The family of an eleven-year-old Virginia Beach boy is upset with the decision to suspend him from school after he reported another student for bringing a bullet to class.Preview: The family of a woman killed in a drunk driving crash in Henrico County continues to be disappointed with the legal system. A man on trial for his role in the 2022 crash that killed 26-year-old Claire Wenzel was found not guilty yesterday. The other suspect was already convicted and sentenced to 12 months, but he was let out after a few months. Wenzel's family wanted a stronger punishment, and they're pushing for a change in state law that would make that possible. Her sister tells 8News Claire would be happy to know we're keeping her memory alive and advocating for her and not letting anyone forget.
More "he said, she said" at the Richmond Tax Collection office. Richmond Inspector General Jim Osuna claims he was advised by city attorneys to halt his investigation into tax collection issues in the Department of Finance, but the city attorney's office denies giving such instructions. Osuna informed City Council that he had paused his probe after receiving legal advice that it was outside his office's purview. City Council passed an ordinance in March requiring the finance department to notify taxpayers of any credits on their accounts, but questions remain about the status of Osuna's investigation and whether city attorneys ordered him to stop. The city spokesperson refuted Osuna's claims, stating that the city was in compliance with existing law regarding tax overpayments.
