\n39-year-old Nicole Radebaugh were having an argument in Belfield in
\nAugust 2011 when “I just snapped.” He faces up to life in prison,
\nthough prosecutors are recommending a 30-year-sentence in exchange

\nwas allegedly attacked.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The high court says Blake Hankey had a conflict of interest,
\nbecause he represented someone accused of crimes and the person’s
\nalleged victim.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The court says it wasn’t possible for Hankey to act in the best
\ninterests of both people at the same time.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Court records say Hankey also lied to a Grand Forks County
\nprosecutor when she confronted him about the arrangement. Hankey
\ntold her he’d cleared the matter with his law partners, when he
\ndidn’t.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Supreme Court on Monday ordered a reprimand for Hankey, and
\nsaid he has a month to pay almost $7,200 in disciplinary costs.<\/p>\n

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers says it will
\nstudy two proposed changes to the Red River diversion project
\naround Fargo and neighboring Moorhead, Minn.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 These modifications include the construction of adjustable gates
\non the inlet channel and upgrading levees and floodwalls to
\nincrease the river flows through the metropolitan area.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The changes will also be reviewed by the Minnesota Department of
\nNational Resources.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The 36-mile diversion would move water from the north-flowing
\nRed River around Fargo and Moorhead, which battled major flooding
\nfor three straight years.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The White House has signed off on the $2 billion project, but it
\nstill needs approval from Congress.

\nbuild, have threatened legal action.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Until now, North Dakota’s most expensive Senate race cost $4.2
\nmillion.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Both Senate campaigns filed new Federal Election Commission
\ndisclosure reports Monday.

\n$476,000 in the last three months.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Democrat Pam Gulleson’s fundraising information for the last

\nHeidi Heitkamp says GOP rival Rick Berg hasn’t been able to budge
\nfellow Republicans to support a new farm bill.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Berg and Heitkamp debated agriculture, Medicare and energy
\nMonday. The debate was recorded for later broadcast on Prairie
\nPublic’s television and radio networks.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The current federal farm bill expired last month, and Congress
\nhasn’t been able to agree on a new one. Heitkamp says Berg has
\npromised to break the deadlock, but she says Berg hasn’t gotten it
\ndone.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Berg says he’s got assurances from House Republican leaders
\nthere will be a vote on the farm bill before year’s end.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 He says he’s done what he can to push the issue, and he says
\nit’s not unusual for long-term farm legislation to get delayed.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – An annual fall survey shows few young fish
\nin the Missouri River system in North Dakota.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Scott Gangl (GANG’-guhl) with the state Game and Fish Department
\nsays the survey catch at Lake Sakakawea was poor for most species
\nincluding walleye, especially considering 4 million were stocked
\nthis year.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Gangl says the reservoir wasn’t very productive this year
\nbecause of a rapid drop in elevation. He also says the Missouri
\nRiver from Garrison Dam to Lake Oahe (oh-AW’-hee) showed few young
\ngame fish.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 On the bright side, Game and Fish says Devils Lake once again
\nhad “exceptional” numbers of young walleye. Gangl says Devils
\nLake continues to be “a walleye factory.”<\/p>\n
