In this newscast:
- Juneau and outgoing police Lt. Kris Sell wrap up the first Year of Kindness,
- Alaska’s justice system transitions to a new bail system that’s not based on cash,
- the family of a woman in a wheelchair who died from an escalator injury is suing Alaska Airlines, and
- locals ring in the new year with a mass dip into Auke Rec.
Correction: The story on changes to Alaska’s bail system overstated that cash bail had been eliminated entirely as a potential condition of release. Cash bail will not be used in most cases.
