Raleigh's Ugly Truth and Legal Whispers | Raleigh News

Raleigh’s mayor calls the recent death of a Black man found hanging downtown the “ugliest episode” of her 17-year public career, as police say he acted alone and had mental health struggles — but online critics accuse authorities of a cover-up. Meanwhile, Senator Thom Tillis faces backlash for backing Todd Blanche for U.S. Attorney General, who recently appeared at a presidential rally and hasn’t pledged to keep the Justice Department independent. Federal prosecutors in North Carolina defend charging former FBI Director James Comey over an Instagram post, insisting the decision was theirs and not influenced by Trump. And longtime WRAL host Scott Mason, a fixture since 1997 and award-winning “Tar Heel Traveler,” has left the station — though the show will continue. These stories are igniting fierce debate across the state on leadership, politics, justice, and local media.
