SARCONE, PATRONE--NORTH SYRACUSE SEX OFFENDER CHARGED....
First Assistant United States Attorney John A. Sarcone III and Anthony Patrone, Acting Special Agent in Charge of the Buffalo Field Office of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), made the announcement.
.......First Assistant U.S. Attorney John A. Sarcone said, “As alleged, this defendant’s conduct is utterly indefensible. What is particularly troubling is that despite a prior conviction, New York’s increasingly soft‑on‑crime approach resulted in a probationary sentence that failed to deter him from allegedly reoffending. My office, together with our partners at HSI, remains steadfast in our commitment to identifying, investigating, and prosecuting alleged child predators to the fullest extent of the law. Flandera now faces a mandatory minimum of 15 years in federal prison for his alleged actions and will answer for these allegations in federal court.” MORE AT Northern District of New York | North Syracuse Sex Offender Charged with Receiving Child Pornography | United States Department of Justice

FAUCI IN THE NEWS, ASSORTED SOURCES, GOOGLE AI AS WELL
Dr. Anthony Fauci just refused a private transcribed interview with Sen. Ron Johnson's subcommittee. The same week, a former ABC News correspondent revealed that the network gutted a 2021 Wuhan lab leak investigation after the script was sent to Fauci for review.......
This was not a conservative activist speaking. Moran is a longtime network journalist. His account directly undercuts years of media insistence that questions about the lab were fringe conspiracy theories while Fauci and allies worked to shut them down.
These latest refusals and revelations sit atop a mountain of prior evidence already documented.
Secret texts recovered from Fauci's government iPhone showed him privately warning in January 2021 that the second COVID vaccine dose "theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester" because of cytokine storms and fever. Publicly, he and other officials pushed the shots for pregnant women with no such caveats.https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/fauci-hiding-abc-censorship-bombshell-explodes

Context of the Broader Investigation
This standoff follows a highly contentious period between Dr. Fauci and Republican-led Senate panels investigating the pandemic response: [1, 2]The July 29 Hearing: Dr. Fauci previously appeared under a compelled subpoena before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. During that hearing, he asserted his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination more than 100 times, declining to answer questions regarding COVID-19 origins and policies on the advice of his counsel. [1, 2, 3]
Contempt of Congress: Because of his refusal to answer questions during the July 29 hearing, a Republican-led Senate panel voted to advance a measure holding Dr. Fauci in contempt of Congress. Sen. Rand Paul has also officially recommended that the Justice Department pursue criminal contempt charges. [1, 2, 3]

FAUCI IN THE NEWS--REFUSED SENATE APPEARANCE INVOKING FIFTH AMENDMENT MORE THAN 100 TIMES IN COVID PROBE
Dr. Anthony Fauci on Friday declined a request to voluntarily appear before a second Senate panel, opening another front in Republicans’ investigations into the former public health official’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.An attorney for Fauci rejected the request from Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., chairman of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, arguing that compelling Fauci to testify again after his contentious July 29 Senate hearing would “impermissibly harass or degrade Dr. Fauci for political purposes.” MORE AT Fauci refuses Senate appearance after invoking Fifth Amendment more than 100 times in COVID probe
