A Marsing woman, guilty of injuring a sheriff’s deputy in 2002 will now spend at least three years in a state prison and could spend as much as fi ve years behind bars. Treasure Kester was arrested in October 2002 for aggravated battery on an offi cer after she was ac- cused of dragging then-sheriff’s deputy Don Collingwood nearly 300 feet from the window of her vehicle. Owyhee County Prosecutor Matthew Faulks said last week that Kester had two probation violations including one for burglary and one for failing to follow the rules of her probation on the original conviction. In 2003, Kester pled guilty to aggravated assault, amended by then- prosecutor Ed Yarbrough from aggravated battery. Yarbrough said at the time that Kester was sentenced to the fi ve years. Faulks said since she has two probation violations, now she will spend the original time in jail that was imposed in 2003. Off road trails Collingwood received severe bruising to his upper left arm when Signs are posted around Hemmingway Butte between Marsing and Murphy instructing off road vehicle it became caught in the driver’s window of Kester’s vehicle.

A newly enforced tail-docking rule will omit some 4-H sheep from this year’s fair and some sheep were of concern during last weekend’s fi rst weigh-in by the Owyhee County Extension offi ce. A memo received from the extension offi ce states that all market lambs are required to have a dock length of .7 inches minimum or longer. Extension Agent Scott Jensen measured each lamb’s tail length during the weigh in Saturday and found several that may not make length. He said during fi nal weigh-in, he would be able to tell if the sheep will make it or not. “There has been much debate over the acceptable minimum length of a lamb’s tail for a market livestock show,” the memo from the University said. “A recently published scientifi c study from the Journal of Animal Science concludes that short docked lambs are more prone to rectal prolapse. Local lamb buyers purchasing most of the District II resale fair lambs support having a longer tail on market lambs. Southwest Idaho sheep producers have asked for a consistent rule in order to facilitate docking practices for lambs going to different counties.” Jensen said a copy of the study is available at the extension of- fi ce.
