Kayleen Stallman, 24 To Life, Lifetime The new Lifetime docu-series 24 To Life follows eight people who have been convicted of crimes on their last day before reporting to prison. Thirty-year-old Kayleen (nee Leedahl) Stallman is one of the eight. For nearly four months, the young mother from Storm Lake, Iowa, used a doctor’s information and pretended to be a nurse in order to get prescription drugs (Norco, Ambien, Levaquin, Zofran, Lortab and Valium) from a pharmacy. Stallman pleaded guilty to three counts of felony and five misdemeanor counts of “obtaining or attempting to obtain a prescription drug by deceit.” In April 2015, she was sentenced to 10 years in prison. 24 To Life will premiere on Lifetime on April 12 at 10pm. A burglary suspect was found unconscious at the Jones County Jail last month and later pronounced dead. Tana Lekin, 41, of Baxter, Ark., died alone in her cell by asphyxiation using an article of clothing, according to a news release. Jones County Sheriff’s office staff found Lekin unconscious at about 10:30 a.m. March 21 while conducting routine cell checks, the news release stated. Medics from the Anamosa ambulance service attempted to resuscitate her, but she was later pronounced dead. Lekin was arrested earlier that morning on charges of second-degree burglary, possession of burglar’s tools, impersonating an officer, interference with official acts, fifth-degree criminal mischief and public intoxication. Her body was transported to the Iowa State Medical Examiner’s Office in Ankeny for the autopsy, which was conducted on Sunday. Toxicology reports are still pending for several more weeks. The Iowa Department of Criminal Investigation is conducting an independent investigation which is ongoing. NEW SHARON Backloader catches fire in fertilizer plant A backloader caught fire inside a New Sharon fertilizer plant, though the blaze was quickly contained. A Mahaska County Sheriff’s deputy confirmed that New Sharon firefighters were sent to the Cargill Fertilizer Plant around 9:30 a.m. Wednesday. The fire was contained within 10 minutes of the initial report, the deputy said. A call to the New Sharon Fire Department was not returned. WEST UNION Sanity hearing set in slaying at care facility Another sanity hearing has been scheduled for a man accused of fatally beating another resident at a residential care facility in Fayette in 2012. The Waterloo-Cedar Falls Courier reports that the attorney for Matthew Braun says Braun is psychotic and unfit for trial. Authorities say Braun killed 57-year-old Kris Simpson in September 2012, when both were living at the Prairie View Residential Care Facility. Braun pleaded not guilty to a murder charge. Fayette County District Court delayed proceedings as Braun’s first attorney disputed Braun’s fitness for trial. A judge ruled in September 2013 that Braun was competent. Various trial dates have been delayed since, and Braun’s current attorney, Matthew Hoffey, has obtained another mental examination that concludes Braun is mentally ill. The sanity hearing is scheduled for April 13. IOWA CITY Cedar Rapids-based company plans new jobs A Cedar Rapids-based company says it will be creating more than 300 new jobs in Iowa City and Cedar Rapids. Thomas L.

The company says that as a result of that expansion and a new client, it will nearly double its size this year, requiring the company to open a new operation. Cardella says it will employ more than 900 call center workers in the Iowa City and Cedar Rapids area as a result of the expansion.

The Sioux City Journal reports that Kayleen Stallman, formerly Kayleen Leedahl, was sentenced on Monday to 10 years in prison. She’d pleaded guilty to three counts of felony obtaining or attempting to obtain a prescription drug by deceit. She also pleaded guilty to five misdemeanor counts of the same charge.

SIOUX CITY Home destroyed in grass fire Authorities say a Sioux City home that contained an exotic bird store was destroyed in an afternoon grass fire. The Sioux City Fire Rescue department says five adults lived in the residence and that only the homeowner was there when the structure caught fire Tuesday. The homeowner escaped safely, and no other injuries were reported. The Hinton fire chief says he doesn’t have details about the birds but says the owners gave authorities permission to take them to an area pet shelter. The Sioux City Journal reports the grass fire started on the Woodbury County line and spread north into Plymouth County. Firefighters worked for several hours to extinguish the blaze. It wasn’t immediately clear what caused the fire. — From Register staff and wire reports 1 2 3 4 5 7 6 8 9 10 11 CITY NAME CITY NAME CITY NAME CITY NAME CITY NAME CITY NAME CITY NAME CITY NAME CITY NAME CITY NAME |
