The attorneys for a Mississippi man who was at one point charged with sending letters laced with ricin to the president and other government leaders are pushing federal authorities to repair or replace the man’s home, which was left unlivable after investigators’ extensive search of it.

About 1.1 million homes were in the […]

Each month, O’Brien Homes has attracted around 50 eager, pre-qualified buyers—who already have their down payments secured—to enter the lottery. Only about 10 or so sites are […]
