ST. LOUIS, Mo. (First Alert 4) - A former St. Clair High School teacher who resigned after her OnlyFans page was reported to district officials has been fired after days on a new job.

Brianna Coppage had been a teacher for five years, spending two at St. Clair High School. She was put on leave in October after it was discovered that she was using OnlyFans to supplement her teaching salary.

After her OnlyFans became public, Coppage told First Alert 4 that she had made $1 million on the platform. Her yearly teaching salary was $42,000, she said at the time.

After leaving the district, Coppage told First Alert 4 that she struggled to find her purpose.

"Originally published March 14 by Idaho Reports.The Idaho Senate passed legislation Thursday that would make online pornography publishers and distributors vulnerable to civil liability if a minor accesses harmful material on the internet.

“Our kids are continuously exposed to pornography, and our current laws don’t effectively protect them,” said bill sponsor Sen. Ben Toews, R-Coeur d’Alene. “What you have before you is an effective solution. It uses third-party age verification as a way to block that content from children.”

House Bill 498 would require websites where at least one-third of the content is pornographic to perform “reasonable age verification” to prevent minors from accessing the harmful material. The House unanimously passed the bill on Feb. 14."

"With this statement, ESWA expresses its deep concern and disappointment regarding the recent abrupt decision of payment platform Stripe to cease working with Wishtender, an online platform utilised by sex workers. The lack of transparency surrounding Stripe’s decision is concerning as it obstructs accountability. Furthermore, the abrupt nature of Stripe’s action has generated considerable stress and uncertainty amongst sex workers who feared the loss of their resources and the platform they relied upon."

A former Army officer has been sentenced to four years in prison after raping a sex worker in Wellington.

Savenaca Seruvatu was convicted of sexual violation by rape in the Wellington District Court in February, after removing a condom without consent during sexual intercourse in an adult entertainment club in Lower Hutt in September 2020.

A former Pasco Police Officer was sentenced today in a Spokane cold case murder that spanned 38 years and resulted in two trials

Twenty-seven-year-old Ruby Doss was found murdered in 1986 in East Spokane, her case was worked by the Spokane Police Department for decades with no conclusion or arrest of a suspect.

In 2015 DNA collected from a condom found at the Ruby Doss crime scene was matched to Richard Aguirre. Aguirre’s DNA had been submitted during an unrelated rape investigation in Franklin County. Aguirre was tried in that case and found not guilty by a jury in 2017.

At the time Ruby Doss was murdered Aguirre was living in Spokane serving in the U.S. Airforce and stationed at Fairchild. He then moved to the Tri-cities where in 1988 he became a Pasco Police Officer.

In 2016 Aguirre was charged with murder for the killing of Ruby Doss but the charges were dropped in 2017 due to a lack of evidence. In 2021 the Spokane County Prosecutors office brought the charge on Aguirre again but a jury could not agree on a verdict and a mistrial was declared.

In 2023 Aguirre was once again tried and in December convicted of first-degree murder for the killing of Ruby Doss. Today the judge handed down a sentence of 25 years, which fell at the high end of the range of 20 to 26 years. Aguirre is now 59 years old.

Ruby’s four daughters were able to speak to the court and describe the loss they each experienced and the continuing loss their family has, and will suffer, as now three generations have been deprived of knowing Ruby.

This case brings closure not just to the family of Ruby Doss but to an entire community as well as generations of Spokane Police Investigators, Spokane County Prosecutors and others who sought justice for Ruby Doss.

Lawmakers are trying to pass the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA), a dangerous censorship bill that would give the government unprecedented control over the internet and force platforms to spy on youth.

KOSA uses two methods to “protect” kids, and both of them are awful. First, KOSA would pressure platforms to install filters that would wipe the net of anything deemed “inappropriate” for minors. This = instructing platforms to censor, plain and simple. Places that already use content filters have restricted important information about suicide prevention and LGBTQ+ support groups, and KOSA would spread this kind of censorship to every corner of the internet. It’s no surprise that anti-rights zealots are excited about KOSA: it would let them shut down websites that cover topics like race, gender, and sexuality.
