Idaho children in siege seek breakthrough talks
Five children holed up in a Garfield Bay house near Sandpoint faced a five day stalemate as authorities pursued first face-to-face talks. Bryce Powell, the court appointed attorney for the mother, confirmed conversations occurred but offered few details. The standoff began after JoAnn McGuckin was arrested for neglect. her son Benjamin, 15, later turned himself in. The case involves multiple siblings, a fatal illness, and a prior warning after a nearby fatal Ruby Ridge incident.
