POLICE LOG BOISE, Idaho (AP) Prosecutors have charged a missing Utah man with three counts of first-degree murder after two additional i found in a shed near a rural Idaho farmhouse were iden- tified as a woman and her 1 4 ye a old daughter. They and a third victim, the wife, were all from Ogden, Utah.

Authorities say 48-year- old Nadja Medley, her daughter Payton Medley, and 57-year-old Cheryl Baker had each been shot once and their bodies hid- den in the shed outside a Caldwell, Idaho home that Baker had recently pur- chased with her husband, Gerald Michael Bullinger. Bullinger, a 60-year-old pilot and outfitter, has been the subject of a nationwide manhunt since the bodies were found in mid-June. The bodies were badly de- composed, but a coroner was able to identify Baker on June 30. The other two identifications were made Tuesday morning, after test results from DNA and bone marrow were complete. Authorities have released few details about the crime, but said Bullinger should be considered armed and dan- gerous.

Missing man charged with murder Bullinger US expels diplomats after sonic attacks WASHINGTON The two- year-old U.S. diplomatic rela- tionship with Cuba was roiled Wednesday by what U.S.

officials believe was a string of bizarre attacks on a group of American diplomats in Havana with a co- vert sonic device that left the victims with severe hearing loss. In the fall of 2016, a series of U.S. diplomats began suffer- ing unexplained losses of hear- ing, according to officials with knowledge of the investigation into the case. The embassy re- opened in 2015. Some of the symp- toms were so severe that they were forced to cancel their tours early and return to the United States, officials said.

After months of investigation, U.S. officials concluded that the dip- lomats had been attacked with an advanced sonic device. The U.S. retaliated by expelling two Cuban diplomats from their embassy in Washington on May 23.

Associated Press CHAD DAY AND ERIC TUCKER Associated Press WASHINGTON FBI agents looking for financial documents have searched one of the homes of President Donald former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, whose past foreign po- litical work has been swept into the investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 election. A Manafort spokesman confirmed the search Wednesday. Manafort spokesman Jason Ma- loni said in a statement that FBI agents had obtained a warrant and searched one of homes, but he would not say when the search occurred or what it entailed. Manafort has consistently cooperated with law enforcement and other serious inquiries and did so on this occasion as Maloni said.

The Associated Press has learned the warrant for the search on July 26 at home in Alexandria, Virginia, sought information including tax docu- ments and banking records. The Washington Post first reported the raid. Manafort has been a subject of a longstanding FBI investigation into his dealings in Ukraine and work for the former president, Viktor Yanukovych. That investigation has been incor- porated into the probe led by spe- cial counsel Robert Mueller, who is also scrutinizing role in the Trump campaign as he looks into meddling in the 2016 election and any possible collusion with Trump associates. Manafort, who led the Trump campaign for several months, has denied any wrongdoing.

He also spoke behind closed doors to Sen- ate investigators for an interview just one day before the search of his home. The use of a search warrant in- dicates that law enforcement offi- cials have convinced a judge there is probable cause to believe a crime may have been committed. Also, FBI agents have been ask- ing witnesses since the spring about $530,000 worth of lobby- ing and investigative work carried out by firm, Flynn Intel Group, according to a person fa- miliar with the investigation. That work sought the extradition of an exiled Turkish cleric living in the U.S. Through his attorney, Flynn has declined to comment on the investigation.
