"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Fairhurst wrote last year that ICE's presence was \"deeply troubling because they impede the fundamental mission of our courts, which is to ensure due process and access for everyone, regardless of their immigration status.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sarah Mehta, a human rights researcher with the American Civil Liberties Union, said the new policy is useful for those seeking to understand ICE's self-imposed limits. But she added that it may have come too late to allay fears among those who feel ICE may target them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A lot of the damage has been done over the last year,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement issued Wednesday, San Francisco District Attorney George Gascón criticized civil immigration arrests at courthouses. The city's policies minimizing cooperation with federal immigration enforcement have made it a target for the Trump administration's campaign against so-called sanctuary cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I know it to be a fundamental truth that our neighborhoods are safer when people from all communities can work with law enforcement and come to our courthouses without fear that their immigration status will be used against them,\" Gascón said. \"Any policy that supports immigration agents making arrests in our courthouses serves as a deterrent to participation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE reaffirmed that a 2014 policy to avoid deportation arrests at \"\u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/ero/enforcement/sensitive-loc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sensitive locations\u003c/a>,\" including schools, day-care centers, hospitals, places of worship, funerals, weddings, rallies and public demonstrations, is still in place. Courthouses have never been part of that list.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Homan, ICE's acting director, has said metal detectors at courthouse entrances provide added safety for officers seeking to make arrests there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're not going to do it in the courtroom but to me it's safer,\" Homan said in an interview in November. \"It makes sense to arrest a criminal in a criminal courthouse.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post contains reporting by The Associated Press\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

It’s just led to a lot of costs but not a lot of results,” said Assemblyman Phil Ting, a San Francisco Democrat who chairs the Assembly’s budget committee.

California’s state prison population is about 130,000. The state’s incarceration rate had been higher than the national average in the past, but it has \u003ca href=\"http://www.ppic.org/wp-content/uploads/r-118mlr.pdf\">fallen sharply\u003c/a>: Last year California had 334 state inmates for every 100,000 residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Part of that dramatic decline was driven by a policy known as realignment, which after 2011 assigned the responsibility for new offenders determined to be less serious from state prisons to local jails or back into the community under supervision. Lawmakers made that major switch in 2011 after federal courts ruled California prisons were too overcrowded to provide inmates adequate health care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters promoted realignment as a way to keep former inmates from reoffending by shifting more responsibility to county officials, who theoretically would understand better than the state what programs their communities need.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a recent \u003ca href=\"http://www.ppic.org/wp-content/uploads/r_1217mbr.pdf\">study\u003c/a> by Bird and her colleagues found realignment had mixed effects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"t5aJeUpXsipBafy1hAPPPX4NVLzeb14M\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Recidivism rates didn’t change much after realignment, so everyone can breathe a sigh of relief that they didn’t go up dramatically,” Bird said. But she acknowledged that recidivism levels are still high and have been for a long time. “In the short run, we might need to spend a bit more money in order to have some long-run gains.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After realignment kicked in, voters approved two initiatives to further lower incarceration rates by reducing punishment for low-level offenders: Proposition 47 in 2014 and \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/proposition-57-criminal-sentencing/\">Proposition 57\u003c/a> in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But neither realignment nor the other changes have resulted in the crime reductions or savings supporters promised, said Sacramento County District Attorney Anne Marie Schubert.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 47, which lessened penalties for lower-level crimes, including some types of theft and illegal drug use, “wreaked havoc” in California, she said, citing what she described as “rampant” and underreported retail theft as evidence the punishments under the law are too lenient to deter crime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And although realignment successfully reduced the state prison population, it also placed new strain on counties. They’ve received several billion dollars to cover the increased costs to house and supervise more people, but critics say it still isn’t enough to fund needed rehabilitative services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need more resources,” Schubert said. “It’s not a cheap process to help get people back on track, but we have to be willing to invest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-11647147\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RECIDIVISM-graphic.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"819\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RECIDIVISM-graphic.png 550w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RECIDIVISM-graphic-160x238.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RECIDIVISM-graphic-240x357.png 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RECIDIVISM-graphic-375x558.png 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RECIDIVISM-graphic-520x774.png 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown proposes to spend about $12 billion—9 percent of the state’s general fund—for the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation in the fiscal year that begins in July.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The budget includes more than $130 million to fix roofs, remove mold and update other aspects of aging infrastructure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although it’s important for prison facilities to be maintained, money could be better spent on services for former inmates after they leave prison, said John Bauters of Californians for Safety and Justice, a group that advocates for criminal justice reform. The governor’s budget doesn’t make any “dramatic” changes to money spent on rehabilitation programs for inmates, which need to be matched by programs to help people when they re-enter society, Bauters said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve got so much money that is being spent right now on prison programs and the reality is that if we actually invest in proven prevention methods and rehabilitative programs, we won’t have the same need to spend that kind of money in the future,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Assemblyman Reggie Jones-Sawyer, who chairs the Assembly Public Safety Committee, also is advocating greater accountability—saying he’ll request a review of rehabilitation programs to ensure the state is investing in ones that work.

Sen. Jeff Stone blames realignment and other policy changes for what he characterizes as high crime rates in the state. “We are letting too many people out of jail and we aren’t putting enough people in jail or prison,” the Temecula Republican said. “We’re not holding people accountable for their crimes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between now and June, Brown and Democrats who run the Legislature will negotiate a final budget deal. Although the state is expecting a \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/california-sitting-surplus-dont-expect-refund/\">$6 billion surplus\u003c/a> this year, Brown has repeated his usual caution to Democratic lawmakers, who typically push for more spending, to save much of that money for a future recession.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Ting says he sees a key opportunity this year to invest in efforts to stop recidivism. It’s Brown’s final year in office and therefore his last chance to solidify the criminal justice policy changes he oversaw.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our hope is that we can find significant common ground in this area,” Ting said. “We want to ensure that every individual who’s in the system, we’re doing everything possible to work with them so they don’t come back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Sophia Bollag is a contributing writer to \u003c/em>\u003ca href=\"http://calmatters.org\">\u003cem>CALmatters.org\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003cem>, a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

"content": "\u003cp>The California man accused of killing a 19-year-old University of Pennsylvania student earlier this month is an avowed neo-Nazi and a member of one of the most notorious extremist groups in the country, according to three people with knowledge of the man’s recent activities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The man, Samuel Woodward, has been charged in Orange County with \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2018/01/18/investigators-determining-whether-murder-in-orange-county-was-a-hate-crime/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">murdering Blaze Bernstein\u003c/a>, who went missing in early January while visiting his family over winter break. Prosecutors allege that Woodward stabbed Bernstein more than 20 times before burying his body in an Orange County park where it was eventually discovered. The two men had attended high school together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodward, 20, is set to be arraigned on Feb. 2 and has not yet entered a plea. Orange County prosecutors say they are examining the possibility that the killing was a hate crime — Bernstein was Jewish and openly gay — and some recent news reports have suggested that the alleged killer might hold far-right or even white supremacist political beliefs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"mw56xNvI2KIIZ5XRubWnPAeYnkQQV2GG\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, three people with detailed knowledge of Woodward’s recent past have been able to shed more light on the young man’s extremist activities. They said Woodward was a member of the Atomwaffen Division, an armed Fascist group with the ultimate aim of overthrowing the U.S. government through the use of terrorism and guerrilla warfare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The organization, which celebrates Hitler and Charles Manson, has been tied to four other murders and an elaborate bomb plot over the past eight months. Experts who study right-wing extremist movements believe Atomwaffen’s commitment to violence has made it one of the more dangerous groups to emerge from the new wave of white supremacists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two of the three people who described Woodward’s affiliations are friends of his; the other is a former member of Atomwaffen Division.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ProPublica’s revelations about Woodward’s background add a new element to a murder case that has attracted considerable local and national news coverage. But they also raise fresh concerns about groups like Atomwaffen Division, shadowy outfits of uncertain size that appear capable of genuine harm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodward joined the organization in early 2016 and later traveled to Texas to attend Atomwaffen meetings and a three-day training camp, which involved instruction in firearms, hand-to-hand combat, camping and survival skills, the former member said. ProPublica has obtained photographs of Woodward at an outdoor Atomwaffen meeting in the scrubby Texas countryside. One of the photos depicts Woodward and other members making straight-armed Nazi salutes while wearing skull masks. In other pictures, Woodward is unmasked and easily identifiable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"g2r8o9kpPajwq0fh0EvwgQCk0sAr4reV\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The young man is proficient with both handguns and assault rifles, according to one person who participated in the Texas training and watched him shoot. That person also said that Woodward helped organize a number of Atomwaffen members in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Social media posts and chat logs shared by Woodward’s friends show that he openly described himself as a “National Socialist” or Nazi. He “was as anti-Semitic as you can get,” according to one acquaintance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ProPublica contacted Orange County prosecutors regarding Woodward’s alleged neo-Nazi activities. Michelle Van Der Linden, a spokesperson for the District Attorney’s Office, said she couldn’t comment directly on the case, but said the investigation is ongoing, with detectives exploring all possible leads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodward told police Bernstein had tried to kiss him while they were in the park, according to a sealed affidavit obtained by the Orange County Register.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodward’s defense lawyer, Edward Munoz, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday, Bernstein’s parents spoke to reporters about the loss of their son, but said they were not interested in talking about any information they had on the investigation of his death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Los Angeles Times quoted his mother, Jeanne Pepper Bernstein, as saying she had worried during her son’s life that he might be a target -- because he was small, and Jewish, and gay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was concerned sending him out into the big world,” she said. “But at some point you have to let go and they leave the nest and fly. I couldn’t protect him from everything.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Atomwaffen started in 2015 and is estimated to have about 80 members scattered around the country in small cells; the former member said the group’s ranks have grown since the lethal and chaotic “Unite the Right” rally last summer in Charlottesville, Virginia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"GKRwKi9MkBNWzqVjySBVdROaZ8ursjRq\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While many of the new white extremist groups have consciously avoided using Nazi imagery, Atomwaffen has done the opposite. The name can mean “Atomic Weapons” in German, and the organization embraces Third Reich iconography, including swastikas, the Totenkopf, or death’s head insignia, and SS lightning bolts. The group frequently produces YouTube videos featuring masked Atomwaffen members hiking through the backcountry and firing weapons. They’ve also \u003ca href=\"https://pewtube.com/user/GeneralFrancoPepe/3M9j8WC\">filmed themselves\u003c/a> burning the U.S. Constitution and setting fire to the American flag at an Atomwaffen “Doomsday Hatecamp.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Atomwaffen’s biggest inspiration seems to be James Mason, a long-time fascist who belonged to the American Nazi Party and later, during the 1970s, joined a more militant offshoot. During the 1980s, Mason published a newsletter called SIEGE, in which he eschewed political activism in favor of creating a new fascist regime through murder, small “lone wolf” terror attacks, and all-out war against the government.

Prosecutors allege that Woodward stabbed Bernstein more than 20 times before burying his body in an Orange County park where it was eventually discovered. The two men had attended high school together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodward, 20, is set to be arraigned on Feb. 2 and has not yet entered a plea. Orange County prosecutors say they are examining the possibility that the killing was a hate crime — Bernstein was Jewish and openly gay — and some recent news reports have suggested that the alleged killer might hold far-right or even white supremacist political beliefs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, three people with detailed knowledge of Woodward’s recent past have been able to shed more light on the young man’s extremist activities. They said Woodward was a member of the Atomwaffen Division, an armed Fascist group with the ultimate aim of overthrowing the U.S. government through the use of terrorism and guerrilla warfare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Experts who study right-wing extremist movements believe Atomwaffen’s commitment to violence has made it one of the more dangerous groups to emerge from the new wave of white supremacists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two of the three people who described Woodward’s affiliations are friends of his; the other is a former member of Atomwaffen Division.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ProPublica’s revelations about Woodward’s background add a new element to a murder case that has attracted considerable local and national news coverage. But they also raise fresh concerns about groups like Atomwaffen Division, shadowy outfits of uncertain size that appear capable of genuine harm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodward joined the organization in early 2016 and later traveled to Texas to attend Atomwaffen meetings and a three-day training camp, which involved instruction in firearms, hand-to-hand combat, camping and survival skills, the former member said. ProPublica has obtained photographs of Woodward at an outdoor Atomwaffen meeting in the scrubby Texas countryside. One of the photos depicts Woodward and other members making straight-armed Nazi salutes while wearing skull masks. In other pictures, Woodward is unmasked and easily identifiable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The young man is proficient with both handguns and assault rifles, according to one person who participated in the Texas training and watched him shoot. That person also said that Woodward helped organize a number of Atomwaffen members in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Social media posts and chat logs shared by Woodward’s friends show that he openly described himself as a “National Socialist” or Nazi. He “was as anti-Semitic as you can get,” according to one acquaintance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ProPublica contacted Orange County prosecutors regarding Woodward’s alleged neo-Nazi activities. Michelle Van Der Linden, a spokesperson for the District Attorney’s Office, said she couldn’t comment directly on the case, but said the investigation is ongoing, with detectives exploring all possible leads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodward told police Bernstein had tried to kiss him while they were in the park, according to a sealed affidavit obtained by the Orange County Register.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Woodward’s defense lawyer, Edward Munoz, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday, Bernstein’s parents spoke to reporters about the loss of their son, but said they were not interested in talking about any information they had on the investigation of his death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Los Angeles Times quoted his mother, Jeanne Pepper Bernstein, as saying she had worried during her son’s life that he might be a target -- because he was small, and Jewish, and gay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was concerned sending him out into the big world,” she said. “But at some point you have to let go and they leave the nest and fly. I couldn’t protect him from everything.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Atomwaffen started in 2015 and is estimated to have about 80 members scattered around the country in small cells; the former member said the group’s ranks have grown since the lethal and chaotic “Unite the Right” rally last summer in Charlottesville, Virginia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While many of the new white extremist groups have consciously avoided using Nazi imagery, Atomwaffen has done the opposite. The name can mean “Atomic Weapons” in German, and the organization embraces Third Reich iconography, including swastikas, the Totenkopf, or death’s head insignia, and SS lightning bolts. The group frequently produces YouTube videos featuring masked Atomwaffen members hiking through the backcountry and firing weapons. They’ve also \u003ca href=\"https://pewtube.com/user/GeneralFrancoPepe/3M9j8WC\">filmed themselves\u003c/a> burning the U.S. Constitution and setting fire to the American flag at an Atomwaffen “Doomsday Hatecamp.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Atomwaffen’s biggest inspiration seems to be James Mason, a long-time fascist who belonged to the American Nazi Party and later, during the 1970s, joined a more militant offshoot. During the 1980s, Mason published a newsletter called SIEGE, in which he eschewed political activism in favor of creating a new fascist regime through murder, small “lone wolf” terror attacks, and all-out war against the government. Mason also struck up a friendship with the late Charles Manson, who has become another hero for Atomwaffen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The organization first gained a measure of national attention in May of last year, when 18-year-old Devon Arthurs, one of Atomwaffen’s founding members, was charged in state court in Tampa, Florida, with murdering two of his roommates, Andrew Oneschuk, 18, and Jeremy Himmelman, 22.

Brown/AFP/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>One California lawmaker has floated the idea of requiring annual walk-throughs of home schools by state or county officials because of the case of the 13 siblings and \"a number of legislators have expressed interest in doing something,\" the HomeSchool Association of California said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We can't prevent evil,\" the association said, \"and trying to prevent it by taking away the freedom of law-abiding people is not a price our society should pay.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Watertown, Connecticut, Chemay Morales-James home-schools her 4- and 6-year-old children because she wasn't comfortable with her local school options and says she worries that \"things are going to change now.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She rejected the notion that home-schooling hurts children's socialization and said many home-schooled children, like hers, spend most of their time out and about in their communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm hoping this is one of those things where it's hot for the moment and then it dies down,\" Morales-James said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Disputes over the right level of home-schooling regulation have simmered for years as the number of home-schooled children in the U.S. skyrocketed from about 15,000 in the 1970s to about 2 million today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The practice was first driven largely by families' preferences to include religious teaching at home along with standard education. It gained wider acceptance as parents dissatisfied with their neighborhood schools turned to it to customize their children's education and nurture family bonds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"oyhUb8EEYNQoGgZdgwEXg4qdu6Ks25Kl\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the absence of federal guidelines, levels of oversight vary widely by state. Alaska and Idaho have virtually no regulations, while New York and Pennsylvania families must submit annual instruction plans to the district, administer standardized tests taken by public school students statewide and provide academic progress reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California treats home schools like other private schools and requires them to register. Private schools are subject to annual fire inspections, but no agency regulates or oversees them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Massachusetts-based Coalition for Responsible Home Education lobbies for mandatory medical visits or academic assessments that would ensure home-schooled children are seen by someone trained to recognize abuse. Less than half of U.S. states now require academic assessments, the Education Commission of the States said in a 2015 report on home-school regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's no better way to isolate your child if you are an abusive parent than to home-school,\" said Rachel Coleman, executive director of the coalition, which maintains a database of home-school abuse cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent years, the trend in state laws has been toward loosening government oversight of home-schooling, said Joseph Murray, a Vanderbilt University education professor who has researched home-schooling. West Virginia, for example, in 2016 reduced the number of annual assessments parents must submit to the district, and Arkansas eliminated an academic assessment requirement in 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There are states now where you don't really have to do anything.

It gained wider acceptance as parents dissatisfied with their neighborhood schools turned to it to customize their children's education and nurture family bonds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the absence of federal guidelines, levels of oversight vary widely by state. Alaska and Idaho have virtually no regulations, while New York and Pennsylvania families must submit annual instruction plans to the district, administer standardized tests taken by public school students statewide and provide academic progress reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California treats home schools like other private schools and requires them to register. Private schools are subject to annual fire inspections, but no agency regulates or oversees them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Massachusetts-based Coalition for Responsible Home Education lobbies for mandatory medical visits or academic assessments that would ensure home-schooled children are seen by someone trained to recognize abuse. Less than half of U.S. states now require academic assessments, the Education Commission of the States said in a 2015 report on home-school regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's no better way to isolate your child if you are an abusive parent than to home-school,\" said Rachel Coleman, executive director of the coalition, which maintains a database of home-school abuse cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent years, the trend in state laws has been toward loosening government oversight of home-schooling, said Joseph Murray, a Vanderbilt University education professor who has researched home-schooling. West Virginia, for example, in 2016 reduced the number of annual assessments parents must submit to the district, and Arkansas eliminated an academic assessment requirement in 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There are states now where you don't really have to do anything.

But in the era of Donald Trump, the 84-year-old Ginsburg is packing her schedule and sending signals she intends to keep her seat on the bench for years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The eldest Supreme Court justice has produced two of the court's four signed opinions so far this term. Outside court, she's the subject of a new documentary that includes video of her working out. And she has hired law clerks to take her through June 2020, just four months before the next presidential election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Soaking in her late-in-life emergence as a liberal icon, she's using the court's monthlong break to embark on a speaking tour that is taking her from the Sundance Film Festival in Utah to law schools and synagogues on the East Coast. One talk will have her in Rhode Island on Tuesday, meaning she won't attend the president's State of the Union speech that night in Washington.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She has a standard response for interviewers who ask how long she intends to serve. She will stay as long as she can go \"full steam,\" she says, and she sees as her model John Paul Stevens, who stepped down as a justice in 2010 at age 90.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think that Justice Ginsburg has made clear that she has no intention of retiring. I am sure she wants to stay on the court until the end of the Trump presidency if she can,\" said Erwin Chemerinsky, the dean of the law school at the University of California, Berkeley, and a liberal who called on Ginsburg to retire in 2014, when Barack Obama was president and Democrats controlled the Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Chemerinsky noted, \"No one can know whether she will be on the court on Jan. 20, 2021, if Trump serves one term, let alone Jan. 20, 2025, if he is re-elected.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ginsburg doesn't talk about Trump in public anymore, not since she criticized him in interviews with The Associated Press and other media outlets before the 2016 election. The comments prompted Trump to tweet that \"Her mind is shot - resign!\" She later apologized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11644867\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11644867\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/GettyImages-691165166-800x541.jpg\" alt=\"Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in the front row of the U.S. Supreme Court group portrait shortly after Justice Gorsuch had joined in 2017.\" width=\"800\" height=\"541\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/GettyImages-691165166-800x541.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/GettyImages-691165166-160x108.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/GettyImages-691165166-1020x690.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/GettyImages-691165166-1920x1298.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/GettyImages-691165166-1180x798.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/GettyImages-691165166-960x649.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/GettyImages-691165166-240x162.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/GettyImages-691165166-375x254.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/GettyImages-691165166-520x352.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in the front row of the U.S. Supreme Court group portrait shortly after Justice Gorsuch had joined in 2017. \u003ccite>(Alex Wong/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>For Ginsburg, who declined to comment for this story, this year marks the 25th anniversary of her nomination by President Bill Clinton and her confirmation as the second woman on the court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Ginsburg and most Americans anticipated Hillary Clinton's election win in 2016, she didn't commit to retiring but suggested she would give the first female president the chance to replace \"a flaming feminist litigator,\" as Ginsburg has wryly described herself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When her husband, Martin Ginsburg, died in 2010, Ginsburg said she did not think much about stepping down.

But in the era of Donald Trump, the 84-year-old Ginsburg is packing her schedule and sending signals she intends to keep her seat on the bench for years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The eldest Supreme Court justice has produced two of the court's four signed opinions so far this term. Outside court, she's the subject of a new documentary that includes video of her working out. And she has hired law clerks to take her through June 2020, just four months before the next presidential election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Soaking in her late-in-life emergence as a liberal icon, she's using the court's monthlong break to embark on a speaking tour that is taking her from the Sundance Film Festival in Utah to law schools and synagogues on the East Coast. One talk will have her in Rhode Island on Tuesday, meaning she won't attend the president's State of the Union speech that night in Washington.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She has a standard response for interviewers who ask how long she intends to serve. She will stay as long as she can go \"full steam,\" she says, and she sees as her model John Paul Stevens, who stepped down as a justice in 2010 at age 90.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think that Justice Ginsburg has made clear that she has no intention of retiring. I am sure she wants to stay on the court until the end of the Trump presidency if she can,\" said Erwin Chemerinsky, the dean of the law school at the University of California, Berkeley, and a liberal who called on Ginsburg to retire in 2014, when Barack Obama was president and Democrats controlled the Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

After the Germans invaded Holland, they sent Seaman’s family to a concentration camp, Bergen-Belsen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her father died just months before World War II ended. She was six years old. After the war, together with her mother, Seaman embarked on a peripatetic childhood, moving to London, then El Salvador, and finally the San Francisco Bay Area, where she studied at UC Berkeley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seaman says her mother’s attitude about the Holocaust and its aftermath helped frame the experience for her. \"My mother figured that she had to go on with life, and if she went around being angry and holding grudges, that wasn’t going to be very helpful.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seaman adds, \"Not that she condoned anything of what was going on. She certainly condemned the actions. But I also learned that people are basically good. When you think of a baby -- when they’re born, they’re wonderful, they’re new, they’ve got tremendous potential. Then things change them during their lives, and they may turn out to do cruel and terrible things.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11644654\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11644654\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-800x594.jpg\" alt=\"Passport photos of Maria Rosenthal and her daughter Elisabeth, circa 1946.\" width=\"800\" height=\"594\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-800x594.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-160x119.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-1020x758.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-1180x876.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-960x713.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-240x178.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-375x279.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-520x386.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Passport photos of Maria Rosenthal and her daughter Elisabeth, circa 1946. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Elisabeth Seaman)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>That early experience would eventually lead Seaman to a three-decade career in professional mediation, and a personal commitment to helping resolve conflict before they develop into catastrophes. “I’ve always been interested in any thing that can help make peace between people. I took to [mediation] like a duck takes to water.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among other things, she's co-authored a book called, \u003ca href=\"https://www.conflictresolution-thebook.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003ci>Conflict: The Unexpected Gift\u003c/i>\u003c/a>. She says, \"It’s our firm conviction that a set of practices designed and intended to help people become more skillful at resolving conflicts is one way we can nudge the world, one strengthened relationship at a time, towards solving the growing number of problems that result from breakdowns in interpersonal relationships.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seaman says conflict resolution involves a few basic principles that can be surprisingly tough to put into practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For starters, we all need to listen better\u003ci>. \"\u003c/i>When people think they’re listening to somebody, they’re not, really. Usually, they’re just thinking about ‘What’s the next thing I’m going to talk about?’ or ‘How I’m going to respond,’ and don’t really take in what the other person is saying.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two people observing the same set of \"facts\" perceive them differently, through the filter of their particular life experiences and unconscious biases. You can offset or reduce conflict by checking in with the other person, summarizing what you think you understand about their perspective, and then asking if you got it right.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11644656\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11644656\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29035_IMG_0836-2.jpg\" alt=\"Four generations of Elisabeth Seaman's family, three of which survived the Holocaust, pose for a photo in 1959. \" width=\"640\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29035_IMG_0836-2.jpg 640w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29035_IMG_0836-2-160x103.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29035_IMG_0836-2-240x155.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29035_IMG_0836-2-375x242.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29035_IMG_0836-2-520x336.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Four generations of Elisabeth Seaman's family, three of which survived the Holocaust, pose for a photo in 1959. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Elisabeth Seaman)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The other big challenge: taking responsibility when our actions harm others, starting with a genuine apology. Not \"‘Oh, I’m so sorry you feel badly about this.’ But rather, ‘I’m really sorry that whatever I did hurt you.’\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These exercises in humility construct a bridge, provide an invitation for the other person to do the same; ultimately, to find common ground. I ask if she's encountered incorrigible narcissists, but Seaman says she steers clear of labeling people, or \"limiting what the possibilities are for them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>International negotiators use these same skills, Seaman notes, to solve far more complicated problems than the ones that afflict our families and neighborhoods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The aim is to help people resolve things, two at a time. And then hopefully, each of those people can go on to help others,\" Seaman says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's tempting to argue that, in this era of political polarization, many of us don’t want to find common ground with obnoxious family members, neighbors, Facebook friends, or politicians. But try saying that to someone who's survived as much as Elisabeth Seaman has.\u003c/p>\n\n",

After the Germans invaded Holland, they sent Seaman’s family to a concentration camp, Bergen-Belsen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her father died just months before World War II ended. She was six years old. After the war, together with her mother, Seaman embarked on a peripatetic childhood, moving to London, then El Salvador, and finally the San Francisco Bay Area, where she studied at UC Berkeley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seaman says her mother’s attitude about the Holocaust and its aftermath helped frame the experience for her. \"My mother figured that she had to go on with life, and if she went around being angry and holding grudges, that wasn’t going to be very helpful.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seaman adds, \"Not that she condoned anything of what was going on. She certainly condemned the actions. But I also learned that people are basically good. When you think of a baby -- when they’re born, they’re wonderful, they’re new, they’ve got tremendous potential. Then things change them during their lives, and they may turn out to do cruel and terrible things.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11644654\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11644654\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-800x594.jpg\" alt=\"Passport photos of Maria Rosenthal and her daughter Elisabeth, circa 1946.\" width=\"800\" height=\"594\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-800x594.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-160x119.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-1020x758.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-1180x876.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-960x713.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-240x178.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-375x279.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29036_MGRER-passport-photos-2-qut-520x386.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Passport photos of Maria Rosenthal and her daughter Elisabeth, circa 1946. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Elisabeth Seaman)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>That early experience would eventually lead Seaman to a three-decade career in professional mediation, and a personal commitment to helping resolve conflict before they develop into catastrophes. “I’ve always been interested in any thing that can help make peace between people.

She says, \"It’s our firm conviction that a set of practices designed and intended to help people become more skillful at resolving conflicts is one way we can nudge the world, one strengthened relationship at a time, towards solving the growing number of problems that result from breakdowns in interpersonal relationships.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seaman says conflict resolution involves a few basic principles that can be surprisingly tough to put into practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For starters, we all need to listen better\u003ci>. \"\u003c/i>When people think they’re listening to somebody, they’re not, really. Usually, they’re just thinking about ‘What’s the next thing I’m going to talk about?’ or ‘How I’m going to respond,’ and don’t really take in what the other person is saying.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two people observing the same set of \"facts\" perceive them differently, through the filter of their particular life experiences and unconscious biases. You can offset or reduce conflict by checking in with the other person, summarizing what you think you understand about their perspective, and then asking if you got it right.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11644656\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11644656\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29035_IMG_0836-2.jpg\" alt=\"Four generations of Elisabeth Seaman's family, three of which survived the Holocaust, pose for a photo in 1959. \" width=\"640\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29035_IMG_0836-2.jpg 640w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29035_IMG_0836-2-160x103.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29035_IMG_0836-2-240x155.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29035_IMG_0836-2-375x242.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/01/RS29035_IMG_0836-2-520x336.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Four generations of Elisabeth Seaman's family, three of which survived the Holocaust, pose for a photo in 1959. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Elisabeth Seaman)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The other big challenge: taking responsibility when our actions harm others, starting with a genuine apology. Not \"‘Oh, I’m so sorry you feel badly about this.’ But rather, ‘I’m really sorry that whatever I did hurt you.’\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These exercises in humility construct a bridge, provide an invitation for the other person to do the same; ultimately, to find common ground. I ask if she's encountered incorrigible narcissists, but Seaman says she steers clear of labeling people, or \"limiting what the possibilities are for them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>International negotiators use these same skills, Seaman notes, to solve far more complicated problems than the ones that afflict our families and neighborhoods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The aim is to help people resolve things, two at a time. And then hopefully, each of those people can go on to help others,\" Seaman says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's tempting to argue that, in this era of political polarization, many of us don’t want to find common ground with obnoxious family members, neighbors, Facebook friends, or politicians. But try saying that to someone who's survived as much as Elisabeth Seaman has.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

He has been challenged in Los Angeles by Michael Channels, another pen pal and collector of Manson memorabilia, who holds a will bearing what appears to be Manson's signature and names him as executor and sole beneficiary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gurecki, who like Channels also sells Manson mementos to fans of so-called murderabilia, has filed a will with the Kern County Coroner's Office bearing Manson's purported signature. It names Gurecki as executor and leaves everything to his \"one living child,\" Matthew Lentz, a Los Angeles musician. Lentz and Gurecki have yet to file the will in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Kern County coroner, who has held Manson's body since he died on Nov. 19, is asking Judge David Cowan to transfer the case regarding Manson's remains to that county, where a hearing is scheduled Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cowan will also decide what forum is the correct place to decide who controls Manson's estate. Channels originally tried to file the will in Kern County, but it got rejected. He then filed it in Kings County, where Manson was incarcerated for years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Freeman's lawyer, Alan Davis, wants the estate litigated in Los Angeles because that's where Manson lived before his convictions in the 1969 killings of pregnant actress Sharon Tate and eight other people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the one previous hearing focused largely on procedure, the parties have lobbed insults and jabs outside court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Channels said Lentz is a fraud and that Gurecki forged Manson's signature on the will he allegedly received in the mail in January 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"F5NZpx7uKtp3R1ZR9zxPqOAXS7C4E8Vh\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gurecki said the will that Channels holds was written by Channels and given to Manson to autograph during a prison visit. It was dated the same way Channels stamped Manson memorabilia he peddled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesman for Lentz, Mike Smith, said he fears Channels and Freeman plan to profit off the body of Manson, possibly selling photos of the body to a tabloid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're going to expose both of them as charlatans,\" Smith said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both wills could have significant problems of their own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deputy Kern County Counsel Bryan Walters said the will Channels holds is partly illegible and appears to contain his own signature as one of two witnesses, which puts its validity into question because he's the beneficiary. Channels' signature as a witness also appears to be dated four days before Manson's signature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's almost like 'Back to the Future,' \" Walters said. \"I think that story is probably going to unravel pretty quickly in court.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The will naming Lentz as sole heir lacks a required signature from a second witness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lentz could face a more significant hurdle beyond having to prove a genetic link to Manson. Because he was adopted, he can't make a claim to his biological father's estate under California law, said Davis, Freeman's attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think he's got a leg to stand on,\" Davis said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

He has been challenged in Los Angeles by Michael Channels, another pen pal and collector of Manson memorabilia, who holds a will bearing what appears to be Manson's signature and names him as executor and sole beneficiary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gurecki, who like Channels also sells Manson mementos to fans of so-called murderabilia, has filed a will with the Kern County Coroner's Office bearing Manson's purported signature. It names Gurecki as executor and leaves everything to his \"one living child,\" Matthew Lentz, a Los Angeles musician. Lentz and Gurecki have yet to file the will in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Kern County coroner, who has held Manson's body since he died on Nov. 19, is asking Judge David Cowan to transfer the case regarding Manson's remains to that county, where a hearing is scheduled Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cowan will also decide what forum is the correct place to decide who controls Manson's estate. Channels originally tried to file the will in Kern County, but it got rejected. He then filed it in Kings County, where Manson was incarcerated for years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Freeman's lawyer, Alan Davis, wants the estate litigated in Los Angeles because that's where Manson lived before his convictions in the 1969 killings of pregnant actress Sharon Tate and eight other people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the one previous hearing focused largely on procedure, the parties have lobbed insults and jabs outside court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Channels said Lentz is a fraud and that Gurecki forged Manson's signature on the will he allegedly received in the mail in January 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gurecki said the will that Channels holds was written by Channels and given to Manson to autograph during a prison visit. It was dated the same way Channels stamped Manson memorabilia he peddled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesman for Lentz, Mike Smith, said he fears Channels and Freeman plan to profit off the body of Manson, possibly selling photos of the body to a tabloid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're going to expose both of them as charlatans,\" Smith said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both wills could have significant problems of their own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Deputy Kern County Counsel Bryan Walters said the will Channels holds is partly illegible and appears to contain his own signature as one of two witnesses, which puts its validity into question because he's the beneficiary. Channels' signature as a witness also appears to be dated four days before Manson's signature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's almost like 'Back to the Future,' \" Walters said. \"I think that story is probably going to unravel pretty quickly in court.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The will naming Lentz as sole heir lacks a required signature from a second witness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lentz could face a more significant hurdle beyond having to prove a genetic link to Manson. Because he was adopted, he can't make a claim to his biological father's estate under California law, said Davis, Freeman's attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think he's got a leg to stand on,\" Davis said.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
