David Keith Joseph Chatman, 38, of Virginia, Minnesota was sentenced yesterday after  pleading guilty in October 2022 to Aiding and Abetting Third-Degree Murder in  connection with the October 19, 2021, overdose death of Brooke Ann Miller.

Chatman contacted his co-defendant, Torisa Sulvoris Wallace, and coordinated the drug sale between Wallace and Miller that ultimately led to Miller’s death. In exchange for  Chatman’s guilty plea, the St. Louis County Attorney’s Office requested the  presumptive 86-month prison sentence.

The Honorable Robert C. Friday sentenced Chatman to 43 months in prison, a  downward durational departure. In September 2022, the Honorable Michelle M.
Anderson sentenced Chatman’s co-defendant, Wallace, to 134 months in prison after Wallace pleaded guilty to Third-Degree Murder in connection with Miller’s overdose death.

Both cases were prosecuted by Assistant County Attorney Chris Florey.

Third Street ramp back open — mostly

The Third Street ramp is back. Not perfect, but close enough. Pull in slow, nod to the crew finishing the last section, and take that skywalk like you own it — because for a couple months there, you didn’t.

We headed down to the bridge for what we called a “feasibility study.” Translation: three guys staring at the water with thermoses. “Looks cold enough to me,” Dale said. “Yep,” Roger nodded. “Perfect for servers.”

The truth is, rural health care isn’t dying—it’s evolving into something the rest of us can barely afford to witness. The doctors are trying, the nurses are saints, but the paperwork alone could clog an artery. Somewhere along the line, healing became a subscription service.
