The Commission may remove items from the agenda, continue items for consideration or take items out of order. Chairwoman East asked for Commission discussion. Commissioner Hubbs indicated her eagerness to attend to the Bear Hound discussion, has prior engagements but hoped to make it back for the discussion. Chair East asked for any more discussion. Hearing none, moved to public comment. Mike Reese: On the original agenda that came out and that we discussed at our CAB was item number 15, which was the Predator Management Plan. Has that been removed from the agenda? Jim Cooney: I just wanted to make sure that my name is on the agenda’s list. Rebekah Stetson: Good morning Chairwoman East. I just wanted to give comment and say thank you for agendizing our resolution and thank you to the Legislative Committee for taking the time to meet about SJR3 and for voting unanimously to support it. Sheila Sterling: I’d like to make a comment that, if you have an approximate time that you’ll be discussing the hound dog bear hunt and the coyote killing contest because it seems to be an all-day agenda. Do you know if this will be in the morning or in the afternoon? Or am I able to make a comment about this now? Chairwoman East stated she did not know an approximate time for those agenda items, suggested we only take comments on Agenda item 2 for now. DAG Burkett clarified that we are taking comment on the approval of the agenda at this time. Chairwoman East brought it back to the Commission for a motion. Commissioner Caviglia indicated we needed to go back to discussion regarding the Predator Management Plan. Commissioner McNinch stated that we are too late to put this on the agenda for this meeting and indicated that we have an April meeting that is typically for legislative purposes and may be able to squeeze it in if we needed to. Director Wasley stated that agenda item number 9 is a report from the Wildlife Damage Management Committee, I believe there was discussion of that plan though it was not agendized as such. 3 Wildlife Staff Specialist Pat Jackson stated that when reviewing the agenda for this meeting he pointed out that in years prior the Predator Plan was normally discussed at the same agenda item as the Wildlife Damage Management Committee report. Indicated that he presented that the Predator Management Plan presentation at the March 18th Wildlife Damage Management Committee meeting and the meeting did vote on the plan to accept it with no changes. Understood the results of that meeting would be provided to the Commission today. COMMISSIONER HUBBS MADE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE AGENDA, SECONDED BY CHAIRWOMAN EAST.

  • DECLARATION of BRYAN EDELMAN, Ph.D. I, Bryan Edelman, Solemnly, Sincerely and Truly Declare and Affirm As Follows: I
    27-CR-20-12646 Filed in District Court State of Minnesota 3/18/2021 5:27 PM DECLARATION OF BRYAN EDELMAN, Ph.D. I, Bryan Edelman, solemnly, sincerely and truly declare and affirm as follows: I. INTRODUCTION I am the co-founder of Trial Innovations, Inc., a national full-service jury research firm. I have worked as a trial consultant for 20 years and have conducted pretrial and post-trial research on both criminal and civil cases across the country. In addition, I have been retained as an expert in over 40 high-profile cases to assess the impact of pretrial publicity on the fairness of the trial proceedings. Counsel for the defendant in State of Minnesota v. Alex Kueng retained me to evaluate the extent and nature of the pretrial publicity covering the death of George Floyd and its potential impact on Mr. Kueng’s due process rights. As part of my analysis, I reviewed relevant newspaper coverage, television publicity, and social media content. It is my opinion that the jury pool in Hennepin County has been saturated with extensive prejudicial news coverage. The pretrial publicity incorporates powerful and emotional language surrounding the death of George Floyd, minute-by-minute accounts of how the tragic incident unfolded, shocking video footage of the encounter, and details from pretrial filings (e.g., autopsy reports). The coverage references prejudicial statements from prominent public figures. For example, the Chief of Police described the incident as “murder.” These types of statements have the capacity to undermine the burden of proof by creating a presumption of guilt within members of the jury pool.

"Things will be different/' she told me as she gave me a hug. "But not that different." I ran further than I usually do on weekdays, to the highway outside of town, and picked it up on the way back. I'm nauseous now, walking with my arms over my head at the end of the driveway, when I hear the screech of brakes and a whimper behind me. I spin and see a dog trotting away from the postal truck in the middle of the street, turning his head around to eye it as the driver inside coughs hoarsely and rubs his forehead.

A survey of family members of murder victims and men on Death Row found both groups understand the value of forgiveness to overcome the pain of loss and agony of bitterness. The survey also found that two in three respondents would consider meeting with the murderer or victims, and seven in ten said they believed they could forgive the killer without forgetting the victims.

Over the last five years, about 30 families from the 2 country of Tanterra have arrived as refugees in New Prague. The Tanterran population in New Prague is 3 growing, and they have largely been accepted into the community. 4 Casey Davidson is a resident of New Prague who is a part of the Equality For All (EFA) group, which is a 5 political activist group that favors liberal policies, including liberal immigration policies. Davidson has 6 regularly attended rallies and demonstrations since first joining the EFA two years ago. A core of about 7 35 New Prague residents are active in EFA, but many residents from nearby towns join them when there 8 is a public protest or assembly. EFA has its own page on BLAB (an online social network) with 300 9 “likes.” 10 While most people in New Prague welcome the Tanterran refugees, there are some who oppose their 11 presence. One is Alex Thompson, a young person who is a member of Our America (OA). OA is 12 conservative group that seeks to limit immigration to the United States.

Since station, not network, jobs are described here, no material on dramatic writing, dramatic production, and acting is included.
