00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:35.280
<v Speaker 2>we started the week with summer vibes, and while it

00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:37.399

10
00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:39.920
<v Speaker 2>your Tuesdays shaping up to be another good one. You

<v Speaker 2>continue to have warm weather over the next couple of

12
00:00:42.280 --> 00:00:44.479
<v Speaker 2>days before a big cool down late in the week.

<v Speaker 2>We're even warmer tomorrow. The cool down doesn't start until Thursday,

16
00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:58.320
<v Speaker 2>and we're mostly staying dry before we head to the weekend.

17
00:00:58.679 --> 00:01:01.439
<v Speaker 2>Well at six oh one, Judge Beverly Canoni will be

18
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:05.280
<v Speaker 2>back for the retrial of Karen Reid come January. Norfolk

19
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:08.840
<v Speaker 2>Superior Court confirming the update as both sides are preparing

20
00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:11.519
<v Speaker 2>for a retrial that is said to begin on January

21
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:14.920
<v Speaker 2>twenty seventh, after the mistrial earlier this year. Now at

22
00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:17.640
<v Speaker 2>the same time, Karen Reid is also appealing a lower

23
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:20.599
<v Speaker 2>court's decision to keep two of the three most serious

24
00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:23.920
<v Speaker 2>charges against her. That case is at the Supreme Judicial Court,

25
00:01:24.200 --> 00:01:26.799
<v Speaker 2>and Reed is getting defense help from the ACLU in

26
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:29.799
<v Speaker 2>her bid for appeal. Many parents who say they're in

27
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:33.640
<v Speaker 2>favor of an age requirement for social media WBZ is

28
00:01:33.719 --> 00:01:36.400
<v Speaker 2>James Johas and Charles Down with more on a new

29
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:39.000
<v Speaker 2>survey and what parents in the Commonwealth have to say.

30
00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:41.920
<v Speaker 1>Parents in Massachusetts then kids should be at least fourteen

31
00:01:41.959 --> 00:01:44.319
<v Speaker 1>years old to youth social media. That's according to a

32
00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:47.640
<v Speaker 1>nationwide survey asking parents on a state by state basis,

33
00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:50.319
<v Speaker 1>what age is it safe for children to have access

34
00:01:50.359 --> 00:01:52.879
<v Speaker 1>to it. Larry is a parent and thinks there should

35
00:01:52.959 --> 00:01:53.799
<v Speaker 1>be some limits.

36
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:58.239
<v Speaker 3>It's hard to just make one thing universal, but as

37
00:01:58.239 --> 00:01:59.959
<v Speaker 3>a whole I think, you know a lot of the case.

38
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:01.040
<v Speaker 1>They do need to.

39
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:06.599
<v Speaker 3>Enjoy the childhoods more and not be so exposed to

40
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:09.360
<v Speaker 3>so much information so young.

41
00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Ryan doesn't have kids, but he does have a little brother.

42
00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:14.639
<v Speaker 4>My little brother's ten, I don't want him seeing a

43
00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:16.639
<v Speaker 4>lot of this stuff that I see on social media.

44
00:02:17.159 --> 00:02:20.360

<v Speaker 5>Chris mom a WBZ Boston's news radio.

72
00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:49.960
<v Speaker 2>We were feeling like a summer afternoon on Monday to

73
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:52.080
<v Speaker 2>begin the week. While it's not going to be as

74
00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:55.439
<v Speaker 2>warm as what we saw on Mondays, certainly another beautiful

75
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:59.120
<v Speaker 2>afternoon ahead of us here as we are looking at sunshine,

76
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:03.400
<v Speaker 2>a few clouds, high of right around seventy degrees if

77
00:04:03.479 --> 00:04:05.240
<v Speaker 2>you're on north and west of town, you could be

78
00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:07.719
<v Speaker 2>getting back into the mid seventies clear and then down

79
00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:10.240
<v Speaker 2>to be low fifty five for tonight. Much more of

80
00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:12.520
<v Speaker 2>the same tomorrow. In fact, we're even a bit warmer

81
00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:15.400
<v Speaker 2>and Greater Boston with a high of seventy five degrees

82
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:17.839
<v Speaker 2>and then on Wednesday night into Thursday might see a

83
00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:20.600
<v Speaker 2>few drops of rain, a few showers, and then Thursdays

84
00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:23.120
<v Speaker 2>should be okay. We'll start to see the cool off

85
00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:26.160
<v Speaker 2>begin down into the sixties, and then by Friday, plenty

86
00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:28.800
<v Speaker 2>of sunshine, but we'll be down into the upper fifties.

87
00:04:28.879 --> 00:04:31.079
<v Speaker 2>Right around sixty is all we're getting out of Friday.

88
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:33.439
<v Speaker 2>But all in all, we are looking at some great

89
00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:37.160
<v Speaker 2>weather right now for late October. It's six oh six.

90
00:04:37.399 --> 00:04:40.480
<v Speaker 2>And speaking of all this weather, how about another potential

91
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:41.720
<v Speaker 2>day to head to the beach.

92
00:04:41.959 --> 00:04:44.959
<v Speaker 3>This time of year, the seagulls usually have America's oldest

93
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:47.360
<v Speaker 3>public beach all to themselves, but not when the weather

94
00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:49.480
<v Speaker 3>is like this. What do you think of this weather?

95
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:51.959
<v Speaker 6>I think it's fantastic. I hope we get a few

96
00:04:52.040 --> 00:04:53.879
<v Speaker 6>while we get a few more days. It is because

97
00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:56.040
<v Speaker 6>I want to keep my ten I'm going to Saint

98
00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:57.079
<v Speaker 6>Lucia in November.

<v Speaker 3>Jim drove down from Harol.

100
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:01.319
<v Speaker 6>I know after a few more day we could get

101
00:05:01.399 --> 00:05:04.199
<v Speaker 6>tech cold weather. So I used to deliver a mail

102
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:05.879
<v Speaker 6>and I love this type of weather.

103

<v Speaker 2>Six SO seven The Boston City Council trying to fix

106
00:05:12.279 --> 00:05:15.800
<v Speaker 2>a major strain on the budget the expected record breaking

107
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:17.720
<v Speaker 2>spending on police overtime.

108
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:20.399
<v Speaker 3>With police overtime cost in the city more than one

109
00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:24.319
<v Speaker 3>hundred million dollars a year, the Boston City Council is

110
00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:27.160
<v Speaker 3>looking for ways to rate in the spending on ot

111

<v Speaker 3>City Council President Ruci luis in.

112
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:33.680
<v Speaker 4>Well, you know, we've seen the cost of overtime balloon

113
00:05:34.319 --> 00:05:36.360
<v Speaker 4>year after year, and so I think it's important for

114
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:38.399
<v Speaker 4>us to continue to have these conversations because it's also

115
00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:40.800
<v Speaker 4>something with the public demands. We've also seen time and

116
00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:44.279
<v Speaker 4>time again that overtime is so often a subject to

117
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:47.879
<v Speaker 4>fraud into abuse, and so we just want to tamper

118
00:05:47.959 --> 00:05:49.399
<v Speaker 4>down on all of that to make sure that we

119
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:52.639
<v Speaker 4>are being fiscally responsible and protecting the public.

120
00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:57.160
<v Speaker 3>Police overtime growing steadily and substantially in recent years as

121
00:05:57.199 --> 00:06:01.079
<v Speaker 3>the department faces the challenge of recruiting new officers to

122
