Port Huron City Council passed “The Joshua Conant Ordinance” on Monday, requiring security staff to be trained on positional asphyxiation. The move follows the tragic death of Joshua Conant, who died after an altercation with bouncers outside Roche Bar in November of ’23. Conant’s mother fought tirelessly for the rule change. The ordinance was celebrated by the community, with hopes it will prevent future deaths. Local officials, including Rep. Joe Pavlov, plan to push for a state version of the law, drawing on their own personal losses to support the cause.

Last year St. Clair County Jail held an average of 80 detainees for alleged immigration violations. While most were arrested outside the county, some were temporarily housed while awaiting hearings in Detroit. Local Sheriff Mat King explained that the detainees face charges beyond immigration violations. The jail’s involvement with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has grown since the Trump administration ramped up immigration enforcement. Despite challenges, the county earned $2.6 million in ’24 for housing detainees.
