Parole decision looms in Scott prison term reduction
US Parole Commission weighs shortening former Illinois Attorney General William J. Scott's one year and a day sentence for income tax fraud. Scott, 55, began serving March 8 at a Pleasanton California federal prison near San Francisco. His May 27 parole hearing yielded recommendations but no final decision. If not granted, he faces a minimum 10 months with good time and work credits. Scott is in a campus-like minimum security unit housing 419 inmates on an 80 acre farm. His cell is a 10 by 7 foot concrete room with bunk bed and a small window.

Spring Floods Prompt Disasters Across Missouri Kansas
Floodwaters forced evacuations across northeastern Kansas and central Missouri as Wakenda Creek and Cross Creek swelled to record levels. The Coast Guard closed 284 miles of the Missouri River fearing wakes could undermine already saturated dikes. Mayor Ann Daniels reported Wakenda Creek water reaching doors in Carrollton. In Rossville, about 100 homes and a 63 resident nursing home were evacuated. Gov. Carlin declared a disaster in five counties as rains lingered and waters receded by nightfall amid tornado reports in Arkansas and Ohio.
