News

May 19th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

New trial set for convicted western IA softball coach

News

May 19th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

A new trial date has been set for a western Iowa youth softball coach who was convicted in March on four counts of sexual abuse. The Daily NonPareil says 47-year old John Osborn, of Council Bluffs, will stand trial for a second time because of new evidence presented by his defense team related to charges on four counts of third-degree sexual abuse. The trial is scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m. on Aug. 4th.

Fourth District Court Judge Richard Davidson had found Osborn guilty of the charges on March 26th in connection to alleged sexual conduct with a 14-year-old girl last summer. At the time, Davidson found that the state had proved Osborn and the girl engaged in sex acts on the night of July 16 into July 17th, 2014.

The 14-year-old testified that the sexual encounter occurred sometime that night around 11 p.m. to midnight, while Osborn’s daughter slept in the family’s living room. In his verdict, Davidson said a “window of opportunity” for the acts opened from 11:05 to 11:35 p.m. At trial, Osborn told the court he went to bed at 11 p.m. and didn’t get up until the next morning. Osborn’s daughter testified that she was awake throughout the night until about 3 a.m.

Defense attorney Jordan Glaser filed a motion for a new trial or judgement of acquittal, noting new evidence that revealed the daughter had texted with a friend, with messages sent in numerous intervals spanning from 10:47 p.m. to 11:31-p.m. Davidson granted a new trial because of the that evidence.

Planting stays ahead of schedule despite weather delays

Ag/Outdoor, News

May 19th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

Weather kept farmers out of the fields much of last week, but the latest crop report shows planting is still on schedule. The report shows 92-percent of the corn has been planted, which is six days ahead of last year and five days ahead of the five-year average. Northwest Iowa stayed ahead of the pace — with 98-percent of the corn planting there complete. Southwest Iowa lags behind the state average with just 75-percent of the corn crop in. Sixty-three-percent of the corn has emerged, which is one week ahead of last year and five days ahead of normal. Soybean planting crossed the halfway point at 51-percent complete — three-days days ahead of last year and two days ahead of the average.
