The moment a Sacramento, CA. judge was about to start the traffic trial of the defendant (Dr. Scott Green) who was in the operating room, helping to operate on a patient, when he jumped on zoom to be present for his trial. The judge wasn’t having any of it
I would love to interview the patient on the operating table. If you know them, my DMs are open.
You have to wonder how this doctor didn’t think he’d get into trouble. Not with the judge, but the California medial board.

I just found out about the story yesterday.
10-year-old Victor Peterzen was hit by a Jeep driver in Houston six months ago and he died because of it.
Nothing has happened to the driver.
Nothing.
I’m asking why, starting with @houstonpolice.
“Victor was riding northbound on Maux Street when he failed to yield the right-of-way at a stop sign and was struck by the Jeep traveling westbound on Knoboak Drive, according to the Houston Police Department,” reports the Houston Chronicle. houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-t…
The Chronicle also noted that the case was going to be presented to a grand jury because it involved a juvenile.

This was the moment South Dakota’s attorney General was told that the face of the man he hit and killed actually came through his windshield to the point where investigators say the victim’s glasses were found in the attorney generals car. The AG insists: he thought he hit a deer
Journalists at the @Argus911 watched 2 interrogation videos with the AG and did a nice job breaking some key moments

This is a big story in South Dakota that’s not getting enough attention nationally. The states attorney general could be impeached pretty soon after he killed a man, with his vehicle, but he’s only been charged with misdemeanor crimes.
Here’s the story with no paywall apnews.com/article/76bd67…
This is the victim: Joseph Boever argusleader.com/story/news/202…

.@JoshGuilloryUSA, Mayor-President of Lafayette, LA, calls @LouisianaGov “hypocritical” for criticizing the city councils rejection of a mask mandate. Guillory, who won’t use city resources to enforce a state mandate, makes a valid point: the state isn’t enforcing its own mandate
The mayor president’s reference to zero enforcement taken appears to be a reaction to our report, 5 days ago, which noted that of 3,669 masking complaints received since the Governor instituted a mask mandate, zero enforcement has been taken.
The state fire marshal, which is an enforcement agency tasked by the governors with enforcing the mask mandate, has chosen to educate rather than punish, according to the agency’s spokeswoman.
