School district paid $40,00 to settle student sex lawsuit

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — New court documents show that Sioux City Community School District has paid $40,000 to settle a lawsuit brought by the mother of a student sexually exploited by former educational specialist. The school board earlier this month approved a $20,000 settlement agreement. The Sioux City Journal reports that documents filed Thursday show the district’s insurance carrier will pay another $20,000. The insurance portion was not earlier disclosed by the district.

Superintendent Paul Gausman says the district’s share of the settlement will be paid from a taxpayer-funded budget section used to pay insurance premiums and legal settlements. Police say 30-year-old Erick Deleon had a sexual relationship with a 16-year-old student. He was sentenced to three years’ probation and a suspended five-year sentence.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Third baseman Matt Carpenter has been activated from the paternity list by the St. Louis Cardinals. Carpenter missed two games after being placed on the paternity list Thursday. His wife gave birth to the couple’s first child, a girl, on Wednesday. Carpenter leads the Cardinals with nine home runs and 32 RBIs.

To make room for Carpenter on the 25-man roster, St. Louis designated infielder Ruben Tejada for assignment on Saturday. Tejada was batting .176 over 23 games with no homers and three RBIs.

Police seek man accused of attacking woman with frozen brats

News

May 28th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Des Moines police are looking for a man they say knocked out his father’s girlfriend with a package of frozen bratwurst. Police tell the Des Moines Register that officers were called to a hospital, where the 50-year-old woman was receiving staples to close a gash on the back of her head.

The woman told police that she kicked her boyfriend’s 44-year-old son out of their home around 2 p.m. Thursday. As he was preparing to leave, she said, she tossed a package of frozen brats belonging to the son into the yard. She says when she turned to walk back inside, the man hurled the sausages at the back of her head, knocking her unconscious.

An arrest warrant charging the man with assault has been issued.

May 28th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Joel Booker had three hits, including a two-run double, and Robert Neustrom added three hits as Iowa beat Maryland 11-0 to advance to the Big Ten title game. Shane Ritter and Nick Gallagher combined to toss nine shutout innings for the eighth-seeded Hawkeyes (30-25), who are now just one win away from their first league tournament championship.

A pair of singles put Iowa ahead 3-0 in the fourth inning. Booker’s double made it 7-0, and he then scored on Austin Guzzo’s single. The Hawkeyes tacked on three more runs in the ninth inning. Nick Cieri had two hits for Maryland (30-27), which didn’t record an extra-base hit. Hunter Parson (2-3) took the loss for the Terrapins.

Iowa woman ordered to pay restitution to Nebraska contractor

News

May 28th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

PAPILLION, Neb. (AP) — A Des Moines woman convicted for smashing windows at a Nebraska defense contractor’s building has been ordered to pay more than $4,000 for the damage. The Omaha World-Herald reports that Sarpy County District Judge Patricia Lamberty ordered 34-year-old Jessica Reznicek to pay $4,126. She was also sentenced to time already served.

At her trial earlier this month, a Bellevue police officer testified that he found Reznicek near a baseball bat outside the Bellevue offices of Northrop Grumman on Dec. 27 and said Reznicek told him she used it to smash windows in an attempt to get documents. Reznicek testified her actions were because Northrop Grumman had weapons contracts with the U.S. government.

Reznicek’s request for return of the bat, sledgehammer and camera used in the vandalism was denied.
