The 10-year-old Milwaukee boy accused of shooting and killing his mother because she woke him up early and refused to buy him video game equipment faced a judge Friday afternoon.

The boy appeared in juvenile court for his preliminary hearing. He walked into court and sat next to his defense team who had a stuffed animal waiting for him to hold during proceedings. He couldn't take it back with him into juvenile detention. He also waved to family members as he walked out.

Though the family did not want to talk, in previous interviews they shared the boy has mental health issues, which ended up being the focus of Friday's proceedings. The boy’s defense attorney, Angela Cunningham, requested the 10-year-old undergo a competency evaluation with a doctor.

10-year-old accused of killing mother to undergo competency evaluation

It's a topic that often comes with heated debate: should people in Wisconsin have to prove they are working or are looking for a job in order to receive welfare benefits?

The issue is heating up again in Madison. Wisconsin lawmakers will vote Tuesday on whether to add an advisory referendum to the April election ballot. It would ask whether able-bodied, childless adults should be required to look for work in order to receive state welfare benefits.

It's a move led by Assembly Speaker Robin Vos and Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu - both Republicans.

“I don't agree with it,” said Angle Whitelow. “I am on welfare, I don’t have a job, and it’s hard to find a job. It would make life harder for so many people. It feels like a hit on the poor and disadvantaged. Some jobs prefer higher education, I may not have that. Others prefer a clean background; some people may not have that.”

If passed, the referendum would have no effect. But political experts say it's an issue that conservatives are passionate about.

Lawmakers to vote on whether to add welfare question to April ballot

A 15-year-old girl is hospitalized with critical injuries after being shot near 17th and Capitol Thursday night. Milwaukee police are still investigating and have no one in custody for it.

On Friday morning, Mayor Cavalier Johnson, local activists, and people directly impacted by gun violence gathered at city hall to declare this first week of February, “National Gun Violence Survivors Week” in Milwaukee.

Gun violence has become a public health crisis in the city, and leaders are asking everyone who lives and works here, to get involved in solutions.

Mothers who lost children are leading effort to end gun violence

Tamira Greene lives a few houses down from where an 11-year-old boy was shot in his own home Wednesday night. 

Police markings show at least seven holes where bullets pierced the siding of the house and front door.

Milwaukee Police are still investigating what led to this crime. No one is in custody for it.

It happened around 6:15 p.m. on North 65th Street near West Silver Spring Drive.

“I heard the gunshots and dropped down to the floor,” Greene said. “Then I find out it’s an innocent little boy who got hit. I see him every day on his way to school.”

Greene is fed up with people not speaking up when they know who’s responsible for crimes like this.

11-year-old boy shot in his home, neighbors fed up with crime

The 5-year-old Pewaukee girl who was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer and who was honored by the community for her final birthday has died.

"I'm sitting here and my heart and soul is shredding," said Heather Krings, Delaney's mom.

In October of 2022, Children's Wisconsin doctors diagnosed Delaney Krings with Diffuse Midline Glioma. They told her and her family she had as long as two months to live.

Delaney's story touched the hearts of thousands who learned that the then 4-year-old would be celebrating her final birthday last Dec. 16.

It prompted the Pewaukee community and others across the world to help throw her a birthday parade unlike any other.

Girl with cancer who community threw final birthday for dies at age 5

Community organizers announced their demands for change after another inmate died in the Milwaukee County Jail on Sunday.

Octaviano Juarez-Corro, 49, was found unresponsive in his cell Sunday morning and could not be revived despite lifesaving measures, according to the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office. The incident is being investigated by the Waukesha County Sheriff's Department.

On Tuesday, the Milwaukee Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression (MAARPR) issued a statement noting that Juarez-Corro's death is part of a troubling trend of inmate deaths at the same jail. MAARPR called for changes to promote accountability and transparency.

The alliance demanded: full transparency in the investigation of Milwaukee County Jail deaths, officials release names of people involved within 24 hours and related videos within 48 hours, as well as the creation of an elected civilian police accountability council.

Activists demand changes after another inmate death at county jail

Delaney Krings has a laugh that instantly makes you smile. But underneath those giggles, lies a battle no four-year-old should ever have to go through.

Doctors diagnosed her last month with an extremely rare and aggressive form of terminal brain cancer.

"All you want to do is trade places. All you want to do is take her pain away," said Delaney's mom, Heather Witt-Krings.

Jack and Heather Krings learned of their daughter's diagnosis in October after taking her to urgent care for what they thought was just an ear infection. But when the medicine didn't work, they knew something was wrong.

4-year-old with terminal brain cancer to celebrate final birthday

Ever since the start of the pandemic, driver’s education students in Wisconsin have been able to get a license without taking a road test with the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).

That waiver is still in effect as long as the student’s parent offers consent.

The D.M.V. says it wants to make the waiver permanent, but some driver’s education instructors think it’s making the roads more dangerous.

Going to the D.M.V. for a road test is usually the last step for new drivers to prove they’re prepared to safely drive the streets before getting their license. That hasn’t been the case for a majority of 16 and 17-year-olds coming out of driver’s education over the past few years.

The D.M.V. says 108,000 road test waivers have been approved. That makes up 87 percent of driver’s education students who have received their license since May 2020.

DMV wants to make road test waiver program permanent

The Wisconsin Department of Health Services has barred a Kenosha senior living center from taking in new residents until it complies with health and safety standards.

The state's Division of Quality Assurance investigated Parkside Manor Assisted Living and Memory Care following the death of an 89-year-old resident on Dec 19.

According to police, she was found outside the facility and died from exposure to the cold. Neither police nor Parkside Manor has identified the woman.

The state's investigation found that the woman had been admitted to Parkside with dementia, though upon initial assessment of her health, she did not exhibit "behavioral issues" or "wander."

However, she began to wander and eventually attempted to exit the facility several times, according to the investigation. None of those interventions or a need to increase her supervision level were noted in her individualized service plan, the investigation shows.

Today is nice... but Wednesday is looking a little bit snowy

We're about a year and a half away from the arrival of the 2024 Republican National Convention and today, we learned a few new details from officials.

Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel said during the press briefing Thursday that "You should be able to expect that we'll have a debate here in Milwaukee."

Host committee Chief Executive Officer Steve King said they are working with a Chicago-based firm OnPeak to arrange contracts with 300-400 hotels in Wisconsin in a 60-mile radius to help house the convention’s visitors.

Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson joined King, McDaniel, and MKE 2024 Host Committee Chair Reince Priebus on Thursday to officially mark the journey to the convention.

"We've got a few political differences, but we are united and that we have a desire to make sure that Milwaukee shines in the summer of 2024," Mayor Johnson said.

Prep continues for 2024 Republican National Convention in Milwaukee

Contrary to popular belief, you don’t need snow to snowboard. All you need is a simulator.

“I can think of two people personally in January," Jared Masters said. "They snowboarded for their first time and by the end of 15 minutes we’re very comfortable snowboarding.”

Masters owns Urban Slopes. It's a ski and snowboard simulator business. Inside his shop at N35W23770 Capitol Dr. in Pewaukee, there are two ski and two snowboard simulators. They are the same ones Team USA uses to train. 

The simulators essentially act as one long continuous run. You save time not waiting in a chairlift or dodging people on the slopes.

The Milwaukee Admirals are asking fans to pack Panther Arena for PRIDE Night, which celebrates the LGBTQ+ community.

Admirals PRIDE Night ticket packages for the game against the Grand Rapids Griffins on Tuesday sold out in advance.

There will be a pre-game mixer, and right after the game, there will be a drag show with drag queens from Hamburger Mary’s in Milwaukee.

There is also a new line of rainbow-colored Admirals PRIDE merchandise created for the event.

The Admirals shared a Facebook post advertising the drag show that started with “The Queens are back.” It got a lot of angry comments from people not supportive of the team’s PRIDE Night theme.

There have even been some requests to return tickets to the game.
