MPR’s Tim Nelson reports: “Edward Muhammad Johnson was formally charged Thursday with second-degree murder in connection with the death of Stillwater prison corrections officer Joseph Gomm. Johnson, 42, was also charged with second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon. Washington County Attorney Pete Orput also said Thursday he intends to take the case to a grand jury, which is required for first-degree murder charges in Minnesota.” Seems like a really wise use of city resources. KMSP-TV story says, “A contract obtained by KSTP details the agreement between the city of Minneapolis and an outside consultant to investigate the leak of a draft report that alleged Minneapolis Police Department officers repeatedly asked medics to sedate people with ketamine. According to the contract, Minneapolis will pay NeuVest $275 an hour to conduct ‘neutral workplace investigation.’ The firm's compensation is not to exceed $100,000, the contract states.” Feeling less north-y: For MPR, Cody Nelson writes, “Everywhere in Minnesota's feeling the effects of climate change. And the warming climate affects each of those places a bit differently. Northern Minnesota's Lake Superior shoreline is no exception. … Big rains and snowstorms are getting larger, and more frequent. Ask North Shore residents and they'll probably tell you it's getting wetter. There's data to back it up, too.” Read More. |
