Another was released Mon- day and three more on Wednesday, the organiza- tion said. Padilla’s attorneys told a news conference Wednesday her 6-year-old son remains in federal custody in New York, and it’s unclear when the government will release him to her. They declined to provide further details about Padilla’s background, citing the sensitivity of her asylum case. “Now that I’m free, I don’t understand why they’re not returning him, or why I can’t go pick him up,” Padilla said. “He’s starting to get restless, because he expects me to go to get him, but that hasn’t happened and we don’t know when it will. The last time we spoke, the call ended in tears.” SEATTLE — Some asy- lum-seeking parents who have been detained in Wash- ington state after being sep- arated from their children have started to be released from custody, advocates said Wednesday, but it remains unclear when they might see their sons or daughters again. The Northwest Immi- grant Rights Project in Seattle said it knows of 55 people detained at the U.S.-Mexico border before being separated from their children and transferred to Washington under President Donald Trump’s zero-toler- ance policy.

Police said Wednesday that 37-year-old Samuel Harris Corbett was arrested on charges of intimidation, menacing, disorderly con- duct and harassment after the Monday incident. Authorities say the bystanders kept Corbett away from the teenager, who took shelter in a nearby AM/PM store until police arrived. A victim’s advocate is in contact with the teen and her family.

The Oregonian/Oregon- Live found that one in two arrests made by Portland police was of a homeless individual while less than 3 percent of city residents are considered homeless. Constantin Severe, direc- tor of the Independent Police Review, says Police Chief Danielle Outlaw directed the police bureau to ask the oversight agency to conduct an investigation based on the newspaper’s reporting. A police spokesman says the chief requested the review after the Ameri- can Civil Liberties Union of Oregon called on the city to inquire about profiling. Mayor Ted Wheeler says he wants to know how The East Oregonian works hard to be accurate and sincerely regrets any errors. If you notice a mistake in the paper, please call 541-966-0818.

The Oregonian/Ore- gonLive reported Tues- day that Curtis Clint Wil- liams is the first defendant in Multnomah County to be found guilty by jury since police and prosecutors have started working on clearing the backlog of thousands of untested sexual assault kits. Williams was accused of raping a 19-year-old woman in 2011 after meet- ing her near a TriMet ticket machine. The woman told police Williams invited her to his apartment where he raped her. Her sexual assault exam- ination kit was tested in 2011 and the DNA on the kit matched Williams. Williams is scheduled to go to trial for a second attack later this month. Police oversight agency probes Portland arrests of homeless the families this week to meet the first of two dead- lines set by a federal judge in San Diego who ordered thousands of children be given back to their parents. Scores of children sepa- rated from their families at the border were sent to gov- ernment-contracted shelters or foster care hundreds of miles away from where their parents were detained. Padilla’s son, Jelsin, has been in foster care in New York — where exactly is unclear, but Sanchez said she was told the home is about a 20-minute drive from the Bronx, where he has been attending school at the Cayuga Center for trou- bled youth. Padilla is a named plain- tiff in a class-action lawsuit the Northwest Immigrant Rights Project has filed challenging the family sep- arations. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has declined to comment on her case. One of her attorneys, Leta Sanchez, said author- ities have been demanding that Padilla go through sev- eral hoops before she and the boy are reunited. Those include a background check and resubmitting finger- prints, even though immi- gration officials have repeat- edly taken her fingerprints since her detention. The administration has been scrambling to reunify Man sentenced to prison after 2011 kit linked him to rape SALEM (AP) — Ore- gon State Police arrested a man accused of threatening to kill people at Oregon Lot- tery headquarters. The agency said an email sent to the lottery office in Salem on Tuesday con- tained a threat to shoot peo- ple. Within hours, detec- tives arrested 42-year-old Jason Ouellette at his home in Lebanon, Oregon. Police spokeswoman Mindy McCartt said Ouel- lette was “recently unlucky at the lottery,” and did not target specific employees in the email. Police have to say if they seized firearms at his home. He was charged with menacing — a misdemeanor — and released from jail because of overcrowding. It was not immediately known if he has retained an attorney or will be appointed one at his first court appearance. Yolany Padilla, an asylum seeker separated from her 6-year-old son as part of the Trump Administration’s “zero tolerance” policy, smiles as she talks about her child at a news conference Wednesday in Seattle. Padilla was released on bond from the Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma on July 6. Her son is in federal custody in New York. By GENE JOHNSON Associated Press many of the arrests were in response to complaints as opposed to interactions started by officers. 9 5 2 8 a.m. 10 a.m. Noon 2 p.m. 4 p.m. 6 p.m. 0-2, Low 3-5, Moderate 6-7, High; 8-10, Very High; 11+, Extreme The higher the AccuWeather.com UV Index™ num- ber, the greater the need for eye and skin protection.
