Former Senator Pleads Guilty to Attempted Possession of Child Pornography | Capitol Compromise & Gun Bill Battle | Thursday, May 14

from 4 Things To Know from WCCO · host WCCO

Thursday, May 14 — Former Minnesota Senator Justin Eichorn pleads guilty in federal court and is taken into custody after prosecutors say he tried to solicit explicit images from someone he believed was a teenager. Then, Minnesota lawmakers strike a major deal at the Capitol that could deliver emergency funding for HCMC, roll back car tab fees, and help lawmakers finish session on time. Plus, tensions are rising over a stalled gun reform bill at the State Capitol, with some House Democrats threatening an overnight sit-in if the legislation doesn’t move forward. And a routine traffic stop in Saint Paul takes a shocking turn when police say a child pulled a handgun from a Mickey Mouse diaper bag.Join Maria Lisignoli and Johnny Kahner for this episode of 4 Things to Know.
