Authorities are searching for a trio of modern tomb raiders that they say has stolen family heirlooms and other valuables from cemeteries in at least nine states. The suspects — a mother and daughter, and the daughter’s boyfriend — “went on a tour of the eastern half of the United States,” breaking into niches and mausoleums, said Corporal Cole Brazee of the Orange County Sheriff’s Office in Florida. Officers have arrest warrants out for Porsche Bancroft, 32, her boyfriend, Drake Lee Milam, 33, and her mother, Angela Garrett, 52. All three are from Indianapolis, Brazee said in a video shared…

The US Supreme Court for a second time rejected President Donald Trump’s request to overturn a jury finding that he sexually abused and defamed the writer E. Jean Carroll. The rebuff leaves intact a $5 million award that Carroll collected after the high court’s June 29 refusal to take up Trump’s appeal. The president had asked the court to take the unusual step of changing its mind on hearing his arguments in the case. Trump is separately asking the court to consider overturning an $83.3 million jury verdict Carroll won in a second defamation suit against him. The court will…

President Donald Trump…

Technology advancements have brought a lot of positive things to the job search process, but it comes with the loss of personalization–something that is crucial to recruitment. One way you can avoid falling into the trap is to prioritize candidate management. Many organizations, especially in industries like insurance, struggle to balance the demands of high-volume applications and a large quantity of job openings with quality candidate experiences. This often results in a transactional approach that neglects crucial relationship-building between hiring managers, HR professionals, and candidates. The significance of building relationships with job seekers cannot be overstated. When you prioritize relationships…

The top U.S. financial regulator on Friday made permanent its decision to cease judging whether companies may exclude shareholder resolutions from votes at annual meetings, leaving investor activists concerned about diminishing influence. In practice, the change announced by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission extends a freeze put in place last November on deciding whether to approve corporate requests to skip votes on shareholder proposals. The responses were known as “no-action” letters because they answered corporate requests for assurance the agency would take no action if executives skipped votes on proposals that often deal with hot-button issues like carbon emissions…

Emergency services were attempting to control a large wildfire in the east of Belgium on Sunday, after the blaze destroyed about 2,700 hectares (6,700 acres) of a nature reserve and forced about 600 residents to evacuate in an area near the German border.

The fast-moving wildfire is nearing the German border, with the city of Monschau, a major tourist hub in the Eifel region, in focus. Local authorities early Sunday morning urged residents in…

It’s no surprise given the penetration of artificial intelligence into lives and businesses that it appears insurers are gearing up to exclude AI risk in some of their commercial liability policies. Three ISO exclusions have garnered more interest from carriers, according to an attorney who practices in the cyber space and an expert who helped write the exclusions. “There’s been a major shift in the insurance industry’s treatment of AI-related risks and insurers are moving very quickly to limit this exposure,” said Alana McMullin, a partner in Lathrop GPM, whose practice focuses on defending clients in complex insurance disputes, products…

Upon move-in, a resident signed a lease requiring renter’s insurance. But after two years in the apartment, no one has verified the policy is still active. In fact, it lapsed three months ago. Next thing you know, a loss event occurs, and a dispute follows, but there’s no insurer to pursue. This kind of scenario isn’t an edge case for many operators in the multifamily space but reflects how they often manage renter’s insurance: It’s verified once, then assumed valid. A lax approach to renter’s insurance compliance is becoming harder to sustain as property insurance costs rise. One survey estimates…
