WAUKEE, Iowa (AP) — The former chief operating officer of the Waukee school district has resolved criminal misconduct in office allegations by pleading guilty to lesser charges. Dallas County on Friday dropped felony charges against former Waukee chief operating officer Eric Rose.

Instead, Rose pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges related to his personal use of a district snowblower and his solicitation of district vendors to make donations to his son’s hockey team. The dismissed charges related to allegations that he directed staff to falsify time cards of a maintenance worker who ran an errand for him.

Rose was granted a deferred judgment, which means the charges will be dismissed after he completes one year probation, and fined $630. His attorney, Grant Woodard, said his client is satisfied with the agreement and “looks forward to putting this all behind him.”

Rose was charged in December after a state audit of the school district described a culture of questionable spending and management decisions by administrators.

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (AP) — A Cedar Rapids man who had his cousin try to hijack an Internet domain at gunpoint has been convicted in federal court. Federal prosecutors say 26-year-old Rossi Lorathio Adams II was found guilty Thursday of conspiracy to interfere with commerce by force, threats and violence.

Adams was the founder of social media company State Snaps, whose followers often used the slogan “Do It For State!” Adams tried for years to buy the domain doitforstate.com from a Cedar Rapids man, but the owner refused to sell.

Investigators say in 2017, Adams enlisted his cousin, Sherman Hopkins Jr., to break into the domain owner’s house and force him at gunpoint to transfer the domain to Adams.

Police say the man was shot in the leg as he and Hopkins struggled over the gun before the man wrestled the gun away and shot Hopkins several times. Hopkins was sentenced last year to 20 years in prison for the crime. Adams also faces up to 20 years when he’s sentenced at a later date.

The Red Oak Police Department arrested a Red Oak woman on Friday morning on a valid warrant. At 10:09am Officers spotted 24-year-old Kaylie Louise Hudson of Red Oak driving a Ford Explorer in town.

She also was unable to provide proof of insurance and was cited and the vehicle towed from the scene. Hudson was taken to the Montgomery County Jail and held on $10,000 bond.

COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa – United States Attorney Marc Krickbaum today (Friday) announced that on April 18, 2019, 59-year old Robert Joe Kinney, Sr., was sentenced in Council Bluffs United States District Court, for Possession with Intent to Distribute Methamphetamine. Kinney was sentenced to 140 months in prison to be followed by a term of supervised release of eight years.

Authorities say on three separate occasions between March 22, 2018 and June 6, 2018, Kinney sold methamphetamine to undercover law enforcement.

The case was prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa.

A man from Pottawattamie County was sentenced Thursday in U-S District Court in Council Bluffs, to more than 27-years in prison for receipt of child pornography.  The U-S Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa reports a U-S District Court Judge also ordered 37-year old Justin Stephen Martinez to serve a term of supervised release for 20-years, following his 333 month long incarceration. ,

Authorities say an investigation into Martinez’ activities began in December 2017, when an undercover law enforcement agent received notification that an IP address, identified as being used by Martinez, was sharing multiple files containing child pornography on a peer-to-peer program file sharing program for approximately one year. The investigation showed Martinez had received and distributed over a thousand images of child pornography. In addition, it was determined Martinez had sexually explicit images of his twelve year old niece and had sexual contact with her.

Martinez was previously convicted of Third Degree Sexual Abuse of a Child in 2005 in Pottawattamie County District Court. His case was investigated by the Iowa Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation, Pottawattamie County Sheriff’s Office, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The case was prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa.
