Here is the latest Iowa news from The Associated Press
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Former Iowa Governor Chet Culver has scheduled town meetings next week to talk to Iowans affected by the state’s plan to hire three private companies to run the Medicaid program. The public meetings will highlight the impact of the proposal on Iowa’s 560,000 people who rely on Medicaid.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The Iowa Supreme Court says an Emmetsburg man who pleaded guilty to soliciting a minor for sex, but later had the conviction overturned, can sue his defense attorneys for legal malpractice. In the ruling Friday, the court for the first time in Iowa declined to adopt proof of actual innocence as a prerequisite to sue one’s criminal defense attorney.
WEST DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Authorities say a high school teacher was arrested and charged with public exposure after an incident at a West Des Moines mall.

DUBUQUE, Iowa (AP) — Dubuque officials have asked for increased funding to bring a dog to sniff out bedbugs at a public library. The Telegraph Herald reports that a specially trained Labrador named Cooper has been sniffing the library monthly since bedbugs were discovered in the folds of a couch at Carnegie-Stout Public Library in October. Library officials have requested $5,400 in the budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1st.
The Exira-EHK Spartans picked up a girls and boys basketball win at Adair-Casey on Friday night.
Fans 
packed the house for a top ten match-up in the girls game and the action did not disappoint. After a slow start for both teams the game was knotted at 5 at the end of the 1st quarter. The Spartans took a brief lead but the Bombers rallied back and took a 4 point lead into the halftime locker room after Zoey Dinkla hit a shot just before time expired off a nice assist from Madie Sorensen. Adair-Casey was able to hang on to a lead of 3 points by the end of the third but much like the first time these teams met the Spartans owned the fourth quarter. The Spartans outscored the Bombers 24-8 in the final period to stay undefeated. Maggie Rasmussen led all scorers with 17 points. Sophia Peppers had 15 points, all in the second half, and Kealey Nelson had 14 for the Spartans. Miranada Plowman and Madie Sorensen each scored 11 for the Bombers. Exira-EHK improves to 19-0 and Adair-Casey falls to 17-3.
The boys game ended up carrying over the excitement from the girls game for three quarters. The Spartans raced out to a 20-8 lead at the end of the first quarter but Adair-Casey rallied to take a brief lead before Noah Pettepier ended the half with two three point buckets to put Exira-EHK up 30-26 at half. It was still a tight game after three quarters at 42-37 Spartans but much like the girls contest the Spartans took over in the fourth quarter. The Spartans outpaced the Bombers 23-12 in the fourth to pick up their 13th win on the year. The Spartans had four players finish in double figures: Dakota Rold 18, Noah Pettepier 15, Drew Buckholdt 14, and Brady Hansen 14. Connor Westergaard was the Bombers top scorer with 16 points. The Spartans are now 13-5 on the year while the Bombers dropped to 1-18.
We’ll have coverage of Exira-EHK’s next outing, a doubleheader Monday night against Boyer-Valley. Girls game at 6:00pm, Boys at 7:30pm. Catch it on air, online, or on the app. Live video will be available as well on our TV page at kjan.com
Officials with the Iowa DNR said Friday, test results from two sets of water samples taken in Elliott show the water is safe to drink. The city has lifted the bottled water advisory issued Tuesday after an electrical failure in the Montgomery County town drained the water tower.
During the advisory, the city furnished bottled water to residents and advised them to drink only bottled water because pressure losses can allow bacteria to enter the water supply pipes.
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) — The Pottawattamie County Board of Supervisors has unanimously supported a proposed monument honoring those who serve in public safety. The Daily Nonpareil reports that the site would take a small portion of county land in Council Bluffs.
Supervisor Justin Schultz says the board’s vote stipulates that it will work with Council Bluffs officials when necessary, such as transferring the deed of the impacted land and adjusting lot lines if requested. Council Bluffs resident Lloyd Marsh’s idea for the project drew financial support from two other local residents, Ron and Suzanne Mahoney.
The plaza would include four life-sized bronze sculptures of a firefighter, highway patrolman, police officer and a female deputy sheriff. Mayor Matt Walsh said he hopes the project will be completed by the end of the year.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The Iowa Supreme Court says an Emmetsburg man who pleaded guilty to soliciting a minor for sex but later had the conviction overturned can sue his defense attorneys for legal malpractice without being required to prove his innocence. In the ruling Friday the court for the first time in Iowa declined to adopt proof of actual innocence as a prerequisite to sue one’s criminal defense attorney.
The case involves Robert Barker who was convicted in 2006 after entering a plea agreement. His conviction was later overturned when a judge found Barker’s actions didn’t correspond to the charge for which he was convicted. Barker sued his attorneys for advising him to plead guilty.
The court’s ruling says Iowa won’t require defendants to prove innocence before suing defense attorneys in such cases.
