| San Andreas, CA...Yesterday the father & son allegedly bat wielding duo of Jeffrey Scott Newby (43 years old) & Mike Patrick Newby (18 years old) were arraigned on their charges in Judge Healy's courtroom. The defendants at times seemed almost unaware of the seriousness of the charges facing them. They refused council and sought to represent themselves in their upcoming attempted murder trial. Judge Healy had to eventually remove the father from the courtroom with his son so the father couldn't influence the son in a manner detrimental to his legal rights. After the father was removed the son still held to the belief that he should represent himself in court even after Judge Healy counseling him otherwise... |

Protect our Historic Resources ~By Julia G. Costello |

| Mokelumne Hill, CA...Virtually every account of Calaveras County’s assets – economic and aesthetic – places historic resources -- charming gold rush towns, rolling ranch landscapes, picturesque historic homes, mining history, and nearly 10,000 years of Native American presence -- near the top of the list. However, Calaveras County is woefully deficient in instituting programs that will help protect and enhance these vulnerable resources.
