St Louis Morning Brief Covers Bentley and Mason's Law, a Heartbreaking Belleville Case, an Illinois Gun Ban Ruling, and Jordan Walker's Home Run Derby Bid
from The Marc Cox Morning Show
The St. Louis Morning Brief opens with genuine good news for families: Governor Kehoe has signed Bentley and Mason's Law, forcing drunk drivers who kill a parent to pay child support for the children they leave behind. Marc and Kim St. Onge call it real accountability and real justice. Then a heartbreaking Metro East story — a toddler's body found near Belleville in a suspected parental kidnapping case — raises hard questions about whether the system failed a mother who says she sounded the alarm for years. Marc doesn't hold back on the Seventh Circuit's ruling upholding Illinois' semi-auto ban, calling out an activist judge — a Trump appointee, no less — for parroting anti-gun rhetoric, and predicts the Supreme Court will strike it down. Plus, the Boys and Girls Club steps up with an affordable summer program to keep St. Louis teens off the streets after dozens of curfew violations downtown, and Cardinals slugger Jordan Walker punches his ticket to the Home Run Derby — though Netflix streaming it exclusively has Marc and Kim fuming. Nicole Murray and the markets are next on The Marc Cox Morning Show.
