MCSC is ill-conceived

Dear Editor, The pending proposal to the Mohave County Board of Supervisors to designate Mohave County a Constitutional Sanctuary County (MCSC) is not simply redundant, since we live in a nation governed by a Constitution, but also absurdly ill-conceived.

Their contention is that current restrictions regarding COVID19 violate their constitutionally guaranteed rights. I ask ’what about other’s rights to continue to live? Are these people’s right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness…

Spano charged in one-man crime wave

KINGMAN – Police Chief Rusty Cooper said authorities don’t know if drugs or mental health conditions explain what motivated a Kingman man’s bizarre crime spree on Jan. 7. The ordeal began with a 911 call at 3:08 p.m. that a man confronted and assaulted a 76-year-old woman in the parking lot of Walmart, at 3300 Stockton Hill Road. “He punched the victim in the head and face, knocking her to the ground,” Cooper said. The suspect was later identified as Robert Spano, 42. Cooper said Spano tried to take the woman’s keys from her pockets to steal her vehicle. He…

Rideout said his firm his currently screening cases to prepare them for Court once the expungement filing window opens…

New interpreter needed for sushi grill assault case

KINGMAN – Involved attorneys and the Court agree that another interpreter must be found to communicate with the man being prosecuted for assaulting co-workers with hot cooking oil at the Sakura Sushi & Grill in Kingman. Public Defender Paul Amann asserts that his client, Kien Yun Wong, 70, does not understand and is confused by legal proceedings. Amann, during a Jan. 6 status hearing in Mohave County Superior Court, said the interpreter translating English to Mandarin is ineffective because Wong instead speaks “Fukienese”, a dialect from his hometown of Fuzhou in China. “This has been a very frustrating experience, not only…
