SUMMARY: Deborah Patterson from Raleigh lost nearly $3,000 to an impostor scam after a scammer pretending to be from Microsoft convinced her to give access to her computer and buy gift cards. She shared her story to warn others, despite knowing some might doubt her. Weeks later, Miracle Ministries, Inc., a local nonprofit, surprised her with a $1,000 check as a gesture of support and gratitude for raising awareness. Deborah used the money to pay off the credit card she used for the gift cards. She was deeply grateful for the unexpected kindness and community support.

SUMMARY: A judge ordered the release of body and dash cam footage related to a deadly October 2024 crash in Raleigh that killed Tyrone Mason and led to two state troopers being placed on leave. The footage was sought by a media coalition, including ABC11. Trooper Garrett Marquario and his supervisor are accused of lying about the crash, with Marquario allegedly hiding an attempted traffic stop before the crash. Raleigh police consented to the release, while the State Highway Patrol opposed it due to ongoing internal and FBI investigations. Wake County DA did not object and has dropped nearly 200 cases involving the troopers over credibility concerns. Both troopers remain on administrative leave.

SUMMARY: Since June, over 170 communities have enacted ordinances banning unauthorized camping, following a U.S. Supreme Court ruling. Donald Whitehead, Executive Director of the National Coalition for the Homeless, spoke at the “Bringing it Home 2025” conference, urging opposition to North Carolina’s House Bill 781, which would criminalize unauthorized camping. Whitehead argued criminalization doesn’t solve homelessness, citing studies that show arrests cost communities millions. Governor Josh Stein opposed the bill, advocating for affordable housing solutions. Advocates fear the bill’s passage could diminish local autonomy and increase fiscal responsibility, while policies from the Cicero Institute might profit from criminalizing poverty.
