A new Arizona law offering compensation for wrongful convictions has drawn at least 11 claims seeking millions, quickly overwhelming the state’s $3 million fund and prompting talks of program fixes.
Proposed legislation aims to penalize individuals who use social media or messaging apps to alert others of nearby enforcement actions. Critics argue the bill infringes on free speech, while supporters claim it's a necessary step for officer safety.
Rainy days are expected this week in Tucson, but the weekend is likely to be sunny and warm.
