Courthouse hoax lands two men behind bars

I'm glad that we didn't get blown up yesterday.

JACKSON, Mo. - A bomb threat at the Cape Girardeau County Courthouse gives Jackson Police a very serious, but pretty easy case to solve.

"There was a threat that a man would come into the courthouse at nine this morning with a bomb in his shoe," says Jackson Police Chief James Humphreys, "Of course we take every threat seriously in this day and age."

Some quick detective work by Jackson investigators helped make not one, but two arrests. "The detectives actually recognized the voice of the caller because they deal with the individual so often, they were able to identify his voice," says Humphreys.

Prosecutors charged 23-year-old Duane Haffner and 21-year-old Leotis Allen with the Class C felony of making a terroristic threat. Further charges are on the way from federal prosecutors.

SPRING!

Well, spring is here (at least this week). For once in a month it's above 20+ degrees. Mid fifties and low sixties. Before you know it I'll be outside mowing and all the other fun outside stuff. We had snow on Saturday and Tuesday it was 63! Weird, huh?

Tunes

Tropical Depression

Well, Da Bears didn't win the Super Bowl. I was a little disappointed, especially after the TD after the kickoff. There's always next year! There weren't a lot of good commercials this year either. Just Comb-over, Class Mencia, and But he has a Bud Light.
