house came to her
rescue, except her aged grandmother.”
The offence, according to the prosecutor,
contravenes Section 137 of the Criminal Law of
Lagos State, 2011.
The accused, however, pleaded not guilty.
