The Larimer County Jail has plans in place to expand its facility to accommodate the increasing population of Larimer County. It is expecting to add an additional 400 to 500 beds to the jail’s current 500 beds, ensuring inmate separation is adequate for all genders, ages and behaviors inside the jail. “The proposed expansion of the jail is to meet the needs of today’s populations,” Captain Palmer, facility administrator for the Larimer County jail said. The Larimer County jail has been run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year for 35 years and it is wearing out, he said.

NATIONAL Loughlin could use ‘parenting on steroids’ as defense in scandal By Richard Winton & Hannah Fry Los Angeles Times

Lori Loughlin and her hus- band, fashion designer J. Mos- simo Giannulli, are vowing to fight charges accusing them of participating in an elaborate fraud to get their children into college. Their attorneys have not re- vealed much about their legal strategy. But as more parents file court papers, one argument is coming into focus: They were just trying to help their kids and were manipulated into criminal activity. That is far from a bulletproof defense, given the wiretapped records and pay- ments prosecutors have outlined in court papers. But some legal experts say it’s a start. “These are parents trying to help their kids. Yes, it is parenting on steroids,” said Lara Yeretsian, a criminal defense attorney who was part of the legal team for both Scott Peter- son and Michael Jackson. Loughlin and Giannulli are accused of paying $500,000 to have their two daughters admitted to the University of Southern California as crew recruits. Though neither is a rower, the parents saw being Lori Loughlin exits the John Joseph Moakley U.S. Courthouse after appearing in Federal Court to answer charges stemming from college admissions a coxswain as their daughters’ scandal on April 3, 2019 in Boston, Mass.

Organizations who need volunteers and donations often come to college campuses to get those resources. A handful turn to fraternity and sorority life to seek aid and assistance. With this connection, Delta Delta Delta seems to be doing something right with helping St. Jude Children’s Re- search Hospital. St. Jude is a pediatric center for treatment and research focusing on children’s “cata- strophic diseases” according to their website. Delta Delta Delta, or Tri Delta, is a national sorority with a chapter at Colorado State University. These two organizations have been linked since 1999, though Tri Delta has supported children’s cancer charities since the ‘70s. Throughout the year they fundraise money through events for St. Jude.
