Yesterday we learned both students involved in that bullying incident
were arrested by Bakersfield Police. The fourteen and fifteen year
old that were booked into juvenile hall on charges of battery,
false imprisonment, and conspiracy.
Speaker 14 (03:08):
Five or six of your time now and we're taking
a look at court news and Sheriff's investigators have resubmitted
reports to prosecutors for a decision on whether former Delanno
Police chief Mark de Rosia will be charged with a crime.
You may remember Derosia was arrested back in March on
suspicion of contacting a minor for sex. Sheriff's officials say Derojia,
(03:29):
who was sixty eight at the time, contacted a detective
in an online sting operation who was posing as a
fifteen year old. Officials say their conversation turned sexual and
a meeting was arranged. Derojia was arrested back in March
in the area of Olive and Newts and Drives. Back
in June, prosecutors sent the case back to the Sheriff's
(03:50):
office for more investigation. The reports were submitted August thirteenth
and are under review now by the District Attorney's office.
US is your local election headquarters. As both the Harrison
Trump campaigns are ramping up to court voters and key states.
The former president now facing new legal challenges from indictments
(04:11):
from the Special Council.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
NBC's Alice Barr has details from Washington.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
This morning.
Speaker 6 (04:18):
A new effort to hold former President Trump criminally responsible
for trying to overturn the results of the twenty twenty election,
culminating in the January sixth capital attack. In a revised indictment,
the Department of Justice charging mister Trump with the same
four counts, including conspiracy to defraud the United States and
obstruct and official proceeding, but stripping out references to certain
(04:42):
official acts to comply with last month's Supreme Court decision
that found former presidents are immune from prosecution for much
of their official conduct while in office. Former President Trump's
lamming the new superseding indictment as persecution of a political opponent.
He's long contended former presidents need absolute immunity to protect
(05:04):
their power to act.
Speaker 8 (05:05):
You're not going to do anything if you don't have
a community, because otherwise you had been prosecuted after you
leave office.
Speaker 6 (05:12):
In the new document, Special Council Jack Smith strikes some
conduct the Supreme Court said was off limits, including the
former president leaning on his Justice Department to support false
claims of a rigged election, but it retains allegations about
pressuring former Vice President Mike Pence into not certifying the
election results.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
What's added is lots and lots of language saying that
Pence acted as either a candidate or as President of
the Senate, in other words, not as an official piece
of action, and that Trump was acting also in an
unofficial way.
Speaker 6 (05:46):
It all comes as the former president's re election bid
hits a critical stretch campaigning in Wisconsin tomorrow, as his rival,
Vice President Harris and running mate Governor Tim Walls kick
off a bus tour in Georgia today, the Trump legal
team is expected to try to get the new indictment dismissed,
arguing it still has fatal flaws. Under the Supreme Court's reasoning,
(06:10):
the appeals process could drag out for months past the
November election in Washington Alice Barr and BC News.

third and fourth respectively, and then Bakersfield coming in fifth.
Researchers weren't able to pinpoint exactly why North Carolina in
California are duy hot spots. Lending Tree also shows that

(15:12):
get caught drunk on the roads.

State leaders are sounding the alarm over the use of
cell phones in the classroom and the negative impact that
they're having on students. Teachers, students, and lawmakers from both

A federal judge in Texas has blocked the Biden administration
from giving legal status to immigrant spouses of US citizens.
The case was brought by sixteen attorney generals from Republican
led states. The ruling stops the executive order by President Biden,
who announced that ruling back in June. It went into
effects just last week. It offered immigrants married to US
(16:33):
citizens to apply for work permits and other deportation protections
if they have lived in the US for at least
a decade. It also provided a streamlined path to citizenship.
In a statement, President Biden simply called the judges order wrong.

Welcome back to see here in Nevada got an early
taste of winter last weekend. This video by the Palisades
Tahoe Ski Resort shows how it looked at High Camp
after a light dusting of snow. The snow didn't stick
around long, as you can imagine, but it made the
anticipation for the ski season that much higher. Palisades Tahoe
says it expects to open for the ski season November
(19:36):
twenty seventh, That is the day before Thanksgiving.
Speaker 10 (19:41):

Speaker 2 (19:56):
And here's the thing. I haven't skied a mamma since
I was in college.
Speaker 14 (20:01):
It's just my favorite place in the world in general.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Yes, yeah, and it's fun to see them getting snow.
I couldn't believe the dusting that those higher elevations got
this weekend. I was talking to someone from up in
Fraser Park and he said he started to get firewood
orders because it's been dropping into the thirties for them,
And I was like, I'm sorry, in August people are
already thinking time to get my stash of firewood. But yeah,
(20:26):
I mean, when it starts to get those chilly morning hours,
you could need it. But unfortunately we have gone right
back up where guys supposed to be.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Yeah, this was a rare event for August, but an
exciting event.
Speaker 8 (20:38):
Nonetheless.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Well back now in your business, watch the average twice

so if you're thinking instead about buying used, consumer reports
can help you find the best, most reliable ride to
fit your needs and budget. Lexus and Toyota a top
the list of twenty six brands, with the Mazda coming
in third. All brands have consistent averages or better reliability
(21:02):

top five brands. At the bottom of the list are Tesla, Dodge,
and Chrysler.

free access to fresh produce, meat, dairy, shelf stable goods

Avocado oils having a moment in the culinary and health world,
but there's a chance at the bottle of heart healthy
cooking oil at the grocery store isn't as advertised. Scientists
at UC Davis recently tested thirty six popular brands sold
at major retailers. Twenty one of them were not pure
avocado oil. Those products contained oils from less expensive seeds
(21:57):
and vegetables. Researchers suggested a correlation between purity of avocado
oil and price, saying the cheaper brands were likely to
contain other filler oils.
Speaker 14 (22:07):
Your dog or cat can now get a ride with Lift.
The ride sharing service has started a feature allowing riders
to bring their pet with them. It's being called pet Rides,
and customers can select that option to be matched with
drivers who are okay with having their pets in their vehicles.
There are some catches, though just one pet is allowed
per ride, and they have to be either in a carrier,
(22:29):
on a blanket, or at the owner's feet. Pet Rides
adds an additional four dollars to your charge, but that
goes directly to the driver. Lift drivers are required to
accommodate surface animals.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
But can you just call your pet a ride? You
have an appointment at the groomer please?
Speaker 14 (22:45):
Yes, I need to send my pet to that. I
don't want to be there.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Yeah, Just you handle it for me. She'll call me
when she needs a ride back. Yeah.
