"Colorado Police and FBI Investigate Co-Conspirator in Mariemont HS Shooting Plot"

The FBI is collaborating with Colorado police to investigate the co-conspirator in the school shooting plot at Mariemont High School, where a 14-year-old was charged with conspiracy to commit aggravated murder after planning a "mass casualty event" with an out-of-state adult. The adult, believed to be between 22-24 years old, and the teen discussed plans to use firearms and potentially gas in the attack. The plot was foiled after another student tipped off the police, and the 14-year-old is facing potential transfer to adult court and life in prison if convicted.

Second Police Officer Acquitted in Elijah McClain's Death: Jury Finds No Guilt

A second Colorado police officer, Nathan Woodyard, has been acquitted in the 2019 death of Elijah McClain, a young unarmed Black man. The jury found Woodyard not guilty of manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide. McClain was stopped by Woodyard after a 911 caller described him as "sketchy." Woodyard quickly placed his hands on McClain and later used a neck restraint, rendering him briefly unconscious. Paramedics then injected McClain with ketamine, and he died in the hospital days later. This verdict follows a split decision in an earlier trial involving officers in the same encounter. McClain's death has been central to debates about police brutality and race.
