COLUMBIA, S.C (AP) — A South Carolina jury on Monday found a store owner not guilty of murder in the 2023 shooting of a Black 14-year-old.
The jury returned the verdict for Chikei Rick Chow. Chow, 61, who is Asian, shot Cyrus Carmack-Belton in the back after chasing him from his convenience store in Columbia. He maintained he acted to defend his son.
The killing sent waves of anguish and grief through the African American community in Richland County, where nearly half the population is Black.
After the verdict was read, sobs and cries of distress could be heard coming from Carmack-Belton’s family seated in the gallery. Chow sat silently frozen before slowly bowing his head onto his interlocked hands.
Defense lawyer Jack Swerling said they're very pleased with the verdict but also feel for Carmack-Belton's family.

The NFL landscape was shaken up considerably on June 1, as multiple blockbuster trades reshaped the league's power structure.
It started when the Los Angeles Rams acquired two-time Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett in a trade with the Cleveland Browns.
Garrett – who set an NFL record with 23 sacks in 2025 – will provide the Rams a big-time boost to an already great pass rush that ranked fifth in pressure rate last season, per the NFL's Next Gen Stats.
Before the Garrett trade, most sportsbooks viewed the Rams and the reigning Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks as the co-favorites to hoist the Lombardi Trophy following the 2026 NFL season. After it, the Rams are in the pole position as clear-cut favorites to win Super Bowl 61.
That said, the Rams weren't the only Super Bowl contender to bolster their roster. The reigning AFC champion New England Patriots also added a top-tier talent to their roster, acquiring three-time Pro Bowler A.J. Brown in a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has been invited to testify before Congress as the league faces increasing federal scrutiny about its broadcast deals and its recent practice of airing games on paywalled streaming services.
Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, sent a letter to the commissioner on Monday requesting his appearance at a hearing on June 10 examining the league's TV deals and their compliance with the Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961.
The 65-year-old law grants professional sports leagues limited antitrust immunity, allowing them to pool their media rights and negotiate as a single entity while protecting them from antitrust lawsuits.
The law applies only to broadcast networks. Courts have ruled in the past that it does not apply to other media, including cable, satellite and streaming. There has been bipartisan sentiment in favor of updating the law, and president Donald Trump has been among the critics of the NFL's embrace of streaming.
According to Jordan's letter, the hearing next week will “examine the extent to which the antitrust exemption created by the SBA has been used by the professional sports leagues to harm consumers and whether potential legislative remedies may be needed to address that harm.”

Starship launch blasted off on Friday (May 22) from **** eX's Starbase test site in South Texas, at 6:30 p.m. EDT (5:30 p.m. local time or 2230 GMT). The massive ship made a sojourn in suborbital **** e before both the Starship Super Heavy booster and its Ship upper stage made fiery splashdowns to conclude the mission.
But while the trip itself was a repeat of previous flights, and the 12th overall for the Starship program, the ship was new. **** eX's newest version of Starship, standing at 408 feet or 124 meters tall, is larger and more powerful than any iteration before it.
Some of the key upgrades include a new fuel transfer tube; a faster PEZ deployment system for future satellites; a more powerful Raptor Engine (39 of these across the two stages); three grid fins for reentry-directing instead of four; and a reusable "hot stage ring" lying at the intersection of Super Heavy and Ship.

Saugatucks Neave Rewa keeps record-breaking career going, lands college spot
SAUGATUCK - Neave Rewa sets a record nearly every time she steps on the pitch.
The Saugatuck soccer senior broke the school record for career goals last year and it grows every time the ball hits the back of the net.
"The biggest thing is she is so determined to achieve what she wants to achieve. When she loses a ball, her whole body changes and you know she is going to get it back," Saugatuck coach Neal Phillips said. "This had to be tough on her to switch coaches and systems as a senior and she is still thriving."
More: Saugatuck's Neave Rewa claims state skiing championship in slalom
Rewa said part of that stems from learning from older players in the program that has become one of the best small-school programs in West Michigan.

Strategy (MSTR) Buys $43 Million More Bitcoin After Saylor Defends Potential BTC...
Strategy added 535 more BTC for $43 million days after Michael Saylor said the company may consider selling part of its bitcoin holdings for the first time.
Strategy (NASDAQ: MSTR) purchased 535 bitcoin for approximately $43.0 million at an average price of $80,340 per coin, the company disclosed Monday in a Form 8-K filing. The firm now holds 818,869 BTC, acquired for roughly $61.86 billion at an average cost of $75,540 per bitcoin, and has recorded a bitcoin yield of 9.4% year-to-date in 2026.
The acquisition was funded through $0.1 million raised via Strategy’s STRC ATM program and $42.9 million from its MSTR ATM offering.
The purchase comes six days after executive chairman Michael Saylor told investors on the company’s Q1 earnings call that Strategy was prepared to sell a portion of its bitcoin holdings for the first time. This statement drew immediate scrutiny from a market that had long viewed the company’s accumulation strategy as one-directional.
Saylor moved to contain the narrative over the weekend. In a podcast interview, he said that for every bitcoin sold, the company would buy 10 to 20 more. “You should be a net accumulator of bitcoin,” he said. “You want to end every year with more bitcoin than you started.” Monday’s purchase suggests the buying has not slowed.

On the surface, elevated Bitcoin dominance signals cryptocurrency market participants are favoring that ****** et over its peers, but that doesn’t necessarily mean bad news for altcoins and the CoinShares Altcoins ETF (DIME). Examining the details more closely matters and upon doing that, market participants may find that DIME is worth considering over the near-term.
“This rise matters because investors still prefer Bitcoin’s relative strength while broader market confidence remains fragile. However, beneath this dominance surge, altcoins slowly began stabilizing after months of sustained pressure,” reported AMB Crypto.
Translation: Bitcoin can act as a rising tide that lifts all sails across the cryptocurrency landscape and while the percentage gains won’t be uniform, Bitcoin strength can matriculate to other digital ****** ets, potentially benefiting the actively managed DIME in the process.
Experienced altcoin investors know that births of new altcoin seasons take time and that at this point in the cycle, even baby steps are appreciated. With that in mind, some positive incremental signs are emerging that may be supportive of DIME upside.

NFL pushes deeper into streaming as Netflix lands Australia game amid FCC, DOJ...
The Justice Department is probing the NFL's exclusive streaming deals amidst fan frustration over fragmented and paid access. FCC Chairman Brendan Carr questions if the league should retain its special antitrust exemption, initially established by the 1961 Sports Broadcasting Act. Fox News contributor Jonathan Turley suggests Congress examine the NFL's monopoly structure, highlighting their $25 billion annual revenue and rising fan costs.
The recent pushback against the NFL funneling games to streaming carriers includes federal oversight of the matter, but that isn't stopping the league from doing more — at least not if a new deal with Netflix to stream the first game ever played in Australia is a measure.
The NFL and Netflix have an agreement in place to televise the San Francisco 49ers versus the Los Angeles Rams on Sept. 10, according to The Athletic. A league source told OutKick the deal is not finalized, but that was the direction talks were headed.
The first game of the 2026 NFL season will be televised by NBC on Wednesday, Sept. 9 between the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks and an opponent not yet announced. The NFL is expected to release its full schedule later this month.

Titans' Wan'Dale Robinson says Carnell Tate will have rookie duties
The 2026 free agency frenzy is essentially over. The 2026 NFL Draft is in the rear-view mirror. The Tennessee ******* ans held their rookie minicamp last weekend, and now the players can slow down and enjoy the moment. The rookies will especially need some time to process everything that's happened over the last few months before they can truly appreciate where they are.
They'll have to lean on that appreciation a lot in their first year. Not only do they have the stress of learning a new system, learning a new city, learning a new locker room, and going through the transition to become a pro, but they'll have their "rookie duties" to handle, too. Even first-round draft pick Carnell Tate will have duties to handle.
"He's just like everybody else. Those rookie dinners and things like that, but really excited about him. I think he's going to elevate our offense and do great things, so, [I'm] ready to work with him," Wan'Dale Robinson says.
An off-camera voice reminds Robinson that he's just signed a new contract and wonders if he's still going to make Tate foot the bill.
"Oh yeah, he's gonna have his rookie duties," Robinson replies, laughing. He continues, "I don't care if I just got a new deal, he just got a new deal, too!"

Why Patrick Mahomes may be the reason for the delay in NFL finalizing schedule...
Why Patrick Mahomes may be the reason for the delay in NFL finalizing schedule release date originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The NFL will release its schedule for the 2026 season this month, but the exact date of the schedule release may be delayed.
The league usually weighs a variety of factors for making its schedule, including the status of its best players. As Patrick Mahomes is still recovering from knee surgery, his timetable is the most impactful of any player who could begin the year on the sideline.
With Mahomes' return timeline still a question, the league could use Mahomes' injury as a reason why it delays when it releases the schedule for the season. So, fans who are itching to see who their teams will play first this year could be disappointed.
Here's how Patrick Mahomes is impacting the schedule release.

In the fast-growing web3 and cryptocurrency ****** e, new projects frequently emerge amid waves of excitement and online buzz. Kaspa is the latest example, drawing significant attention across platforms like X and other social channels. Promoters and advocates highlight Kaspa‘s so-called innovative features, positioning it as a superior alternative to established leaders.
Yet this pattern is hardly novel in the web3 ecosystem. For years, ambitious initiatives have launched with bold claims of outperforming Bitcoin, the original and most dominant digital ****** et.
Despite the enthusiasm, history shows that such challengers often struggle to sustain momentum.

NFL Power Rankings after the 2026 NFL Draft
The NFL offseason always brings optimism, but nothing reshapes the league quite like the draft. With the 2026 NFL Draft now in the books, every team has added new talent, filled key needs, and, at least on paper, taken a step forward. From franchise-altering picks at the top to potential steals in the later rounds, the league’s landscape has already begun to shift.
But not all improvements are created equal. Some teams look ready to contend immediately. Others are still building. And a few may have taken a step back. With that in mind, here are the NFL power rankings following the 2026 NFL Draft, as we sort through the hype, the fits, and what it all means heading into the season.
MORE: NFL Draft grades for biggest winners and losers
32) Miami Dolphins. Drafted like they’re trying to patch structural leaks up front and in the middle, but they still didn’t add enough proven firepower to scare anyone on Sundays.
31) Arizona Cardinals. Leaned hard into skill talent and identity, but the draft didn’t do enough to fix the adult problems – protection consistency, front-seven teeth, and a secondary that can survive real quarterbacks.

Record US drought sparks worries about fires, water supply and food prices
Drought in the contiguous United States has reached record levels for this time of year, weather data shows. Meteorologists said it's a bad sign for the upcoming wildfire season, food prices and western water issues.
More than 61% of the Lower 48 states is in moderate to exceptional drought — including 97% of the Southeast and two-thirds of the West — according to the U.S. Drought Monitor. It's the highest levels for this time of year since the drought monitor began in 2000.
