The victim died of his injuries hours after CHP officers found him burning on the side of the road

Highway Patrol officers found a man burning alive on the side of a highway early Friday morning – and now investigators are asking for the public’s help solving the case.

Authorities had been called to the area after reports of a fire on the side of the freeway, according to the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Office. Then they made a gruesome discovery near the intersection of Sargent Crossing and Highway 101 –  a man inside the flames. Local deputies joined the investigation at around 2:48 a.m.

They rushed the victim, later identified as 40-year-old Gilroy resident Jerry Mungaray, to the Santa Clara County Valley Medical Center Trauma Unit in critical condition – with severe burns across his body, according to the sheriff’s department.

Michael Goodwin: Barr eats Nadler's lunch during testimony

He came, he saw, he ate their lunch. Bill Barr, denied a meal break, feasted instead on a gaggle of Democratic amateurs.

Another congressional hearing, another Dem disaster. They planned a public hanging of the attorney general and spent weeks constructing their scaffold. He is corrupt, a liar, a toady, they and their media handmaidens assured us, and the House Judiciary Committee will reveal all.

Two obstacles quickly became apparent. The first is that the Dems were led by Rep. Jerry Nadler, whose rabidness is exceeded only by his haplessness.

Trump undermines his pandemic response with more misinformation and self-obsession

President Donald Trump's return as the face of the Covid-19 response has deteriorated into a misinformation masterclass that explains why America is in such a mess.

In an extraordinary performance Tuesday, as the daily death toll again soared toward 1,000 and the number of Americans dead approached a tragic milestone of 150,000, Trump again foreswore the most basic requirements of national leadership in a crisis.
White House briefing that turned almost into a parody of his own mismanagement of the pandemic, he complained that the government's top infectious diseases expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, had better approval ratings than he did.
    He painted a misleading picture of a viral surge still raging across Southern and Western states that is showing new signs of spreading deeper into the heartland, saying large portions of the country were "corona-free."
    And he launched a stunning new pitch for hydroxychloroquine, the anti-malaria drug beloved by conservative media but that has not been shown in rigorous clinical trials to be an effective treatment for Covid-19.

    Possible But Not Certain Of Oxford COVID-19 Vaccine This Year

    The experimental vaccine, which has been licensed to AstraZeneca, produced an immune response in early-stage clinical trials.

    The University of Oxford's possible COVID-19 vaccine could be rolled out by the end of the year but there is no certainty that will happen, the lead developer of the vaccine said on Tuesday.

    The experimental vaccine, which has been licensed to AstraZeneca, produced an immune response in early-stage clinical trials, data showed on Monday, preserving hopes it could be in use by the end of the year.

    "The end of the year target for getting vaccine rollout, it's a possibility but there's absolutely no certainty about that because we need three things to happen," Sarah Gilbert told BBC Radio.

    She said it needed to be shown to work in late-stage trials, there needed to be large quantities manufactured and regulators had to agree quickly to license it for emergency use.

    "All of these three things have to happen and come together before we can start seeing large numbers of people vaccinated," she said.
