CRIME NEWS

  • Governor Kelly Armstrong signed nearly 500 bills into law on April 29 that cap insulin prices for commercial plans at 25 dollars a month — a rule that does not apply to self-insured plans — and set up a public website for Legacy Fund investments while also repealing a decades-old law on HIV penalties. The legislature must finish its 80-day session by May 9.  AM 1100 The Flag
  • Fargo Police Chief David Zibolski supports a new ND bill that would let police ticket a vehicle's owner even if they were not driving—legislation passed by the Legislature has been sent to Governor Kelly Armstrong for review. Critics argue the law could remove the presumption of innocence and challenge constitutional rights—opponents call for further review.  AM 1100 The Flag
  • Fargo Police Chief David Zibolski supports a new law that would ticket vehicle owners for fleeing vehicles—even if they were not driving, and the Legislature passed the bill and sent it to Governor Kelly Armstrong for review; opponents say it might infringe on constitutional rights.  WDAY Radio
