On July 30th of this year, a Minnesota police officer was shot to death during a routine traffic stop. According to the Star Tribune, a 39-year-old man fled the scene and had a shootout with law enforcement, taking eight bullets. The man survived and is set to stand trial. His attorneys have requested that some of the evidence be suppressed, including statements that the defendant made while in the hospital.

A cult leader in Minnesota came under fire earlier this year when he was accused of abusing two girls in the community. According to Fox Twin Cities, the pastor fled the state but has been charged with 59 counts of sexual misconduct, including child molestation. The women accusing him of the behavior said that when they were 12 and 13 years old, they moved in with him and a number of other girls. They claim they were abused for a period of 10 years. A criminal defense attorney Minneapolis defendants can trust will be an essential part of this man’s case.
