Iowa farmer sentenced to prison for bank, bankruptcy fraud

News

February 10th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (AP) — A Lake City farmer has been sentenced to 18 months in federal prison for committing fraud to get bank loans, crop insurance proceeds and ease a bankruptcy burden. Federal prosecutors say 36-year-old Clint Devries was sentenced Wednesday after pleading guilty in September to two counts of making false statements and one count of bankruptcy fraud.

Prosecutors say he lied from 2013 through 2015 to a bank about the amount of crops he had in storage and other things to obtain farm operating loans. He later defaulted on more than $400,000 in loans from the bank. Officials say he also lied to the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation to fraudulently obtain crop insurance proceeds, and that in 2015, he lied to a bankruptcy trustee about sales of his crops.

4 injured in Red Oak collision Saturday morning

News

February 10th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

Red Oak Police say four people were injured during a collision Saturday morning on Summit Street. Authorities say the driver of a 1993 Ford Explorer, 20-year old Benjamin Lee Thiel, of Red Oak, suffered possible broken ribs from impact to the steering wheel. The injury occurred after an apparent seat belt failure. Thiel was transported by Red Oak Rescue to the Montgomery County Memorial Hospital.

Three male children passengers in a 2007 Kia Sedona van, driven by 29-year old Nicole Ann Smith, of Red Oak, were also injured. They include a 7-year old, 3-year old and a 1-year old. The children suffered suspected minor, non-incapacitating injuries and were transported by EMS ground to MCMH. Two of the children were then flown to Omaha for further evaluation.

Nicole Smith was not injured in the collision that happened at around 11:30-a.m., Saturday. Smith and the children were properly secured in the vehicle.

Officials say Smith’s Kia was westbound going down Summit Street, while the Explorer was eastbound going up Summit. The SUV lost traction due to the road conditions and crossed the center line, into the path of the KIA. The Explorer hit the van on the front driver’s side. After the impact, the KIA swerved to the right and across Park Driveway before coming to rest in the southwest corner of the parking lot. The SUV came to rest on the road. Both vehicles were totaled in the crash.

The accident remains under investigation, with no citations issued prior to the outcome of the investigation.

Iowa State upsets No. 17 Oklahoma 88-80

Sports

February 10th, 2018 by Ric Hanson

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa State freshman Lindell Wigginton upstaged Trae Young by scoring 26 points and the Cyclones upset No. 17 Oklahoma 88-80 on Saturday, handing the Sooners their sixth consecutive road loss. Fellow rookie Cam Lard had 19 points with 17 rebounds for the Cyclones (13-11, 4-8 Big 12), who beat a ranked team at home for the third time in a span of three weeks.

Iowa State built and then blew a 17-point lead, but Donovan Jackson’s 3 with 1:55 left put it ahead 80-77. Wigginton then beat the shot clock with a long 3, and Jackson hit a pair of free throws to clinch the win.

The Cyclones ran the Sooners (16-8, 6-6) out of the building in the first half, holding Young to just one 3 in the opening 19 minutes while building a lead that stretched to 40-23. Young finished with 22 points and 11 assists, but he was just 1 of 8 on 3s with six turnovers.

The Sooners fought back behind their defense. They held Iowa State without a field goal for eight minutes and eventually tied the game at 71-all on Young’s layup with 4:55 left. Christian James also had 22 points for Oklahoma.

After losing to West Virginia at home and to the Cyclones on the road, Oklahoma might find itself out of Monday’s poll.

Mom who left kids alone to visit Germany offered plea deal

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — An Iowa mother accused of leaving her four children home alone to travel to Europe could avoid a prison sentence. The Des Moines Register reports that prosecutors have offered to drop a gun charge against 31-year-old Erin Macke and give her a deferred judgment if she pleads guilty to four counts of child endangerment.

Macke is currently charged with the four counts plus one count of making a firearm available to a person under 21. Police were called to her home in September by the children’s father, who said the kids — two age 12, one 7, one 6 — had been left alone. Police say Macke tried but failed to make child care arrangements before leaving Sept. 20 for a 10-day vacation in Germany.

A plea hearing is scheduled for Feb. 23.
