SUMMARY: Robinson County Sheriff Bernes Wilkins reported heightened security during prisoner Michael McLen’s court hearing. McLen, who pled guilty to the kidnapping and murder of 13-year-old Hana Aguilar and was sentenced to life in prison, made two escape attempts. He first tried using a homemade handcuff key but was stopped by deputies. Returning to prison, McLen grabbed a deputy’s gun during a struggle before being subdued with pepper spray. Eyewitnesses noted his courtroom demeanor seemed insincere, raising questions about potential additional charges from the escape attempts.

SUMMARY: Egg prices are rising, with a 10.4% increase since January, averaging $5.90 per dozen. This surge is attributed to inflation and bird flu. Consumers can find prices between $7 and $9 depending on various factors, including egg types like cage-free and free-range. The Elliot family highlights the rising costs, purchasing 18 eggs for $10. While cage-free means hens aren’t caged, they may still be kept indoors. Organic eggs require no synthetic feed and must have some outdoor access. Terms like “farm fresh” and “natural” lack meaningful definitions. Eggs can remain safe to eat 3 to 5 weeks after refrigeration.
