A woman from Central Florida was arrested Tuesday on a warrant in connection with a fiery crash that killed four people on April 21, the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office announced.

Jazmin Shope, 20, of Auburndale in Polk County, is facing four counts of vehicular homicide. She was speeding in a 2013 Ford Taurus shortly before 9 p.m. in the 17900 block of South Military Trail near the entrance to the Polo Club Shops and crashed into the passenger side of a 2017 Genesis G90 as it turned into the shopping plaza, according to a PBSO crash report.

The force of impact forced both cars off the road. The Genesis G90 slammed into a concrete utility pole while the engine compartment of Shope’s Ford caught fire and became engulfed in flames, the report said.

All four people inside the Genesis were pronounced dead at the scene: James Lawrence Rose, 88, of Boca Raton; Arlene Rose, 87, of Boca Raton; Gerald A. Levy, 92, of Boca Raton; and Thelma Illson Levy, 93, of Boca Raton.

Shope and her passenger, Ethan Ryan Litman, 22, of Delray Beach, were both taken to Delray Medical Center with serious injuries, the crash report said.

Shope was booked into the Palm Beach County jail Tuesday afternoon after she was arrested by the Sheriff’s Office’s Fugitive Warrants Unit. The Sheriff’s Office did not provide further information about its investigation or information about where they located Shope on Tuesday.

Court records were not yet available.

For the third day in a row, the Miami Hurricanes added a new player to their 2026 class. And for the second day in a row, it came at the expense of a team that fired its coach.

One day after UM landed edge rusher DeAnthony Lafayette, a former LSU commit who backed off his commitment when the Tigers fired Brian Kelly, the Hurricanes flipped 2026 defensive tackle Isaac Chukwurah from Penn State, which fired James Franklin last month.

Chukwurah is listed as the No. 60 defensive tackle and No. 506 player in the 2026 class, according to 247Sports’ composite rankings. He is the No. 2 prospect in the state of Delaware.

The standout defensive tackle, who also had offers from N.C. State, Syracuse and West Virginia, among others, is listed at 6 foot 2 and 265 pounds.

Chukwurah has played both offense and defense in high school, and the Hurricanes staff likes his length, motor and ability to play with violence and resilience, a UM source said. He is strong rushing the passer and stopping the run.

Chukwurah is the seventh defensive lineman in the Hurricanes’ 2026 class and the fourth defensive tackle, joining recent four-star Clemson flip Keshawn Stancil and three-star prospects Anthony Kennedy Jr., Tyson Bacon and Frederic Sainteus.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump boasts that his tariffs protect American industries, lure factories to the United States, raise money for the federal government and give him diplomatic leverage.

Now, he’s claiming they can finance a windfall for American families, too: He’s promising a generous tariff dividend.

The president proposed the idea on his Truth Social media platform Sunday, five days after his Republican Party lost elections in Virginia, New Jersey and elsewhere largely because of voter discontent with his economic stewardship — specifically, the high cost of living.

The tariffs are bringing in so much money, the president posted, that “a dividend of at least $2000 a person (not including high income people!) will be paid to everyone.’’

Budget experts scoffed at the idea, which conjured memories of the Trump administration’s short-lived plan for DOGE dividend checks financed by billionaire Elon Musk’s federal budget cuts.

“The numbers just don’t check out,″ said Erica York, vice president of federal tax policy at the nonpartisan Tax Foundation.

Details are scarce, including what the income limits would be and whether payments would go to children.

Even Trump’s treasury secretary, Scott Bessent, sounded a bit blindsided by the audacious dividend plan. Appearing Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” Bessent said he hadn’t discussed the dividend with the president and suggested that it might not mean that Americans would get a check from the government. Instead, Bessent said, the rebate might take the form of tax cuts.

The tariffs are certainly raising money — $195 billion in the budget year that ended Sept. 30, up 153% from $77 billion in fiscal 2024. But they still account for less than 4% of federal revenue and have done little to dent the federal budget deficit — a staggering $1.8 trillion in fiscal 2025.

Budget wonks say Trump’s dividend math doesn’t work.

John Ricco, an analyst with the Budget Lab at Yale University, reckons that Trump’s tariffs will bring in $200 billion to $300 billion a year in revenue. But a $2,000 dividend — if it went to all Americans, including children — would cost $600 billion. “It’s clear that the revenue coming in would not be adequate,” he said.

Ricco also noted that Trump couldn’t just pay the dividends on his own. They would require legislation from Congress.

Moreover, the centerpiece of Trump’s protectionist trade policies — double-digit taxes on imports from almost every country in the world — may not survive a legal challenge that has reached the U.S. Supreme Court.

In a hearing last week, the justices sounded skeptical about the Trump administration’s assertion of sweeping power to declare national emergencies to justify the tariffs. Trump has bypassed Congress, which has authority under the Constitution to levy taxes, including tariffs.

If the court strikes down the tariffs, the Trump administration may be refunding money to the importers who paid them, not sending dividend checks to American families. (Trump could find other ways to impose tariffs, even if he loses at the Supreme Court; but it could be cumbersome and time-consuming.)

Mainstream economists and budget analysts note that tariffs are paid by U.S. importers who then generally try to pass along the cost to their customers through higher prices.

The dividend plan “misses the mark,” the Tax Foundation’s York said. ”If the goal is relief for Americans, just get rid of the tariffs.’’

Paul Tagliabue died this past weekend. The former NFL commissioner was influential and successful in helping America’s favorite league navigate enormous change with profitable leaps and bounds.

It’s necessary to say that here, at the top, because this column isn’t an ode or obituary to Tagliabue. This is about an admittedly trivial, personal and recurring question that comes in the aftermath of some sports figures’ deaths:

Do I keep his name on my phone?

My cell phone is a graveyard as I grow older. Tagliabue is a swipe from “Shula,” the Miami Dolphins legend who also never needed a first name on my phone. Don Shula also is another swipe from a couple of other Dolphins of different eras, safety Jake Scott and coach Tony Sparano.

They’ve all been gone for years, meaning these phone numbers serve no purpose. There are some people’s numbers you haven’t tried in so many years you’re not sure if they’re good anymore. That’s not the case here.

Still, I don’t delete them. I keep them for some reason. And sometimes scrolling through my phone is like strolling through a cemetery.

I see a name and remember sitting with Shula at his home office talking about the alligator that players put in his office shower or sitting beside Scott at a bar in Kauai with two native Hawaiians, who sat in those same seats a few years later for the George Clooney movie, “The Descendants.”

“They didn’t call me for the movie!” Scott said.

Such stories come from the phone. Sparano, who died in 2017, called me a couple years after he left the Dolphins when he was the Oakland Raiders’ line coach.

“Dave, where’s the game film?” he said.

“Tony, what?”

“The game film,’’ he said.

I said who he’d called. He asked once more for the game film. Then it hit him. He typed my name by mistake on the phone

“We had a late game last night,’’ he said, before adding, quietly, “How’re you doing?”

There are 23 numbers I carry around in my phone that can’t be called anymore. Some, like Miami Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez, I never called, because his tragic fatal boat crash came before a call was ever made.

Others, like former Florida Panthers president Bill Torrey or football coach Howard Schnellenberger, lived long and successful lives in the sports they loved and were nice enough to share their wealth of information.

“Let me help educate you …” Torrey would say.

When I was young and just beginning, I figured the sports world would be full of people like Torrey and Schnellenberger and Shula. But you realize at some point they’re the rare ones you were lucky just to pass in the hall.

“You don’t miss someone until it’s too late,’’ my first Sun Sentinel sports editor, Fred Turner, would say.

His lines remain in my head, like his number in my phone nearly 15 years after his death. Same with another former colleague, Juan Rodriguez. It’s not like their names are a daily sight. How often do you have to scroll through your listings to find something? Every few months? Maybe twice a year?

Maybe this is why these names were never deleted. Maybe these occasional walks though the graveyard matter, even if their numbers don’t. It’s not like the phone will light up with their name calling me as they once did, either.

“I’ve got a story for you,’’ Dolphins great Mercury Morris said in one of his final calls. He didn’t just want to clear his name from a drug charge decades earlier. He wanted to expose the legal officials who brought the charges.

He died last year before we talked fully about it. Many were just part of the job, like the number for Tagliabue. I introduced myself after he talked at a Super Bowl. He gave his office number, and we talked a few months later about a project that never happened  about running a sports league.

“Every day behind that desk brings something you didn’t expect,’’ he said at one point.

That’s why I don’t delete his or any names from my phone. It’s an odd and trivial issue with age. But my phone is a cemetery I occasionally visit.
