Rice County Attorney John Fossum is bringing the office's Victim Witness Coordinator to talk about their Start By Believing campaign.

This is a nationwide effort to educate all of us about being more responsive to sexual assault victims and victims of domestic abuse. May is Domestic Abuse Awareness Month.

Shawn Becker is the Rice County Victim Witness Coordinator and started in the position the first of the year.

Fossum also wants to enlighten listeners about some recent scams that have been seen around the area.

I always enjoy taking the questions you have and having them answered, so don't hesitate to text your questions to (507) 838-5233 and we will ask the county attorney.

There's a desire by many in the state legislature to have some of the sentences reduced for drug offenses. In fact, the Minnesota Sentencing Guidelines Commission is behind some of suggestions and I believe the Minnesota County Attorney's Association is not in favor of the changes. We will ask about that.

If you can't tune in at 9:30AM, make sure you watch the show on our YouTube channel so you are informed.
