Trevor Jacob, a California pilot with a daredevil YouTube channel who deliberately crashed his airplane in a stunt in 2021 to make a video has agreed to plead guilty to obstructing the investigation into the crash.
The influencer and former Olympic snowboarder admitted to mounting cameras on a small airplane and equipping himself with a parachute so he could film a solo flight from Lompoc City Airport in Santa Barbara County to Mammoth Lakes, about 400 miles away near Yosemite National Park.
In a plea agreement, Jacob admitted he had intended to obstruct federal authorities when he disposed of the wreckage and had created the video to make money through a sponsorship with a wallet company.

need to end the Kaiser short-staffing crisis, Dawn Martin, a medical assistant in

What You Should Know About Indigenous Peoplesâ Day.
President Joe Biden formally recognized Indigenous Peoples' Day
as a National Holiday in 2021.
According to the Associated Press,
Native American advocates first pushed
for the holiday change in 1992.
According to the 'Daily Californian,' California was the first U.S. city to adopt the holiday.
According to CNN, at least 13 states have officially made the change honoring past and present native communities and their culture.
The argument for ditching Columbus Day is that Christopher Columbus' legacy of slave trading, violence and lackluster navigational skills ... .
... pale in comparison to the strength,
resilience and leadership of the Native Americans who endured his treachery.
Indigenous Peoplesâ Day redirects our national attention away from this tragedy to instead honor the resilience of those who survived Columbus and his trail of violence. , Elizabeth Rule, an enrolled citizen in the Chickasaw Nation,
