BREAK FIRST AND FOUR MAJOR STEP FORWARD IN THE FIGHT TO PUT ABORTION RIGHTS TO A VOTE HERE
IN MICHIGAN. PLUS, THIS MAN JUST
WENT BEFORE A JUDGE TO FACE
CHARGES IN THE SHOOTING DEATH OF
A FIVE YEAR OLD BOY. HIS
RELATIONSHIP TO THAT CHILD WHO
GOT HIS HAND ON AN UNSECURED GUN
AND SHOT HIMSELF, KIM QUIET
RIGHT NOW HERE IN METRO DETROIT,
BUT WE DO HAVE A SHOWER OR TWO
BACK OUT TO THE NORTH AND WEST
OF US WILL TALK ABOUT YOUR
FORECAST COMING UP IN JUST A FEW
MINUTES. I’LL INTRODUCE YOU TO A
16 YEAR OLD MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER
WISE BEYOND HER YEARS. WORDS ARE
VERY POWERFUL. OVER YOUR LIFE.
WORDS ARE ACTUALLY MORE POWERFUL
TO ME THAN EVEN GETTING LIKE,
PHYSICALLY HURT AND WHAT SHE
WANTS YOU TO KNOW ABOUT
BULLYING. BEFORE THE NEXT SCHOOL
YEAR STARTS. LOCAL 4 NEWS STARTS
NOW, WITH THE BREAKING NEWS
ALERT. BREAKING NEWS IS ON THE
BATTLE OVER ABORTION RIGHTS HERE
IN MICHIGAN, THE STATE BUREAU OF
ELECTION SAYS THE MICHIGAN
REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM FOR ALL
PROPOSAL HAS MORE THAN ENOUGH
VALID SIGNATURES AND SHOULD BE
CERTIFIED FOR THE NOVEMBER
BALLOT. THE FINAL DECISION IS UP
TO THE BIPARTISAN STATE BOARD OF
CANVASSERS, WHICH MEETS NEXT
WEEK NOW GROUPS OPPOSING THE
BALLOT PROPOSAL HAVE ARGUED A
FORMATTING PROBLEM, WHICH HAS
SOME SPACES BETWEEN SOME WORDS
MISSING. SHOULD ACTUALLY
DISQUALIFY IT FROM THE BALLOT.
THE PETITION WOULD PUT THE RIGHT
TO AN ABORTION IN THE MICHIGAN
CONSTITUTION. BIG WIN TODAY FOR
SOME LONG TERM VICTIMS OF CAR
CRASHES HERE IN MICHIGAN, THE
STATE COURT OF APPEALS HAS RULED
MAJOR CHANGES IN THE CAR
INSURANCE LAW DO NOT APPLY TO
THEM. KIMBERLY GILL IN THE
NEWSROOM TO BREAK IT ALL DOWN
FOR US, KIM THAT COULD IMPACT
THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO NEED
CONSTANT MEDICAL CARE AFTER A
CAR CRASH BUT HAD THEIR BENEFITS
SLASHED ITS CENTERED AROUND A
2019 LAW THAT PASSED THE
LEGISLATURE AND WAS SIGNED BY
GOVERNOR WHITMER. THE NO FAULT
CHANGES REDUCED PREMIUMS FOR
SOME DRIVERS, BUT SOME CRASH
VICTIMS UNABLE TO AFFORD THEIR
CARE. FOR DECADES, PEOPLE
INJURED IN CRASHES WERE ENTITLED
TO PAYMENT FOR ALL REASONABLE
CHARGES RELATED TO THEIR CARE
AND REHABILITATION. BUT THE NEW
LAW SETS A FEE SCHEDULE AND A
CAP ON REIMBURSEMENTS NOT
COVERED BY MEDICARE. SO TODAY,
AN APPEALS COURT SAID THOSE
INSURANCE PAYMENT LIMITS SHOULD
NOT APPLY TO PEOPLE HURTING CAR
CRASHES BEFORE THE LAW TOOK
EFFECT IN JUNE OF 2019 1 OF THEM
WILL RECOGNIZABLE FACES IN THIS
FIGHT HAS BEEN FORMER REDWING
STAR VLADIMIR CONSTANTINE OFF HE
SUFFERED SEVERE BRAIN DAMAGE
WHEN A DRUNK LIMO DRIVER CRASHED
HIS CAR INTO AND 1997 WHILE THEY
CELEBRATED THE TEAM’S STANLEY
CUP WIN HIS HOME CARE SERVICE
SAID IT LOST $200,000 FOR HIS
CARE. BECAUSE OF THIS NEW LAW.
WE SPEAK UP, SO THIS IS NOT A
DONE DEAL YET. INSURANCE
COMPANIES COULD STILL ASK THE
STATE SUPREME COURT TO TAKE THE
CASE COMING UP ON THE NEWS AT
SIX. WE’RE TALKING TO PEOPLE
DIRECTLY AFFECTED BY THIS RULING
, AND WE’LL HAVE MORE THAN UNTIL
THEN WE’LL SEND IT BACK TO YOU,
KAREN. ALRIGHT WE DO APPRECIATE
IT. THANK YOU. KIM AND UNCLE IS
CHARGED IN CONNECTION TO THE
DEATH OF A FIVE YEAR OLD BOY AND
DETROIT’S WEST SIDE. PRIDGET
WENT BEFORE A JUDGE ON GUN
CHARGES JUST A SHORT TIME AGO ON
MONDAY, PREACHES FIVE YEAR OLD
NEPHEW. CARLIN MCDANIEL SHOT
HIMSELF IN THE FACE WITH AN
UNSECURED GUN IN A HOME ON
OAKFIELD THAT’S NEAR EIGHT MILE
IN THE SOUTHFIELD FREEWAY. THE
BOY WAS TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL,
BUT DIED. IT WAS IN THE HOME
WHEN IT HAPPENED AND HAS CUSTODY
OF THE BOY. TURNING NOW TO OUR
FOREWARN WEATHER CHANCE OF RAIN
FOR SOME OF US TONIGHT, SO LET’S
GET OVER TO KIM WITH WHAT WE
SHOULD EXPECT. AND WHAT’S THE
TIMING? WELL, YOU CAN EXPECT
MOST AREAS TO BE DRY TONIGHT.
WE’VE GOT A FEW SHOWERS OUT TO
OUR NORTH AND WEST THAT I’LL
SHOW YOU IN JUST A MOMENT. BUT
THESE ARE VERY WIDELY SCATTERED
SHOWERS WERE NOT EXPECTING HEAVY
RAIN IN MANY LOCATIONS TONIGHT,
SO IF YOU HAVE OUTDOOR PLANS
JUST KIND OF KEEP AN EYE ON THE
WEATHER, BUT OTHERWISE YOU
SHOULD BE FINE 81 RIGHT NOW AT
METRO AIRPORT, 80 IN PONTIAC 80.
ALSO IN MOUNT CLEMENS, 83. IT’S
CITY AIRPORT. AGAIN OFF TO OUR
NORTH AND WEST. WE’RE WATCHING
JUST A FEW SHOWERS. COUPLE
EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS. NOTHING
SEVERE. MOST OF THIS TRACKING
NORTH OF I 69. SO IF YOU LIVE IN
THE SOUTHERN PART OF OUR VIEWING
AREA, YOU HAVE A LESSER CHANCE
OF SEEING THESE SHOWERS, BUT
EVERYONE COULD SEE AT LEAST A
RANDOM SHOWER HERE OR THERE, BUT
FOR THE MOST PART, WE’LL CALL IT
CLEARING SKIES WITH TEMPERATURES
GOING DOWN INTO THE LOW
SEVENTIES BY MIDNIGHT TONIGHT.
YOUR FORECAST IS STRAIGHT AHEAD.
ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. KIM THE
ACCUSED OXFORD HIGH SCHOOL
SHOOTER WAS BACK IN COURT TODAY
FOR A MONTHLY HEARING. A JUDGE
DECIDED ETHAN CRUMBLEY. WILL
STAY IN THE OAKLAND COUNTY JAIL
EVERY MONTH CRUMBLY APPEARS IN
COURT AND A JUDGE DECIDES IF HE
SHOULD BE MOVED TO A JUVENILE
DETENTION CENTER. CRUMBLY IS SET
TO GO TO TRIAL IN JANUARY. AND
IT WAS THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL
FOR OXFORD HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
, AND THEY ARE RE ENTERING THE
BUILDING WITH NEW SAFETY
PROTOCOLS IN PLACE. STUDENTS
MUST WEAR A CLEAR BACKPACK TO
GET INTO THE SCHOOL. THERE IS
ALSO A SCANNER THAT CAN DETECT
WEAPONS AND A PRIVATE SECURITY
FIRM HAS BEEN HIRED TO PATROL
THE BUILDING. PROGRESS TODAY AT
THE SITE OF THAT WATER MAIN
BREAK THAT SPARKED A BOIL WATER
ADVISORY. THE FIRST SEGMENT OF A
REPLACEMENT PIPE ARRIVED TODAY
AFTER A SMALL DELAY. THE REST OF
THE PIPE IS EXPECTED TO BE
DELIVERED OVER THE WEEKEND. THE
GREAT LAKES WATER AUTHORITY
ORIGINALLY HOPED TO HAVE THINGS
FIXED BY EARLY NEXT MONTH, BUT
IT IS REVIEWING THAT TIMELINE.
NOW THE BOIL WATER ADVISORY HAS
BEEN LIFTED. WELL THE EPA, STATE
AND LOCAL HEALTH OFFICIALS ARE
SPENDING THE DAY WORKING AT A
DIESEL SPILL DOWN RIVER. ABOUT
FIVE GALLONS OF DIESEL LEAKED
FROM A STORAGE TANK AT THE
FORMER RIVERSIDE HOSPITAL IN
TRENTON. IT WENT THROUGH THE
PRIVATE STORM SEWER THAN INTO
THE DETROIT RIVER CITY SAYS A
QUICK RESPONSE TO THE PROBLEM
HAS LIMITED THE IMPACT AND WILL
HELP SPEED UP THE CLEANUP.
SOMEONE SPOTTED THE SHEEN AND
CALLED THE CITY OF TRENTON. I
LIVE DOWN RIVER. I LIVE JUST NOT
10 MINUTES FROM HERE. SO, YOU
KNOW, I THINK THAT THE RESIDENTS
DOWN RIVER OF CARE VERY MUCH
ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT. AND YOU
KNOW, I’M JUST REALLY GLAD THAT
THEY WERE ALERT IN NOTIFIED
SOMEBODY. THE OWNERS OF THE
FORMER HOSPITAL HAVE PAID FOR
THE COST OF THE CLEANUP SO FAR.
NOW IN THE SEARCH OF FORMER
PRESIDENT TRUMP’S MAR A LAGO
ESTATE, THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT
MUST MAKE A PUBLIC REDACTED
VERSION OF THE WARRANT AFFIDAVIT
. BY NOON TOMORROW, THE DOJ
SUBMITTED ITS PROPOSED
REDACTIONS TODAY, THE DOCUMENT
LAYS OUT THE JUSTIFICATION FOR
THE RAID, AND IT’S WHAT LED A
JUDGE TO AGREE TO THE SEARCH.
TRUMP WAS CALLING FOR ITS PUBLIC
RELEASE, BUT THE JUSTICE
DEPARTMENT SAID IT COULD
JEOPARDIZE THE INVESTIGATION. WE
DON’T KNOW HOW MUCH OF THE
DOCUMENT WAS REDACTED. WE WILL
FIND OUT TOMORROW. THERE IS A
MAJOR CONCERN THIS AFTERNOON
ABOUT EUROPE’S LARGEST NUCLEAR
POWER PLANT. IT HAS COME UNDER
ATTACK IN UKRAINE, AND IT HAS
JUST BEEN CUT OFF FROM THE
ELECTRICITY GRID. NOW THE
DISRUPTION OF THE ELECTRICITY
SUPPLY COULD KNOCK OUT COOLING
SYSTEMS THAT ARE ESSENTIAL FOR
THE SAFE OPERATION OF THE
REACTORS. THREE TRANSMISSION
LINES WERE DAMAGED BECAUSE OF
FIGHTING WITH RUSSIAN FORCES
THAT ARE OCCUPYING THE PLANT. IT
COMES AFTER A RUSSIAN ROCKET
ATTACK AT A TRAIN STATION KILLED
25 PEOPLE, INCLUDING TWO
CHILDREN. VIDEO SHOWS THE RECENT
U. S AIRSTRIKE IN SYRIA. THE
PENTAGON SAYS THE STRIKES WERE A
MESSAGE TO IRAN AND MILITIAS
THAT ARE TARGETED AMERICAN
TROOPS. AS MANY AS THREE PEOPLE
WERE KILLED. THE U. S IS THEY
WERE CARRYING OUT ATTACKS ON US
FORCES, THREE CARS AND EQUIPMENT
USED TO LAUNCH ROCKETS WERE
DESTROYED. IT’S A REALLY
UNFORTUNATE REALITY. AS WE
STARTED NEW SCHOOL YEAR, SOME
CHILDREN WILL HAVE TO FACE
BULLIES IN THE CLASSROOM. BUT
WHEN LOCAL TEAM IS TURNING HER
OWN PAINFUL EXPERIENCES OF BEING
BULLIED INTO HOPE AND TRIUMPH,
AND SHE’S DOING IT THROUGH
MOTIVATIONAL SPEECHES AND JOINS
US NOW LIVE IN FARMINGTON HILLS
. THIS IS A VERY SPECIAL TEAM,
PAULA OH, WAIT TILL YOU HEAR
HER. THEN YOU’LL SEE HOW SPECIAL
SHE IS. NOW. SHE IS FROM
REDFORD. SHE WANTED TO MEET US
HERE AT HERITAGE PARK IN
FARMINGTON HILLS, AND I CAN SEE
WHY IT IS SO PEACEFUL AND SO
SERENE. SHE JUST TURNED 16 YEARS
OLD. AND EVEN THOUGH THIS THIS
BULLYING INCIDENT OR THESE
INCIDENTS HAPPENED SOME TIME
AGO, YOU CAN SEE THAT THEY’RE
STILL VERY FRESH AND PAINFUL AS
SHE SHARES THE WORLD SHE’S
CREATING. TO HELP OTHERS. ALL
THE OUTCAST. THROWAWAYS REJECTED
THE BULLIED, UNLOVABLE DEPRESSED
, SUICIDAL IT MAY BE HARD TO
BELIEVE, BUT THAT VOICE YOU HEAR
IS THE VOICE OF SHANNON MONET, A
16 YEAR OLD REDFORD TEEN WHO’S
SPEAKING TO OTHERS ABOUT
BULLYING. EVEN THE ONES WHO
SUFFER IN SECRET. THIS IS A
PIECE OF MY STORY CAST IS THE
NAME OF JUST ONE OF THE VIDEOS.
SHE’S WRITTEN AND PRODUCED. THAT
WOMAN IN THE BLUE JEAN DRESS IN
THE YELLOW HAT. SHE’S CONFIDENT
, SELF ASSURED AND TALENTED, BUT
SHE DIDN’T ALWAYS FEEL THAT WAY.
BECAUSE AT NINE YEARS OLD, SHE
WAS BULLIED RELENTLESSLY. A LOT
OF STUDENTS. USED TO CALL ME
NAMES BECAUSE I WAS THE ONLY
BLACK KID IN MY CLASSROOM, YOU
KNOW? LIKE YOU ARE A YOU KNOW, N
WORD AND DIFFERENT THINGS LIKE
THAT. YOU LOOK LIKE THAT. AND
THEN, UM LIKE, AND I THEY TALKED
CALLED ME THAT MULTIPLE TIMES.
AND UM ONE TIME THE TEACHER EVEN
HEARD IT AND SHE DIDN’T REALLY
DO MUCH ABOUT IT SO MUCH, SO SHE
DIDN’T EVEN TELL HER MOTHER. SHE
HID INSIDE HERSELF. WE JUST
FOUND OUT WHENEVER SHE BROUGHT
THE OUTKAST OUT. THE OUTKAST
VIDEO THROUGH FAITH AND A
PERSONAL JOURNEY OF SELF HEALING
. SHE HAS TURNED HER PAIN INTO
TRIUMPH AND WANTS OTHER CHILDREN
AND THEIR PARENTS TO UNDERSTAND
THE DAMAGE BULLYING CAN DO. IT
CHANGES HOW THEY VIEW
THEMSELVES. EVEN LIKE LOOKING IN
THE MIRROR LIKE OH, I AM THIS
BECAUSE THIS PERSON SAID I’M
UGLY, SO I AM UGLY OR THIS
PERSON SAID I’M NOT BEAUTIFUL,
SO I’M NOT BEAUTIFUL, HOW TO
SPOT IT. IT CAN BE CHANGES IN
BEHAVIOR YOU MAY NOTICE LIKE
THERE IN THE BED LONGER THAN
USUAL. IT CAN BE DIFFERENT SIGNS
LIKE THAT. HOW TO STOP IT? AND
HOW TO HEAL FROM IT. I REALLY
SUGGEST TELLING YOUR PARENTS ARE
FINDING A GROUP THAT CAN REALLY
HELP YOU OUT. FINDING SOMEONE
YOU CAN REALLY CONFIDE IN WHO
YOU REALLY CAN TRUST. AND THEN I
ALSO DID I AM AFFIRMATIONS WHICH
HELPED BUILD ME UP LIKE I AM
STRONG. I AM CONFIDENT AND I
SPOKE AGAINST WHAT OTHER PEOPLE
LABELED ME AS I AM POWERFUL. I
AM BEAUTIFUL. NOW A BLOSSOMING
MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER MAKING
ROUNDS ON VARIOUS PODCASTS,
MAKING HER OWN VIDEOS AND
BUILDING HER BRAND ON THE
SPEAKER’S CIRCUIT. SHE IS
DETERMINED TO HELP OTHERS NOT BE
WHO SHE WAS. BUT WHO SHE IS NOW.
OF IT. SO IT’S SO INTERESTING
BECAUSE SHE BUYS STOCK VIDEOS
AND PHOTOGRAPHS AND MUSIC TO
MAKE THOSE VIDEOS. KAREN LET’S
FACE IT. SHE’S ALSO GOT A FUTURE
IN MOVIEMAKING WITH OUT QUESTION
SHE AND HER MOTHER WANTS PARENTS
AND STUDENTS TO UNDERSTAND THE
SIGNS OF BEING BULLIED, BUT ALSO
EQUALLY IMPORTANT. THE SIGNS
THAT PERHAPS YOUR CHILD IS THE
BULLY. BY THE WAY, WE’RE GOING
TO PUT A LINK ON HER OUTCAST
VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE SO YOU CAN
EASILY FIND THEM AND FOLLOW HER
. I DON’T BELIEVE SHE SAID. SHE
SAID SHE’S 16. I DON’T BELIEVE
IT. SHE IS. IT’S HARD TO
BELIEVE, THOUGH, ISN’T IT? KAREN
MY GOSH, SHE HAS A WISE SOUL.
YOU COULD TELL WHEN SHANNON WAS
TALKING, PAULA, YOU COULD ALMOST
HEAR A VOICE CRACKING EVEN AS
SHE REMEMBERED THOSE WORDS THAT
SHE WAS BULLIED. I MEAN, IT
DOESN’T IT NEVER LEAVES. YOU
PAINFUL WENT THROUGH IT IN FIFTH
GRADE, AND I STILL HAVE YOU
KNOW, YOU’RE JUST BRINGS YOU
RIGHT BACK THERE. I LOVE THOSE.
I AM STATEMENTS THAT SHE TALKS
ABOUT THOSE MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
YEAH I WAS BULLIED AS WELL. I
GET IT. IT LASTS. DOES IT REALLY
