DOWNTOWN DETROIT. LOCAL 4 NEWS

AFTERNOON, EVERYBODY. I’M KAREN
DREW, FIRST OF FOUR. HERE WE GO
AGAIN. MORE SNOW IS MOVING INTO
METRO DETROIT RIGHT NOW, JUST IN
TIME FOR YOUR EVENING DRIVE, AND
IT IS JUST THE START OF A REALLY
SNOWY WEEKEND ARE EXACT TRACK.
40 RADAR HAS YOU COVERED AND KIM
ADAMS IS TRACKING IT ALL FOR US.
KIM HEY, KAREN. WELL, IF YOU
LIVE ON THE EAST SIDE, YOU’VE
GOT SOME TIME HERE. IN FACT,
YOU’LL MAKE IT THROUGH A GOOD
PART OF THE EVENING RUSH HOUR
DRY IN MACOMB COUNTY, ALSO ON
THE EAST SIDE IN DETROIT HEADED
DOWN RIVER BUT THE WEST SIDE
STARTING TO COME DOWN RIGHT NOW
IN HOWELL, AND IT IS MOVING OFF
TO THE EAST. SO HOW WILL
HEARTLAND BRIGHTON GETTING SOME
SNOW RIGHT ALONG? I 96 A FEW
FLURRIES NOW IN WEST BLOOMFIELD
AND WATERFORD, BUT DRY AND
FARMINGTON HILLS. CANTON AND
ALSO PLYMOUTH AND NORTHVILLE.
BUT YOU CAN SEE ON THE EAST SIDE
STILL DRY. AND HARPER WOODS,
WARREN HAMTRAMCK AND ALSO IN
DOWNTOWN DETROIT’S ARE WIDEN THE
VIEW FOR YOU AGAIN, HEAVIER SNOW
BACK OUT TO THE WEST. BUT THIS
IS JUST A CLIPPER SYSTEM COMING
THROUGH. IT’S NOT GOING TO BRING
US MUCH, BUT IT COULD BRING US
AS MUCH AS A FRESH INCH OF SNOW
THROUGH THE EVENING RUSH HOUR
UNTIL ABOUT 10 O’CLOCK TONIGHT.
TOMORROW, TEMPERATURES ARE IN
THE TWENTIES. IT’S GONNA BE A
CHILLY DAY AND ALSO MORE SNOW
HEADED OUR WAY. I’LL HAVE YOUR
FORECAST FOR THE WEEKEND COMING

MAN ACCUSED OF STABBING A 14
YEAR OLD OAKLAND COUNTY GIRL IS
BEING HELD ON $2 MILLION BOND
INVESTIGATORS SAY 18 YEAR OLD
JULIAN PINEDO OF ILLINOIS MET
THE VICTIM ONLINE TRAVELED TO
HER HOME IN SPRINGFIELD TOWNSHIP
. THEY SAY HE BELIEVED THEY WERE
GOING TO HAVE SEX AND WHEN SHE
REFUSED, HE STABBED HER SEVERAL
TIMES TODAY IN COURT. WE LEARNED
TO NATO WAS ACTUALLY ON
PROBATION FOR A FELONY
CONVICTION BACK IN ILLINOIS. THE
GIRL REMAINS HOSPITALIZED THIS
AFTERNOON. GOVERNOR GRETCHEN
WHITMER IS PUSHING HER NEW
LEGISLATIVE PLANS JUST DAYS
AFTER HER STATE OF THE STATE
ADDRESS. TAX CUTS ARE ALREADY IN
THE WORKS, AND SHE WANTS FREE
PRE K FOR ALL FOUR YEAR OLDS IN
MICHIGAN. THE GOVERNOR IS
ENJOYING DEMOCRATIC CONTROL OF
THE STATE LEGISLATURE, BUT SAYS
SHE IS OPEN TO ANY PROBLEM
SOLVING. WHEN DEMOCRATS HAVE AN
OPPORTUNITY TO LEAD WE STILL
MAKE A SEAT AT THE TABLE FOR
EVERY PERSON WHO’S GOT A GENUINE
INTEREST IN SOLVING PROBLEMS.
AND WE LIVE OUR VALUES AND WE’RE
GONNA ACTUALLY DO THE WORK TO
MAKE PEOPLE’S LIVES BETTER. THE
LEGISLATURE HAS ALREADY PASSED A
BOOST TO THE EARNED INCOME TAX
CREDIT TO HELP ABOUT 700,000 LOW
INCOME WORKERS. IT ALSO PASSED A
BILL TO REPEAL A RETIREMENT TAX
ON PUBLIC EMPLOYEE PENSIONS.
SOME REPUBLICANS ARGUED THAT
BILL COULD GO FURTHER. BOTH UNDO
CHANGES MADE DURING THE SNYDER
ADMINISTRATION. WE ARE GETTING
OUR VERY FIRST LOOK AT VIDEO OF
A HAMMER ATTACK ON THE HUSBAND
OF FORMER HOUSE SPEAKER NANCY
PELOSI. IT COULD BE VERY
DISTURBING TO SOME VIEWERS. A
BODY CAM CAUGHT WHAT HAPPENED AS
POLICE CAME TO THE DOOR.
PELOSI’S SAN FRANCISCO HOME
WHAT’S GOING ON, MAN? GOOD. HI A
HAMMER? NOPE HEY, WHAT IS GOING
ON RIGHT NOW? THE VIDEO GETS
CHAOTIC AFTER THAT, AS POLICE
TRY TO HELP PELOSI AND ARREST
THE SUSPECT, DAVID DE PAPE,
PELOSI SAYS THE MAN BROKEN WAS
LOOKING FOR HIS WIFE. THE FORMER
HOUSE SPEAKER WAS JUST ASKED
ABOUT THE VIDEO AND HAD THIS TO
SAY. I HAVE NOT SEEN THE BREAK
IN AND I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO
INTENTION OF SEEING THE DEADLY
ASSAULT ON MY HUSBAND’S LIFE. I
WON’T BE MAKING ANY MORE
STATEMENTS ABOUT THIS CASE.
PROCEED EXCEPT TO AGAIN THANK
PEOPLE AND INFORM THEM OF
POSSIBLE PROGRESS JUST TO
CLARIFY THE LUCKILY THAT ATTACK
WAS NOT A DEADLY ASSAULT. 82
YEAR OLD PAUL PELOSI IS
RECOVERING FROM A SKULL FRACTURE
AND OTHER INJURIES. THIS ASPECT
IS FACING FEDERAL AND STATE
CHARGES. THE CITY OF MEMPHIS,
TENNESSEE, IS ON EDGE RIGHT NOW
WAITING TO SEE THE ARREST VIDEO
AND VOLLEYED THIS MAN, TYREE
NICHOLS. FIVE FORMER POLICE
OFFICERS ARE FACING CRIMINAL
CHARGES IN NICOLE’S DEATH AFTER
WHAT’S BEING DESCRIBED AS A VERY
VIOLENT ARREST. THE PUBLIC HAS
NOT SEEN THE VIDEO, BUT IT
SHOULD BE RELEASED IN JUST A FEW
HOURS. KIMBERLY GILL IS IN THE
NEWSROOM FOR US TO TELL US WHERE
THINGS STAND RIGHT NOW. KIM
AFTERNOON THERE HAVE BEEN
REPEATED CALLS TO KEEP THINGS
PEACEFUL TONIGHT FROM TYREE
NICHOLS FAMILY, THE MAYOR OF
MEMPHIS, AND EVEN PRESIDENT JOE
BIDEN. WE’VE SEEN EXPLOSIVE
REACTIONS TO SIMILAR ARREST
VIDEOS DATING BACK TO THE ANGER
OVER GEORGE FLOYD’S DEATH AT THE
HANDS. OF POLICE. IN THIS CASE,
FIVE FORMER POLICE OFFICERS ARE
ALREADY CHARGED IN NICOLE’S
DEATH, FACING SEVERAL CHARGES,
INCLUDING SECOND DEGREE MURDER.
NICHOLS WAS PULLED OVER JANUARY
7TH FOR RECKLESS DRIVING. THERE
WAS A CONFRONTATION WITH POLICE
AND HE RAN OFF. OFFICERS FOUND
HIM AND HE WAS ARRESTED DURING
ANOTHER CONFRONTATION. DESCRIBED
AS VERY VIOLENT. NICHOLS DIED
THREE DAYS LATER. THE OFFICERS
IN THIS CASE ARE ALL BLACK. BUT
NICHOLS FAMILY SAYS THEIR RACE
DOESN’T MAKE A DIFFERENCE. SOME
RELATIVES HAVE ALREADY WATCHED
THE VIDEO AND DESCRIBED WHAT
THEY SAW DURING AN INTERVIEW
WITH CNN. I SAW OFFICERS HITTING
ON HIM. I SAW OFFICERS KICKING
HIM. ONE OFFICER KICKED HIM LIKE
HE WAS KICKING A FOOTBALL A
COUPLE OF TIMES. PEOPLE TRY TO
SAY BLACK PEOPLE. TELL ME TRY TO
GO AFTER WHITE OFFICERS SUCH
TRUE? WE DON’T CARE WHAT COLOR
THE OFFICER IS. WE WON’T BAD
OFFICERS TAKEN OFF THE BOARDS.
RIGHT NOW. INVESTIGATORS SAY
THEY DELAYED THE RELEASE OF THE
VIDEO SO THEY COULD FINISH AS
MANY INTERVIEWS AS POSSIBLE
BEFORE IT WAS MADE PUBLIC. IT
SHOULD BE RELEASED AFTER SEVEN
PM POLICE FELT IT WAS BETTER TO
GO PUBLIC AFTER SCHOOLS HAVE
BEEN DISMISSED, AND MOST PEOPLE
ARE HOME FROM WORK WILL HAVE
MORE WHEN YOU JOIN US TONIGHT AT
FIVE AND CONTINUING COVERAGE
TONIGHT AT 11 AS WELL, BUT FOR
NOW, KAREN WILL SEND IT BACK TO
YOU FOR MORE NEWS OF THE DAY.
ALRIGHT, WE DO APPRECIATE IT.
THANK YOU, KIM. NOW WE ARE
SEEING MORE ENCOURAGING SIGNS.
INFLATION IS STARTING TO EASE,
BUT CONSUMER SPENDING COULD BE
THROWING UP A YELLOW FLAG ABOUT
THE ECONOMY. THE COMMERCE
DEPARTMENT SAYS PRICES ROSE 5%
IN DECEMBER YEAR OVER YEAR THAT
IS DOWN FROM THE 5.5% INCREASE
REPORTED IN NOVEMBER. IT’S THE
THIRD DROP IN A ROW, BUT
CONSUMER SPENDING FELL 0.2% FROM
NOVEMBER TO DECEMBER. AND THAT
COULD SHOW CONSUMERS WILLINGNESS
TO SPEND IS STARTING TO CRACK,
WHICH THEN COULD START TO SLOW
THE ECONOMY. THE FEDERAL RESERVE
HAS VIGOROUSLY RAISED INTEREST
RATES TO SLOW INFLATION, BUT
HOPES TO AVOID A RECESSION. THE
FED IS EXPECTED TO RAISE RATES
AGAIN AT ITS MEETING NEXT WEEK.
IT’S BEEN A SOMBER DAY AROUND
THE WORLD FOR THOSE STOPPING TO
REMEMBER THE HOLOCAUST AND
HONORING THOSE WHO SURVIVED
SURVIVORS FROM GERMANY TO
POLAND, ENGLAND OR SHARING THEIR
STORIES TRYING TO MAKE SURE THE
WORK NEVER FORGETS. IN LONDON,
KING CHARLES AND QUEEN CAMILLA
MET WITH SURVIVORS AND LIT
CANDLES IN REMEMBRANCE TODAY ARE
MEGAN WOODS SPOKE WITH THE LOCAL
SURVIVOR WHO WILL BE SHARING HER
STORY TONIGHT. TO MARK HOLOCAUST
REMEMBRANCE DAY. SOPHIE
KLINSMANN IS 93 YEARS OLD, BUT
SHE ONLY STARTED SHARING HER
STORY. SEVEN YEARS AGO, SHE
REALIZED DESPITE THE PAIN IT
TAKES TO SHARE HER STORY THAT
SHE NEEDS TO TELL PEOPLE WHAT
HAPPENED SO IT DOESN’T HAPPEN
AGAIN. I’M NERVOUS, BUT I’M
DOING IT FOR A GOOD CAUSE. IF
YOU EVER MEET SOPHIE KLINSMANN,
SHE’LL SHOW YOU PICTURES OF HER
FAMILY. THIS IS MY GRANDDAUGHTER
RACHEL’S WEDDING AND WILL GLADLY
TELL YOU HOW HOW LUCKY SHE IS.
BUT THERE’S ONE PHOTO THAT’S
HARD TO TALK ABOUT. THAT WAS ME.
RIGHT AFTER I WAS LIBERATED. AH
WAS 16 YEARS OLD HOLOCAUST
SURVIVOR. IT’S THE EARLIEST
PHOTOS SHE HAS OF HERSELF. NO
BABY PICTURES, PICTURES OF HER
PARENTS OR OLDER SIBLINGS. HER
HUSBAND WAS A SURVIVOR TO VOWED
TO NOT TELL THEIR CHILDREN. WE
WERE AFRAID WHEN YOU’RE YOUNG,
AND YOU HEAR SUCH UNIMAGINABLE
HORROR. THAT IT WOULD AFFECT
THEM. THEIR DAUGHTER, LORI
KLINSMANN, ELLIS, ONLY FOUND OUT
SEVEN YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS ON A
CRUISE WITH MY FAMILY, I CAME
BACK AND MY MOM SAID I HAVE
SOMETHING I WANT TO SHARE WITH
YOU. I HOPE YOU WON’T BE MAD. I
FINALLY OPENED UP AND SHARED MY
STORY. IT’S VIDEOTAPED AND IT’S
AT THE HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL
CENTER. SOPHIE WAS JUST 10 YEARS
OLD LIVING IN POLAND WHEN HER
FAMILY WAS FORCED INTO A GHETTO
ENCLOSED BY BARBED WIRES. SHE
WATCHED HER MOM, DAD AND 17 YEAR
OLD BROTHER SUFFER AND DIE.
YEARS LATER, SOPHIE, HER SISTER
AND OLDEST BROTHER WERE TAKEN TO
AUSCHWITZ CONCENTRATION CAMP AND
TO SOLDIERS CAME UP TO US RIGHT
AWAY AND TOOK OUR BROTHER AWAY.
HER STORIES ARE MOVING. SO MUCH
THAT LAURIE STARTED TO DIG FOUND
OUT LIKE WHERE HER MOTHER AND
HER BROTHER WERE BURIED THE
EXACT SPOT AND WE WENT BACK TO
POLAND, SHE PUT HER MOTHER AND
AUNTS JOURNEY OF SURVIVAL INTO A
BOOK, SO THEIR STORY WILL NEVER
BE FORGOTTEN AND USED AS A TOOL
TO EDUCATE AMAZINGLY PROUD OF
HER. THEY ARE. SHE COULD TELL
THE STORY. THIS IS THE BOOK
LAURIE ROAD, TOO, AND SHE WILL
BE AT FIRST UNITED METHODIST
CHURCH TALKING ABOUT THAT SOPHIE
, HER MOTHER WILL BE SHARING HER
STORY OF SURVIVAL. AND THEN
THERE WILL ALSO BE A GI
LIBERATORS, SPEAKING AGAIN AT
SEVEN O’CLOCK AT FIRST UNITED
METHODIST CHURCH OF TROY, IF YOU
WANT THAT INFORMATION, THAT
ADDRESS WILL PUT IT ON
CLICKONDETROIT.COM IN OAKLAND
COUNTY. I’M MEGAN WOODS LOCAL 4.
AND LORI IS WORKING ON GETTING
THAT BOOK INTO SCHOOLS FOR
STUDENTS TO READ WHEN THEY’RE
LEARNING ABOUT THE HOLOCAUST IS
ALREADY IN THREE LOCAL HIGH
SCHOOLS. SO AHEAD HERE FIRST AT
FOUR GAY RIGHTS ACTIVISTS HAVE
CALLED A DISCRIMINATION. NOW THE
FDA COULD BE CHANGING THE RULES
ABOUT WHO CAN DONATE BLOOD.
WE’RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE
NEW SCREENING PROCESS. ALSO A
NEW DEAL TO BRING THIS BIG CAT
BACK FROM EXTINCTION IN ONE
COUNTRY. I’LL TELL YOU WHO’S
STEPPING UP TO HELP AND
MCDONALD’S TESTING SOMETHING NEW
THAT COULD HELP PROTECT THE
ENVIRONMENT. I’LL TELL YOU
