Appeals Court throws out child abuse case over interpreter issues

The Iowa Court of Appeals upheld a dismissal against DeShawne Bird-Sell's client Marla Hansen, who argued the trial was not speedy due to a lack of sign language interpreters. Prosecutors faced scrutiny over resources and delays, while the court urged timely assistance for hearing impaired defendants in future cases. Hansen, who is deaf, was accused of spanking a child and faced possible five year prison term. a district court earlier dismissed the charge for not meeting the 90 day rule.
