1. Many protest over Turner’s jail time

2. Former Stanford University swimmer Brock Turner is scheduled for release from jail in California on Friday after serving three months of a six-month sentence for sexually assaulting an unconscious woman. The case drew national attention after the woman's wrenching victim-impact statement went viral. The brevity of Turner's sentence triggered outrage against the judge and controversy over how the justice system treats sexual assault survivors. Many who are upset are expected to hold a rally outside of the jail where4 Turner is being held and released. While Turner's jail sentence will be finished, he must still complete three years of probation period as a sex offender when he returns to Ohio (where he is from). He will enter a sex offender management program for at least one year or as long as three.

Colin Kaepernick took a knee during the national anthem before Thursday's preseason NFL game and pledged to continue his protest over police brutality and racism in the US. The sixth-year 49ers quarterback said he opted to kneel rather than remaining seated as he did last week "to show more respect for men and women who fight for the country.” He was joined by his teammate, safety Eric Reid, who knelt beside the quarterback before the game between the San Francisco 49ers and San Diego Chargers. Kaepernick said he would continue to take a knee in future games. "As far as how long this goes, I'm not sure," he said in a post-game news conference. "I want to be able to affect change and I think there are a lot of other people who do as well.”
Millions of honeybees lie dead after being sprayed with an insecticide targeting Zika-carrying mosquitoes in South Carolina. One co-owner of Flowertown Bee Farm and Supply in Summerville, South Carolina, said she lost 46 beehives -- more than 3 million bees -- in mere minutes after the spraying began. She is going to have to destroy the hives, the honey, and equipment because it is all contaminated. It's a situation that could be repeated across the country as cases of Zika continue to rise and local mosquito control districts struggle to protect their residents and ease local fears.
