00:00:05.879 --> 00:00:13.960
<v Speaker 1>News twenty six degrees in Boston at four o'clock. Good afternoon,

4
00:00:13.960 --> 00:00:17.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm Ben Parker. Here's what's happening. Former President Jimmy Carter's

5
00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:21.239
<v Speaker 1>casket is now being taken on a horse drawn caisson

6
00:00:21.320 --> 00:00:24.239
<v Speaker 1>from the Navy Memorial in Washington, d C. To the

7
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:35.719
<v Speaker 1>Capitol Rotundo. Carter is the only graduate of the US

8
00:00:35.799 --> 00:00:38.840
<v Speaker 1>Naval Academy to become President of the United States. His

9
00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:40.679
<v Speaker 1>body is set to lie in state at the Capitol

10
00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:45.119
<v Speaker 1>tonight and tomorrow before Thursday's state funeral at the National Cathedral.

11
00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:49.200
<v Speaker 1>In Norfolk Superior Court, the prosecution's been trying to discredit

12
00:00:49.520 --> 00:00:52.200
<v Speaker 1>a key expert for the defense in the Karen Reid case.

13
00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:54.079
<v Speaker 1>We get more from wc's Brook McCarthy.

14
00:00:54.159 --> 00:00:57.079
<v Speaker 3>Another heated day in court ahead of Karen Reid's second

15
00:00:57.159 --> 00:00:58.039
<v Speaker 3>criminal trial.

16
00:00:58.200 --> 00:01:01.399
<v Speaker 4>With all due respect, and I'm not somebody that just

17
00:01:01.479 --> 00:01:02.399
<v Speaker 4>came in off the street.

18
00:01:02.479 --> 00:01:05.920
<v Speaker 5>I have at least thirty years as a physician.

19
00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:09.280

20
00:01:09.319 --> 00:01:13.120
<v Speaker 3>her qualifications as a dog bite expert. Doctor Russell testified

21
00:01:13.159 --> 00:01:16.560
<v Speaker 3>during Reid's first trial that Boston Police officer John O'Keeffe

22
00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:19.439
<v Speaker 3>was attacked by a dog, not hit by Reed's suv.

23
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:22.920
<v Speaker 3>Like the prosecution claims, the Commonwealth wants to prevent doctor

24
00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:24.439
<v Speaker 3>Russell from testifying.

25
00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:27.519
<v Speaker 2>Most animals don't just bite with their top teeth and drag.

26
00:01:27.879 --> 00:01:28.959
<v Speaker 2>It happens quite a bit.

27
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:30.079
<v Speaker 1>What happens with frogs?

28
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:30.760
<v Speaker 4>Right?

29
00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Anything happen with the Hogscogs bite and pull.

30
00:01:36.159 --> 00:01:39.040

00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:10.520
<v Speaker 4>were found during a routine and post flight maintenance inspection.

40
00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:14.639
<v Speaker 4>The planet arrived in Fort Lauderdale shortly after eleven PM

41
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:18.080
<v Speaker 4>from JFK Airport in New York. Two weeks ago, a

46
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:34.479
<v Speaker 6>The Biden Administration is now fully launching its labeling program

47
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:38.280
<v Speaker 6>for smart electronics and appliances to help Americans know what

48
00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:42.360
<v Speaker 6>Internet connected devices are cyber secure. The US cyber Trust

49
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:46.240

50
00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:50.319
<v Speaker 6>fitness trackers, virtual assistants, and home security cameras. It's a

51
00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:54.120
<v Speaker 6>voluntary program. Companies can soon submit products to get tested

52
00:02:54.120 --> 00:02:57.680
<v Speaker 6>for security standards. Major retailers like best Buy and Amazon

53
00:02:57.719 --> 00:03:00.520
<v Speaker 6>have agreed to support the program and help educate consumers

54
00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:03.960
<v Speaker 6>about the label. Karen travers ABC News Washington.

55
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:06.639
<v Speaker 1>Help for those in medical debt, at least on their

56
00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:09.599
<v Speaker 1>credit reports, those reports will no longer include medical debt

57
00:03:09.599 --> 00:03:12.759
<v Speaker 1>for Americans. New rule finalized by the Biden administration that

58
00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:16.080
<v Speaker 1>takes affected March. About forty nine billion dollars worth of

59
00:03:16.120 --> 00:03:19.039
<v Speaker 1>medical bills from the credit reports of about fifteen million

60
00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:22.719
<v Speaker 1>Americans will be wiped away, and a twenty twenty four

61
00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:26.400
<v Speaker 1>pole from nonprofit KFF found about one in twelve US

62
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:30.120
<v Speaker 1>adults have medical debt. To four day actual weather forecast,

63
00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:32.639
<v Speaker 1>We've got a lot of the same as we've had

64
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:35.560
<v Speaker 1>the last several days coming up. Tonight. It's clear to

65
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:38.800
<v Speaker 1>partly cloudy, it's blusterye it's got temperatures in the teens

66
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:41.240
<v Speaker 1>and real fields probably below zero in some of the

67
00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:43.960
<v Speaker 1>coldest spots overnight to night, close to zero for the

68
00:03:43.960 --> 00:03:46.159
<v Speaker 1>real feel in Boston. Tomorrow, the winds are going to

69
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:49.360
<v Speaker 1>be whipping around pretty good again. Wind gus tomorrow could

70
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:51.199
<v Speaker 1>get close to forty miles an hour, so we'll have

71
00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:54.039
<v Speaker 1>the sunshine, we'll have that wind, Temperatures in the twenties,

72
00:03:54.039 --> 00:03:56.680
<v Speaker 1>will feel like it's in the single digits and low teens.

73
00:03:56.719 --> 00:03:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Another chilly night Tomorrow night with some clouds and that

74
00:03:59.039 --> 00:04:02.039
<v Speaker 1>gusty breeze, a law of eighteen close to zero for

75
00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:04.719
<v Speaker 1>the real fields. And then Thursday, another day of the

76
00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:08.879
<v Speaker 1>chill says, we'll have the wind blowing around, temperatures near thirty,

77
00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:11.240
<v Speaker 1>will feel like we're in the single digits and low teens.

78
00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:13.680
<v Speaker 1>And then a little bit of relief on Friday, a

79
00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:15.879
<v Speaker 1>little bit it won't be as harsh. First of all,

80
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:18.759
<v Speaker 1>there'll be less wind Friday, a lot of sunshine around,

81
00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:21.759
<v Speaker 1>and we'll see temperatures get into the mid to upper thirties.

82
00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:25.000
<v Speaker 1>Right now twenty six degrees in Boston. Two years after

83
00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:28.839
<v Speaker 1>opening in Mattapan, a nonprofit hoping to provide healthy, affordable

84
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:32.399
<v Speaker 1>food is to the underserved neighborhoods is closing down the store.

85
00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:34.399
<v Speaker 1>Wbz's Nicole Davis explains why.

86
00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:37.560
<v Speaker 2>Daily Table CEO Sasha Porpora says they opened up their

87
00:04:37.600 --> 00:04:41.160
<v Speaker 2>nonprofit low cost grocery store on River Street in Mattapan

88
00:04:41.319 --> 00:04:44.600
<v Speaker 2>trying to tackle the neighborhoods overwhelming levels of food insecurity.

89
00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:47.519
<v Speaker 7>The reason we close the store is it's not having

90
00:04:47.560 --> 00:04:48.879
<v Speaker 7>the impact we hoped for.

91
00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:51.680
<v Speaker 2>First and foremost, she says, they struggle to get customers

92
00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:54.720
<v Speaker 2>in the door, partly because the location is not that accessible.

93
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:57.839
<v Speaker 2>She says they also underestimated the deep level of need.

94
00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:00.920
<v Speaker 2>While they do offer big discounts on food using snap,

95
00:05:01.120 --> 00:05:03.879
<v Speaker 2>she says expanded access to food pantries would likely serve

96
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:06.480
<v Speaker 2>that neighborhood better. As for the future, she says they

97
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:09.759
<v Speaker 2>hope to expand and they'll make sure for future locations.

98
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:12.600
<v Speaker 7>That not only is the population there that needs access

99
00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:15.120
<v Speaker 7>to low cost food, but that we are in a

100
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:19.000
<v Speaker 7>location that makes it extremely easy for them to access it.

<v Speaker 2>Nicole Davis WBZ, Boston's News Radio.

102
