Southern California's 'last affordable' region has seen a huge population boom. Experts say this trend is driven partly by coastal renters moving inland to purchase more affordable homes. California has in recent years been dogged by rampant homelessness, drug addiction, and eye-watering living costs that has forced residents out in droves to Arizona, Texas and further afield. But it now appears that the Golden State may be bouncing back.

California grew by some 67,000 people last year, its first gain since 2019, says an estimate from the state Department of Finance. This ends a population decline that's dogged Gov. Gavin Newsom - widely seen as a future Democratic presidential candidate - through much of his tenure. 'People from across the nation and the globe are coming to the Golden State to pursue the California Dream,' said Newsom. On the West Coast, they 'can experience the success of the world's 5th largest economy,' he added.

Governor Gavin Newson's latest law, which went into operation on January 1, delegalized loitering with the intention of engaging in prostitution. Locals are concerned about their protection after reports that more prostitutes have taken to the streets and brought violence to neighborhoods. 'It's completely out of control and risky, not just for the sex employees, but also for the whole community,' San Francisco Supervisor Hillary Ronen said. Capp Street is included in Mission's district, which has become the hot spot for sex workers to loiter. Senator Scott Wiener has been chastised by police departments for pushing for legislation to outlaw loitering because they are powerless to change the street's image. However, Weiner rebuffed the notion that the police have not followed the anti-loitering statute.

Chokr's most recent occurrence, outside Temple Beth El, a reform synagogue located in West Bloomfield, is now facing two criminal charges of ethnic violence. On Tuesday, he appeared in court on a separate charge that called for resisting arrest. Chokr appeared before Wayne County Judge Regina Thomas, the same judge who released Chokr on bond two and a half years ago in Dearborn, was convicted of a criminal charge. That bond in Wayne County has since been withdrawn. ClickonDetroit announced that his new bond in Oakland County is valued at $1 million. The perpetrator began with a series of tirades, first flipping the judge off with his middle finger and then mooning her on Tuesday, which took place during the virtual emergency bond hearing. Chokr, who was being detained in Orange County Jail, refused to recognize his name and said, 'pleads the fifth,' before becoming irate, screaming and pointing at the camera, causing the judge to mute his microphone. 'Now he has taken off his pants to show the court's backside,' says the judge, who managed to maintain her composure: 'I am putting him in the waiting room.'
