IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — An Iowa City woman has been accused of transferring to her own account more than $650,000 without authority from her mother’s account on the day her mother died in 2016. Records say 56-year-old Edith Hora has been charged with theft. It’s unclear whether she has an attorney. An Iowa City number listed for her rang busy during several calls Tuesday.
Relatives told police that Josefina Sexton’s will says her husband, Marion Sexton, was supposed to get 70 percent of the money left by his wife. Authorities say the transfer deprived Marion Sexton of access to the money.
The Pottawattamie County Sheriff’s Office reports a Glenwood man was arrested at around 1:40-a.m. today (Tuesday) in Council Bluffs, following an investigation into a hit-and-run accident in the area of 20104 Concord Loop. 58-year old James Ray Clark was taken into custody for Violation of Probation.

And, a woman being held in the Nebraska Correctional Center for Women, in York, Nebraska, was transported to the Pottawattamie County Jail, Monday morning. 32-year old Christina Diondra Bryant, of Sioux City, was wanted on an outstanding warrant for Violation of Probation.
