In Sarnia, police say their post naming a local teacher charged with several sexual offences was legal and not under a publication ban. The update briefly came down over the weekend while officers double-checked court rules. They later confirmed the ban only covered bail-hearing details, not the charges or investigation. The 33-year-old teacher remains in custody after being charged with sexual assault, exploitation, making child pornography, and break and enter. Police continue to investigate and urge anyone with information to come forward.

Two community groups are challenging actions by the St. Clair County Board of Commissioners. At its February 19 meeting, the Port Huron NAACP warned of legal action over the board’s plan to merge the county’s Health Officer and Medical Director jobs—moves critics say tighten control under controversial Medical Director Dr. Remington Nevin. The group delivered a Cease and Desist Notice, citing cuts to health services. Also, Blue Water Indivisible requested that Commissioner Kerry Ange be censured for an unscheduled presentation about teen health materials. The board plans to revisit the issue March 5th.
