    IDAHOIDAHO WEEKLYWEEKLY BRIEFINGBRIEFING August 6, 2018 Vol XIX, No 32 www.ridenbaugh pre s s .com In this issue With the arrival of August, preliminaries begin in the fall general election campaign season. An early activity was a debate between the candidates for superintendent of public instruction; more faceoffs are expected soon. Meanwhile, smoke gathered over the skies of southern Idaho as one wildfire after another popped up. Cover picture MAGIC VALLEY WIND Giant propellers stand above a farm field west of Burley, generating increasingly substantial amounts of electric power in the region. (photo/Randy Stapilus) 2 View Building a perfect storm What would it take for Democrat Paulette Jordan to win the governorship in November over Republican Brad Little? You might inquire in response, why ask? Little is heavily favored to win, right? And yes he is; and none of what follows should be interpreted to the contrary. But likely is not the same as certainty. Just ask all those prognosticators about their 2016 presidential estimates. In a batch of conversations around southern Idaho this last week, with some well-informed people in both parties, a common perspective emerged, which might be useful to consider as the campaign season unfolds. First, the most favorable estimates of a Jordan win put it at about 10 percent: One chance in ten. Others figure the prospect at around five percent. No one went much lower than that, which means a consensus view that she has a small but not insignificant chance of winning. They gave her a better chance than other recent Democratic nominees.

The state is divided into seven judicial districts, each encompassing four to ten counties. This regional structure is designed to delegate authority to the judicial districts and to insure their participation in policy decisions while maintaining uniform, statewide rules and procedures. An administrative district judge, chosen by the other district judges in the district, performs a number of administrative duties in addition to handling a judicial case load. The administrative district judge, assisted by a trial court administrator, manages court operations in the district, assigns judges to cases, and coordinates activities of the clerks of the district courts. Final recommendations for local court budgets and facilities are made by the administrative judge, as well as personnel decisions for the district. The administrative judge also jointly supervises the deputy clerks of the district courts. The administrative judge additionally serves as chair of the district magistrates commission, a representative body of county commissioners, mayors, citizens, and private attorneys which, among other things, appoints magistrate judges to WKHLULQLWLDOWHUPVRIRI¿FH 236 IDAHO BLUE BOOK IDAHO COURTS Idaho’s court

  • Boise Man Found Guilty of First-Degree Murder in Depot Shooting Idahostatesman.Com: Apr
    Boise man found guilty of first-degree murder in Depot shooting IdahoStatesman.com: Apr. 23- Staff CORRECTION: This article originally misreported the jury’s verdict on Bahr’s weapons enhancement. A jury found a Boise man guilty of killing his ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend at the Boise Depot Sept. 23, according to court documents. Brandon Bahr, 24, got in a fight with his ex-girlfriend in September following a messy breakup. She had told him she may be pregnant, then on the 23rd, said she was no longer pregnant. Bahr engaged in a day-long argument via texting and phone calls with the woman and her new boyfriend, Zacheriah Neil Peterson, 21. They agreed to meet at the Depot that night, according to opening statements from attorneys on both sides. The charges against Brandon T. Bahr (with jury decision) • First-degree murder (guilty) • Aggravated assault with a deadly weapon (not guilty) • Grand theft (guilty) • Use of a deadly weapon in commission of a felony (not guilty) • Theft-petit (guilty) Before they met, Bahr stole an automatic handgun from his mother’s boyfriend, stole a bandanna from Wal-Mart (which he used to hide his face) and hid in tall grasses around the Depot until Peterson arrived, according to the prosecution. Peterson and two friends looked for Bahr at the depot around 8:30 p.m. When they found him, Bahr shot Peterson in the chest. On Friday, the jury found Bahr guilty of first-degree murder, grand theft and petit theft. It acquitted him of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and an enhancement for the use of a deadly weapon in a felony.
