FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A state district court judge in Jamestown, arrested for D-U-I in Fargo, pleaded guilty to the charge.
On Friday, Judge Cherie Clark entered a guilty plea on her behalf to a misdemeanor DUI charge in Fargo Municipal Court. Clark did not appear in court. The judge was given a suspended 30-day jail sentence, $650 fine and ordered to complete a chemical dependency evaluation.
In a statement she issued through her attorney, Cherie Clark, 52, said, as an elected official, she is expected to set a positive example and she failed to do so. She said, “I accept full responsibility for my actions. I extend my sincere apologies to the voters of my district, to my family and colleagues, and to the entire community.” She said she will work to restore the diminished trust and confidence resulting from her actions.
Clark was arrested late last Saturday night, September 11, 2021, after she ran into two parked cars on North Broadway. Officers conducted standard field sobriety tests and a breath test before Clark was arrested. Her breathalyzer test was point-oh-nine-four, which is above the legal level of point-oh-eight.
Clark is a judge in the south-central judicial district.
Prior to becoming a judge, Clark was an assistant Cass County State’s Attorney for 11 years.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — North Dakota will help settle dozens of Afghan refugees who will begin arriving later this month. The state Department of Human Services said Friday it has been notified by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services that North Dakota will receive 49 evacuees through the federal Afghan Placement and Assistance program. The 49 Afghans are part of the 37,000 evacuees who will be resettled in 200 communities in the U.S. through the placement program. The majority of the 49 Afghans are expected to settle in Fargo. Eight military bases in the U.S. have been temporarily housing the refugees who fled after the Taliban toppled Afghanistan’s U.S.-backed government on Aug. 15.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Dozens of North Dakota National Guard members are resuming support for the state’s coronavirus pandemic response, military officials said. The Guard announced Friday that about 50 of its members are assisting the state Health Department with contact tracing and about 15 others are helping at the state laboratory in Bismarck. The group is expected to remain on active duty until the end of the year. The Guard’s COVID-19 duty began in March 2020 and last November surpassed the record personnel days worked set during 2011 flooding. The Guard has worked more than 121,400 personnel days of COVID-19 support duty, which is said is the largest and longest state mobilization in history.
MANDAN, N.D. (AP) — A judge has granted a new trial to Mandan Lyft driver whose 2019 conviction for raping a customer was upheld by the North Dakota Supreme Court. South Central District Judge Bobbi Weiler says Corey Wickham’s constitutional rights were violated when his defense attorney failed to object to police testimony that allegedly impacted the jury’s decision. Wickham was working as a Lyft driver in August 2018 when he was accused of raping a woman after driving her home. A jury convicted him of two sexual assault charges and he was sentenced to 20 years in prison. Wickham’s attorney, Lloyd Suhr, argued that a Bismarck police detective’s testimony about Wickham’s request for an attorney was an improper comment that should have drawn an objection from defense counsel.
(AP) North Dakota regulators say the state has officially lost its status as the nation’s second-biggest oil producer to New Mexico. North Dakota produced just over 1 million barrels of oil per day in July, the most recent month for which data is available. The July production marks 5% drop from June. Texas continues to lead the nation in oil production. North Dakota ranked second, behind Texas, in oil production for nine years. North Dakota and New Mexico had been neck and neck for several months. New Mexico had 82 rigs drilling Friday, while North Dakota had 27.
GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) — The Grand Forks Air Force Base has been selected for a military satellite mission. North Dakota Republican Senators John Hoeven and Kevin Cramer said the base will be home to a Space Networking Center, which is part of the Pentagon’s Space Development Agency’s new low-Earth orbit mission. NASA defines low-Earth orbit as having an altitude of 1,200 miles (2,000 kilometers) or less. Hoeven says the mission serves as the backbone for all U.S. military communications. Hoeven’s office says a military installation in Alabama also was selected as a center for the mission.

Jamestown 32 Hastings College 28
HASTINGS, Neb. (UJ)— The University of Jamestown football team scored 22 points in the final 5:36 Saturday afternoon, finishing off one of the most memorable comebacks in recent memory in a 32-28 win over Hastings College.
Trailing 28-10, Jamestown forced Hastings to punt from their own 31-yard line. Ethan Helton (FR/Wildomar, Calif.) got through the line and blocked Jason Bachle’s kick, and the Jimmies took over at the Hastings 18.
After a holding penalty pushed UJ back to the 28-yard line, Cade Torgerson (JR/Billings, Mont.) found Micah Madyun (FR/Ramsey, Minn.) for a 10-yard gain. On the next play, Torgerson and Madyun connected again for an 18-yard touchdown pass, and the Izaak Myles (JR/Apple Valley, Calif.) extra point made it 28-17 with 4:46 left.
Myles attemped an onside kick, but the Broncos recovered at their own 48. Jamestown was forced to use their final two timeouts during the drive, but the defense held up to make Hastings have to punt. A personal foul on the return gave the Jimmies the ball at their own 26-yard line. Torgerson hit Steve Justice (SO/Henderson, Nev.) for a 17-yard gain to get up to the 43, then one play later, Javon Bowie-Monteiro (JR/Sacramento, Calif.) caught a Torgerson pass and took it 57 yards to the end zone. The two-point conversion was good as Torgerson found Marcus Giles (JR/Coon Rapids, Minn.) to make it 28-25 with 3:16 remaining.
Another onside kick by Myles was caught by Hastings at the Jimmie 45-yard line. One more three-and-out caused another Bronco punt, and with 56 seconds to play and no timeouts, Jamestown had the ball at the 20 yard line.
Torgerson found an open Madyun on an in route, and Madyun went 80 yards for the go-ahead score. The Myles extra point gave UJ a 32-28 lead with 42 seconds left.
Paul Vandal (SO/Jamestown, N.D.) had two sacks of Hastings quarterback John Zamora on the final drive to help seal the victory.
It was a career day for Madyun, with nine catches for 217 yards and two touchdowns. The nine receptions was one off of the Jimmie single-game record of 10. Torgerson threw a career-best four touchdowns and threw for 342 yards, one away from tying his 343 yards against Mount Marty.
Aaron Mack (SO/Jamestown, N.D.) led the defense with 12 total tackles, followed by Brooks Canfield (SO/Tempe, Ariz.) with seven. Vandal had three of the Jimmies’ four sacks on the afternoon, and Hershell Jefferson (FR/Pensacola, Fla.) intercepted his second pass of the year.

In world and national news…
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate’s nonpartisan parliamentarian says Democrats can’t use their $3.5 trillion package bolstering social and climate programs to give millions of immigrants a chance to become citizens. The decision by the parliamentarian, Elizabeth MacDonough, deals a blow to what was Democrats’ clearest pathway in years to attaining that long-sought goal. And it’s a disheartening setback for President Joe Biden, congressional Democrats and their allies in the pro-immigration and progressive communities. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer says Senate Democrats are disappointed with the decision but have prepared alternate proposals.
(AP) Pressure is building on world leaders to increase their efforts to fight global warming. It’s coming to a boil this week at the United Nations. U.N. officials are corralling 35 to 40 world leaders behind closed doors to coax them to do more. There’s a deadline in just six weeks. That’s the big international climate conference in Scotland. And U.N. officials say they worry it might fail. This comes after President Joe Biden delivered them the same message last week. This summer has seen a drumbeat of devastating wildfires, floods, heat waves and hurricanes.
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden goes before the United Nations this week to address the coronavirus pandemic, climate change and human rights abuses. He’s eager to make a pitch for greater global partnership at a time when allies are becoming increasingly skeptical about how much U.S. foreign policy really has changed since Donald Trump left the White House. Biden will address the U.N. General Assembly on Tuesday, hold a virtual COVID-19 summit on Wednesday, and meet with Pacific allies at the White House on Friday. Amid all the diplomacy, allies will be conducting a quiet assessment of Biden, asking if he’s lived up to his campaign promise to be a better partner than Trump.
(AP) The extremist Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for a series of deadly bombings targeting Taliban vehicles in eastern Afghanistan. The claim was published late Sunday on the militant group’s media arm, the Aamaq news agency. It signals a growing threat to the Taliban by their long-time rivals. At least eight people, including several Taliban fighters, were killed in the attacks on Sunday and Saturday in the provincial city of Jalalabad, an IS stronghold. The Taliban seized control of Afghanistan in a blitz campaign last month, overrunning the capital of Kabul while U.S. and NATO were in the final phase of withdrawing their troops.
