<p>Robert Dorgan, 56 — who shot four family members and a family friend before he turned the gun on himself following the deadly rampage at the Pawtucket ice rink — used the female alias Roberta Esposito, Pawtucket Police Chief Tina Goncalves said during a press conference Monday night.</p>
<p>“We have identified the person, the suspect, by a birth name, the birth name was Robert Dorgan,” Goncalves said. “We have also learned that the person does go by the name of Roberta, also uses the last name of Esposito.”</p>

<p class="body-graf">WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld a Tennessee law restricting gender transition care for minors, delivering a major blow to transgender rights.</p>
<p class="body-graf">The 6-3 ruling is likely to have a <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-politics-and-policy/transgender-health-care-supreme-court-decision-rcna182008" target="_blank" rel="noopener">broad impact </a>as <a href="https://www.lgbtmap.org/equality-maps/healthcare/youth_medical_care_bans" target="_blank" rel="noopener">24 other</a> <a href="https://www.lgbtmap.org/equality-maps/healthcare/youth_medical_care_bans" target="_blank" rel="noopener">states</a> have already enacted laws similar to the one in Tennessee, which bars gender transition surgery, puberty blockers and hormone therapy for youth.</p>
<p class="body-graf">Those laws now look set to survive similar legal challenges. The ruling does not affect states that do not have such bans, meaning care in those states will still be available.</p>
<p class="body-graf">The court was divided on ideological lines, with the six conservatives in the majority and the three liberals in dissent.</p>

<p>McBride easily defeated Republican John Whalen III on Tuesday in the race for Delaware’s lone House seat. Whalen is a retired construction company owner and former state trooper who ran a shoestring campaign in his first bid for public office.</p>
<p>McBride, meanwhile, has established a national profile as an LGBTQ activist and raised more than $3 million in campaign contributions from around the country. She achieved national recognition at the 2016 Democratic National Convention as the first openly transgender person to address a major party convention in the United States.</p>

<p>The Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith <a href="https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/255945/vatican-doctrine-office-transgender-identifying-people-can-be-baptized" target="_blank" rel="noopener">issued new guidance</a> Wednesday in favor of granting the rite of baptism, citing the Church&#8217;s Code of Canon law, which says &#8220;for the child to be baptized there must be a well-founded hope that he or she will be educated in the Catholic religion.&#8221;</p>
<p>The declaration, signed Oct. 31 by <a class="tpstyle" title="Pope Francis" href="https://www.upi.com/topic/Pope_Francis/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pope Francis</a> and Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernandez, the dicastery&#8217;s prefect, comes in response to questions raised in July by Bishop Giuseppe Jose Negri, of Brazil, who sought guidance from church leaders on whether transgender or homosexual people were entitled to be baptized or named godparents to a baptized child.</p>
