Recall the PNW power substation attacks?
Indictment information
A 33-year-old former Tacoma resident has been indicted for allegedly damaging multiple energy facilities across western Washington, according to a news release Thursday from acting U.S. Attorney Teal Luthy Miller.
Federal authorities said Zachary Rosenthal and his accomplices aimed to knock out power to disable security systems, making it easier to burglarize nearby businesses and ATMs.
"The idea was to knock out the power in a particular area, and then Rosenthal and his conspirators would then target either local businesses or ATM machines that were within the area that the power was out that were then, easier targets at that point with alarm systems and the light being deactivated," Assistant U.S. Attorney Todd Greenberg said.
Rosenthal is accused of attacking six power substations in the South Sound and Southwest Washington between June and December 2022. Court documents state the group targeted facilities in Lewis, Cowlitz, Pierce, Thurston, and Grays Harbor counties, causing outages that affected up to 6,000 customers at a time. The suspects allegedly used firearms, heavy chains, and physical force to damage electrical equipment.
"Sometimes they just damaged the equipment in a control room by smashing in and breaking it," Greenberg explained. "Sometimes they use the firearm to shoot into some of the tanks to disable of the system. And other times they used the metal chains which they threw onto equipment which caused short circuits and then power outages."

Seattle Woman Sentenced to Five Years in Prison For Torching Police Cars During BLM Riot
A Seattle woman has been sentenced to five years in prison for torching police vehicles during a Black Lives Matter riot in 2020.
Margaret Aislinn Channon, 26, pleaded guilty to arson for using aerosol cans as a blowtorch to light the cars on fire. She also broke windows, looted stores, and smashed police equipment.
Much of Channon's destruction was captured on video.
"According to the plea agreement, Channon appears in videos from the protest in downtown Seattle wearing distinctive clothing and showing tattoos on her hands and arms. Channon is captured on video using fire and aerosol cans to light five Seattle Police Department vehicles on fire," the Department of Justice said in a press release. "She is also shown entering various stores and removing items of clothing. She admits smashing the window at the Verizon Store, and entering a sandwich shop and destroying the electronic cash register. Investigators identified Channon based on her clothing, tattoos, and information from her various social media accounts."
Channon was arrested in June, 2020. Law enforcement executed a search warrant at her home in Tacoma and seized clothing and accessories that appear in some of the videos from the arsons.
Under the terms of the plea agreement, Channon is responsible for restitution.
During her sentencing, the judge criticized Channon for making the Black Lives Matter movement look bad, saying she did "tremendous damage to Black Lives Matter in Seattle."
"The right to protest, gather, and call out injustices is one of the dearest and most important rights we enjoy in the United States," said U.S. Attorney Nick Brown, according to a report from the Seattle Times. "Indeed, our democracy depends on both exercising and protecting these rights. But Ms. Channon's conduct was itself an attack on democracy."
Brown said Channon "used the cover of lawful protests to carry out dangerous and destructive acts, risking the safety of everyone around her and undermining the important messages voiced by others."
The prosecution had argued that Channon put everyone in danger, as one of the cars could have exploded.
"Hundreds of people were standing in the vicinity of the police cars that Channon burned, some only a few feet away," wrote Assistant U.S. Attorney Todd Greenberg. "All of them were in harm's way if one of the vehicles had exploded."

NRL boss Todd Greenberg sensationally QUITS after the game's financial woes were laid bare by the coronavirus lockdown
Todd Greenberg has quit his job as NRL CEO amid the ongoing coronavirus crisis
The NRL boss since 2016, he had come under increased scrutiny in recent weeks
Greenberg, 48, had lost the support of NRL clubs and rugby league commission
A bombshell statement by Channel Nine slammed his 'mismanagement' of NRL
Learn more about how to help people impacted by COVID
NRL boss Todd Greenberg has stood down amid mounting financial pressure on the game due to the ongoing coronavirus lockdown.
Greenberg made the announcement on Monday afternoon and in a statement said it had been an 'honour' to oversee the national rugby league code.
'It has been my great honour and privilege to be the CEO of the NRL for the last four years,' Greenberg said.
'Despite the variety of challenges and pressures I have loved every single minute of the journey. Our growth over the last 4 years has been extraordinary and I am very proud of my contribution to the game.'
Greenberg's decision to quit follows increased scrutiny on him in recent weeks, after the full state of the league's financial woes were laid bare amid the COVID-19 crisis.
It was revealed the league's head office was operating at a cost of almost $500,000-a-day, which is believed to have lost Greenberg the support of the clubs and ARL.
The NRL is desperate to get its players back on the park with serious fears not doing so could result in permanent financial ruin for some clubs.
Players have already been told they will have to take pay cuts up to 87 per cent due to the coronavirus crisis, while clubs have begun sacking coaching and front office staff.
Pressure on Greenberg only grew last week NRL TV rights holder Channel Nine hit out at 'mismanagement of the code' in recent years, in a bombshell statement.
'At Nine we had hoped to work with the NRL on a solution to the issues facing rugby league in 2020, brought on so starkly by COVID-19,' the statement began.
'But this health crisis in our community has highlighted the mismanagement of the code over many years. Nine has invested hundreds of millions in this game over decades and we now find they have profoundly wasted those funds with very little to fall back on to support the clubs, the players and supporters.

Chinese Telecommunications Device Manufacturer and its U.S. Affiliate Arraigned on Charges of Theft of Trade Secrets, Wire Fraud, and Obstruction of Justice
Huawei Corporate Entities Enter 'Not Guilty' Pleas - Agreed Trial Date of March 2020
Seattle - Huawei Device Co., Ltd. and Huawei Device USA Inc. were arraigned today on charges of theft of trade secrets conspiracy, attempted theft of trade secrets, seven counts of wire fraud, and one count of obstruction of justice. The companies entered pleas of 'not guilty.' Chief U.S. District Judge Ricardo S. Martinez set trial for March 2, 2020.
The indictment, returned by a grand jury last month, details Huawei's efforts to steal trade secrets from Bellevue, Washington based T-Mobile USA and then obstruct justice when T-Mobile threatened to sue Huawei in U.S. District Court in Seattle. The alleged conduct described in the indictment occurred from 2012 to 2014.
Under the maximum sentencing provisions applicable to corporate entities, Conspiracy and Attempt to Commit Trade Secret Theft are punishable by a fine of up to $5,000,000 or three times the value of the stolen trade secret, whichever is greater. Wire Fraud and Obstruction of Justice are punishable by a fine of up to $500,000.
The charges contained in the indictment are only allegations. A defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. The maximum statutory sentence is prescribed by Congress and is provided here for informational purposes. If convicted of any offense, the sentencing of the defendants will be determined by the court based on the advisory Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.
The case is being investigated by the FBI. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Todd Greenberg and Thomas Woods of the Western District of Washington, with assistance from the Department of Justice's National Security Division's Counterintelligence and Export Control Section.
U.S. Attorney Brian T. Moran has been recused from this matter because of legal representations he undertook before he joined the Department of Justice. Per direction from ethics officials in the Department of Justice, First Assistant U.S. Attorney Annette L. Hayes will act as U.S. Attorney with respect to this matter pursuant to the authority conferred by 28 U.S.C. § 515.

Woodinville, Washington Company and Owner Plead Guilty to Violating Arms Export Control Act and Wire Fraud
Defendants Illegally Sent Restricted Defense Department Information
to Taiwan
A Woodinville, Washington based company and its owner pleaded guilty today in U.S. District Court in Seattle to violating the Arms Export Control Act and wire fraud, announced U.S. Attorney Jenny A. Durkan. The company, PRECISION IMAGE CORPORATION, is operated by owner, CHIH-KWANG HWA, out of his Woodinville home. HWA obtained contracts to supply circuit boards to the U.S. Navy by falsely claiming the boards would be manufactured in the United States. Instead HWA illegally sent restricted information to a company in Taiwan for the boards to be manufactured there. The company faces a fine of up to $1,000,000 and HWA faces up to 20 years in prison when sentenced by U. S. District Judge James. L. Robart on October 28, 2013.
"Our national security depends upon protecting our military systems and their specifications. Going 'on the cheap,' gave this defendant an unfair advantage over other suppliers and risked our security," said U.S. Attorney Jenny A. Durkan. "Protecting our military technical data and enforcing our export restrictions are critical priorities of the U.S. Attorney's Office."
According to the charging information and the plea agreements in the case, between 2009 and 2011, HWA obtained contracts worth $180,034 to supply circuit boards to the U.S. Navy. The Navy supplied technical data to PRECISION IMAGE that contained the technical specifications for the circuit boards. This technical data was designated on the United States Munitions List, International Traffic in Arms Regulations. As a result, this technical data could not legally be transmitted outside the United States without a license from the U.S. State Department. CHIH-KWANG HWA knew about this restriction at the time he received the technical data from the Navy. HWA did not get the appropriate licenses, and sent the restricted data to the Taiwan manufacturer. One of the transmissions occurred in September 2011, and the Taiwanese manufactured circuit boards were later provided to the Navy. In addition, many of the contracts awarded to HWA were set aside for companies that promised to manufacture the boards in the United States. HWA falsely represented to the Navy in connection with these contracts that the boards were being manufactured in the United States, when instead they were being manufactured in Taiwan.
"U.S. export controls are in place to keep sensitive technology from falling into the hands of our nation's enemies," said Brad Bench, special agent in charge of HSI Seattle. "One of HSI's highest priorities is to prevent illicit procurement networks, terrorist groups, and hostile nations from illegally obtaining military items and controlled dual-use technology."
Under the terms of the plea agreement, prosecutors will recommend the company pay a $300,000 fine and HWA serve a sentence within the anticipated guidelines range of 15-21 months in prison. Judge Robart is free to accept or reject these recommendations at the time of sentencing.
The case was investigated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations and the Naval Criminal Investigative Service. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorneys Todd Greenberg and Thomas Woods.

Khawaja appeal against armband sanction denied by ICC
Daniel Brettig - January 7, 2024
1/2
Usman Khawaja's reprimand for wearing a black armband onto the field during the first Test against Pakistan in Perth will stand after the International Cricket Council rejected his appeal against the sanction, according to a source close to the situation who wished to remain anonymous ahead of any public announcement being made.
Khawaja wore the armband in a personal gesture of mourning for children killed in Gaza during the conflict that has taken place since early October, and told the ICC that he had done so for a personal bereavement.
He did so after an initial plan to wear shoes emblazoned with the slogans "All lives are equal" and "Freedom is a human right" was also rejected.
The ICC was contacted for comment.
"They asked me on day two what it was for and [I] told them it was for a personal bereavement," Khawaja said last month. "I never ever stated it was for anything else. The shoes were a different matter, I'm happy to say that. The armband makes no sense to me.
"I followed all the regulations, past precedents, guys that put stickers on their bats, names on their shoes, done all sorts of things in the past without ICC approval and never been reprimanded. I respect the ICC and the rules and regulations they have.
"I will be asking them and contesting they make it fair and equitable for everyone and they have consistency in how they officiate. That consistency hasn't been done yet."
Following the Perth Test and the decision to reprimand Khawaja, he workshopped an idea for another humanitarian symbol to wear, ultimately settling on the image of a dove and olive branch alongside a reference to article one of the universal declaration of human rights.
That concept was approved by an emergency sitting of the Cricket Australia board, following discussions with the CA chief executive and his counterpart at the Australian Cricketers' Association, Todd Greenberg.
"I feel strongly about the right of every human being to enjoy peace, freedom and equality in dignity and rights regardless of their gender, age, colour, race, language, religion or national or social origin," Khawaja wrote in the submission. "Some human rights are inalienable and transcend all our differences.
"These rights are enshrined in the United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948) that has been ratified by all member states of the United Nations.
"At a time when there is such a loss of life and liberty in the world - most recently in the Middle East - I would like to promote a personal message of peace, freedom and equality by displaying an internationally recognised symbol of peace and freedom - a dove with a sprig - on the back of my bat together with the phrase "01: UDHR" (Logo)."

NRL CEO Todd Greenberg announces sudden resignation
Under-fire NRL CEO Todd Greenberg has stepped down from his role effective immediately.
The chief executive's position has been a topic of hot discussion even before the current shutdown brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic.
On Monday afternoon, however, Greenberg officially ended his four-year reign as NRL chief executive.
The 49-year-old stood down with the NRL claiming it was with "mutual agreement" after "reflecting on the needs of the game".
He will be replaced by chief commercial officer Andrew Abdo in the interim as part of the first big shake-up of the Peter V'landys era.
Under pressure to keep his job for the past month, Greenberg's exit comes after meetings between broadcasters and the NRL about the competition's structure.
Greenberg had come under fire from the game's free-to-air broadcaster Nine Network earlier this month, when it accused the league of financial mismanagement.
"It has been my great honour and privilege to be the CEO of the NRL for the last four years," Greenberg said in a statement.
"Despite the variety of challenges and pressures I have loved every single minute of the journey.
"Our growth over the last 4 years has been extraordinary and I am very proud of my contribution to the game.
"I am indebted to the game for the variety of opportunities and experiences that have been provided to my family and I, and we leave with many great memories and life long friendships."
Greenberg will not take up another role in the NRL, with his involvement in the sport ending on Monday.
The former boss of Canterbury, Greenberg became the NRL's head of football in 2013 before he took over the reins in 2016.
His first major challenge came in the form of Parramatta's salary-cap scandal, while off-field behaviour proved his biggest test until coronavirus.
However, even before the competition was postponed last month, rumours had began to surface of frustration from clubs towards Greenberg with his contract up for renewal in 2020.
He was last week kept out of NRL meetings with Nine while there were significant questions around head office expenditure in recent years.
Greenberg had vowed to lead the charge on fixing those issues in an email to staff as late as last week, before his stint was abruptly ended.
"The role of Chief Executive of the NRL is one of the most challenging and difficult roles in Australian sport, with a diversity of passionate stakeholders," ARL Commission chairman V'landys said in a statement.
"ARLC thanks Todd for his contribution to the game over the last seven years and as Chief Executive for the last four years."

'Very surprised': ACT Health boss announces shock resignation
The shock resignation of ACT Health boss Michael De'Ath won't derail the government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic or delivery of the $500 million Canberra hospital expansion, Health Minister Rachel Stephen-Smith says.
Ms Stephen-Smith announced in a statement on Monday afternoon that Mr De'Ath had quit his position as ACT Health Directorate director-general, effective immediately.
She later told a press conference that she had "conversations" with the highly-regarded executive in the past week, but conceded the resignation came with "kind of short notice".
Australian Medical Association ACT branch president Antonio Di Dio, who has clashed with Mr De'Ath in the past, said he was "very surprised, even amazed" to learn of the departure of the director-general, whom he now holds in high regard.
Ms Stephen-Smith said Mr De'Ath wanted to return to Melbourne to be with family. She said each of his three daughters had been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in some way, although she didn't elaborate on how.
It was understood that Mr De'Ath has already returned to Melbourne.
Asked if Mr De'Ath's resignation was linked in any way to the government's handling of the coronavirus pandemic, Ms Stephen-Smith said: "he has not conveyed to me that was part of his thinking".
"Obviously this past month have been very difficult for everyone," Mr Stephen-Smith said.
"Michael was very clear that he wanted to return to Melbourne to be with his family."
