degree criminal sexual conduct, a Houston County District Court jury
found Charles R. Nierling, 33, of Des Moines, Iowa,
not guilty. According to Houston County Attorney Rick Jackson, Nierling
was found not guilty of third degree sexual conduct and the fourth
degree charge was dropped when the jury could not make a decision on
that charge.
Nierling was charged May 18, 2005 of assaulting a woman at her boyfriend’s house in Eitzen in the early morning hours of May 17.

David Earp was the “lucky” winner of the Wake up Call by the band promotion. Over the past several weeks, area businesses had a display with five community members pictures taped to milk cartons. Donations were given to the person the donor would most like to see have an early morning song played in their honor. The winner was Earp who raised over $1,200. In total the promotion raised over $2,300. The money will go towards the purchase of new band uniforms which is expected to cost the program $40,000. Photo by Elliot Kranz
