Apr. 8—NEW ULM — A high homeless woman allegedly assaulted two Brown County law enforcement officers as they took her to detox.

Bailey Renee Skelley, 20, was charged with felony and gross misdemeanor counts of assaulting police and misdemeanor obstructing the legal process Wednesday in Brown County District Court.

Deputies found Skelly sitting in the fetal position in a pickup with a broken axle Monday evening south of New Ulm. She claimed her name was Paul Revere, screamed at sheriff's deputies and police officers and appeared to be under the influence of a narcotic, according to a court complaint.

She was combative as she was taken to a squad car and allegedly kicked a deputy in the groin.

She continued to be combative after she arrived at detox and allegedly bit an officer's arm.

She then was taken to the New Ulm Medical Center.

Australia’s vaccine rollout was boosted by a shipment from Britain that was kept quiet to avoid controversy, according to reports in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age. Matt Hancock, the Health Secretary, said last month that vaccine shortages in Britain mean there will be no more first appointments for jabs booked in April amid growing chaos with supplies. But the newspapers claim that 717,000 doses were sent to Australia after being manufactured in the UK rather than Europe, as was widely believed. Australia has entered the vaccine row with the European Union in recent weeks after the bloc placed tough export controls on jabs. Follow the latest updates below.

  • Ghislaine Maxwell ordered to clean her 'very dirty and smelly' prison cell

    Prosecutors have accused Ghislaine Maxwell of allowing her prison cell to become "dirty and smelly" by not cleaning it and regularly failing to flush her toilet. In a lengthy letter to a judge they rejected allegations from Ms Maxwell's lawyers that her conditions were "fitting for Hannibal Lecter". They also disputed suggestions the former socialite had lost 15 pounds, and some of her hair. A claim that she had been physically abused during a pat-down search had been investigated and was "unfounded", they added. Audrey Strauss, a New York prosecutor, wrote: "Staff directed the defendant to clean her cell because it had become very dirty. "Among other things, staff noted that the defendant frequently did not flush her toilet after using it, which caused the cell to smell. In addition, the defendant had not cleaned her cell in some time." Ms Maxwell, 59, has pleaded not guilty to sex trafficking charges and denies grooming girls for sex with Jeffrey Epstein.
