Five Years Court and Grand Jury in Coquille Update
The circuit court and grand jury in Coquille are in session with plans to continue for a week or two. The grand jury returned two indictments against a North Bend dive keeper for gambling and liquor to minors. A $9,650 bond was noted and likely further action on the charges. The Hoffman case yielded a five year arson verdict after a quick jury decision, plus $1,610 in damages. A story recaps a friendly meal where a salesman praised “Star Brand” branding. Local school awards and a planned meeting on May 9 discuss election questions, with student ranks listed and a church service at 10 a.m. timed for Memorial Day.
