FARGO – Instead of coming together to debate local issues, state Republicans were oddly all simultaneously missing from a televised open forum Tuesday evening coordinated by the League of Women Voters of the Red River Valley.
The forum between districts 11 and 21 occurred at the City Commissioners meeting room, and was televised on Fargo’s cable access channel. The forum is an opportunity for constituents to ask their legislators questions and become informed about elections and…

FARGO – Brooke Lynn Crews, a one-time aspiring fiction writer, feminist, a student of psychology, spun an intricate web of lies that even she began to believe. When the truth snapped her from the daily journaling of her faked pregnancy, it was too late for her to change. She decided to steal another’s child.
She stole the child, Crews said in court, because she couldn’t stand the thought of losing her former boyfriend and co-conspirator, William Henry Hoehn, currently facing…

FARGO – Years before Savanna Lafontaine Greywind was murdered, her unborn child ripped crudely from her womb, William Henry Hoehn, accused accomplice, had savage fantasies.

“Once in a while he would try and strangle me,” McCloud,…

FARGO – Time after time, Congressman Kevin Cramer makes light of sexual misconduct allegations and of provisions in law protecting women against violence. Repeatedly, he has mocked women who do not toe the conservative line, and has threatened violence against Native women.
Most recently Cramer said on CNN and on local Jarrod Thomas radio show that the claim against Supreme Court pick Brett Kavanaugh was “absurd,” and he justified Kavanaugh’s actions approximately 30 years ago…

With the creation of “North Dakotans Against the Legalization of Recreational Marijuana (NDALTLORM),” and after Norm Robinson and Bob Wefald’s interview with HPR another question was raised: who else are the members of this coalition?

FARGO – At times, William Henry Hoehn’s conspiracy to murder trial flows like an episode from “Law & Order.” Jurors and observers are on seat edges, necks craned, listening to Hoehn’s mumbling lies and hesitant admissions of guilt during his recorded interviews with police 13 months ago.
Each morning, defense attorney Daniel James Borgen wheels a rolling tote laden with boxes, duffle bags, and notebooks into the courtroom, coughing frequently as he’s at the tail end of a…

North Dakota is set to vote on legalizing recreational marijuana this coming midterm election in November. In the last couple months leading up to the election, an opposition group, “North Dakotans Against the Legalization of Recreational Marijuana (NDATLORM),” has been formed. The group itself has very little information about itself, no platform, no website, no administrative structure, all the while having membership comprised of judges,…
