DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A divided Iowa Supreme Court says juvenile offenders must be resentenced if they were convicted in the state as adults and awarded mandatory minimum sentences. State officials say yesterday’s ruling means more than 100 people face resentencing for crimes including robbery, murder, kidnapping and sexual abuse. The court ruled that required minimum sentences for juveniles are unconstitutional.
ROCK ISLAND, Ill. (AP) — Murder charges have been filed in Illinois against the former boyfriend of an Iowa woman whose body was found in a Minnesota field. Timothy McVay is accused in the death of 29-year-old Carrie Olson. She was reported missing after failing to show up at her Davenport job last December. McVay was arrested yesterday after a joint investigation by police in Iowa, Illinois and Minnesota.
MASON CITY, Iowa (AP) — The city assessor for Mason City has been accused of assault following a disturbance at a home. Police say 38-year-old Danielle Naumann was arrested yesterday morning and faces a charge of serious domestic assault. Naumann has been the city assessor since November 2012.
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) — A conservation official says a recreation trail between Council Bluffs and Neola could be ready by 2017. Mark Shoemaker, executive director of Pottawattamie County’s conservation board, says design work will begin this year and construction for the trail will start next year. The trail will eventually stretch 16 miles.

ST. LOUIS (AP) – St. Louis Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright is taking the blame for the flap that ensued after he said he served up pitches to Derek Jeter during the All-Star game. The 12-game winner spent part of Friday explaining his comments after the retiring Yankees shortstop doubled off him in the first inning Tuesday. Wainwright said he made a poor choice of words and accepted responsibility for the resulting furor he says was fueled by the “Twitter-verse.”
Cardinals manager Mike Matheny thought Wainwright might be more guarded in the future, but the right-hander says he doesn’t plan on changing. Wainwright is getting extra time off after the break, and is skipping the Dodgers’ series this weekend. He is likely to pitch Tuesday against Tampa Bay.
He entered Friday second in the National League with 138 innings, first with a 1.83 ERA, and tied for the lead in wins.
Tony Stewart was back in a sprint car on Friday night, the same series he raced in when he broke two bones in his right leg. It was unknown if this is Stewart’s first sprint car race this season because he didn’t announce when he’d compete. Stewart is available because the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series is off this weekend.
Stewart’s runs were posted on Facebook and Twitter. Dirt track star Dustin Daggett tweeted a photo of Stewart’s No. 14 car at Tri-City Motor Speedway in Auburn, Michigan. Daggett also tweeted, “Raced hard in heat against Tony Stewart! But we got him, now for the Feature!”
Stewart crashed last year at Southern Iowa Speedway in Oskaloosa, where he flipped his 360 winged sprint car while leading with five laps remaining in the 30-lap feature. He missed the final 15 Cup races last year after breaking his leg in two places.
ST. LOUIS (AP) – Matt Holliday homered and doubled with three RBIs, and Lance Lynn won his third straight start for the St. Louis Cardinals in a 3-2 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday night.
Kolten Wong had two hits and scored on both of Holliday’s RBI hits for the Cardinals against the team they beat in the NLCS last fall. They have won six of eight and remained a game behind the Brewers for the NL Central lead.
A.J. Ellis had an RBI double for the Dodgers, battling the Giants for the NL West lead. They remained offensively challenged coming out of the All-Star break, totaling 10 runs the last six games. Holliday’s seventh homer, estimated at 435 feet to straightaway center, came off Dan Haren (8-7).
Lynn (11-6) gave up two runs on four hits in six-plus innings.
SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) – The Iowa Supreme Court has potentially given the Argosy riverboat casino in Sioux City more time to stay open. The high court on Friday granted an emergency stay of a district court order requiring the casino to close July 22. Groups in support of the closure have until Monday to file a resistance.
The Sioux City Journal reports the stay will be in effect while the state Supreme Court considers whether to hear Argosy’s appeal of the district court’s order to close. It’s unclear how much more time the stay gives the casino. Karen Bailey, a spokeswoman for Argosy parent Penn National Gaming Co., says she’s pleased.
In April, the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission ordered the riverboat casino to close because it doesn’t meet state gaming license requirements.
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) – A conservation official says a recreation trail between Council Bluffs and nearby Neola could be ready by 2017. Mark Shoemaker, executive director of Pottawattamie County’s conservation board, says design work will begin this year and construction will start next year for a trail between Council Bluffs and Weston. The Council Bluffs Nonpareil reports that work will expand to Underwood in 2016 and Neola in 2017, which is a stretch of 16 miles.
A $1.1 million grant from the Iowa West Foundation was recently announced for the design and construction of the 10-foot-wide concrete trail that would be parallel to a county road. It will require a match that county officials are already trying to fill.
