THANKS. ALL RIGHT TO THE
FORECAST IN ITS WIPERS ON FOR
THE EVENING COMMUTE, MAYBE
INTERMITTENT. WE’RE NOT SURE YET
, BUT STORM TRACKER 4 SHOWING A
LOT OF RAIN ROLLING THROUGH THE
AREA OF THE GOOD NEWS IS WE’RE
NOT EXPECTING ANYTHING SEVERE
RIGHT? THAT IS THE MOST
IMPORTANT POINT TO MAKE NOTHING
THAT YOU HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT.
WHEN YOU GO TO BED. THERE MIGHT
BE ONE OF JUST A HANDFUL OF
SMALL LITTLE LIGHTNING STRIKES
AND EVEN THAT WILL BE VERY
LIMITED. NO SEVERE WEATHER OR
ANYTHING. SO HERE’S THE RAIN
JUST GRADUALLY INCREASING ACROSS
THE AREA. NOW WE’RE KIND OF
RUNNING ACROSS THE 6 96 QUARTER
HERE. YOU CAN SEE RYAN RIGHT
THROUGH WARREN HERE AND SEE HIM
COMING BACK ALL THE WAY THROUGH.
FERNDALE, BERKELEY, CLAWSON
SOUTHFIELD BACK TOWARD
FARMINGTON HILLS, AND YOU CAN
SEE INTO THE NORTHVILLE PLYMOUTH
CANTON AREA HERE. WE’VE GOT THIS
ALL GENERALLY LIGHT RAIN AND
AGAIN. WHAT WE’RE WATCHING IS
BACK FARTHER TO THE WEST AND TO
THE SOUTH. YOU CAN SEE THAT RAIN
INCREASES HERE IN INTENSITY, AND
IT’S JUST HEAVY RAIN,
ENLIGHTENED TRACKERS TURN ON NOT
SEEING A WHOLE LOT OF LIGHTNING
THERE. SO THROUGH THE EVENING
HOURS, WE’RE JUST BASICALLY IN
THE SIXTIES WERE NOT GOING TO GO
INTO THE FIFTIES. WE’RE JUST
GOING TO STAY WHERE WE ARE
PRETTY MUCH IN THE SIXTIES.
THERE’LL BE A SLOW FALL THROUGH
THE EVENING HOURS. ALL RIGHT,
DON’T FORGET THE LOCAL
FORECASTERS, APP. ON A DAY LIKE
TODAY, YOU NEED IT. YOU NEED
THAT REAL TIME RADAR. AND ALSO
IF YOU WERE THE KIDS, YOU HAVE
OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES. WE HAVE A
LIGHTNING PAGE REAL TIME
LIGHTNING ON THERE AS WELL.
THAT’S REAL IMPORTANT. JUST GO
TO THE APP STORE SEARCH UNDER
WDIV’S THE NATION’S BEST WEATHER
APP IS ABSOLUTELY FREE. WE WERE
REPORTED MONDAY ON A SEXUAL
ASSAULT THAT HAPPENED LAST MONTH
INSIDE THE BLUE DECK PARKING
GARAGE IN DETROIT METRO AIRPORT
. NOW COMES WORD THE MAN CHARGED
IN THAT INCIDENT. RAYMOND
ANTHONY JACKSON JR. IS ACCUSED
OF ATTACKING ANOTHER WOMAN
AROUND THE SAME TIME. OSBORNE IS
LIVE AT BTW IN ROMULUS TONIGHT,
PAM, THE PROSECUTOR, SAYING THIS
PARTICULAR INCIDENT WAS
ESPECIALLY VIOLENT. YEAH THAT’S
BECAUSE THE VICTIM IN THIS CASE
HAD HER HEAD SLAMMED TO THE
PAVEMENT MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE
THAT SEXUAL ASSAULT TOOK PLACE.
IT’S WHY PROSECUTORS ARE ARGUING
THAT JACKSON IS A DANGER TO THE
COMMUNITY OF FLIGHT RISK. HERE’S
WHAT ELSE WE LEARNED ABOUT THESE
CHARGES AND HIS PAST IN COURT
TODAY. RAYMOND ANTHONY JACKSON
JR. FACING NEW SEXUAL ASSAULT
CHARGES TODAY AFTER AUTHORITIES
SAY THE 32 YEAR OLD ALLEGEDLY
ATTACKED A WOMAN AT THE AIRPORTS
BLUE DECK PARKING GARAGE HAD
HAPPENED MAY 17TH ACCORDING TO
PROSECUTOR KIM WORTHY, JACKSON
CAME UP BEHIND A WOMAN WHO HAD
JUST PARKED EARLY THAT MORNING.
HE GRABBED HER BY THE HAIR
THROUGH IT TO THE GROUND. AND
THEN THEY SAY JACKSON SLAMMED
HER HEAD ON THE PAVEMENT SEVERAL
TIMES BEFORE SEXUALLY ASSAULTING
HER 34 YEAR OLD VICTIM. A WOMAN
FROM WESTLAND WASN’T THE ONLY
ONE DAYS EARLIER. INVESTIGATORS
SAY JACKSON ATTEMPTED TO ASSAULT
ANOTHER WOMAN IN THE SAME
PARKING GARAGE. HE HAS BEEN
CHARGED WITH KIDNAPPING AND
INDECENT EXPOSURE IN THAT CASE.
AT TODAY’S ARRAIGNMENT. WE
LEARNED MORE ABOUT JACKSON’S
CRIMINAL RECORD, WHICH INCLUDES
A STALKING AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
CASE FROM JUST LAST YEAR.
THERE’S THREE SEPARATE WOMEN WHO
HAVE P POS OUT AGAINST HIM.
OBVIOUSLY, THE COURT KNOWS THAT
UM, I SAW WITH INTENTION GROUP
BADLY HARM LESS THAN MURDER IS A
SERIOUS CHARGE AS WELL AS
CRIMINAL SEXUAL CONDUCT IN THE
SECOND DEGREE. I THINK THAT MR
JACKSON IS A DANGER OF COMMUNITY
AND NOT TO BE OVERLY DRAMATIC OR
ANYTHING, BUT HE’S A MENACE TO
SOCIETY AND WOMEN EVERYWHERE.
AND JACKSON’S ATTORNEY SAYS HIS
CLIENT IS RESOLUTE AND HIS
INNOCENCE AGAINST THESE CHARGES.
THE JUDGE SET BOND AT $150,000
IF HE IS ABLE TO POST THAT HE
WOULD ONLY BE RELEASED WITH A
TETHER. HE’S DUE BACK IN COURT.
NEXT WEEK, REPORTING LIVE AT
DETROIT METRO AIRPORT ON PAMELA
OSBORNE, LOCAL 4. ALRIGHT, PAM,
WE APPRECIATE IT. THE FAMILY OF
ONE OF THE VICTIMS IN THE OXFORD
SCHOOL SHOOTING HAS FILED A
LAWSUIT AGAINST THE DISTRICT 17
YEAR OLD MADISON. BALDWIN IS ONE
OF FOUR STUDENTS KILLED AT THE
SCHOOL LAST NOVEMBER. HER
FAMILY’S ATTORNEY SAYS THEY ARE
SUING THE DISTRICT AS WELL AS
EMPLOYEES WHO THEY CLAIM WERE
RESPONSIBLE FOR ALLOWING THE
SHOOTING TO HAPPEN. MEDICINES
MOTHER SPOKE OUT PUBLICLY TODAY
FOR THE FIRST TIME SHE TALKED
ABOUT HOW THEIR FAMILY IS COPING
WITH THEIR LOSS. AND WHEN I HAVE
TO LOOK AT THEIR FACES EVERY
DAY. AND EXPLAIN TO THEM. WHY
HER SISTER LOST HER BEST FRIEND.
WHY HER OTHER SISTER THINKS
SHE’S STILL SLEEPING. WHY HER
BROTHER ASSOCIATES HER WITH AN
URN IN OUR LIVING ROOM. IT’S NOT
FAIR. ATTORNEYS FOR OXFORD
SCHOOLS SAY THEY’RE REVIEWING
THIS LAWSUIT AND ANOTHER SUIT
FROM A 17 YEAR OLD STUDENT THAT
WAS SHOT AND INJURED IN THE
SHOOTING. SURVIVORS OF FORMER
USA GYMNASTICS DOCTOR LARRY
NASSAR HAVE FILED A LAWSUIT
AGAINST THE FBI NOW ABOUT 90
VICTIMS, INCLUDING SIMONE BILES,
ALY RAISMAN AND MCKAYLA,
MARONEY. SAY THE FBI NEEDED TO
ACT MORE QUICKLY AND COULD HAVE
PREVENTED THEIR ABUSE. THEY’RE
SEEKING $1 BILLION IN DAMAGES.
FBI AGENTS FIRST RECEIVED
ACCUSATIONS ABOUT NASSER IN 2015
, BUT NASA WASN’T ARRESTED UNTIL
2016 DURING AN INVESTIGATION BY
MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY
POLICE. UNDER FEDERAL LAW, THE
FBI HAS UP TO SIX MONTHS TO
RESPOND TO THOSE CLAIMS. WELL
THE HITS KEEP COMING AT A HOUSE
IN HIGHLAND PARK THAT’S BECOME A
MAGNET FOR OUT OF CONTROL
VEHICLES. THE NUMBER OF
ACCIDENTS NOW IN THE DOUBLE
DIGITS AS DRIVERS PLOW RIGHT
THROUGH THE FENCE OUTSIDE.
SHAWN LEY IS LIVE TONIGHT WITH A
CLOSER LOOK. AND SEAN, YOU ARE
ON YET ANOTHER STREET, WHERE
SPEED IS A BIG FACTOR. THAT IS
CORRECT. WE GOTTA GET TO THE
BOTTOM OF WHY DRIVERS JUST CAN’T
HANDLE THE INTERSECTION YOU SEE
BEHIND ME? JUST THIS WEEK, THIS
ONE WAY SIGN GOT TAKEN OUT BY A
SPEEDING DRIVER. THAT THING’S
HEAVY ALL DAY LONG. WE WATCHED
JAY HERE WORK ON THE SECTION OF
THAT FENCE. AND LOOK, WE PUT
DRONE FOUR UP TO SHOW YOU WHY
DRIVERS JUST LOSE CONTROL RIGHT
AT THIS FENCE AND PLOW THROUGH
IT SO OFTEN. ISABELLA HOW MANY
TIMES HAS YOUR FENCE BEEN HIT
ABOUT 11 TIMES? HOW CAN THAT BE?
11 TIMES? 11 TIMES TIME AFTER
TIME AFTER TIME DRIVERS CONTINUE
TO PLOW RIGHT THROUGH ISABELLA
GOTTI’S PRIVACY FENCE AT NIGHT
WHEN PEOPLE DRINKING AND THEY
COME THROUGH HERE, THEY LOSE
CONTROL OR THEY COME THROUGH THE
YARD. THEY USED TO HIT THE HOUSE
AND THEN I PUT THE FENCE UP. SO
NOW THEY’RE TEARING DOWN THE
FENCE. AND IF TONE DOWN THE
FENCE THREE TIMES IN 90 DAYS.
PUT DRONE FOR UP TO SHOW YOU AND
DADDY CAN EXPLAIN HOW THIS KEEPS
HAPPENING. SHE LIVES AT THE
CORNER OF JOHN R. AND THE
DAVISON SERVICE DRIVE IN
HIGHLAND PARK, AND THIS IS ALL
ABOUT DRIVERS GOING TOO FAST,
AND THEY COME OFF THE FREEWAY
AND THEY’RE ROLLING. AND WHEN IT
IF THEY CAN MAKE IT THROUGH THAT
FIRST LIGHT ON WOODWORK. THEY
SEEM LIKE THEY SPEED UP AND WHEN
THEY GET HERE, THEN FULL FULL
GEAR. AND IF A CAR IS GOING THIS
WAY, THEY CAN’T STOP AND BAM!
ONE TIME GADDY WAS IN HER YARD,
RAKING LEAVES A CAR CAME THROUGH
HER FENCE AND HIT HER AND I’VE
BEEN GOING THROUGH REHAB AND
DIFFERENT MEDICAL SITUATIONS.
EVERY SINCE REPAIRING KEEP
PATCHING. IT USED TO BE
BEAUTIFUL, BUT AS YOU SEE, IT’S
PATCHED. AS YOU SEE, IT’S PATCH.
BUT LOOK, ISABELLA SAYS SHE
WOULD LIKE TO SEE SPEED HUMPS
HERE. HERE COMES THE CAR LIKELY
GOING A LITTLE TOO FAST FOR THE
CONDITIONS HERE AND LOOK AT THE
ONE WAY SIGN WAS RIGHT THERE.
SOMEONE TOOK THAT OUT. SHE WANTS
TO SPEED HUMPS. BUT THE OFFENSE
HERE IS ON HER PROPERTY, SO IT
MAY BE UP TO HER TO PUT SOME
REFLECTIVE TAPE UP HERE. MAYBE
EVEN A CAUTION SIGN. KIMBERLY
JASON. I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE THAT
IS. I DON’T EVEN KNOW IF THAT
WOULD HELP SEAN AND WONDERING,
THOUGH, WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT
GETTING, AND SHE SAID THAT SHE
HAS INSURANCE AND INSURANCE
WOULD HELP HER WITH ANY OF THOSE
REPAIRS. WAS SHE TALKING ABOUT A
DOZEN TIMES OR EVEN MORE. SHE’S
JUST TALKING ABOUT THE LAST TWO
YEARS BY TO MAKE THAT CLEAR
DOZEN TIMES. THE THING IS, SHE
SAYS INSURANCE PAID ONE TIME,
HOWEVER, THAT WAS ONE TIME ALL
THE PANELS THAT NEED TO BE
REPLACED OUT OF POCKET AND SHE
HAS REPLACED ONE BY ONE EVERY
TIME SOMEONE PLOWS THROUGH HERE,
SO SORRY, OKAY. SEAN THANKS.
