Description
It’s the Friday news roundup! We’re talking about a municipal judge’s decision to dismiss murder charges against former Philadelphia Police Officer Mark Dial, less than two months after he shot and killed 27-year-old Eddie Irizarry. We’ll also get into how social media fueled looting at local liquor stores and retail shops this week, as well as why Philly cares so much about whether Taylor Swift is dating Kansas City Chiefs' player Travis Kelce. Lead producer Laura Benshoff is filling in for host Trenae Nuri, and talks with Rodrigo Torrejón, criminal justice reporter for The Philadelphia Inquirer, and Asha Prihar, general assignment reporter for Billy Penn.
