\u00a0BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) – Defense attorneys are seeking to avoid the death penalty for one of two men charged in the killing of a Montana high school teacher because they say the suspect is mentally disabled.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Twenty-four-year-old Michael Spell of Colorado faces charges including deliberate homicide for the alleged January 2012 kidnapping and murder of Sidney teacher Sherry Arnold.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Defense attorney Al Avignone said Tuesday he’s asked the court to rule Spell ineligible for execution under a 2002 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that outlawed capital punishment for the mentally disabled.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Prosecutors have until Aug. 21 to respond to the motion.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Avignone also is seeking to have Spell’s 2014 trial moved to Bozeman. He says widespread news coverage of Arnold’s killing in the booming Bakken oil patch of Montana and North Dakota has biased potential jurors.<\/p>\n

\u00a0GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – A state district judge has rejected a plea agreement reached between prosecutors and members of a rural Lakota family involved in a summer-long standoff with law enforcement in 2011. Rodney Brossart and four of his children are now scheduled for trial in November. They face felony charges stemming from the standoff that began as an investigation into missing cattle and intensified when family members ignored repeated orders to appear in court.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s U.S. senators are calling for quick action by authorities investigating the death of a 3-year-old girl on the Spirit Lake Reservation.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The FBI has called the death “mysterious” but hasn’t released details, citing the ongoing investigation.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sen. Heidi Heitkamp\u00a0says \u00a0she’s deeply concerned another child might have fallen victim to a child protection system on the reservation that she says is clearly broken. An aide for Sen. John Hoeven says the death is “another serious and sad event” that demands quick action by authorities.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The effectiveness of child protection services on the reservation has been the subject of debate for more than a year. The BIA took over they system last fall following criticism that the tribe had failed to protect vulnerable children.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0 State Budget Director Pam Sharp presented figures to legislators Tuesday. Sharp reported that revenue for the current biennium totaled $4.95 billion through May. That’s up 48 percent from the forecast released by the Office of Management and Budget in April 2011.

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sharp says the difference in numbers was based on nearly three-year-old numbers. She says growth in the past three years has been “phenomenal.”
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Some lawmakers expressed frustration that the projected and actual numbers were so different.
\n\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota Secretary of State Al Jaeger has approved petitions for a proposed ballot measure on parental rights.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 That means advocates of a proposed law giving both parents equal rights and decision-making responsibilities in child custody cases can begin collecting signatures.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Proponents must collect 13,452 signatures by March 12, 2014, to get the measure on the June 2014 primary election ballot. They have until June 18, 2014, to get the measure on the November 2014 general election ballot.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Many supporters of the initiated measure are from Walsh County. Voters there passed a similar law last November but state Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem (STEHN’-juhm) has challenged the local initiative, saying it usurps state authority.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 College President Doug Darling\u00a0says \u00a0the turbine has been the missing piece from the school’s wind energy program that started five years ago.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The project cost about $7.2 million. The turbine will be used for training and also to provide electricity for the campus.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The school has been averaging about 20 freshmen in its one-year wind energy technician certificate program. Darling says about half of the students stay to get a two-year certificate.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Williams County Planning and Zoning Commission is recommending that the county no longer issue permits for new temporary housing units, or allow current facilities to expand or increase the number of beds.
\n\u00a0
\nCounty officials believe the man camps are hurting developers in the region and stunting the growth of communities.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Commission Chairman Tate Cymbaluk says the camps will never completely go away, but the county is trying to phase out smaller camps that are placed around existing businesses.<\/p>\n
