Impersonation probe swirls around Corpus Christi lawyer hunter
A Corpus Christi businessman Mauricio Celis, 36, is under investigation for allegedly practicing law without a license and impersonating a sheriff's deputy. He runs CGT Law Group, billed as providing lawyers and auxiliary services, and has ties to Democratic figures including Hillary Clinton. A grand jury probes a deputy badge incident with a naked woman in a hot tub run. Celis' critics label him an ambulance-chaser while his allies face scrutiny over donations and influence.

First known five-planet system orbiting 55 Cancri star
Astronomers announce a fifth planet around sun-like star 55 Cancri, 41 light years away, forming a planetary quintet in the Cancer constellation. The planet, about 45 times Earth’s mass with a 260 day orbit, resides in the habitable zone but resembles Saturn more than Earth. Researchers note the system’s packed nature and ongoing exoplanet discoveries, funded by NASA NSF and UC, with results to appear in Astrophysical Journal.
