Szatanek murder trial set for Oswego County
The Baldwinsville man Steven Szatanek, 33, goes on trial in Oswego County Court Monday for the 2014 drowning death of 17 year old Anna Rose Shove off Brenna’s Beach Richland. Indicted on second degree murder and second degree manslaughter, the case follows pre trial exchanges and no plea deal. Shove’s body was found Aug 10 2014 on Lake Ontario after investigators deemed the death not an accidental drowning and noted injuries inconsistent with such a death. Szatanek admitted meeting Shove and swimming with her but denied killing her.

Scriba approves 2016 budget amid criticism over highway chief pay
Scriba passes its 2016 budget after a public hearing in which residents condemned a salary cut for the highway superintendent amid a driving while intoxicated case. The budget reflects a reduced levy and a tax rate rise despite a roughly 1.1 million PILOT payment from Exelon for Nine Mile Point. The superintendent, Michael Barry, elected earlier this month, faces unresolved charges and a salary drop from 69 000 to 50 000.
