Re: “Prairie Grove fires cop in bar scuffle”

Has FPD answered the question of why these guys weren't arrested when the Avg. Joe would have shown up in the Washington County Detention Center detainee roster? If you're a cop, you're allowed to drink and drive in Fayetteville?

Re: “Free Nate Bell”

The same one that shows it was renewed at some point yesterday. http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/resu… I have a screen shot showing it expired (before the "web guru" figured it out), if you'd like.

Re: “VIDEO: Apologetic McDaniel takes questions on affair, vows to continue race for governor”

So, how much are Garland County authorities getting (in the way of favors and/or money) to drag the murder investigation out until after the 2014 election? You know they will.

Circuit Judge Wendell Griffen, injured in a bicycle accident last week near his home, sent me an update this morning from his iPad.
UPDATED: Shoffner charged with pie-box delivery of kickbacks from securities salesman; released after hearing

The details of the federal charge against Martha Shoffner have been released in a criminal complaint from the FBI: I'll pass along as quickly as I can my notes from a reading of the complaint over the phone.
Martha Shoffner's day in court

State Treasurer Martha Shoffner will lead the news today, though Sunday provided few new details about the FBI;s somewhat unusual arrest of her Saturday afternoon for a weekend in the Pulaski County jail.
Chris Thyer: Informant in Shoffner case will eventually be identified

David Koon reports from the news conference this afternoon by U.S. Attorney Chris Thyer of the Eastern District of Arkansas, who brought the charge against state Treasurer Martha Shoffner, and Western District U.S. Attorney Conner Eldridge, who buttressed the message that the feds are looking for corruption statewide.

'A Loss of Roses' a stunner

Before last Friday night, the saddest, most "depressing" Depression-era story I had read was Horace McCoy's "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?" However, after watching The Arkansas Repertory Theatre's opening performance of William Inge's "A Loss of Roses," I can attest that this play is as rough and unflinching as that Depression-era tale, or any other.
TV producer Bryant Huddleston disinvited as Imboden Ark., high school graduation speaker because he's gay
