Health news today spans trauma, accountability and the fragility of recovery. In Minnesota, Vance Boelter was sentenced to two consecutive life terms plus 40 years for the politically motivated killings of former House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, and the shootings of Senator John Hoffman and his wife, bringing a measure of legal finality to an attack whose emotional damage was laid bare in court. In Scotland, the death of police officer Alan Greer has exposed a deeply troubling investigation into alleged sexual offences and attempted murder involving multiple women over more than a decade. Elsewhere, former Coronation Street actor Tracy Shaw shared a raw update on her breast cancer treatment, saying chemotherapy has not shrunk tumours enough for surgery, though she remains hopeful. And in Adelaide, an accidental insect repellent release at Flinders Medical Centre left 11 staff unwell and briefly disrupted emergency services.
