Driver Pleads Guilty To Lower Charge In Fatal MN CrashA teenage driver who was accused of vehicular homicide in Winona County pleads guilty to a lesser charge...
Eighteen-year-old Adam Greden admits to careless driving for allegedly racing with another student from Lewiston-Altura High School last April. The second driver lost control of her pickup and crashed. She and two of the three other girls in the truck were killed. Greden was charged about six months after the accident. He'll be sentenced on the reduced charge on May 12th. Doyle To File Criminal/Civil Charges Against Political GroupA mailing campaign from the Brookfield, Wisconsin group, Jobs First Coalition, claims 94th Assembly Candidate, Steve Doyle, does not pay his property taxes and if he does, they are always late. That false claim, according to Doyle, has his campaign now in the process of filing criminal and civil charges against the group, which is headed up by former State Assembly Speaker, Scott Jensen. Jensen was convicted last year of felony misconduct in office. On hand today to verify that Doyle has in fact filed his taxes and on time was Lacrosse County Finance Director Gary Ingvalson, County Director of Zoning and Planning Jeff Blusky and former Town of Onalaska Clerk, Sue Schultz. Doyle says he's not surprised these negative attack ad's are coming out so fast in the campaign. And he has a message to the folks in the 94th.....expect more of these negative ad's to surface both on radio, in newspapers and in your mail. The election for the 94th Assembly District is May 3rd. New Fluoride System In Holmen Could Be HaltedThe fluoride fight isn't over in Holmen...even though fluoridation in the village officially began on Monday.
A special village board meeting is set for next week, to decide whether fluoridation should be halted, pending possible rule changes being considered in Washington. Public works director Robert Haines says the fluoride level being used in Holmen is already the state minimum. But two federal agencies have hinted they could mandate a lower fluoride level than what's being used in Wisconsin. |
