Democratic Minnesota state senator’s own party calling for her resignation after burglary charge
Democratic Minnesota state Sen. Nicole Mitchell’s own party is calling for her resignation over a month after she was charged with burglary for allegedly breaking into her stepmother’s home to get her late father’s ashes and some of his personal belongings.
Ken Martin, chairman of the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party, said in a statement released on Thursday that “elected officials should be held accountable, including members of our own party.”
“While Sen. Mitchell is entitled to her day in court, her continued refusal to take responsibility for her actions is beneath her office and has become a distraction for her district and the Legislature,” Martin said. “Now that her constituents have had full representation through the end of the legislative session, it is time for her to resign to focus on the personal and legal challenges she faces.”
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, a Democrat, also said last week that Mitchell should resign, FOX9 Minneapolis reported.

Mitchell was removed from committee assignments and caucus meetings after she was arrested at her stepmother’s home on April 22. The state senator was later charged with first-degree burglary.
Mitchell has denied the allegations and claimed that she was merely checking on an ill loved one.

According to a criminal complaint, Mitchell acknowledged that she entered through a window and told investigators she was trying to get her late father’s ashes, photos, a flannel shirt and other items of sentimental value, claiming her stepmother had stopped speaking to her after her father’s death and refused to give her the items.

Wisconsin’s Most Wanted: John Luckett
U.S. Marshals are searching for a man charged with smuggling drugs into jail that killed his cellmate. John Luckett bonded out and is now on the run.
MILWAUKEE – U.S. Marshals are searching for a man charged with smuggling drugs into jail that killed his cellmate. John Luckett bonded out and is now on the run.
John Luckett on the run
What we know:
“It clearly shows no remorse for the victim,” the U.S. Marshal on the case said.
In May 2025, Luckett was booked into the Milwaukee County Jail on gun charges. Hours later, a corrections officer checked his cell.

“His cellmate started to experience a medical emergency and eventually passed away from what was eventually learned to be a narcotics overdose,” the marshal explained.
A criminal complaint explains, officers searched Luckett’s body and found drugs hidden in his underwear.
“That’s when they found the five bags of narcotics, and those narcotics tested positive for cocaine and fentanyl,” the marshal said.
Luckett eventually bonded out, and was showing up to court. That changed when he was charged with first-degree reckless homicide. A warrant was issued for Luckett’s arrest. U.S. Marshals say he is still in the Milwaukee area.
“He’s already killed one person with these drugs and if he’s still out there dealing now, he’s endangering the public,” the marshal said.

Report: Pistons Targeting 7-Time All-Star Wing to Pair With Cade Cunningham

The 2026 NBA offseason looks to be an interesting one for the Detroit Pistons, who are fresh off a 60-win regular season. The Pistons have had one of the most impressive turnarounds in recent history, going from the hands-down worst team in basketball to the top seed in the Eastern Conference.
Detroit’s future is centered around none other than rising superstar point guard Cade Cunningham, who is coming off an MVP-caliber season and one of the best individual campaigns in franchise history. For Cunningham to continue turning the tide in Detroit and ascending individually, the Pistons will need to land their 24-year-old point guard some help.
Could Pistons Feature Another All-Star Around Cade Cunningham?


GettyCHICAGO, ILLINOIS – OCTOBER 22: Jalen Duren #0 and Cade Cunningham #2 of the Detroit Pistons high five against the Chicago Bulls during the second half at the United Center on October 22, 2025 in Chicago, Illinois.
While Cunningham is largely responsible for transcending the Pistons’ fortunes, Jalen Duren, the rising 22-year-old big man, is also to thank for the success. But for Detroit to rise into legitimate title contender status, it may need to feature another star.
According to ClutchPoints NBA insider Brett Siegel, the Pistons have their eyes on Kawhi Leonard of the Los Angeles Clippers. Leonard, a seven-time All-Star could be an addition that would take Detroit over the hump.
“Now, if a team approached them with a massive trade offer for the seven-time All-Star, they would have to at least consider the idea of taking a step back and moving on from Leonard, especially since he turns 35 years old on Monday,” Siegel reported. “Multiple teams, including the Warriors, Timberwolves, and Pistons, have contacted the Clippers both at the trade deadline and this offseason to inquire about Leonard’s availability. At no point did Los Angeles show any interest in trading him, sources said.”
While the Clippers have not formally made Leonard available, Siegel reports there is a chance the franchise would look to move the two-time Finals MVP if they receive a worthy package.
Does Detroit have enough in its asset bank to draw up a strong trade package for Leonard? Maybe. Nonetheless, it is a good sign the Pistons are searching for another big fish to slot alongside Cunningham.
Detroit Should Strong Consider a Big Trade; is Leonard Enough to Make a Contender?


GettyDALLAS, TEXAS – MARCH 21: Kawhi Leonard #2 of the Los Angeles Clippers celebrates with a teammate during the second half against the Dallas Mavericks at American Airlines Center on March 21, 2026 in Dallas, Texas.
Last season, the Pistons blew away expectations. Cunningham arrived as a blossoming superstar, Duren announced himself as a franchise cornerstone and Detroit showed it may just be one major piece away from claiming the Eastern Conference mantle.
Perhaps making an offseason splash is something Pistons president Trajan Langdon needs to strongly consider.
In some ways, Cunningham’s situation mirrors Anthony Edwards’ in Minnesota. Both young, rising superstars on teams that can make noise in the playoffs. The Timberwolves realized they didn’t have enough to compete, so they landed LaMelo Ball from the Charlotte Hornets.
Maybe something similar needs to happen in Detroit. Perhaps star guard or wing next to Cunningham is what it will take to elevate the Pistons from a regular season force to a playoff powerhouse.
Landing Leonard from the Clippers might raise the Pistons to that level. Although he’s 35 years old, Leonard is coming off an All-NBA season after registering a career high 27.6 points per game and doing it on an uber-efficient 51.5% shooting from the floor.
Leonard is a proven winner and multi-time champion. He may be the superstar (and veteran) Detroit needs to put itself on equal footing with the NBA champion New York Knicks.
