Speaker 3: on our island on this day.
Speaker 4: Twelve years ago.
Speaker 5: Three lives were lost and hundreds more were injured in
Speaker 5: the Boston Marathon bombings. It's hard to find a Bostonian
Speaker 5: without a connection to this tragic day.
Speaker 4: I was at the marathon now morning.
Speaker 2: By the finish line.
Speaker 4: People were running. We ran, and that was pretty scary.
Speaker 4: And then when you get up home and then you
Speaker 4: just hug your kids a little tighter.
Speaker 3: My buddy's Cambridge detective and he was on the squad
Speaker 3: at the time, and I'm being worried about him, and
Speaker 3: it's amazing that he was a part of it.
Speaker 5: In honor of the victims and to encourage acts of kindness,
Speaker 5: the city is celebrating one Boston Day today. Volunteering opportunities
Speaker 5: are also available, with a Franklin Park cleanup step for

Speaker 2: At eleven oh one. Today was supposed to be the
Speaker 2: first day of opening statements in the Karen Reid murder trial,
Speaker 2: but instead it's become another day of jury selection. Both
Speaker 2: sides want to have eighteen people on the jury just
Speaker 2: to provide a buffer in case some have to drop
Speaker 2: out or something goes awry. They were not able to
Speaker 2: get there during proceedings yesterday, so as of now, sixteen
Speaker 2: people are seated. Read is facing several charges, including second
Speaker 2: degree murder in the death of her boyfriend John O'Keefe.
Speaker 2: Her team claims she's being framed as part of a
Speaker 2: cover up. We could also learn more today about the
Speaker 2: status of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. He is the Maryland man
Speaker 2: wrongfully deported to his home country of El Salvador and
Speaker 2: placed inside of prison. A Brego Garcias deportation was the
Speaker 2: subject of the Oval Office meeting yesterday between President Trump
Speaker 2: and Salvador and President naib Bukell.
Speaker 6: A stunning comment from President Trump caught on a live
Speaker 6: streaming camera before reporters were in the Oval Office, telling
Speaker 6: the President of El Salvador he'd like to send American
Speaker 6: citizens convicted of crimes to prisons in El Salvador.
Speaker 4: He said, home grooms, then next the home runs. Billy,
Speaker 4: you get a about five more places.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's all right, it's not big enough.
Speaker 6: Minutes later, with reporters in the room, Trump said he
Speaker 6: wants Attorney General Pam Bondi to see if the law
Speaker 6: allows this.
Speaker 2: That is ABC's Terry Moran of the Supreme Court has
Speaker 2: ordered the Trump administration to facilitate a Brego Garcia's return.
Speaker 2: During the meeting, though President Trump and President Bucell made
Speaker 2: it clear they will not be sending him back. New
Speaker 2: moves on Beacon Hill to codify protections for patients during exams.
Speaker 2: The Globe reports this new legislation comes in response to
Speaker 2: charges against Derek Todd. He's a former doctor at Brigham
Speaker 2: and Women's accused of sexually assaulting several of his patients.
Speaker 2: Marble Head Rep. Jennifer Armini spearheading these new legislative proposals,
Speaker 2: which include a bill that, if passed, would mandate trained
Speaker 2: chaperones be present for genital, breast, and rectal exams unless
Speaker 2: a patient declines or it's an emergency. As of now,
Speaker 2: patients usually have to ask for a chaperone, although mass
Speaker 2: General Brigham says it has put a chaperone policy in
Speaker 2: place for quote sensitive exams or procedures we've cleared out
Speaker 2: for the most part. For now, I am seeing a
Speaker 2: couple straight showers if you're on the Capan Islands, and
Speaker 2: also a couple more are popping up right now in
Speaker 2: central Massachusetts, think along the Mass Pike in places like
Speaker 2: Sturbridge and Charlton, right by the rest area. But for
Speaker 2: the rest of the afternoon, we'll start to see more
Speaker 2: of this heavy, steady rain coming in, maybe even a
Speaker 2: couple of thunderstorms as well, becoming breeze with the high
Speaker 2: in the mid sixties. For tonight, patchy clouds, very windy
Speaker 2: out there. We have a low near forty Wednesday. Windy
Speaker 2: clouds will limit the sun so you'll see a little
Speaker 2: bit filtering through, but it's not going to be a
Speaker 2: perfectly sunny day. Unfortunately, a bit cooler as well. We
Speaker 2: have a high just about fifty tomorrow, but gradually through
Speaker 2: the rest of the week we will start to see
Speaker 2: and feel it warming up. Thursday, lots of sun, a
Speaker 2: great day, a high in the upper fifties, mix of
Speaker 2: sun and clouds. On Friday with a high in the
Speaker 2: low to mid sixties. Our temp's right now fifty seven
Speaker 2: in Auburn, we're seeing fifty five in Waltham fifty four
Speaker 2: and peb fifty four as well in a Cushnet and
Speaker 2: in Boston right now at eleven oh six, it is
Speaker 2: it said, partly cloudy out there, and we're up to
Speaker 2: fifty seven.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 2: Spring is a season of renewal, with beautiful trees and
Speaker 2: flowers coming into bloom, but unfortunately that also means it's
Speaker 2: time for the potholes to be renewed.
Speaker 1: Spring is known for the sounds of birds chirping and
Speaker 1: around Boston.
Speaker 4: It's also the sounds of this.
Speaker 1: Road crews filling potholes as drivers do their best to
Speaker 1: dodge them.
Speaker 4: But sometimes it becomes a fool's errand it is. I mean,
Speaker 4: you're talking thousands of.
Speaker 1: Dollars want reflecting on some of his past pothole pain
Speaker 1: and man, does.
Speaker 4: It cut deep. Insurance doesn't even cover a lot of it.
Speaker 1: Mastot is stepping up efforts to patch up the worst
Speaker 1: of them, but let's face it, pothole problems just added
Speaker 1: to the list of driving headaches all around Greater Boston
Speaker 1: off Southern Artery and Quincy.

Speaker 2: you haven't filed. You might want to get a move
Speaker 2: on here, because we've only got a few hours left.
Speaker 7: Around the country, taxpayers will spend the day going through
Speaker 7: old receipts to submit with their itemized tax returns. But
Speaker 7: remember most people are finding that because the standard deduction
Speaker 7: is so high, they don't need to file an itemized return.
