That semi truck versus car crash near the university of Minnesota today: that’s called an “underride” when the car goes under the trailer. Preventable in many cases regardless of fault. Here’s an explainer: youtube.com/shorts/es7Uox6ZR…

We see no businesses have donated yet. We’d like to be the first to help. Anyone know how to get a hold of this boy? Or put him in touch with us? @PioneerPress

Here’s a take: I’ve heard many State’s examples of what “beyond a reasonable doubt” in jury instructions. The Massachusetts instruction, read by the Judge in the video below, is one of the best I’ve heard from any State. 👇
🚨 BREAKING: The judge in the Lindsay Clancy case is ADMONISHING jurors who are REFUSING to follow his instructions It sounds like there is a DISPUTE among jurors. He is NOT declaring a mistrial. "First off, I want to remind you that you are REQUIRED to follow my instructions on the law as I gave them to you." The judge is reminding them what REASONABLE DOUBT actually means. It's clear there are certain jurors simply REFUSING to take their role as impartial jurors seriously.

We had a good laugh at Nick’s advice. 😂
👋 One last chance to hang with @93xhams at the Fair! They're wrapping up their State Fair appearances this Friday after the show. Stop by the 93X Booth on Chambers Street, right between Andy's Grille and the Mighty Midway.

Happy to join @FOX9 to explain what happens when a jury is deadlocked like in the #LindsayClancy case.

Skipping required safety procedures leads to dangerous crashes. Crashes like these can kill.

Boys, if you come to St. Paul, MN, dinner is on us! 🙌
🚨#BREAKING: Firefighters in Wisconsin are hailing 5 teenage boys as HEROES after they BUSTED DOWN A DOOR TO A BURNING HOME to save a 91-year-old elderly couple and their family on July 4th. When firefighters arrived, they discovered the boys had already rescued ALL SIX PEOPLE inside the home. According to investigators, the boys noticed what they thought was a bonfire from their home. As they walked closer, they saw a home was on fire and started banging on the doors and windows and heard people yelling. The group of boys BROKE DOWN THE DOOR, ran into the home, called out for the victims and rescued all them. “We started calling out for people and asking if anybody was in there. And then we ended up getting quite a bit of responses. There ended up being five or six people in the house..." "...you are kind of just feeling around, yelling, and then I heard a couple in the room on the left. So I went in there and got them out." As the last person stepped out of the home, the flames intensified. INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!

Today we closed our law office for several hours so our staff could attend a federal sentencing. Not because anyone had to. Because no client should face one of the hardest days of their life alone. This client was facing a 15-year mandatory minimum when we became involved. 👇

Criminal defense isn’t about excusing mistakes. It’s about fighting to make sure every person is seen as more than the worst day of their life. ❤️

Before the hearing, my client and I prayed together. I’m grateful for Katie Benson’s outstanding work as our mitigation specialist and for Tom, Pam, and Marie, who helped our client know he had an entire team standing beside him.

We negotiated that to a 5-year mandatory minimum. The Federal Guidelines were 168–210 months, and the government asked for 168 months. After hearing our mitigation presentation, the judge granted our motion for a downward variance and imposed 84 months.

Heard about a youth baseball team having a lemonade stand to raise 💴 for State tourney. Youth sports are so good for communities. We stopped by & brought a check. Got to meet some great kids from South St Paul. Have a great time kids! ⚾️ 🦬 🇺🇸

This situation surprises some people. Minnesota law says the car driver can’t open their door until it is reasonably safe to do so. Avoidable by bike riders? Often yes. But obligation is on driver.

What you need to know about e-bikes: 1. Riders must be at least 15 years old, even with parental supervision. 2. E‑bike riders must follow the same laws as bicycle riders. In this video, we break down the three classes of E‑bikes and why wearing a helmet is so important.
