COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Deliberations started over again with a replacement juror Thursday in the murder trial of a former Ohio sheriff’s deputy accused of pursuing a motorist and killing the man at his family's home. The panel had deliberated for more than three hours Wednesday before a male juror was dismissed and replaced by an alternate, also male. He said he then shot Goodson in the doorway of his grandmother's home because Goodson turned to lift the gun toward him. Meade, who is a pastor at a Baptist church, shot Goodson six times, including five times in the back, police have said. They do not dispute that Goodson may have been carrying a gun, but note that he had a license to carry a firearm.

Meade, who is white, is charged with murder and reckless homicide in the December 2020 killing in Columbus of Goodson, who was Black. Meade maintains that he shot Goodson because he brandished a gun. Meade, who is a pastor at a Baptist church, shot Goodson six times, including five times in the back, as Goodson tried to enter his grandmother’s house, police have said.

This Summer We’re Helping Scientists Track Birds. This data will help scientists understand better how birds are affected by forces like climate change and habitat loss. We’re obviously a little bit biased here, so I’m going to recommend the Merlin Bird ID app. Nearly half of all bird species worldwide are known or suspected to be in decline, and climate change could accelerate this trend. Look up past reports of that species on the eBird Species Map and zoom in on your city.
