Danny Heinrich, a person of interest in the case, cooperated in the investigation, according to reports that first came from KSTP-TV. Jacob's mother, Patty Wetterling, said Saturday morning that her son's remains have been found. ?All I can confirm is that Jacob has been found and our hearts are broken. I am not responding to any media yet as I have no words,? she said in a message to KARE-TV. Authorities recovered unidentified remains this week after Danny Heinrich, who is a person of interest in the disappearance of Jacob Wetterling, agreed to cooperate and provide information, according to authorities. In a message to the St. Cloud Times, she said "we will have words at some point." Stearns County Chief Deputy Bruce Bechtold and County Attorney Janelle Kendall declined to comment Saturday.

    Minnesota - Wikipedia, the freevisited encyclopedia on 3/1/2016 Page 1 of 15 Coordinates: 46°N 94°W Minnesota From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Minnesota ( i/mɪnᵻˈsoʊtə/; locally [ˌmɪnəˈso̞ ɾə]) is a state in the Midwestern United States. State of Minnesota Minnesota was admitted as the 32nd state on May 11, 1858, created from the eastern half of the Minnesota Territory. The name comes from the Dakota word for "clear blue water".[5] Owing to its large number of lakes, the state is informally known as the "Land of 10,000 Lakes". Its official motto is L'Étoile du Nord (French: Star of the North). Minnesota is the 12th largest in area and the 21st most populous of the U.S. States; nearly 60 percent of its residents live in the Minneapolis –Saint Paul metropolitan area (known as the "Twin Cities"), the center of transportation, business, Flag Seal industry, education, and government and home to an internationally known arts community. The Nickname(s): Land of 10,000 Lakes; remainder of the state consists of western prairies now given over to intensive agriculture; North Star State; The Gopher State; The State of deciduous forests in the southeast, now partially cleared, farmed and settled; and the less populated Hockey. North Woods, used for mining, forestry, and recreation. Motto(s): L'Étoile du Nord (French: The Star of the North) Minnesota is known for its idiosyncratic social and political orientations and its high rate of civic participation and voter turnout. Until European settlement, Minnesota was inhabited by the Dakota and Ojibwe/Anishinaabe. The large majority of the original European settlers emigrated from Scandinavia and Germany, and the state remains a center of Scandinavian American and German American culture.

Noble General Counsel Federal Election Commission 999 E. Street NW Washington, D.C. 20463 Dear Mr. Noble: I am writing to request an advisory opinion on the following issue: May a government office that is authorized to sponsor nonpartisan activities to promote voter participation be permitted to provide free hyperlinks between its WEB page and the WEB page of any candidate who provides the Uniform Resource Locator (URL) to that page without violating the provisions of the federal campaign contribution laws? The Office of the Secretary of State for the State of Minnesota is authorized to sponsor or participate in nonpartisan activities that promote voter participation. See Minnesota Statutes, section 204B.27, subdivision 6. This subdivision specifically states: The secretary of state may sponsor or participate in nonpartisan activities to promote voter participation in Minnesota elections and in efforts to increase voter registration and voter turnout. March 12, 1999 Page 2 One of the activities the Office has chosen to sponsor is a WEB site that contains information about all candidate filings for federal, state and county level offices. For an example, please see www.sos.state.mn.us/elections/statewide.html. With the increasing use of the Internet and WEB sites, we anticipate that we will be requested to provide hyperlinks between the WEB page maintained by the Office and candidate WEB pages.
