(CNN) — The Air National Guardsman who is accused of posting a trove of classified documents to social media was repeatedly warned by his superiors in the Air Force over his mishandling of classified documents, prosecutors say.In court documents arguing for Jack Teixeira’s continued detention, prosecutors said that the 21-year-old’s “willful disregard” of his obligation to protect classified information has become more apparent in the weeks since he last appeared in court.“In particular, the Defendant’s disclosures (and associated boasting) continued even after being admonished by his superiors on two separate occasions — once in September 2022 and once in October 2022 — amid concerning actions that the Defendant took related to classified information,” prosecutors wrote.The new revelations come days before a federal magistrate judge in Massachusetts is slated to decide whether Teixeira will remain behind bars while he awaits trial. Teixeira’s defense lawyers have asked for the...Red Sox notebook: Middle infield under microscope as visit to Xander Bogaerts looms

After Wednesday night’s series finale against the Seattle Mariners, the Red Sox head out on a lengthy road trip that will keep them out west until after Memorial Day weekend.First up? A visit to an old friend.Over the weekend, the Red Sox will have to contend with the shortstop who played more games for them than any other in franchise history.After 10 seasons in the majors, 1,264 regular-season games, two championships, and a slew of personal achievements, Xander Bogaerts opted out of his contract last fall, became a free agent, and signed an 11-year, $280 million deal with the San Diego Padres.Over 42 games with the first non-Red Sox team of his professional career, Bogaerts has collected 42 hits, including seven doubles, six home runs, 25 runs and 15 RBI. He’s also stolen four bases, drawn 22 walks and only struck out 29 times.Meanwhile, Boston’s middle infield is a hodgepodge, cobbled together, and decidedly less durable than it was during the Bogaerts era.

A request pending approval from Mayor Michelle Wu would give civil rights icon Malcolm X the recognition that city councilors say he deserves.The City Council on Wednesday unanimously supported a resolution to make May 19, Malcolm X’s birthday, a municipal holiday in Boston for residents to commemorate his legacy.“For me and for many of my close friends, Malcolm X represents so much more,” said Councilor Tania Fernandes Anderson, who sponsored the resolution. “He was a man of great depth who embodied values of selflessness, of love, of patience and of passion for humanity … I look up to him as a symbol of hope.”Malcolm X, born Malcolm Little, and his older sister Ella Collins in the early 1940s moved to Roxbury, where they lived for years at 72 Dale St., across from what is now recognized as Malcolm X Park.Their residence, now called the Malcolm X – Ella Little Collins House, has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2021, and the resolution seeks to re...Divided Boston City Council considering anti-bullying policy

Amid rising tensions, Boston City Council President Ed Flynn recommended that the body implement a no-tolerance policy for bullying in the workplace.Months of heated discussions between councilors on opposite sides of a fraught redistricting process, along with reports that council staffers were mistreated, led to the proposal, several councilors suggested on Wednesday.“It’s critical that we treat, as councilors, our staff with respect, and central staff as well with respect,” Flynn said at a City Council meeting. “We should have had this policy in place 30 years ago, but I’m going to get this implemented before I leave as president.”The “policy on workplace bullying” would apply to all employees of the City Council, including councilors, their individual staff, and central office employees. Violators would be disciplined, “up to and including termination,” the document states.“Boston City Council defines bullying as intentional, persistent, malicious, unwelcome, severe or pervasive...Mass. Air National Guard scolded Jack Teixeira multiple times for copying classified info before arrest

Massachusetts Air National Guard officials scolded a 21-year-old service member accused of leaking classified government documents multiple times in 2022 for copying sensitive information that he was not supposed to be viewing, according to new court filings.Prosecutors and lawyers for Jack Teixeira filed new arguments Wednesday ahead of a Friday court hearing in Worcester where a magistrate judge is expected to decide whether Teixeira should remain behind bars for the foreseeable future.Government lawyers said Teixeira used a top-secret security clearance he obtained while working at Joint Base Cape Cod to illegally leak government documents online. And they also argue Teixeira should remain detained because he continued to look at and copy classified information even after he was reprimanded by his superiors.A redacted letter dated September 2022 from a Massachusetts Air National Guard master sergeant says they were “made aware” that Teixeira had been “observed taking notes on cla...Campaign spending on childcare may be possible under proposed law

Legislation filed by state lawmakers, if approved, would allow politicians to use campaign funds to cover the cost of childcare while running for office and prevent foreign owned companies from spending on Massachusetts politics.The Joint Committee on Elections heard testimony from their colleagues and advocates Wednesday on the worth of about two dozen bills, several of which would change the law so that state politicians can use their campaign donations to cover the cost of daycare.“During my run for Congress I was and still am the primary caretaker for my two daughters,” Jamie Zahlaway Belsito, a former state representative and congressional candidate, told lawmakers. “There were moments on my campaign where there was no help to watch my children.”According to data provided by the U.S. Department of Labor, the cost of daycare in some Massachusetts municipalities is as high as it is anywhere in the country, with families paying upwards of $26,000 per year for childcare.Too often, ...Students stage ‘die-in’ in Dorchester, advocating against community violence

Dozens of students left their classrooms to lay still in the Dorchester intersection of Columbia Road and Washington Street on Wednesday afternoon — a striking imitation of death meant to draw attention to the looming threat of violence in their communities.“This die-in was done so we can grab your attention,” 15-year-old Brooke High School student Aniyah said in a speech to a crowd gathered. “We don’t want to keep losing our community members to violence. It could be me. It could be you. It could be any of us.”The “Die-In” protest, organized by Teen Empowerment Boston and local teens, started around noon Wednesday with a walk-out from school and gathering at the intersection.Protestors laid in the street for about five minutes and marched through the road to nearby Fenelon St. Playground, hearing speeches and performances from teens and local nonprofit leaders.The idea for the die-in came out of conversations with over 300 teens from ...Latest news
