A Minnesota State Patrol trooper charged with murder and manslaughter for a fatal shooting during a traffic stop last year makes his first court appearance Monday. And sentencing for the man who admits to stealing a pair of ruby slippers used in the classic movie "The Wizard of Oz" is set for today in Duluth.
