Published Tue, 24 Dec 2024 19:47:25 GMT

SAN FRANCISCO — Steve Kerr relayed an ominous stat Thursday, before the Warriors tried to even their conference-semifinals series with the Lakers.“Three of the last four championship coaches have been fired,” Kerr said. “It just happens quickly. I mean, expectations every year for every team are so high, and only one team can win.”Earlier Thursday, the Milwaukee Bucks fired Mike Budenholzer, two years after he led them to the NBA title but only a day after his top-seeded team got eliminated in the first round by the Miami Heat.“It’s sad news for the coaching profession,” Kerr added. “We all believe Bud deserved a lot better. But we’re all aware this is the job we chose.”Also out of a job not long after hoisting the Larry O’Brien Trophy were: Nick Nurse, from the Toronto Raptors on April 21, four years after beating the Warriors in the NBA Finals; and, Frank Vogel, from the Lakers in April 2022, two years after winning the f...

Children under 13 would not be prosecuted under proposed bill

Published Tue, 24 Dec 2024 19:47:25 GMT

DENVER (KDVR) — A proposed bipartisan bill that would no longer allow children 12 and under to be prosecuted for crimes has stirred a fiery controversy. House Bill 23-1249 upset some police chiefs so much, they showed up at the Colorado Capitol on Wednesday, pleading with lawmakers not to move forward with the measure. There were also parents pleading with lawmakers, saying the bill would be a huge mistake. The bill changes the minimum age a child can be prosecuted by a juvenile court.

How does Colorado’s minimum juvenile prosecution age compare to other states? Police in Aurora and the city's mayor, along with other police chiefs, are staunchly against the bill. Some of them say it would encourage adults to have children do their dirty work. "The adults started figuring out that they ...
