Hillary Calls for Overhaul Of Husband's Crime Policies:  Hillary Rodham Clinton announced in a speech Wednesday that tough-on-crime policies put in place while her husband was in office have failed.  Anne Gearan of the Washington Post reports that after the speech, a campaign spokesperson for Clinton "tamped down on the notion that she was refuting her husband's policies."  Clinton is advocating for sentencing reform to end the "era of mass incarceration."

Baltimore Gun Violence On the Rise:  Gun violence in Baltimore, away from the rioting and protesting, is on the rise with a total of nine people shot on Tuesday and Wednesday, two fatally.  Justin Fenton of the Baltimore Sun reports that homicides are up 25 percent in the city this year, with 13 incidents occurring since April 12, the day Freddie Gray was arrested.  "It's just another day in the neighborhood," explains a Baltimore resident.

Half Arrested During Riots Released Without Charges:  The rioting in Baltimore led the police to make over 200 arrests, but confusion surrounding "which officer arrested which suspects and for precisely what reasons" resulted in half of them being released without charges.  Fox News reports that Maryland's governor extended the period of time in which the suspects had to appear before a judge from 24 hours to 48 hours due to the crisis and unrest in the city.  Despite this, two days still was not enough time for law enforcement to sort out what happened.

Two Drug Tunnels Found Along Border:  US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents discovered two drug tunnels, one complete and the other in progress, stretching across the California-Mexico border after four men were intercepted with 69 pounds of methamphetamine near the All-American Canal.  Sylvia Longmire of Breitbart reports that the tunnels, which began in private homes in Mexicali and Tijuana, were equipped with lighting and ventilation, and one of them had a rail system with a cart.  Agencies will have to work quickly now to seal the US portion of the completed tunnel, which can cost taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars.  Since 2006, more than 80 drug tunnels have been discovered.

One In 10 Births Are To Illegals:  About 400,000 children are born to illegal immigrants annually, meaning that one out of 10 births in the US is to an illegal immigrant mother.  Caroline May of Breitbart reports that the Citizenship Clause of the 14^th Amendment and federal programs such as the Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents have allowed illegal immigrants to remain in the US without fear of deportation and collect government benefits simply because of their child's birthright citizenship.  The Center for Immigration Studies emphasizes the growing problem of "birth tourism," in which pregnant foreigners travel to the US just to give birth to a child, and cites the need for Congressional action.
