(Newser) – A Texas police sergeant has filed a federal lawsuit against the leaders of the Black Lives Matter movement and President Obama, among others, for "igniting a race war." The Dallas Morning News reports Sgt. Demetrick Pennie, a 17-year veteran of law enforcement and president of the Dallas Fallen Officer Foundation, filed the lawsuit Friday seeking more than $500 million in damages. In addition to Black Lives Matter and the president, the lawsuit names Hillary Clinton, George Soros, Rev. Al Sharpton, the New Black Panthers Party, and more. The lawsuit claims they "have repeatedly incited their supporters and others to engage in threats of and attacks to cause serious bodily injury or death upon police officers."


In a press release that makes mention of Colin Kaepernick refusing to stand for the "Pledge of Allegiance," Pennie's lawyer, Larry Klayman, accuses the named parties of "igniting a race war that will ultimately totally destroy the freedoms that our Founding Fathers bequeathed to us." He hopes the lawsuit will teach the country a lesson that law enforcement must be respected. "Sgt. Pennie and I feel duty-bound to put ourselves forward to seek an end to the incitement of violence against law enforcement," Klayman says in the press release.

(Newser) – Belgium has euthanized a child since becoming the first country to eliminate age restrictions for euthanasia two years ago, CNN reports. According to the BBC, the 17-year-old was in "unbearable physical pain" and was euthanized in the past week. The teen had an incurable disease and requested euthanasia. No other information was provided. The teen's death was announced Saturday, Reuters reports.


Belgium legalized euthanasia for people with "constant and unbearable physical or mental suffering that cannot be alleviated" in 2002. It expanded its euthanasia law to cover all children under the age of 18 in 2014. In order to be euthanized, children must be able to understand what it means and get consent from their parent or guardian and "death must be expected in the near future." Belgium is the only country in the world that allows euthanasia without age restriction. The Netherlands allows it for children older than 12.

(NEWSER)  A newly discovered punctuation error regarding a piece of evidence may help British police zero in on accomplices in a notorious murder now 23 years old. The case is that of Stephen Lawrence, a black teenager beaten to death in 1993 as he stood at a bus stop. Two white men are serving time for the murder, but police think three or four others took part in the attack. Now the leather strap of a bag found at the scene has provided a DNA sample from a woman, and if police can track her down, it could lead to more arrests, reports the Telegraph. Authorities think the strap was part of a homemade weapon used to kill Lawrence—perhaps with the head of a hammer attached—but it was disregarded for years after being mistakenly cataloged as having been found 300 feet from the body.
