Attorneys for former Sen. Bob Menendez and two businessmen convicted last summer of bribing the New Jersey Democrat want a federal judge to vacate their convictions and order a new trial, saying an evidentiary error prosecutors recently revealed deprived the men of a fair trial. Prosecutors alerted the defense and Judge Sidney H. Stein two weeks ago that they accidentally uploaded nine documents to a laptop jurors could consult during deliberations that had fewer redactions than Stein had ordered. MORE: 76ers say rides to games on SEPTA will be included with season ticket packages, for one year, if arena is approved But in a flurry of filings Wednesday, defense attorneys say they since have found two more insufficiently redacted exhibits given to jurors – including one in which Menendez co-defendant Fred Daibes referenced Adolf Hitler. The defense attorneys also complained that prosecutors wiped the laptop clean, without their knowledge or consent, making it impossible for a forensic review that could determine if jurors reviewed any of the 3,074 exhibits that had been there, and which ones. Menendez's attorneys called prosecutors' goof "undoubtedly prejudicial" because the documents at issue could have eliminated a skeptical jury's reasonable doubt. "The pall cast over Senator Menendez's convictions by the revelation of the government's error – and the attendant prejudice to Senator Menendez – is more than sufficient basis for this Court to vacate all counts of conviction and order a new trial," they wrote. They also urged Stein not to accept prosecutors' contention they made an innocent mistake in uploading the wrong exhibits. Prosecutors fiercely fought to get the documents introduced as evidence because they deemed them "very critical" to their argument that Menendez was acting as a foreign agent for Egypt when he signed off on billions in U.S. funding and military sales to Egypt. Uploading them for jurors' review without Stein's ordered redactions could amount to recklessness that warrants court sanctions, they added. "Had prosecutors blurted out the contents of the Unredacted Exhibits during closing, there is no doubt this Court would have ordered an immediate mistrial," Menendez's attorneys wrote. "The only question here is whether a different remedy is warranted, because the government slipped this 'very critical' evidence to the jury via a laptop, rather than a summation. The answer is no." The drama over the documents comes just days after Damian Williams, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York who brought the case, said he would resign next month. President-elect Donald Trump had already announced that he picked former Securities and Exchange Commission chairman Jay Clayton to lead the office. Defense attorneys have asked for fuller discovery in the matter. Prosecutors have until Dec. 6 to respond. In a letter to Stein sent earlier this month, prosecutors insisted the mistake caused no harm because jurors – who deliberated less than three full days – probably never saw the documents in dispute, given that the laptop contained thousands of pages of exhibits and they'd heard nine weeks of testimony. All the defense attorneys blasted that argument, though, saying it insulted jurors by assuming they ignored Stein's directive to deliberate carefully. "The government declares that the Court need not worry, because the jury probably did not bother looking at these violative exhibits," Menendez's attorneys wrote. "But the government offers nothing for this Alfred Neuman defense – which is premised on the jury ignoring this Court's instruction to review the summary charts' underlying exhibits. The only proper remedy here is vacatur on all counts." Besides, attorneys know jurors consulted the laptop because early in their deliberations, they alerted the judge they had a technical problem and needed a cord to help them view the laptop's contents on a TV screen in the jury room. For the convictions to stand, prosecutors must prove – not presume – their error was harmless, said attorney Lawrence Lustberg, who represented Menendez co-defendant Wael Hana. "A criminal defendant's Sixth Amendment rights are violated when a jury considers incriminating evidence that was not admitted at trial," Lustberg wrote. "Indeed, courts have consistently reversed convictions under circumstances like those present here, where information that should have been redacted was provided to the jury." The wrinkle in this wrongly introduced evidence is that it centers on a constitutional protection known as the speech or debate clause, which protects legislators from liability for actions they take in the course of their jobs. A 1992 federal ruling – in a money-laundering case against a congressman from Georgia – held that harmless-error arguments don't excuse a violation when the speech or debate privilege is invoked, Menendez's attorneys argued. "This Court expressly prohibited any evidence of past legislative activity, including involvement in the provision of any particular military aid to Egypt," Menendez's attorneys wrote. "The Unredacted Exhibits squarely crossed that line, however, and allowed the jury to infer bribery from Senator Menendez's legislative acts – exactly what the Speech or Debate Clause is meant to prevent." While Hana and Daibes aren't protected by that clause, their attorneys argued that the evidentiary gaffe harmed them too because prosecutors argued all the defendants' actions were part of a single, overarching scheme in which the businessmen would benefit by bribing Menendez and his wife, Nadine, with gold bars, cash, a luxury car and more in exchange for his influence. Attorneys for Daibes had portrayed the Edgewater real estate developer during the trial as a longtime, dear friend of the Menendezes who gave them gold and other gifts because he was generous. But one of the unredacted documents at issue is a text from Daibes to a Qatari official that referred to an antique Mercedes Benz Daibes had bought that he referred to as his "Hitler car," because it was believed to have been commissioned by Hitler or used by his generals, Daibes' attorneys wrote. "The prejudice to Mr. Daibes could not be more obvious," his attorneys wrote. "A Palestinian-born American citizen, conversing with an Arab, and making reference to Adolf Hitler would certainly lead a contemporary jury to question his character."

Rangers captain James Tavernier echoed the sentiment of his manager in believing his side deserved more than just a point from what was a special Europa League encounter against Tottenham Hotspur at Ibrox. Tavernier provided the assist for Hamza Igamane's opener, which was his 16th direct goal involvement in the competition. Rangers held their own and could've won it through Cyriel Dessers after Dejan Kulusevski finished off a well-worked move from the visitors to equalise late on. The Light Blues are on 11 points from their opening six league phase matches and currently occupy eighth position. Should they hold onto that over the next two fixtures then Philippe Clement's men would earn automatic qualification to the Europa League last-16. "Yeah, well we've gone in there [the dressing room] disappointed that we've not come away with three points," he told TNT Sports. "We had the chances to probably finish off the game. Obviously Tottenham have got great quality, so the one moment when we probably left our positions, we got punished for it. "We will take a point and it puts us in a good position. "There's been small tweaks over the past couple of weeks in the way we are playing, a lot of lads are really in form and we are putting in the performances. "I said yesterday that it was important that we kept the consistency in our performances, and I felt like we did that tonight." Read more: Clement disappointed Rangers couldn't earn 'deserved' win over Spurs Rangers sweating over fitness of key defender after Spurs withdrawal Asked if he felt that Spurs were vulnerable, with Igamane scoring to put Rangers in front just minutes after the half-time break, Tavernier replied: "We obviously got shown clips of them and that was a weakness that we seen. "When they are attacking they put numbers up. So, it was important for us to get them on the transition and create chances, and I felt like we did that. "I love this competition playing against the best teams in Europe. That's what you want to do as a player and obviously I thrive on it. The team does, you see the fans, they obviously thrive off this competition. It's a great competition to play in." (Image: TNT Sports) Meanwhile, Tottenham goalscorer Kulusevski admitted that they didn't do enough to leave Glasgow with anything better than a draw and credited the Rangers support for their contribution to the Battle of Britain contest. "I think Rangers played very well, we struggled a bit," he said. "It ends 1-1, it is what it is. We didn't play well enough to win the game. "I think Rangers played a perfect game, it's a beautiful stadium, the fans helped them a lot. We missed a bit in the first half, the second half was a little bit better. "I wanted to change something, to make something happen and I succeeded once but it was not enough today. “It's always important to score but we've got to start winning games now. We haven't won in a couple of weeks, so it's time to win on Sunday. I think everybody needs to do a little more than we're doing now."Tait-Jones scores 21 as UC San Diego defeats James Madison 73-67

By HILLEL ITALIE NEW YORK (AP) — Even through a year of nonstop news about elections, climate change, protests and the price of eggs, there was still time to read books. U.S. sales held steady according to Circana, which tracks around 85% of the print market, with many choosing the relief of romance, fantasy and romantasy. Some picked up Taylor Swift’s tie-in book to her blockbuster tour, while others sought out literary fiction, celebrity memoirs, political exposes and a close and painful look at a generation hooked on smartphones. Here are 10 notable books published in 2024, in no particular order. Asking about the year’s hottest reads would basically yield a list of the biggest hits in romantasy, the blend of fantasy and romance that has proved so irresistible fans were snapping up expensive “special editions” with decorative covers and sprayed edges. Of the 25 top sellers of 2024, as compiled by Circana, six were by romantasy favorite Sarah J. Maas, including “House of Flame and Shadow,” the third of her “Crescent City” series. Millions read her latest installment about Bryce Quinlan and Hunter Athalar and traced the ever-growing ties of “Maasverse,” the overlapping worlds of “Crescent City” and her other series, “Throne of Glass” and “A Court of Thorns and Roses.” If romantasy is for escape, other books demand we confront. In the bestselling “The Anxious Generation,” social psychologist Jonathan Haidt looks into studies finding that the mental health of young people began to deteriorate in the 2010s, after decades of progress. According to Haidt, the main culprit is right before us: digital screens that have drawn kids away from “play-based” to “phone-based” childhoods. Although some critics challenged his findings, “The Anxious Generation” became a talking point and a catchphrase. Admirers ranged from Oprah Winfrey to Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee, who in a letter to state legislators advocated such “commonsense recommendations” from the book as banning phones in schools and keeping kids off social media until age 16. Bob Woodward books have been an election tradition for decades. “War,” the latest of his highly sourced Washington insider accounts, made news with its allegations that Donald Trump had been in frequent contact with Russian leader Vladimir Putin even while out of office and, while president, had sent Putin sophisticated COVID-19 test machines. Among Woodward’s other scoops: Putin seriously considered using nuclear weapons against Ukraine, and President Joe Biden blamed former President Barack Obama, under whom he served as vice president, for some of the problems with Russia. “Barack never took Putin seriously,” Woodward quoted Biden as saying. Former (and future) first lady Melania Trump, who gives few interviews and rarely discusses her private life, unexpectedly announced she was publishing a memoir: “Melania.” The publisher was unlikely for a former first lady — not one of the major New York houses, but Skyhorse, where authors include such controversial public figures as Woody Allen and Trump cabinet nominee Robert F. Kennedy Jr. And its success was at least a minor surprise. Melania Trump did little publicity for the book, and offered few revelations beyond posting a video expressing support for abortion rights — a break from one of the cornerstones of GOP policy. But “Melania” still sold hundreds of thousands of copies, many in the days following her husband’s election. Taylor Swift was more than a music story in 2024. Like “Melania,” the news about Taylor Swift’s self-published tie-in to her global tour isn’t so much the book itself, but that it exists. And how well it sold. As she did with the “Eras” concert film, Swift bypassed the established industry and worked directly with a distributor: Target offered “The Eras Tour Book” exclusively. According to Circana, the “Eras” book sold more than 800,000 copies just in its opening week, an astonishing number for a publication unavailable through Amazon.com and other traditional retailers. No new book in 2024 had a better debut. Midnight book parties are supposed to be for “Harry Potter” and other fantasy series, but this fall, more than 100 stores stayed open late to welcome one of the year’s literary events: Sally Rooney’s “Intermezzo.” The Irish author’s fourth novel centers on two brothers, their grief over the death of their father, their very different career paths and their very unsettled love lives. “Intermezzo” was also a book about chess: “You have to read a lot of opening theory — that’s the beginning of a game, the first moves,” one of the brothers explains. “And you’re learning all this for what? Just to get an okay position in the middle game and try to play some decent chess. Which most of the time I can’t do anyway.” Lisa Marie Presley had been working on a memoir at the time of her death , in 2023, and daughter Riley Keough had agreed to help her complete it. “From Here to the Great Unknown” is Lisa Marie’s account of her father, Elvis Presley, and the sagas of of her adult life, notably her marriage to Michael Jackson and the death of son Benjamin Keough. To the end, she was haunted by the loss of Elvis, just 42 when he collapsed and died at his Graceland home while young Lisa Marie was asleep. “She would listen to his music alone, if she was drunk, and cry,” Keough, during an interview with Winfrey, said of her mother. Meanwhile, Cher released the first of two planned memoirs titled “Cher” — no further introduction required. Covering her life from birth to the end of the 1970s, she focuses on her ill-fated marriage to Sonny Bono, remembering him as a gifted entertainer and businessman who helped her believe in herself while turning out to be unfaithful, erratic, controlling and so greedy that he kept all the couple’s earnings for himself. Unsure of whether to leave or stay, she consulted a very famous divorcee, Lucille Ball, who reportedly encouraged her: “F— him, you’re the one with the talent.” A trend in recent years is to take famous novels from the past, and remove words or passages that might offend modern readers; an edition of “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” cuts the racist language from Mark Twain’s original text. In the most celebrated literary work of 2024, Percival Everett found a different way to take on Twain’s classic — write it from the perspective of the enslaved Jim. “James,” winner of the National Book Award, is a recasting in many ways. Everett suggests to us that the real Jim was nothing like the deferential figure known to millions of readers, but a savvy and learned man who concealed his intelligence from the whites around him, and even from Twain himself. Salman Rushdie’s first National Book Award nomination was for a memoir he wished he had no reason to write. In “Knife,” he recounts in full detail the horrifying attempt on his life in 2022, when an attendee rushed the stage during a literary event in western New York and stabbed him repeatedly, leaving with him a blinded eye and lasting nerve damage, but with a spirit surprisingly intact. “If you had told me that this was going to happen and how would I deal with it, I would not have been very optimistic about my chances,” he told The Associated Press last spring. “I’m still myself, you know, and I don’t feel other than myself. But there’s a little iron in the soul, I think.”Disgraced ex-lawmaker Anthony Weiner officially files to run for NY City Council years after sexting scandal
