Pope Leo XIV has visited families near Naples affected by illegal toxic dumping linked to the mafia. On Saturday, he met with those who lost loved ones to cancer and other illnesses tied to pollution. His visit to the "Land of Fires" reflects his commitment to continuing Pope Francis' environmental agenda. The European Court of Human Rights found that Italian authorities knew about the pollution since 1988 but failed to act. Bishop Antonio Di Donna emphasized the ongoing issue, urging the pope to condemn polluters. Families of victims appealed to the pope for help in healing the land.
Court records reveal new details about one of two teenagers who killed three people at a San Diego mosque.

Court records and a family statement say Vazquez had a history of mental health issues and was involuntarily hospitalized. His family said they tried to help him, but experts say online radicalization is difficult to combat. Authorities say Vazquez and Cain Clark met online, and that Clark's mother reported guns missing hours before the shooting.

A federal judge in Tennessee on Friday agreed to dismiss the charges. Abrego Garcia is a Salvadoran citizen with an American wife and child who has lived in Maryland for years, although he immigrated to the U.S. illegally as a teenager.
