Nashville Councilwoman asks for non-mask wearers to be charged like HIV-carriers if they transmit COVID-19 VIDEO: Metro Councilwoman compares people who transmit COVID-19 without wearing a mask, to those who transmit HIV; asks for them to be similarly charged in the criminal court system – asking if Metro Council can create such legislation. She’s visibly disappointed when she learns she doesn’t have that power. In a special called called Metro Council committee meeting on August 5th, Metro Council member Sharon Hurt asked the Public Safety, Beer & Regulated Beverages, and Health, Hospitals, & Social Services committees joint-session if the council could create criminal legislation to charge citizens who transmitted COVID-19 to another person while not wearing a mask, the same as HIV carriers were charged if they transmitted HIV to another person. Sharon hurt asks: “My question goes back to legislation. I don’t know if Mike Jameson could be the one to answer the question, but m...

DANIELLE BREEZY REVEALS FEELINGS ON CHANNEL 5’S WEATHER TEAM & THEIR WORTH!  A hot mic moment caught WKRN’s Danielle Breezy commenting on Channel 5’s Leland Satom & Bree Smith, including “I don’t think Bree’s that expensive, but I don’t think she’s cheap…. a buck fifty if I had to guess, maybe a little less”.. and the possibility of Nikki-Dee Ray replacing a local meteorologist. Prior to coming to Nashville, and under her birth name, Danielle A Vollmar (aka Danielle Breezy) skirted across the country, stacking up both jobs and criminal charges and citations. In 2012, Oklahoma Highway Patrol cited her for speeding, traveling 80 in a 70 mph zone in a white Mazda. That same year, Breezy was also charged in Arizona with a DUI (BAC .08+), which was later dismissed via plea which set the charge aside. Later that year, Breezy was cited in Dallas County, Texas, for following too close, and not updating her out-of-state license for over 90 days. Danielle is married to rad...

Metropolitan Nashville Police Department CID Captain Jason Reinbold after a small child says "stop saying cuss words The video shows Metro Nashville Police Department Captain Jason Reinbold berating a woman and her family who apparently stopped for a water-and-snack break on the bike path behind his Brentwood home. He appears angry that they've been sitting on the path near his backyard for some time. He invokes "social distancing" even as he walks closer to them, motioning for them to move along. At one point during the confrontation, his wife walks outside to retrieve the dog Reinbold is holding before returning inside. He continues, and even begins calling the woman "Karen" — an apparent reference to the name used by some people online to mock a particular sort of white woman.  A transcript of one brief part of the exchange: Reinbold : "This is the most bizarre thing that I've ever seen." Woman : "You know what, I don...

Local crime victims say they're being ripped off twice, once by the crooks who steal their cars and a second time by the city of Nashville. Owners of cars stolen and used in crimes in Nashville are forced to pay a fee to get their car back from the Metro Police impound lot. Cars stolen and used in crimes are housed there to either give the victim time to recover their car or it’s held as evidence for some criminal cases. Owners have about three days to pick it up the car before daily storage fees begin to add up. The starting cost for most vehicles to be claimed is $200. Victims say it’s not fair to pay for a crime someone committed against them and Councilman Freddie O’Connell agrees. He says the city shouldn’t profit off of someone being a victim. “It’s the weirdest feeling to pay the city because I didn’t do anything. I’m literally sitting here minding my business and now all of a sudden, I have to pay a couple hundred dollars just to get my vehicle back,” said O’Conn...

Living on the streets brings extra interactions with law enforcement, but Tennessee’s capital is taking steps to reimagine justice. Paul Arndt sells magazines in a camp chair in his typical spot. He was arrested for obstruction of passageway in the following weeks. Paul Arndt knows all about people experiencing homelessness having encounters with the police. He used to live in the recently closed encampment under the Jefferson Street Bridge, a place where many nonprofits frequent, giving aid to the homeless living there.  Every so often, police will force these encampments to clear out, citing trespassing laws.

Arndt is 65 years old and legally blind. Unable to stand for long periods of time, he had brought a camp chair to sit on while he...
