About this episode
Marc Cox and Kim discuss severe weather, teen fights at Six Flags, and the Pam Hupp death penalty deal.
In the St. Louis Morning Brief, Marc Cox and Kim review Monday’s severe weather outbreak after the National Weather Service issued 26 tornado warnings and confirmed at least three tornadoes in Illinois, while noting St. Louis narrowly avoided the baseball-sized hail devastation seen in Springfield. They then turn to Six Flags St. Louis reinstating its chaperone policy after opening-day fights involving dozens of teens required a heavy police response, prompting debate over parenting, social media-fueled mob behavior, and why the rule was ever relaxed. The segment closes with reaction to prosecutors dropping the death penalty in the Pam Hupp case in exchange for a bench trial over the murder of Betsy Faria, followed by criticism of St. Louis County Executive Sam Page as Marc questions local political accountability.
