How to write a proper entertainment piece under the guise of journalism in 2019:
“U.S. victims in Mexico massacre were tied to family with a long history of violence.”
all cats are mammals, therefore the cartel kills all cats.
“U.S. victims in Mexico massacre were tied to family with a long history of violence.”
Some of the victims shared the last name LeBaron. They were related to a prominent fundamentalist Mormon family by the same name, said Daniel LeBaron, a cousin of one of the victims, Rhonita Maria Miller. Daniel LeBaron lives in Colonia LeBaron in Chihuahua state, a community established by fundamentalist Mormons in 1944 that has close ties to the LeBarons of Bavispe.
The LeBarons are among “a handful of major groups of fundamentalists,” said Patrick Mason, a historian of Mormonism at Utah State University. But, he added: “The LeBaron name in recent decades has been most often linked to violence. Unfortunately, this incident only adds to that association.”
The family is perhaps best known for a series of killings perpetrated in the 1970s and 1980s, in both Mexico and the United States, by Ervil LeBaron — once called the “Mormon Manson” — and a group of his followers.

Two men have been charged with distributing phony sample ballots in Marion, Ohio.
Marion County Republican Party official John Matthews and Robert Landon, the GOP candidate for Marion city auditor broke the law by distributing campaign handouts designed to look like sample ballots, reports ABC 6 News.
Landon faces a second charge of imitating the board of elections.
Under the law, a resident of Ohio could face up to six months in jail and be forced to pay up to a $1,000 fine for this offense.

“We’ve seen low crop prices, low livestock prices for a number of years now,” said chief economist John Newton. “On the back, now, of that we have the trade war where agriculture’s been unfairly retaliated against.”

A lot of these sentences were written a hundred or more years ago, and haven't been revised. But yeah, I still find stuff like "A fine of not more than one hundred dollars, and / or ten years in prison."
