Despite tomorrow being one of the biggest shopping days of the year, some big stores plan to open as early as 5 pm this evening to get an early start on all of the sales. Elias despite being weeks away from implementation, a judges ruling could pose a problem for iowas medicaid modernization plan. Elias a ruling released wednesday afternoon calls for iowa to throw out one of four contracts awarded to for Profit Companies to manage the states medicaid program. Due to millions of dollars in fines for fraud in other states and having three former executives going to jail for fraud, the judge ruled that iowa should throw out the contract with wellcare. Despite the ruling, Governer Terry Branstad issued a statement saying hed felt confident the plan would remain on schedule. The medicaid privatization plan is set to take effect january first. Many say the governors deadline of january first is way too agressive. The 560thousand iowans on medicaid just received these packets in the mail asking them to choose a new managed care provider. The problem is, people dont know if their current doctors and hospitals have contracts with any of the four Companies Taking over iowas medicaid program. Greg 6 41 when weve contacted larger Health Care Systems in the state, des moines metro hospitals, theyve indicated they havent signed contracts with any of the mcos.

But be sure to take extra caution while driving. Iowa state troopers say there is usually a spike in accidents during the holiday season. And this year is no different. Drivers face weather concerns along with more cars on the roadways. Fatalities this year, a number Highway Patrol doesnt want to see increase. Iowa state trooper john farley we never want to see that fatality count go up and it takes everybody. Obviously it takes Law Enforcement through education and enforcement actions, but it takes drivers too to make sure that theyre really concentrating on those defensive driving skills, elias iowa will have more troopers present and active on the roads to ensure that traffic is under control and safe driving practices are taking place, which includes wearing your seatbelt.

A young man from clive who drowned after being arrested for public intoxication at the lake of the ozarks. Now. A whistleblower inside the Missouri State patrols tells local 5 that coverups, lies and corruption are lies and corruption are protecting the person whos to blame for brandons death. Local 5s Nikki Davidson traveled to the lake for the ozarks for this special report. nat barking just a few miles from the lake of the ozarks in missouri come here this is how randy henry is spending the first few days of his retirement. With his also retired partner. A former k9 officer. good boy but his dog. Is just about the only thing hes kept from his 30 years with the state patrol. Most Everything Else hes gotten rid of. 23 30 25 i had my retirement letter typed up, i couldnt wait to hit send. One of the happiest days of my life. As sergeant anymore. Its a reminder of what he says is a mistake that will stay with him forever. 23 29 36 that is something youll never forget. I was part of this organization. We all have to take responsibility, its something that will stay with us for the rest of our lives. The mistake. He says was when missouri Highway Patrol merged its road and water operations. And he was in charge of signing off on the training of a trooper named anthony piercy. 2 50 27 they enouraged him to the the first 20 20 20 officer, 20 dui on road, 20 bwi and 20 drug arrests. They actively encouraged him to be top dog, and i think that had a little to do with all of this. Rush rush so we can get to the next one. He says piercy wasnt experienced enough on the water to be making arrests. So when he took 20 year old Brandon Ellingson into custody for boating while intoxicated may 2014. It was a perfect storm. He killed Brandon Ellingson, said he went from the highest of highs to lowest lows. Piercy handcuffed ellingson. And later investigations show he placed the wrong type of lifejacket on him 22 33;54 he said he had a brainfart. Just picked the first one, he was in a rush to get out. And took off on speeds topping 40 mph. When ellingson fell out into the water. The lifejacket fell off. Henry says thats when piercy continued to fail horribly to do the right thing. 23 03 39 it was a very simple rescue, if he had maintained his wits, jumped in and told people he could have held onto him for over an hour, you dont let a kid out there while youre in the boat. He didnt even call for backup. Piercy did eventually jump into recover ellingson, but said he wasnt able to keep ahold of him. And says he struggled to stay afloat and worried for his own safety. Its a story randy henry says changed over time. 23 02 17 i told him he was lying, i was gonna support you through this. Youre lying to me. We are done. Im not gonna support you. You killed this kid, now youre lying about it. You are not very remorseful if youre lying about it. Nikki what did he say . Nothing. He walked out. I havent spoken to him since. Lies and mistakes. That randy henry says was paid for with Brandon Ellingsons life. 22 55 34 could brandon have done anything differently . No. Brandon ellingson was cooperative, you can see that in the photo show photo 23 23 26 missiouri Highway Patrol killed brandon, tony being responsible, but i share in that responsibility. When it came time for the state coroner to investigate if piercy should face criminal charges, henry says Highway Patrol purposely withheld evidence and witnesses to change the outcome of the investigation. 23 07 23 if the jury had seen all the evidence, i could have accepted this but the evidence was witheld. The system is broke and no one was held accountable for that. Today piercy is still on the job. A fact henry struggles with. 23 05 41 i believe there are elements there for involuntary manslaughter. Nikki should he be in jail . Not saying he needs to be in jail. But charged with a felony and let the courts decide. Henry himself was demoted and transferred to another area after he claims officals encouraged him to lie about the strength of their Training Program on the record. He says now hes done with the organization. And isnt looking back. But believes changes need to be made. Or this could happen again and again. 23 25 27 until missiouri Highway Patrol gets out of the practice of investigating themselves. This isnt going to work. Elias we tried contacting the wont respond to our request for any comment. A new special prosecutor will be investigating, and the ellingson family has filed a civil case.
