4 NEWS AT SIX STARTS NOW. GOVERNOR WHITMER APPEARING IN PUBLIC BUT AVOIDING QUESTIONS
AND TAKING EXTRA PRECAUTIONS
AFTER THE TRIAL SURROUNDING AN
ALLEGED PLOT TO KIDNAP HER.
THROUGHOUT THE POLITICALLY
CHARGED TRIAL. THE GOVERNOR HAS
STAYED OUT OF THE FRAME,
INSISTING SHE’S FOCUSED ON OTHER
THINGS. THAT TRIAL ENDED FRIDAY
WITH NO CONVICTIONS. TWO OF THE
ALLEGED PLOTTERS WERE ACQUITTED
AND THE OTHER TWO WILL BE TRIED
AGAIN. SHAWN LEY JOINS US LIVE
AFTER TRYING TO GET A WORD WITH
THE GOVERNOR SEAN. IT’S CLEAR
HER SECURITY TEAM THEY HAVE
REALLY RAMPED THINGS UP. THAT’S
TRUE GUYS. GOOD EVENING TO YOU
LOOK, THE JURY MADE ITS DECISION
LATE FRIDAY AFTERNOON. THE
GOVERNOR HAS MADE NO COMMENT
ABOUT THE CASE SO FAR, EXCEPT
FOR A STATEMENT FROM HER
SPOKESPERSON. BUT IT IS CLEAR
FROM WHAT WE’RE SEEING IS THAT
HER SECURITY HAS BEEN STEPPED
UP. TAKE A LOOK. GOVERNOR
WHITMER, SPEAKING AT A ROAD
REPAIR CREW SAFETY EVENT TODAY
IN COMMERCE TOWNSHIP, THE MEDIA
ASKED NOT TO BROADCAST THE
GOVERNOR’S APPEARANCE PRIOR TO
THE EVENT. WE WERE TOLD THE
GOVERNOR WOULD NOT BE TAKING
QUESTIONS AFTERWARDS, AND SHE
DID NOT STOP TO TALK ABOUT THE
JURY’S DECISION FRIDAY IN HER
KIDNAPPING CASE, CAN WE
RESPECTFULLY ASKED FOR A
REACTION TO FRIDAY. RESPECTFULLY
TWO OF THE FOUR PEOPLE HIT WITH
FEDERAL CHARGES IN THE CASE ARE
FREE. THE JURY WAS DEADLOCKED ON
THE CHARGES FACING THE OTHER
ALLEGED RINGLEADERS, RETIRED
DETROIT POLICE CHIEF AND
SECURITY EXPERT STEVE DOLAN SAYS
THE GOVERNOR’S SECURITY TEAM
RAMPING UP HER SECURITY
FOLLOWING THE JURY’S DECISIONS
IS NOT SURPRISING AND IS A SMART
MOVE. THIS GROUP COULD BE MORE
EMBOLDENED. TAKE OTHER ACTION
AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT IS LIKE,
HEY, THEY DIDN’T FIND THEM
GUILTY SHOW. LET’S GIVE IT A
SHOT. UH NO ONE’S GONNA TRUST
THE FEDS ANYMORE. SO LET’S DO IT
SAYS TO BE TARGETED FOR A
VIOLENT KIDNAPPING WOULD SHAKE
ANYONE UP AND THE JURY’S
DECISIONS IN THE KIDNAPPING CASE
WOULD ALSO ADD TO THAT FEAR.
SHE’S STILL A MOTHER WITH TWO
KIDS. AND NOW OUR WHOLE FAMILY
HAS TO LIVE LIKE THIS EXTRA
SECURITY. IT’S JUST NOT RIGHT.
BACK HERE LIVE MICHIGAN STATE
POLICE. THEY PROVIDE SECURITY
FOR THE GOVERNOR. WE SPOKE WITH
THEM TODAY AND LOOK, THEY DON’T
COMMENT ON THE GOVERNOR’S
SECURITY, WHICH IS CERTAINLY
UNDERSTANDABLE AS YOU CAN SEE
THE GOVERNOR NOT QUITE READY TO
TALK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED ON
FRIDAY BECAUSE THE CASE REMAINS
STILL ALIVE. GUYS BACK TO YOU.
OKAY, SEAN, WE APPRECIATE IT.
WELL, BE CAREFUL OUT THERE. IF
YOU’RE RUNNING OUT TO THE KIDS,
PRACTICE OR WHATEVER. WE’VE GOT
SHOWERS TO CONTEND WITH. WE DO
STORM TRACKER 4 SHOWING LOTS OF
WET WEATHER ACROSS OUR AREA ON
THIS VERY SOMEWHAT WARM DAY,
ANDREW THAT’S RIGHT. WE HAD
TEMPERATURES CLOSE TO 70 DEGREES
EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON BEFORE
RETURN OF THIS. SOME SHOWERS
THAT HAVE RETURNED. FORTUNATELY
NO THUNDERSTORMS, BUT EVEN A BIT
OF RAIN CAN CAUSE SIGNIFICANT
PROBLEMS OUT THERE ON THE ROADS,
SO JUST MAKE SURE YOU REMAIN
CAREFUL OUT THERE BECAUSE WE
STILL HAVE SHOWERS THAT ARE
COMING DOWN THROUGHOUT MUCH OF
THE AREA. DURING THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING COMMUTE. YOU CAN SEE
THAT HERE BACK TOWARDS ROMULUS.
IF YOU’RE TRYING TO CATCH A
FLIGHT OVER AT METRO AIRPORT
OVER TOWARD BELLEVILLE,
ESPECIALLY ON RAMPS, BRIDGES AND
OVERPASSES. ONCE THEY BECOME A
LITTLE BIT SLICK, THEY BECOME
HARDER TO NAVIGATE. SO WATCH OUT
THERE. WATCH THOSE SPEEDS WITH
SHOWERS AND CONTINUE FOR AT
LEAST THE NEXT 2 TO 3 HOURS.
CURRENTLY WE’RE LOOKING AT 61
DEGREES CURRENTLY WIND DOWN THE
WEST SOUTHWEST THAT AROUND SEVEN
MPH. VISIBILITY PRETTY GOOD FOR
NOW, BUT IN THOSE SPOTS WHERE
THE RING IS COMING DOWN, IT GETS
A BIT WORSE. NOW, AFTER 9 10
O’CLOCK ABOUT 2 TO 3 HOURS FROM
NOW, SHOWERS START TO MOVE ON.
THAT’S SOME GOOD NEWS. IT DOES
BECOME COOLER TEMPERATURES FALL
THROUGH THE FIFTIES TO AROUND 50
DEGREES BY MIDNIGHT AND EVEN
LOWER THAN THAT THIRTIES
OVERNIGHT AND WE WAKE UP TO
SUNSHINE ON TUESDAY. BUT ANY
MORE RAIN AND TOMORROW
AFTERNOON’S FORECAST LIKE RIGHT

TONIGHT IT’S HELPED ME HANG TO
THE RESCUE, GETTING RESULTS AND
MONEY FOR CUSTOMERS BLINDSIDED
BY THE SUDDEN CLOSURE OF A LOCAL
SPOT. SOME WERE OWED HUNDREDS OF
DOLLARS, AND TONIGHT MANY HAVE
BEEN GETTING THE MONEY THAT’S
OWED THEM ARE CONSUMER
INVESTIGATOR HANK WINCHESTER
LIVE AND HANK. I’M SURE YOU’VE
BEEN HEARING FROM SOME MUCH
HAPPIER FORMER CUSTOMERS OF
LUXURY MED SPA. JASON YOU’RE
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. IT’S ALL ABOUT
MAKING SURE THAT THESE PEOPLE
GET THE MONEY OWED TO THEM. AS
YOU KNOW, WE CONFRONTED THE
DOCTOR JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO AND
SINCE THEN THE GOOD NEWS HERE.
NOT ONLY IS THE SORRY WE’RE
CLOSED SIGN UP, BUT ALSO THE
DOCTOR PROVIDING HIS PERSONAL
INFORMATION EMAIL ADDRESS TO
CUSTOMERS THAT MAY BE AFFECTED.
WE WENT TO WORK RIGHT AWAY,
MAKING SURE THAT THOSE WHO
CONTACTED HELP ME, HANK GOT THE
MONEY. OH, TO THEM. WHEN YOU
CAME. YOU WENT TO INTERVIEW HIM
AND I GOT A CALL LIKE NOT LONG
LATER THAT HE WAS TRYING TO
RECONCILE ME APOLOGIZE. ANGELA
PEOPLES NEVER THOUGHT SHE WOULD
SEE THIS A CHECK FOR $440.99.
THE MONEY OWED TO HER BY THE
LUXURY MED SPA IN FARMINGTON
HILLS. WHAT DID YOU THINK WHEN
YOU ACTUALLY GOT THAT CHECK IN
YOUR HEAD? THANKS, HANK. HE SAID
. YOU SHOWED UP AT HIS DOORSTEP
NEEDED THAT TOOK HIM OFF GUARD
AND HE JUST WANTS TO, YOU KNOW,
MAKE THINGS RIGHT WITH THE
PEOPLE THAT LOST THEIR MONEY,
ANGELA, ONE OF A NUMBER OF
CUSTOMERS WHO REACHED OUT TO
HELP ME HANK, FRUSTRATED AND
CONCERNED WHEN THEY MADE THEIR
WAY HERE TO THE LUXURY MED SPA
IN LATE FEBRUARY AND REALIZED IT
CLOSED WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THIS
IS NOT RIGHT. THIS CAN’T BE TRUE
. I STARTED TO DO SOME DIGGING,
AND I TRACKED DOWN THE OWNER OF
THE LUXURY MED SPA. AND HE TOLD
ME HE WOULD MAKE THIS RIGHT. I
WILL DO MY BEST. DO YOUR BEST TO
REACH OUT TO THOSE PEOPLE
BECAUSE THEY’RE HURTING AND THEY
WANT ANSWERS. TONIGHT. I’M HAPPY
TO REPORT THAT THE OWNER KEPT
HIS WORD. SO FAR, SEVERAL CHECKS
HAVE BEEN MAILED OUT. AND IF
YOU’RE STILL OWED MONEY I WANT
TO HEAR FROM YOU. WE KNOW.
UNFORTUNATELY THERE COULD BE
OTHER VICTIMS OUT THERE. THAT’S
WHY I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU, AND
THE DOCTOR SAYS HE ALSO WANTS TO
HEAR FROM THOSE WHO ARE OWED
MONEY SO YOU CAN CONTACT. HELP
ME HANK DIRECTLY REGARDING THIS
STORY, OR IF YOU HAVE ANOTHER
CONSUMER ISSUE. YOU NEED ME TO

LOCAL 4 GLAD THOSE REIMBURSEMENT
CHECKS GOING OUT. GLAD THEY’RE
ACTUALLY BEING ABLE TO CATCH
THEM TOO. I WAS WONDERING, DID
YOU EVER LEARN WHY THE SPA
CLOSER SUDDENLY, BY THE WAY? YET
JASON. THE DOCTOR WILL TELL YOU
IT’S ALL REGARDS TO STAFFING
ISSUES. HE BLAMES A LOT OF IT ON
COVID AND SAYS THAT HE WASN’T
EVEN AWARE THAT HIS OWN STAFF
HAD CLOSED UP SHOP. BUT THE GOOD
NEWS IN THIS AS YOU HEARD FROM
THE DOCTOR HIMSELF. HE’S WORKING
NOW TO MAKE THIS RIGHT, RIGHT.
WE APPRECIATE IT. THANKS.
TONIGHT THE WHITE HOUSE IS NEW
CORONAVIRUS RESPONSE COORDINATOR
IS SPEAKING TO AMERICANS
CONFUSED ABOUT WHO NEEDS A
SECOND BOOSTER AND WHO DOESN’T
THEY SAY. FOR SOME, THE
RECOMMENDATION IS CLEAR FOR
OTHERS. IT DEPENDS. IT HAS BEEN
AN EXTRAORDINARY ACHIEVEMENT,
ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PUBLIC
HEALTH INTERVENTIONS AND ONE OF
THE MOST EFFECTIVE PUBLIC HEALTH
INTERVENTIONS WE’VE HAD IN
GENERATIONS, DR ASHISH JHA SAYS
. IT’S CLEAR THE COVID VACCINES
HAVE ALREADY SAVED COUNTLESS
LIVES. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING
IS PEOPLE NEED TO GET VACCINATED
AND AT LEAST GET THAT FIRST
BOOSTER FOR ANYBODY WHO HAS NOT
GOTTEN THE FIRST BOOSTER YET. SO
EVERYBODY OVER 18. IF YOU’RE
MORE THAN FIVE MONTHS OUT OF
YOUR SECOND SHOT, YOU NEED TO
GET THAT FIRST BOOSTER. BUT THE
RECOMMENDATION ON GETTING A
SECOND BOOSTER VARIES. THE FDA
HAS AUTHORIZED IT FOR THOSE AGE
50 AND UP AT LEAST FOUR MONTHS
AFTER THE FIRST BOOSTER WHEN
THAT HAPPENED, THE FIRST THING I
DID WAS I CALLED MY ELDERLY
PARENTS AND SAID, YOU NEED TO GO
GET YOUR SECOND SHOT. SO I THINK
PEOPLE OVER 60 CLEARLY BENEFIT
THE DATA FROM ISRAEL TO ME IS
VERY STRONG. I THINK PEOPLE OVER
60 SHOULD DEFINITELY BE GETTING
IT 50 TO 59. THE DATA IS LESS
CLEAR. I THINK IT SHOULD BE
DRIVEN A BIT MORE BY RISK
FACTORS. TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR.
THAT’S IMPORTANT PEOPLE UNDER 50
. WE JUST DON’T HAVE ANY DATA
RIGHT NOW. AND SO I WANT TO BE
GUIDED BY EVIDENCE OF DATA ON
THIS AND THEREFORE, FOR PEOPLE
UNDER 50. I DON’T THINK WE HAVE
ANY EVIDENCE. I DON’T THINK
PEOPLE NEED IT RIGHT NOW. BUT
LOOK AT THE EVIDENCE CHANGES.
WE’RE GONNA WANT TO MAKE A
CHANGE TO THE RECOMMENDATION.
THE ULTIMATE GOAL, REDUCING THE
RISK OF HOSPITALIZATIONS AND
DEATHS, THE VACCINES. THEY
CLEARLY DO OFFER PROTECTION
AGAINST INFECTION, BUT THAT DOES
NOT HOLD UP FOR AN EXTENDED
PERIOD. THIS IS WHY IT’S REALLY
ESSENTIAL TO LOOK AT
HOSPITALIZATIONS AND DEATHS
BECAUSE AT THE END OF THE DAY,
THAT’S WHAT WE CARE ABOUT MOST.
AND THESE REALLY DATA SHOWS THAT
FOURTH SHOT, ESPECIALLY FOR HIGH
RISK PEOPLE. REDUCES MORTALITY
LEADS TO LOWER DEATH LEVELS. AND
DR JOHN SAYS THE VACCINES
CONTINUE TO WORK REALLY WELL
AGAINST THE OMICRON VARIANT B, A
TWO PARTICULARLY, AND THOSE WHO
ARE BOOSTED DETROIT BUS DRIVER

WITH THE CAR CRASH THAT KILLED A
13 YEAR OLD BOY. 65 YEAR OLD
DEBORAH WHITE IS ACCUSED OF

TIES TO SEVERAL CITIES IN METRO
DETROIT. THE U. S MARSHALS ARE
LOOKING FOR 31 YEAR OLD KEVIN
BAILEY. INVESTIGATORS SAY HE

VIOLENCE IF SHE TOLD ANYONE
ABOUT THE ABUSE. INVESTIGATORS
BELIEVE HE IS BEING SUPPORTED BY

PUT DRIVERS MORE AT EASE WHEN
THEY’RE PULLED OVER BY POLICE
AFTER THE FATAL SHOOTING OF
