Arrests reported in connection with SW IA thefts

News

February 17th, 2012 by Ric Hanson

The Page County Sheriff’s Office reports two people have been arrested in connection with recent incidents of theft, while other cases remain under investigation. Sheriff Lyle Palmer says 30-year old Sara Jeanine York, of Shenandoah, and 35-year old Christopher Lee Jones, of Essex, were charged with Burglary, theft from a building, trespassing and conspiracy, in connection with a break-in and theft at Mount Arbor Nurseries, in Shenandoah on Feb. 11th.

The nurseries’ Craig Holmes reported to authorities Feb. 12th, that someone had pulled a door open and crawled through it. Footprints in the snow led to a hopper that fed into a belt conveyor, which feeds into the side of the building. Four, heavy-duty electrical cords were cut out of electrical boxes on an elevated cat walk. The cords were valued at $500.

York and Jones were also charged with burglary and theft from a building, stemming from an investigation into the Feb. 8th theft of a surveillance camera from a rural property on 190th Street, in Shenandoah.  The Sheriff’s Office used pictures from other cameras along with other information in conducting their investigation, which resulted in the execution of a search warrant at 407 1/2 West Lowell Avenue in Shenandoah.

Additional charges are possible against the pair. Jones, who was also wanted on an outstanding warrant, was being held in the Page County Jail on $12,600 bond. York’s bond was set as $5,600.

News

February 17th, 2012 by Ric Hanson

An anonymous tip to authorities in Shelby County earlier this week led to a  Harlan woman being charged with supplying alcohol to persons under the legal age. The Harlan Police Department reports 43-year old Kimberly Musich allegedly supplied booze to 20-year old Jesse Seyler, and 16-year old Shantel Ayers, both of Harlan. Seyler and Ayers were charged with Minor in Possession. All three of the individuals were cited for the offenses and released.

And, assault charges were filed last week against a Harlan man. The Harlan P-D says 53-year old Michael Garrison allegedly assaulted Garth Brammann, a custodian at an apartment complex on Durant Street. Garrison also faces a charge of criminal mischief.

Officials report also: 24-year old Joshua Koziol, of Harlan, was arrested February 9th on charges that include possession of a simulated controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was also wanted for a parole violation in Nebraska. Koziol was taken into custody following a traffic stop in Harlan. And, the staff at the Elm Crest Retirement Home reported to police a 24-inch flat screen tv was stolen. The tv had been placed outside of a resident’s room, while work on the floor was being conducted. The theft remains under investigation.

Lawmakers pressed to issue birth and death certificates for stillborns

News

February 17th, 2012 by Ric Hanson

(by O. Kay Henderson/Radio Iowa)

A southwest Iowa woman made a direct appeal to state lawmakers yesterday (Thursday) on behalf of other women whose babies have been stillborn. Mandy Ford of Clarinda supports legislation that would allow authorities to issue a birth certificate for stillborn babies. Under current law, a death certificate is issued. “No parent wants to hold the death certificate for their child, but that is the requirement in the law and that is what we must do,” Ford said. “But our other hand remains empty because we do not have a death certificate for our child.” On Thursday, Ford testified before a three-member House subcommittee, talking about the stillbirth of her third child last year.

“We will always have empty arms,” Ford said. According to the Iowa Department of Public Health, about two-hundred stillbirths are reported in Iowa each year. Thirty-two other states offer both a birth certificate and a death certificate to the parents of babies who are stillborn. State law calls it a miscarriage if the pregnancy lasted less than 20 weeks. The state representative who’s been named the bill’s manager in the House says he wants to make sure the proposal is fine-tuned and narrowly-focused so it doesn’t lead to a more wide-ranging debate about abortion.
