SUMMARY: Endrina Bracho, charged with involuntary manslaughter in the death of 12-year-old Travis Wolfe, was released from jail without bond one year after the crash. Bracho, who drove on the wrong side of the road at 75 mph, also faces charges of assault and child endangerment. Despite being considered a flight risk, she was freed on her own recognizance but must wear a monitoring device and cannot drive or contact the Wolfe family. Travis’ sister, Taylor, expressed anger over Bracho’s release, noting that their family will never get to see Travis again. The next hearing is scheduled for January 23.

SUMMARY: The Missouri MetroLink system is implementing new security measures with gates and fencing at several stations, starting in the Central West End. The upgrades, part of Metro’s Secure Platform Plan, include 8-foot welded wire fencing and secure entry/exit gates, designed to prevent unauthorized access. These measures are already in place at stations like Emerson Park and will expand to others, including Delmar and Forest Park. Security personnel will manually operate gates until a new fare collection system is installed. Metro’s approach is unique, as it aims to make light rail systems fully secure across the United States.

SUMMARY: Juan Soto recently signed a historic 15-year, $765 million contract, the largest in U.S. sports history. In contrast, Albert Pujols, who previously held a significant record, earned less than half of that over 22 seasons. Adjusted for inflation, Pujols’ earlier contracts could be worth around $198 million and $355 million today. Analyzing their performance, Pujols excelled in key offensive stats, suggesting he could command around $1.23 billion if entering free agency now. While various factors might temper this figure, Pujols could rival Soto’s record, highlighting the evolving dynamics of MLB contract values.
