00:00:01.240 --> 00:00:06.480
<v Speaker 1>This is w b Z, Boston's news radio, redefining local news.

2
00:00:11.560 --> 00:00:14.960
<v Speaker 2>Cloudy, some showers out. There were sixty four in Boston

3
00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:18.480
<v Speaker 2>eleven o'clock. Good Morning on Laurie Kirby. The US Senate

4
00:00:18.559 --> 00:00:22.359
<v Speaker 2>is now out for the saving report on security failures

5
00:00:22.760 --> 00:00:26.800
<v Speaker 2>that allowed a gunman to shoot former President Donald Trump

6
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:30.920
<v Speaker 2>at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Our top story with

7
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:32.439
<v Speaker 2>AP's Jennifer King.

8
00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:36.039
<v Speaker 3>Secret Service failures ahead of the attempted assassination of Donald

9
00:00:36.039 --> 00:00:38.719
<v Speaker 3>Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania this July were

10
00:00:38.799 --> 00:00:42.560
<v Speaker 3>foreseeable and preventable. That's according to a bipartisan report from

11
00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:46.000
<v Speaker 3>the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee released today,

12
00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:49.000
<v Speaker 3>Similar to the agency's own probe, the committee panel found

13
00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:51.840
<v Speaker 3>multiple failures on almost every level ahead of the shooting.

14
00:00:51.960 --> 00:00:54.560
<v Speaker 3>There was no clear chain of command among the agencies,

15
00:00:54.679 --> 00:00:56.600
<v Speaker 3>no plan for coverage of the building where the shooter

16
00:00:56.640 --> 00:00:59.719
<v Speaker 3>climbed up. Investigators found the Secret Service was informed about

17
00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:02.560
<v Speaker 3>an vigil on the roof two minutes before he opened fire.

18
00:01:02.759 --> 00:01:05.280
<v Speaker 3>A sniper saw agents running with guns drawn, but did

19
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:07.519
<v Speaker 3>not think to tell other officers to get Trump off

20
00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:11.040
<v Speaker 3>the stage. Officials were operating on separate radio channels, leading

21
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:14.480
<v Speaker 3>to misted communications that Chairman Gary Peters described as a

22
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:17.120
<v Speaker 3>game of telephone. A House panel is also looking into

23
00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:19.599
<v Speaker 3>another attempt against Trump at his golf course in Florida

24
00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:22.359
<v Speaker 3>earlier this month. Lawmakers say they want to find out

25
00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:26.480
<v Speaker 3>more to try and prevent it from happening again. Jennifer King, Washington.

26
00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:31.879
<v Speaker 2>Meanwhile, investigators in another battleground state are looking into a

27
00:01:31.959 --> 00:01:36.400
<v Speaker 2>frightening incident ahead of a visit by Vice President Kamala Harris.

28
00:01:36.439 --> 00:01:38.319
<v Speaker 2>ABC's Mary Bruce with that story.

29
00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:41.560
<v Speaker 1>Raath and Arizona are now investigating bullet holes found in

30
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:44.799
<v Speaker 1>a Democratic Party campaign office for Kamala Harris in Tempe.

31
00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:47.359
<v Speaker 1>That same office was shot at last week. Now, no

32
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:49.719
<v Speaker 1>one was injured, no arrests have been made, but it

33
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:52.079
<v Speaker 1>does come just days before Harris is set to visit

34
00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:54.599
<v Speaker 1>the critical state today, though she is in the must

35
00:01:54.599 --> 00:01:57.840
<v Speaker 1>win battleground of Pennsylvania, tackling the number one issue for voters,

36
00:01:58.040 --> 00:02:00.519
<v Speaker 1>the economy, in what's being billed as a major speech

37
00:02:00.719 --> 00:02:01.400
<v Speaker 1>in Pittsburgh.

38
00:02:01.959 --> 00:02:05.359
<v Speaker 2>And while Harris is in Pennsylvania, former President Trump will

39
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:08.080
<v Speaker 2>be giving a speech in North Carolina on how he

40
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:12.879
<v Speaker 2>says he'll protect American workers. The mother of Elijah Lewis

41
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:16.479
<v Speaker 2>will change her plea to guilty on the lesser murder

42
00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:21.879
<v Speaker 2>charge in court tomorrow. Danielle Dauphine was invited on first

43
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:24.199
<v Speaker 2>and second degree murder in the death of her five

44
00:02:24.280 --> 00:02:27.280
<v Speaker 2>year old son, Elijah. The child was found dead in

45
00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:32.520
<v Speaker 2>the woods of Abington, Massachusetts, in October twenty twenty one. Now,

46
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:35.520
<v Speaker 2>in a plea deal reached with the prosecution this week,

47
00:02:35.599 --> 00:02:38.800
<v Speaker 2>the mother will now plead guilty to second degree murder

48
00:02:39.240 --> 00:02:41.840
<v Speaker 2>and will serve fifty five years to life. In what's

49
00:02:41.879 --> 00:02:45.560
<v Speaker 2>called a cap plea under New Hampshire state law. This

50
00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:48.520
<v Speaker 2>is when attorneys on both sides agreed to a sentence

51
00:02:48.919 --> 00:02:52.360
<v Speaker 2>that's below the maximum under state law. And again we'll

52
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:55.639
<v Speaker 2>have more tomorrow as it happens both here in streaming

53
00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:59.759
<v Speaker 2>on the iHeartRadio app quickly Here. More headaches for Red

54
00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:04.159
<v Speaker 2>Lawe riders this weekend. The t says trains will not

55
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:08.120
<v Speaker 2>be running on the Ashmont branch on Saturday. This coincides

56
00:03:08.120 --> 00:03:11.520
<v Speaker 2>with the ongoing shutdown on the Braintree branch. That means

57
00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:15.520
<v Speaker 2>Saturday shuttle buses will replace the trains on all stops

58
00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:19.719
<v Speaker 2>south of JFKU, mass We are seeing some early showers

59
00:03:19.759 --> 00:03:22.719
<v Speaker 2>in the northern part of our eastern coast and central

60
00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:25.159
<v Speaker 2>mass as well. I say early because we knew we

61
00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:26.680
<v Speaker 2>were going to get a little bit of rain tonight.

62
00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:29.960
<v Speaker 2>But it is pouring cats and dogs in Hampshire right now,

63
00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:33.479
<v Speaker 2>and some of that is drifting over the boundary the

64
00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:36.479
<v Speaker 2>border there. So tomorrow's our stormy is day of the

65
00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:40.240
<v Speaker 2>week before we clear for beautiful Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

66
00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:42.159
<v Speaker 2>We'll break that down for you coming up in a

67
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:46.280
<v Speaker 2>little bit. It's eleven oh five, Good morning. Hundreds of

68
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:50.000
<v Speaker 2>health and human service workers around the Commonwealth are waking

69
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:53.759
<v Speaker 2>up to find out the state has given them money

70
00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:56.000
<v Speaker 2>for what you ask well to help pay off their

71
00:03:56.039 --> 00:04:00.280
<v Speaker 2>student loans. More than seven hundred workers are sharing close

72
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:04.319
<v Speaker 2>to fifteen million dollars. They were chosen from a vast

73
00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:07.039
<v Speaker 2>pool of people who applied for the money. The funding

74
00:04:07.080 --> 00:04:10.960
<v Speaker 2>this past winner, and they're each getting between three grand

75
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:16.160
<v Speaker 2>and thirty thousand bucks. You can thank the Massachusetts Repay Program,

76
00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:20.560
<v Speaker 2>first launch two years ago. Security top of mind in

77
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:24.560
<v Speaker 2>so many communities this new season, and Reverers among them.

78
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:28.319
<v Speaker 2>Revere as a community is coming together trying to take

79
00:04:28.439 --> 00:04:31.680
<v Speaker 2>charge of what's been going on the violence and the

80
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:35.439
<v Speaker 2>brawls breaking out at the high school. WBZ Jim McKay

<v Speaker 2>with the.

82
00:04:36.040 --> 00:04:39.839
<v Speaker 4>Update, parents and teachers both agree something needs to be done.

83
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:42.600
<v Speaker 4>How to go about it, well, that's being debated right now.

84
00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:45.879
<v Speaker 4>Last night, leaders with Revere Public schools meeting and talking

85
00:04:45.920 --> 00:04:49.360
<v Speaker 4>with parents as on campus fights have continued at the

86
00:04:49.360 --> 00:04:52.240
<v Speaker 4>beginning of this school year at Revere High School, and

87
00:04:52.279 --> 00:04:56.439
<v Speaker 4>while metal detectors at entrance ways are being discussed, the

88
00:04:56.519 --> 00:05:01.519
<v Speaker 4>Revere Teachers Union also thinks campus monitors patrolling hallways throughout

89
00:05:01.519 --> 00:05:05.000
<v Speaker 4>the school day could also stop violence before it starts.

90
00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:07.920
<v Speaker 4>They're expected to make a decision on safety measures soon.

91
00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:12.800
<v Speaker 4>The discussions will continue. Jim MCKAWBZ Boston's News Radio.

92
00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:17.199
<v Speaker 2>The Somerville Central Library is considering new measures to stop

93
00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:19.879
<v Speaker 2>bad behavior from teens.

94
00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:22.920
<v Speaker 5>From installing security cameras to limiting hours. Several measures have

95
00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:26.879
<v Speaker 5>already been taken to discourage disruptive behavior at the Central Library.

96
00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:29.680
<v Speaker 5>Now the city is in talks with private security vendors

97
00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:32.920
<v Speaker 5>to have guards on patrol. Parents and students, however, are

98
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:35.439
<v Speaker 5>mixed on the idea. That doesn't seem quite like the

99
00:05:35.519 --> 00:05:39.240
<v Speaker 5>right response to me. I mean, it's a public library.

100
00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:41.160
<v Speaker 5>I feel like, yeah, it is needed.

101
00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:43.560
<v Speaker 2>There are some kids, We've seen a couple of things

102
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:44.959
<v Speaker 2>happening up there in the library.

103
00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:46.879
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and it is needed at times.

104
00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:50.040
<v Speaker 2>It's kind of crazy to need security at a library,

105
00:05:50.120 --> 00:05:52.160
<v Speaker 2>but you have to do what you have to do.

106
00:05:52.279 --> 00:05:55.519
<v Speaker 5>I'm personally against because I feel like library is such

107
00:05:55.560 --> 00:06:00.959
<v Speaker 5>an open space and it should be available for and
