Shoppers encouraged to support local businesses on Small Business Saturday
SUMMARY: This Saturday is dedicated to supporting small businesses, which often struggle to compete with larger retailers during the holiday season. In Oklahoma, nearly 351,000 small businesses make up 99% of all businesses and employ 50% of the workforce. Shopping local not only supports these businesses but also strengthens the community. The Oklahoma District of the Small Business Association recently highlighted the close-knit relationships between business owners and locals in Henrietta. As you shop for the holidays, remember to visit local shops for unique gifts and to contribute to the growth of your community.

New details in defamation suit against State Supt. Ryan Walters
SUMMARY: A defamation lawsuit has been filed against Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters by Rob Miller, the superintendent of Bixby Public Schools. The case revolves around Walters’ comments made on July 31, where he described Miller as a “liar” and an “embarrassment” in response to inquiries about Miller’s request for Title I funding estimates. Walters’ defense cites immunity under the Oklahoma Government Tort Claims Act, asserting that his statements were made while performing his official duties. A Tulsa County judge recently heard arguments from both parties, with a ruling expected in 30 days.

Edmond police officer seeks immunity in brother's shooting
SUMMARY: Lieutenant Jennifer Haddock of the Edmond Police Department shot her brother, Sean, in August 2023, and is seeking immunity from prosecution under Oklahoma’s Stand Your Ground law. During a 911 call, she reported the incident, stating, “I just shot my brother.” The court documents indicate Sean was under the influence of meth and fentanyl, posing a dangerous threat while blocking her exit in their mother’s apartment. Haddock’s attorney argues she acted in self-defense after attempting de-escalation and faced imminent danger. The law allows individuals to use deadly force if they reasonably believe it’s necessary to prevent significant harm.
