    Syracuse, N.Y. — In 2017, Rasheada Caldwell went walking through her neighborhood, knocking on doors after her son’s death when she noticed each home had one thing in common. “I’m like, whoa, nobody had cameras,” Caldwell said.

The program, View Forty-Four, will provide Ring cameras to the first 90 people who apply.

The state Commission on Judicial Conduct has never received a complaint about a judge declining to officiate a same-sex marriage. There were no reports prior to what was made public regarding Syracuse City Court Judge Felicia Pitts Davis. https://t.co/ob9xEWx543
