​According to court documents, Banks sexually abused his nine-month-old biological daughter, created digital videos of the abuse, and traded several of the images with someone he met in an online room dedicated to sexually abusing animals. 

Upon his release from prison, Banks is subject to 10 years of supervised release and is required to register with state sex offender registries and comply with special sex offender conditions.

The cause of this pandemic and how to prevent it can be only learnt through transparency.

The U.S. government does not know exactly where, when, or how the COVID-19 virus—known as SARS-CoV-2—was transmitted initially to humans.

It has not determined whether the outbreak began through contact with infected animals or was the result of an accident at a laboratory in Wuhan, China.

Scientists in China have researched animal-derived coronaviruses under conditions that increased the risk for accidental and potentially unwitting exposure.

China's obsession with secrecy and control comes at the expense of public health in China and around the world.

Three elements about COVID-19’s origin  deserve greater scrutiny:

Illnesses inside the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV).

Several researchers inside the WIV became sick in autumn 2019, which made US government  to believe that ​before the first identified case of the outbreak and WIV senior researcher Shi Zhengli’s public claim that there was “zero infection” among the WIV’s staff and students of SARS-CoV-2 or SARS-related viruses.

Independent journalists, investigators, and global health authorities have been prevented by CCP  from interviewing researchers at the WIV, including those who were ill in the fall of 2019.

 Research at the WIV:

Starting in at least 2016 – and with no indication of a stop prior to the COVID-19 outbreak – WIV researchers conducted experiments involving RaTG13, the bat coronavirus identified by the WIV in January 2020 as its closest sample to SARS-CoV-2 (96.2% similar). 

The WIV has a published record of conducting “gain-of-function” research to engineer chimeric viruses. But the WIV has not been transparent or consistent about its record of studying viruses most similar to the COVID-19 virus, including “RaTG13,” which it sampled from a cave in Yunnan Province in 2013 after several miners died of SARS-like illness.

Secret military activity at the WIV:

Secrecy and non-disclosure practice for Beijing. The United States and other donors who funded or collaborated on civilian research at the WIV have a right and obligation to determine whether any of our research funding was diverted to secret Chinese military projects at the WIV.

COVID-19’s origin in China is still hidden. Any credible investigation into the origin of COVID-19 demands complete, transparent access to the research labs in Wuhan, including their facilities, samples, personnel, and records.

It is the first known instance in Canada of police investigating a workplace-related COVID-19 death when Ariana Quesada, 16, lodged a formal complaint  on Jan 8 in High River, Alberta to  police to probe potential criminal negligence in the death of her father, Benito Quesada.

​In the largest workplace outbreak in Canada, nearly half of the workforce of 950 staff, including Benito Quesada at the Cargill plant tested positive for COVID-19 by early May.

Benito Quesada, a 51-year-old immigrant from Mexico supporting a wife and four children was hospitalized with COVID-19 in mid-April, where he died in May.

Slaughterhouses and meat-processing facilities were deemed essential by governments, as part of the national food supply chain.

Cargill continued operating until April 20, when it was shut down for two weeks because of the surging outbreak among its staff.

In an email statement on Saturday, Cargill spokesperson Daniel Sullivan said since the beginning of the pandemic, it has worked closely with provincial health and occupational health and safety officials.

"Maintaining a safe workplace has long been one of our core values, and we recognize that the well-being of our plant employees is integral to our business and to the continuity of the food supply chain throughout Canada," the statement read.

Included in the contraband seized were cell phones and chargers, prepaid SIM cards, THC concentrate, shatter, steroids, tobacco, marijuana, hashish, and rolling papers.  

The police have been notified investigating is being done by the institution.

CSC's heightening measures as well as its use of a number of tools used by the CSC with its   to prevent drugs from entering its institution include ion scanners and search of buildings, personal property, inmates and visitors using drug-detector dogs in order to help ensure a safe and secure environment for everyone.

CSC also partners with the police to take action against the culprits trying to introduce contraband into correctional institutions.

A telephone tip line for all federal institutions has been set up by the CSC to receive additional information about activities relating to security at CSC institutions related to drug use or trafficking that threaten the safety and security of visitors, inmates and staff members working at CSC institutions.

The toll-free number, 1‑866‑780‑3784, helps ensure that the information shared is protected and that callers remain anonymous.

A 90-second video, apparently recorded by a man, who rang the bell of the Ottawa Centre Catherine's Street office around 10:30 a.m. ET Thursday, was  posted to social media over the weekend. 

When the man said to the female employee who opened the door that he wants to speak to McKenna, she  told him the office was closed to the public due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

It was then that the man began to utter verbal onslaughts, at one point calling McKenna a "c--t" before the woman shuts the door.

"This isn't an isolated incident. It's not just involving me, my staff members, my family. Too often there are incidents against politicians, often female politicians," McKenna said, relating the incident outside that same constituency office Aug 10 afternoon and suggested such incidents are more common than generally reported."
​
Earlier somebody had spray-painted the same word across an image of McKenna's face on the window of her campaign office, a few day after McKenna was re-elected last fall.

At that time, McKenna said such incidents would not prevent her from continuing in politics.

But on Aug 10 when a similar question was asked, she said if before she entered public office, she knew about the harassment and abuse politicians face, she might have thought twice about running.

She also added that she does not want good people to be discouraged from entering into politics.

"I do want good people to go into politics. I want the girls and women out there to think that they can go in and make a difference but not have to put up with this garbage."
