CMPD officer Anthony Holzhauer has been cleared of wrongdoing in the shooting death of 20-year-old Jamisha Fonville.

"Fonville’s family has said the past cases show CMPD should bring in an independent agency to investigate this time. Like many departments around the country, CMPD investigates shootings involving its officers on its own."
If N.C. Senate Bill 700 gets anywhere, hospitals and other nonprofits could see cuts in their revenue.
