WCAI's Local News Roundup: Cape Wind Cancels Lease; Records Unsealed in Bourne Shooting

WCAI News Director Sean Corcoran and local journalists review the top regional news stories of the week. Sean's guests this week include Patrick Cassidy, news editor at The Cape Cod Times; Cape Cod Chronicle Editor Tim Wood; Nelson Sigelman, editor of the Martha's Vineyard Times; New Bedford Standard-Times Editorial Page Editor Jim DeArruda; and Josh Balling, assistant editor at the Nantucket Inquirer and Mirror.

Among the stories they discuss: court records unsealed this week show elaborate planning in the shooting death of a Bourne woman last month; a report finds the Cape and Islands' regions spends more than $100 million annually on addiction issues; a local group asks Gov. Baker to make safety changes at the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station; the Falmouth Board of Selectmen is weighing what to do about a town-owned turbine; and the spraying of herbicides beneath power lines will continue in 13 Cape Cod communities this spring.
