Jury to resume deliberations in Standlee murder trial
In Linn County, the Travis Standlee first degree murder trial jury will resume deliberations today. Standlee, 44, is accused of strangling Raymond Ursino, 46, on Sept. 5, 2015, with earlier testimony describing a verbal altercation and a later video showing a fight near the First Presbyterian Church parking lot. The judge denied motions for acquittal and Standlee faces a separate first degree murder charge for another strangulation.

Forest View residents push back as Iowa City weighs relocation plan
Forest View Trailer Court residents pressed the Iowa City Council over plans to develop 55 acres off Interstate 80 and Dubuque Street that would relocate homes at Forest View for hotels offices or new housing. They seek transparency and say ownership pressured them while city officials promise fairness. The council also rejected a 72 unit Monarch LLC proposal for 14 story micro apartments at 78 Linn St citing unclear demand and parking concerns.
