A U.S. woman, Christina Chapman, has been sentenced to 102 months (over 8 years) in prison for running a large identity theft scheme that helped North Koreans pose as American workers. Chapman, 50, stole the identities of 68 U.S. citizens and used them to secure jobs at more than 300 companies, including major Fortune 500 firms like Nike. Through this fraud, North Korean nationals were able to gain remote employment using fake identities. Chapman operated “laptop farms” in her homes in Arizona and Minnesota, logging into devices issued by American companies to make it appear that the workers were based in the U.S. She then helped these individuals remotely access the systems and collect their wages. The operation generated $17 million, which was funneled back to North Korea’s nuclear weapons program. Chapman was paid $176,850 for her role and also sent over 35 packages to Dandong, China—near the North Korean border—as well as to countries like Pakistan, Nigeria, and the UAE...

  An 11-year-old girl in Minas Gerais, Brazil, was found to have 81 teeth, including 18 milk teeth, 32 permanent teeth, and 31 supernumerary teeth, a rare condition known as polydontia. Discovered during a dental visit for milk tooth extraction at the Federal University of Juiz de Fora, X-rays and cone beam computed tomography revealed the abnormal teeth distribution. Typically, polydontia involves only a few extra teeth, making this case exceptionally rare. A rare mutation in chromosome 9 was identified, but its link to the condition is unclear, as the cause of supernumerary teeth may involve genetic and environmental factors. The girl, who has no known related genetic syndrome, is undergoing long-term multidisciplinary treatment, including tooth extractions and surgeries, to restore jaw health and function. Her mother has thalassemia, but no genetic connection was confirmed. The case, published in the American Journal of Orthodontics and Maxillofacial Surgery, highlights the impo...
