Trump Says He’s Ready for Perp Walk if Indicted Former President Trump seems to be significantly disconnected about the severity of his potential legal woes, according to reports behind closed doors at his Mar-a-Lago residence Trump has told friends and associates he welcomes the idea of being perp-walked in front of reporters and, is even debating whether he should smile for the cameras. Veuer’s Maria Mercedes Galuppo has the story.

A foundation established by the parents of a former Roane State student recently donated $5,000 in support of the community college’s Emergency Medical Services (EMS) program.
William “B.J.” Hillard and Amanda Hillard said they are honoring the memory of their son, Austin Logan Knight, through the Austin Knight Foundation. Austin was killed in a car crash in 2018, just a month after enrolling in Roane State’s EMT program.
Over the past five years, Austin’s parents have worked to incorporate their late son’s passions with their efforts in the community on behalf of the foundation, an RSCC news release said.
Austin was posthumously awarded an EMT technical certificate from Roane State and an EMT License from the Tennessee Office of EMS. The donation made by his family this month is the second gift in as many years to the Roane State EMS program. The Austin Knight Foundation also contributed $5,000 to the program last year.

Roane State’s EMS program consists of three programs: Emergency Medical Technician (EMT), Advanced Emergency Medical Technician (AEMT), and Paramedic. These programs are based at the college’s Knox County Center for Health Sciences at 132 Hayfield Road in West Knoxville.
