SENTENCED TO 12 TO 42 YEARS, JOE
MORRISON RECEIVED 10 TO 42 YEARS
IN PAUL BELL ARE WAS ORDERED TO

ALL THREE MEN WERE PART OF THE
PARAMILITARY GROUP CALLED THE
WOLVERINE WATCHMEN, AND HAD BEEN
FOUND GUILTY OF PROVIDING
MATERIAL SUPPORT FOR A TERRORIST
ACT AND OTHER CHARGES ASSOCIATED
WITH THIS KIDNAPPING PLOT THAT
FELLED IN COURT. ALL THREE MEN
SEEMED REMORSEFUL. REALIZING THE
SEVERITY OF THE SITUATION. SO
SOON OF FAMILY MEDICINE TAKEN
CARE OF. I MADE MISTAKES. I
ACTED RECKLESSLY AND CARELESSLY
WITH MY WORDS. I. AROUND THE
WRONG PEOPLE FED OFF THEIR
ENERGY. I REGRET THAT I EVER LET
HATE HERE AND ANGER INTO MY
HEART THE WAY I DID, I WOULD
LIKE TO APOLOGIZE TO THE
GOVERNOR. UM VERY STRICT
COMMENTS I MADE I KNOW I MET HER
ANY HARM. AND IF I HAD KNOWN
ABOUT THE PLOT, ACTUALLY BEING A
SERIOUS THING, I WOULDN’T HAVE
BEEN WHERE I WAS. WE’LL HAVE
MORE ON WHAT WENT DOWN IN THE
COURTROOM AT FIVE PM VIKTOR
WILLIAMS LOCAL FORM. ALL RIGHT,
VICTOR. THANK YOU. ALSO BREAKING
RIGHT NOW, THE MAN POLICE SAY
THREATENED PRESCHOOLERS, PARENTS
AND OTHERS OUTSIDE OF A JEWISH
SYNAGOGUE IS NOW BEING CHARGED
WITH A FEDERAL CRIME. HASSAN
CHOKER IS ACCUSED OF LYING ON A
FEDERAL FIREARMS FORM ABOUT HIS
PREVIOUS CRIMINAL HISTORY IN
ORDER TO BUY THREE GUNS EARLIER
THIS MONTH, CHOKER HAS A 2017
FELONY CONVICTION AND AT THAT
TIME ALSO HAD A FELONY ASSAULT
CHARGE. PENDING BOTH OF WHICH

FACING ETHNIC INTIMIDATION BASED
ON HIS CONDUCT OUTSIDE OF THAT
JEWISH SYNAGOGUE TODAY, WE
LEARNED HOW LONG THE MAN GUILTY
OF KILLING AND MUTILATING A MAN

LUHANSK E MURDERED BACON AND
EIGHT PARTS OF HIS BODY. DURING
THE SENTENCING HEARING TODAY,
THE FAMILY OF BACON SPOKE OF
THEIR ANGER TOWARDS THE DUNSKY.
AND YOUR SICK, TWISTED MIND. YOU
PROBABLY DON’T THINK YOU DID
ANYTHING WRONG, BUT IN REALITY,
YOU TOOK OUR WORLD AWAY. THIS
CHRISTMAS. I HOPE YOU SUFFER
LIKE WE HAVE BECAUSE YOU WON’T
BE ABLE TO BE WITH YOUR FAMILY.
I HOPE YOU FEEL PAIN AS YOU ARE
ALL ALONE WITH ALL THE YEARS YET
TO COME. MR BACON’S FAMILY,
HENSKE PLEADED GUILTY TO BACON’S
DEATH BACK IN SEPTEMBER. NOW TO
THE ONGOING FIGHT AGAINST
INFLATION. AS EXPECTED
YESTERDAY, THE FEDERAL RESERVE
RAISED ITS KEY INTEREST RATE
AGAIN, MEANTIME, ON CAPITOL HILL
LAWMAKERS SAY THAT THEY ARE
INCHING CLOSER TO A DEAL TO
AVOID A GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN.
NBC’S SUSAN MCGINNIS IS IN
WASHINGTON WITH THE VERY LATEST
HOUSE LAWMAKERS REACHED A DEAL
LATE LAST NIGHT TO AVERT A
GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN FOR NOW AND
THE FEDERAL RESERVE TAKING A
HAMMER TO INFLATION. BUT THIS
TIME A SMALLER HAMMER AND THAT
WE ARE STRONGLY COMMITTED THE
FEDERAL RESERVE TRYING TO KNOCK
OUT INFLATION ONE LAST TIME
BEFORE YEAR END, RAISING ITS KEY
INTEREST RATE HALF A PERCENTAGE
POINT THE SEVENTH HIKE THIS YEAR
AND A MORE MODEST HIKE THAN THE
LAST SEVERAL BUT INDICATING MORE
ARE COMING, AND WE STILL HAVE
SOME WAYS TO GO. EVEN THOUGH
THERE’S BEEN TO BETTER THAN
EXPECTED INFLATION REPORTS THE
FENCE STILL FEELS LIKE THERE’S A
LOT MORE WORK TO DO. INFLATION
IS SLOWING, EVIDENT AND LOWER
GAS PRICES IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION RELIEF, YOU KNOW. WHEN
IT COMES TO LIKE PREVIOUS MONTH.
IT’S SO PAINFUL IN THE PACKET,
BUT FOR MANY PRICES REMAIN
PAINFULLY HIGH. AMERICANS
SHELLING OUT MORE TO TAKE OUT
LOANS AND PAY DOWN CREDIT CARDS
NOW FACE A TOUGHER JOB MARKET.
THERE WILL BE SOME SOFTENING IN
LABOR MARKET CONDITIONS, AND I
WISH THERE WERE COMPLETELY
PAINLESS WAY. TO RESTORE PRICE
STABILITY. THERE ISN’T AND THIS
IS THE BEST WE CAN DO THE 224 ON
CAPITOL HILL, A MORE FESTIVE
MOOD. HOUSE LAWMAKERS REACHING A
LATE NIGHT DEAL TEMPORARILY
FUNDING THE GOVERNMENT BILL. NOW
HEADING TO THE SENATE. WE STILL
HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO TRULY
BIPARTISAN, FULL YEAR BILL
WITHOUT POISON PILLS IS READY
FOR FINAL SENATE PASSAGE BY LATE
NEXT WEEK. THEN I’LL SUPPORT IT.
THE BILL COULD BUY MUCH NEEDED
TIME TO WORK OUT A LARGER
SPENDING PACKAGE COVERING MOST
OF NEXT YEAR AND THE NEW
POSSIBLE DEADLINE TO AVERT A
GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN COMES UP
AGAIN TWO DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS
AND WASHINGTON. SUSAN MCGINNIS
BACK TO YOU. SUSAN. THANK YOU.
SO HOW IS THIS IMPACTING THE NEW
YORK STOCK EXCHANGE? WELL LET’S
TAKE A LOOK RIGHT NOW. STOCKS
ARE TAKING A TUMBLE. THE DOW IS
CURRENTLY DOWN AROUND 800 POINTS
. BOTH THE S AND P. 500 THE
NASDAQ ARE ALSO SEEING STOCKS
DOWN AS WELL. INVESTORS FEAR THE
RECENT RATE HIKE HAS THE FED
TIPPING THE ECONOMY INTO A
RECESSION. IF YOU WERE OUT OF
THE DOOR EARLY THIS MORNING THAN
YOU WERE A PART OF THAT INTENSE
AND HEAVY RAIN AND HIGH WINDS
THAT HIT THE METRO AREA. THIS
WAS THE SCENE AT LAWRENCE AND
DALE AND CENTER LINE WHERE CREWS
WERE FIGHTING A FIRE DUE TO A
DOWNED POWER LINE. BUT ALL OF
THAT RAIN MOVED OUT EARLY THIS
MORNING, AND THIS IS A LIVE LOOK
AT DOWNTOWN DETROIT. RIGHT NOW,
YOU CAN SEE FOLKS OUT ON THE
ICE, ENJOYING THE RANK AT CAMPUS
MARTIUS PARK AND THE WIND HAS
MOVED OUT AS WELL. BUT
TEMPERATURES HONESTLY NOT TOO
BAD RIGHT NOW IN THE FORTIES,
BUT DON’T GET USED TO IT. THIS
IS THE LAST OF IT, RHONDA. I
MEAN, LAST OF IT FOR A GOOD
WHILE, BUT HERE WE’LL START WITH
EXACT TRACK 40 RADAR AND YOU CAN
SEE THE RAIN IS GONE. I MEAN, WE
HAD A GOOD SLUG OF THAT STUFF
THAT CAME IN. I HEARD FROM STEVE
SOBEL AND FARMING. TONIGHT, AND
HE HAD I BELIEVE TWO THIRDS OF
AN INCH OF RAIN THAT CAME
THROUGH THIS MORNING. SO THIS
WAS A GOOD SOAKER. WE ACTUALLY
NEEDED THAT RAIN LOOK AT THE SKY
CAM SHOT LOOKING ACROSS FROM
WINDSOR AT THE SKYLINE. LOOK AT
THAT CLOUD DECK THERE, BUT WE
ALSO HAVE SOME BREAK SOME OPEN
SKY AND THE TEMPERATURES HAVE
RESPONDED. A LOT OF US ARE IN
THE LOW FORTIES RIGHT NOW, AND
AS RHONDA JUST MENTIONED NOTICED
THE WIND THAT HAS REALLY SETTLED
DOWN FROM WHAT WE HAD THIS
MORNING. MOST AREAS IT’S 5 TO 10
MPH. WITH MAYBE JUST A FEW FEW
ROUTINE GUTS IN THERE, BUT
NOTHING OF ANY EXTRAORDINARY
NATURE. SO ATTEMPTS, THOUGH,
ONLY GOING UP ANOTHER MAYBE A
COUPLE OF DEGREES OR SO THIS
AFTERNOON, SO WE’LL CALL IT 43
44 DEGREES. SOME AREAS MAY STAY
IN THE LOW FORTIES WITH AGAIN A
LOT OF CLOUDS, BUT SOME BREAKS
ALLOWING FOR SOME SUNSHINE IN
HERE COMING UP IN JUST A LITTLE
BIT. WE’RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT A
STORM NEXT WEEK THAT COULD GIVE
US A WHITE CHRISTMAS MAYBE, AND
MAY DISRUPT TRAVEL AS WELL.
WE’LL HAVE ALL THAT STRAIGHT
AHEAD. OKAY STILL TO COME
CONCERNS FOR WINTER, THE WHITE
HOUSE PLANNING TO RESTART ITS
FREE COVID TEST PROGRAM AHEAD OF
A POTENTIAL WINTER SURGE IN
CASES PLUS INCHING CLOSER TO A
BAN THE U. S SENATE NOW TAKING
