Court records clearest in county criminal history

District Court proceedings last week cleared most of the criminal calendar with three cases convicted by juries and two defendants pleading guilty leaving one case to be tried. Atty A G Anderson from Washington County faced a prohibition violation charge with a possible three months to two years. McKnight, convicted previously, faced questions on child support totaling 200 dollars cash and 17 years of payments. Nelson and Bryant faced grand larceny tied to a sheep theft. Nelson was found guilty while Bryant pled guilty, both receiving one to ten year terms, with Nelson potentially favored for leniency by the court toward a Board of Pardons review. A second related case was dismissed. Ernest Murle’s assault case was continued to next page.
