Trial for MN Senator Nicole Mitchell on burglary charges delayed until after legislative session ends.

Minnesota State Senator Nicole Mitchell's trial for first-degree burglary has been delayed until after the legislative session ends on May 19, 2025. The postponement was granted to allow Mitchell to fulfill her legislative duties. Critics argue this is an abuse of her position, but supporters cite laws that protect lawmakers from trials during sessions. If convicted, Mitchell could face calls for resignation, though ethics proceedings would be on hold.
