GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn. — Wisconsin teacher charged with planting hidden cameras
A Wisconsin high school teacher is charged with using hidden recording devices in an attempt to produce child pornography. David M. Kruchten, 37, was arrested Thursday morning at his home in Cottage Grove, Wisconsin. He was charged after an indictment was unsealed accusing Kruchten of attempting to produce child pornography. Specifically, the indictment charges the Madison East High School teacher with seven counts of "attempting to use a minor to engage in sexually explicit conduct for the purpose of producing a visual depiction of the conduct." The indictment alleges that he attempted to produce the child pornography in Wisconsin using footage hidden recording devices on Oct. 27, 2019, and on Jan. 20, 2019. On Dec. 7, 2019, hidden recording devices were also reported at the Minneapolis Hyatt Regency hotel, where students from Madison East were staying. In that case, the school district said a staff member was placed on leave "as a precautionary measure. "Minneapolis Police confirmed to KARE 11 that they are an investigative partner in the Wisconsin indictment that came down Thursday. However, charges have not been filed with regard to the Minneapolis investigation.
For LaVonne Borsheim, the pain was so intense following surgeries and infections her husband says she wanted to die. LaVonne had been prescribed powerful pain medication that should have helped dull the agony. Even the doctors couldn’t figure out why they weren’t working. Then they did blood and urine tests. That’s when they discovered there were no pain meds in her system. It was a stunning revelation. Roger says initially he believed the doctors were accusing him of stealing the medicine. But suspicion quickly turned to their home health nurse. They’d soon discover their nurse had been stealing her opioid pain pills and taking them himself. Even worse, they found out he had been accused of the same thing months earlier – but the system set up to protect patients had failed them, too.
Winona Ryder is shining a big spotlight on the Minnesota city that inspired her name, thanks to a new "Welcome to Winona" Super Bowl commercial and ad campaign for Square Space. Though the Super Bowl commercial is short and simply features the actor sitting in the snow near a "Welcome to Winona" sign outside of town, it directs people to a website which features a three minute film with many local faces and places. Some of the scenes in the ad can't actually be found in Winona, including the big welcome sign where the Super Bowl ad takes place. The crew built a sign specifically for the commercial and shot the scene a few miles out of town. But nobody is too worried about being upstaged when Winona gets its chance to shine on Sunday.
