Good morning, Stockton.
The aftermath of an April shooting involving ICE agents in Patterson is still being felt across the Central Valley.
Lillian Perlmutter takes a closer look at the shooting and its impact. The case comes as national attention grows around encounters involving federal immigration agents and the use of force. In Patterson, the incident has stretched beyond a single moment, raising legal questions and leaving many searching for clarity.
And we’ve got you covered if you are aiming for a fun-filled weekend. There’s something for everyone, from garden tours to stage performances. We even take a look at one of the monster trucks rolling into the Asparagus Festival (hint: its tires are almost as tall as me).
Finally, former Vice Mayor Kimberly Warmsley reflects on the small ways people can shape a child’s future.
Thank you for reading and for staying connected to Stockton.
