Former St. Paul officer denied early release from prison. Zebra mussels cause tension for Red Lake Nation and DNR


Listen Later

A judge this week denied a former St. Paul police officer's request for early release from federal prison. In late 2019, a jury convicted former officer Brett Palkowitsch for a 2016 incident where he kicked Frank Baker and allowed a K-9 to maul him when officers mistook Baker for a robbery suspect.


And tensions bubbled between a Red Lake tribal official and the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources last week over how to combat invasive species like zebra mussels at Upper Red Lake. 


This is an MPR News morning update, hosted by Jacob Aloi. Music by Gary Meister.
