judge block: joe smith. you have to respect people's privacy so i use an acronym in his case was not unlike the other cases publicize. this was a child pornography case. it is such an interesting subject because they have man to me -- mandatory minimums, five years, 10, 15. and he was charged with a five-year mandatory minimum and i sentenced him to the five year mandatory minimum and then he made an application for me to reduce the sentence. that was a good example of a different type of criminal behavior which comes under the umbrella of all of these people who are incarcerated who petition for release. the next one, i think is a mafioso case, if i remember right. peter: that is correct. anthony russo, also convicted under ricoh. by the way, what exactly is ricoh? judge block: congress years ago passed to the racketeer corruption act called ricoh and it was designed to really deal with the mafia. the whole idea of ricoh, it allowed anybody who was part of an organization to be prosecuted for all of the mis

but 1st, to understand what it means to cross the border here, i'm heading into the desert to meet joe smith. he describes the challenges facing the migrants. the object is so it gets, it gets the tucson area and get out of here, right, the desert itself. so it doesn't work very well, where, where they have a choice of now is going across the mountains to avoid border patrol. they don't like the accessible areas you can't get through without a vehicle in the us. mexico crossing is the deadliest land route for refugees in the world with over 600 gates recorded in 2022. and the more remote the royce, the more dangerous it is. because it looks a little bit earlier. but usually they come from the places where they really don't understand their deserts, and they think there's one of the a stray and they think there's going to be a creek somewhere and they can't really get get water from. absolutely nothing here . right. but people are dying of starvation out here. there's dinosaurs. mm hm. what forces people to take these precarious routes, of course, is the famous will along the border with mexi

included the last initial, which, of course, raises some fears that not everyone is going to be joe smith and have a non-identifiable name. does this put a risk on their lives? >> it certainly puts a risk on their cover status if they're working undercover and their ability to work in the intelligence community or overseas. these are people who've worked for two years or less. and importantly, that means they don't have the same civil service protections as other officers who've served longer. why might the white house want their names? you might suspect it might be because it would be easier to fire them one day. so the cia did send those names over. and because this was an unclassified setting. and by the way, these names are going over to the office of personnel management, which is currently run by elon musk and his friends. they are not going to identify in an unclassified email the full names of people who might be working undercover. so the compromise the agency tried to reach was, we'll give you their first name and their last initial. this really just underscores how risky this w

our north america editor sarah smith reports from washington. in jerusalem joe inwood. statement he has put out says the israeli defense forces gaza, and that seems to be the way he's framing this — not in the way that much of the rest of the world has done it, as an attempt to force gazans to leave their homes he says in a statement that all palestinians, all people should have the freedom of exit and immigration, as is customary elsewhere in the world. another rather interesting part of this statement — false accusations and plots against israel, are legally to enter their territory. described the plan as bold and something worth considering. but reaction, you will be aware, around the rest of the world, very different. antonio guterres, warning the united states against from marco rubio and also the president's spokeswoman. i think more than wondering whether it will happen — i think they are saying... or said it would be, were it implemented. here in the middle east. line for many, many countries, including some of america's allies, as well. we have heard statements
