Missouri Governor Mike Parson on Thursday shot down a call for a special session to clarify how Missouri's abortion ban law relates to medical emergencies and contraceptives. Missouri law prohibits most abortions except in cases of medical emergency, though medical providers and pregnant Missourians have feared legal retribution as state law provides little specificity on what constitutes a medical emergency.

Jury Selected in Trial of Man Accused of Killing David Dorn
A jury was seated this afternoon for next week's murder trial of one of the men accused of killing David Dorn, a former St. Louis Metropolitan Police Officer who died while attempting to protect a pawn shop in the Ville neighborhood in north city from looting in the wake of the 2020 police murder of George Floyd.

Dorn, who was 77, helped out with security for Lee's Pawn and Jewelry on the 4100 block of Dr. Martin Luther King Drive, which was owned by a friend.
