Prosecution rests in Maxwell murder trial
The Rosalie Maxwell murder case rested after a cellmate testified Maxwell confessed involvement in the Hilda Krause killing. Monika Johnson said Maxwell and Frank LaPena hired Gerald Weakland for the crime, planned as a robbery, with Krause as a witness. Johnson described Maxwell's anger at Krause’s death and potential motives tied to wealth.

Earhart Clears Hurdle in Nevada GOP Primary Race
Walden Earhart of Carson City remains eligible to run for Congress after the Nevada Attorney General’s Office ruled that his party switch earlier this year did not violate state law. Earhart, a CPA, briefly moved from Republican to nonpartisan then back to GOP before filing. Primary registration ends August 14, and Earhart faces Cart Anthony of Las Vegas in the GOP contest.

Layoffs Upheld In Reno Police Disciplinary Ruling
Reno officials uphold suspensions of four officers after a beer drinking incident and a gun firing case. Police Chief James Parker says the suspensions are tougher than court penalties and that only one officer faced a potential $25 fine. Johnson defends civil service as fair, while some officers stress they live by a stricter code than civilians.

Las Vegas Eyes Plastic Industries Convention Push
The Las Vegas Advertising Committee approved a $10,000 campaign to lure the Society of Plastic Industries Convention to Las Vegas for 1982 and 1985. Bob Schumack said the event could bring 44,000 attendees and require 328,000 square feet of space. Len Hornsby noted the new building might still be too small.
