Good morning, this is for Coward with the Daily Beast. It's Wednesday May 12th and these are the top stories that she's seen as watching right now. A 13-year-old florida cheerleader was stabbed a horrific number of times according to the sheriff investigating her death. The medical examiner revealed Tuesday that the teen died from knife wounds.
A 14-year-old boy who attended the same school as the victim has been charged with second-degree murder. The boy was seen on video with the girl at a recreation area shortly before her death. Caitlyn Jenner is just an all-out political mess. During her CNN interview earlier this week, she said that she did not vote in the 2020 presidential election because she did not see the point of voting for a Republican and such a liberal state as California.
Instead, she said she went golfing. However, on Tuesday night, political reporter that Jenner did actually cast a ballot during last November's election and the media company has receipts to prove it. Several years after first declaring war on windmills, former president Donald Trump decided to revisit his disdain for them on Tuesday. He made a bitter statement mocking the Biden administration's approval of the nation's first major offshore wind farm.
In such charming words, Trump said, quote, congratulations to Martha's Vineyard in Massachusetts, where the privilege they will have in looking at massive windmills that are being built in China, of course, as part of an extraordinarily large wind farm. Then Trump went on to grind that wind power quote, heels birds, affects the sea, ruins the landscape, and creates disasters for navigation. Thankfully, he left out his false 2019 claim that windmills caused cancer. Nonetheless, the offshore project near Martha's Vineyard will create enough electricity for about 400,000 homes.
Oh, and the project is a joint venture between a company in Oregon and another in Denmark, so it has nothing to do with China. A woman who was booted off an Nebraska school board after refusing to wear a mask showed up to a meeting this week, maskless, naturally. The woman was already facing misdemeanor charges for allegedly disrupting an April 12 meeting, but on Monday, she refused repeated requests to mask up, and police were called to address the trespassing issue. However, the woman left before the officer arrived.
It's like a repeat of the toilet paper fiasco of 2020, worries over fuel shortage after the colonial pipeline was hacked and shut down late last week, have led to long lines at gas stations across the Southeastern United States. Now we can add at least one fight at the pump. On Tuesday afternoon, a North Carolina woman in a Honda Accord reportedly attempted to cut the line of cars at a marathon gas station. After she hit a Honda CRV part to the pump, she apparently got out and appeared to spit at the driver.
That driver then hopped out of his car and proceeded to spit right back at her, and the two descended into a scrappy fight that resulted in the man's shirt being torn. Colonial pipeline says it is aiming to be back at full capacity by Friday, with gasoline supplies then returning to normal by early next week. I'm not sure how most people pay for their plastic surgery, but I'm pretty sure they don't do this. An Alabama woman pleaded guilty Monday to robbing a bank to pay for her cosmetic surgery procedures.
After robbing the bank, the woman later traveled to Mexico and got the plastic surgery, and she was arrested near the Houston airport, re-entering the US. Witnesses identified her by her swollen face. On Tuesday, the woman received two sentences of 15 years each to be served concurrently for the robbery. She also previously served time for robbing in Alabama Bank in 2009.
