Garrett Ziegler of Long Lake, MN has plead guilty to fire bombing a courthouse during the Floyd unrest and has been sentenced to five years in prison.

He was also sentenced to three years of supervised released and ordered to pay nearly $206,000 in restitution.

Ziegler and 33-year-old Fornandous Cortez Henderson, of Savage, used Molotov cocktails to set fire to the Western Service Center in Apple Valley, a government building that houses the courts and various agencies. Henderson also pleaded guilty in the case and was sentenced in December to more than six years in prison, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reported.

On Jan. 25, U.S. Magistrate Judge Michael J. Frank agreed that Baker posed a potential threat and ordered him held without bond, writing that the former soldier had “repeatedly endorsed violent means to advance the political beliefs that he espouses.”

Well that's hilariously unconstitu... Oh wait.

Arresting Ali Sharem Ourecox doesn’t seem like an entirely bad idea in this instance.

Ahmaud Arbery's mother Wanda Cooper has filed a civil suit against his killers and the police involved with the coverup. She is seeking $1M per defendant.

The suit names Gregory and Travis McMichael, the father and son, as well as William "Roddie" Bryan, all of whom are white and facing felony murder charges in connection to Arbery's death.

The suit also names law enforcement officials and local prosecutors who it claims were intimately involved with an alleged cover-up and "willfully and maliciously conspired to follow, threaten, detain and kill Ahmaud Arbery."

The complaint lists fourteen counts including excessive force, failure to prevent harm and willful and wonton misconduct. It says the defendants "were motivated to deprive Ahmaud Arbery of equal protection of the law and his rights by racial bias, animus, discrimination."

Update 3/1, 12:27 p.m.: During a council meeting held after the publication of this piece, the city canceled its plans to hire social media influencers. The original story follows below.

The city of Minneapolis is planning to hire six social media influencers to spread city-friendly propaganda during the trial of Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer who killed George Floyd. The city hopes that the information campaign will prevent further protests in the city.

According to CBSN 4 in Minnesota, the influencers will intentionally target Black, Native American, Somali, Hmong, and Latinx communities during the trial. Each influencer will be paid $2,000.
