NEW: A worker at an Arizona shelter for immigrant kids is facing federal charges that he sexually assaulted eight teenage boys there. He's the third Southwest Key employee to be arrested in Arizona on sex assault charges that we know of.

azcentral.com/story/news/loc…
The boys were in the custody of the Office of Refugee Resettlement, a government agency that hired Southwest Key to house immigrant kids who are being detained without their parents.
The agent who investigated the case said in a court filing the "age of these individuals, their separation from parents and relatives, and the hazards of the journey they take make unaccompanied alien children especially vulnerable to human trafficking, exploitation and abuse."
Here's the indictment. The worker, Levian Pacheco, is scheduled to go on trial Aug. 28 in federal court in Phoenix. documentcloud.org/documents/4631…
Here's the story, with @agnel88_philip -> azcentral.com/story/news/loc…

There's now a not-quite-so-secret D.C. Cir. opinion in the mystery Mueller grand jury case.
Whoever the mystery company is, it's been ordered to pay $50,000 a day in fines until it complies with the grand jury subpoena. But the accrual is stayed while appeals are pending.
Whatever the mystery company is, it's conducting "general commercial activity in the U.S."

Lawyers for one of the Russian companies charged over election meddling continue to file peevish things in court, this time about how unhappy the judge seemed to be about previous peevish filings ->
The lawyers say they've been getting threats ever since the judge faulted them for unprofessional behavior. Some were "whipped into their frenzy by a cable television entertainer unknown to undersigned counsel named Rachel @Maddow."
Here's the filing -> documentcloud.org/documents/5677…

Paul Manafort's lawyers acknowledge that he failed to tell investigators about some conversations with Konstantin Kilimnik, who the FBI has linked to Russian intelligence. His lawyers said they "happened during a period when Mr. Manafort was managing a U.S. presidential campaign"
Bottom line from Manafort's lawyers: They don't want a hearing on whether he breached his plea agreement, though they say he didn't lie to investigators. The want to leave the issues for the court staff that'll prepare his pre-sentence report.

NEW: DOJ inspector general's office released a report finding a now-former senior DOJ official sexually assaulted and sexually harassed women working for him — no criminal prosecution, the official retired, he isn't named oig.justice.gov/reports/2018/f…
STORY: A new inspector general report says investigators "substantiated" allegations that a now-retired senior DOJ official sexually assaulted and sexually harassed women working below him — the official is not named and was not prosecuted buzzfeednews.com/article/zoetil…
The inspector general's office does not identify officials who it finds committed misconduct in these short investigative summaries. OIG generally releases full reports via FOIA, but sometimes still redacts names. BuzzFeed is in court challenging this: law360.com/articles/97508…

Ok. So I just watched that BBC Documentary "Three Girls" - going over what happened with the grooming gang in Rochdale.

At the end of it, they list off a bunch of places where grooming gang situations have sprung up (pic related).
For the hell of it, I wanna see what I can dig up in terms of news reports for all these. Make an informative thread here about it. It'll take some time, but it seems like it could be useful.
