A Florida family that allegedly formed a faux church and made over $1 million by falsely selling toxic, industrial bleach as a miracle cure for HIV, cancer, COVID-19, and other diseases is now standing trial in Miami.
Mark Grenon, 65, his sons Jonathan, 37, Joseph, 35, and Jordan, 29, and their quasi-religious church, Genesis II Church of Health and Healing, based in Bradenton, are all facing federal criminal charges from 2020 of conspiring to defraud the US and selling misbranded drugs. Their trial began Monday.
After the charges were filed in 2020, Jonathan and Jordan Grenon were arrested in Bradenton, but Mark and Joseph fled to Colombia, where there were arrested by local authorities and extradited to the US. | |

Behind the simple but not-unappealing website of Brutman Labs, there are some surprising features and statistics. In a recent update posted to the site, it was revealed that the server behind the web destination has run for an impressive "2,500 hours of continuous runtime." However, probably far more eyebrow-raising is the fact that the web server is a 39-year-old IBM PCjr that's packing a 4.77 MHz CPU. | |

Officers working for Gov. Greg Abbott’s border security initiative have been ordered to push small children and nursing babies back into the Rio Grande, and have been told not to give water to asylum seekers even in extreme heat, according to an email from a Department of Public Safety trooper who described the actions as “inhumane.”
The July 3 account, reviewed by Hearst Newspapers, discloses several previously unreported incidents the trooper witnessed in Eagle Pass, where the state of Texas has strung miles of razor wire and deployed a wall of buoys in the Rio Grande.
According to the email, a pregnant woman having a miscarriage was found late last month caught in the wire, doubled over in pain. A four-year-old girl passed out from heat exhaustion after she tried to go through it and was pushed back by Texas National Guard soldiers. A teenager broke his leg trying to navigate the water around the wire and had to be carried by his father.
The email, which the trooper sent to a superior, suggests that Texas has set “traps” of razor wire-wrapped barrels in parts of the river with high water and low visibility. And it says the wire has increased the risk of drownings by forcing migrants into deeper stretches of the river.
The trooper called for a series of rigorous policy changes to improve safety for migrants, including removing the barrels and revoking the directive on withholding water. | |
