Last year's wildly successful benefit for the children of slain former Dearborn Schools business manager Robert Cipriano drew more than 2,000 people to the Farmington YMCA.
A 5k fun run and walk that last year raised more than $60,000 for the children of Robert Cipriano, killed in a brutal attack on his family, returns June 7 to the Farmington Family YMCA. The inaugural Cipriano Classic far exceeded organizers' expectations, drawing more than 2,200 participants. "We were truly astounded by last year's participation. The outpouring of support from the Farmington community and beyond exceeded all expectations," event co-chairwoman Jenny Birmelin said.

Mitchell Young's defense attorney asked the court to throw out a statement made hours after the April attack on the Cipriano family.
A request by Mitchell Young's attorney to throw out a statement Young made while in the hospital hours after the April attack on the Cipriano family was denied in circuit court today. Young, 21, and friend Tucker Cipriano, 19, face felony charges related to the April 16 attack in the Cipriano home, which resulted in the death of Robert Cipriano, Tucker's father, and severe injuries to his mother, Rose, and brother, Salvatore. Defense attorney Michael McCarthy asked the court to suppress Young's statement, arguing that he was in the hospital with an injured jaw, and it's possible Young had a small seizure before talking to the police. McCarthy also said police did not record the interview. Oakland County Circuit Court Judge Shalina Kumar …
