Lemrick Nelson Jr and co defendant Charles Price face federal civil rights charges in the Yankel Rosenbaum stabbing case. Nelson, 21, was acquitted of murder in 1992 in state court. The trial featured Nelson’s pants slipping to the floor as the defense argued the baggy jeans were planted by police. A separate report notes a freighter grounded near Sugarloaf Key inside the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary, causing potential reef damage but no hull harm.
