This week on Hear Cincinnati, host Brian Niesz is joined by community reporter Lucy May, senior manager of broadcast Kennan Oliphant and senior manager of enterprise and investigative reporting Meghan Wesley to discuss Cradle Cincinnati's battle to improve infant mortality rates, the National Association of Black Journalists meeting in Cincinnati, FC Cincinnati facing new stadium struggles, a light sentence for business owner who stole $3.4 million in SNAP fraud, and more.
Later, WCPO reporter Julie O'Neill joins to discuss the bizarre case of Forrest Behne, who insists he had just one glass of wine on the night he crashed his car, but blew a .325 BAC, four times the legal limit for driving.
