Sex case question: Did Halter ask for attorney?WINONA, Minn., May 23, 2002 -- A police detective testified that a former Winona State University student accused of serial sex crimes was read his rights and initialed a document to indicate he understood. James Lanik, on the force 22 years, said he believed the arrest and interrogation of Jude Wilson Halter in Eau Claire, Wis., last year was legal. Halter's attorney has challenged the admissibility of confession and other materials as evidence against Halter. Prosecutor Chuck MacLean led Lanik through a taped interview of Halter's interrogation, questioning each time the word "lawyer" came up. Although Halter asked questions like "Did anyone call my lawyer?" and "My lawyer told me not to say this," MacLean said the fact was that Halter never specifically asked for an attorney. Jeffrey DeGree, who now represents Halter, told the judge that Halter had in effect asked for an attorney and that the officers should have stopped their interrogation right then and there. Judge Lawrence Collins asked MacLean and DeGree to submit written briefs to support their positions.

WSU science building survives Ventura vetoesST. PAUL, Minn., May 22, 2002 -- A proposed $30 million Winona State University science building will be built. The project survived line-item vetoes by Gov. Jesse Ventura, as did $1.3 million for new Southeast Tech labs. In all, Ventura vetoed almost $1 billion in proposed state construction projects -- more than one-third of the total approved by the Legislature. The governor said he couldn't justify borrowing the money for all of the projects. State universty faculty lobbyist Russ Stanton said a "golden opportunity" had bene missed, noting that interest rates are at a 40-year low.

Panelists upbeat on Winona jobs outlookWINONA, Minn., May 21, 2002 -- Although Winona unemployment is high, about 5.2 percent, it's no worse than Minnesota overall and probably has peaked, a jobs expert said at an economic summit at Winona State University. Diane Amundson, general manager at Express Personnel Services, expects a job shortage by 2005. Several panelists pointed to the booming Winona construction industry, buoyed by home construction and several major new retail stores. Amundson said wages are holding up well. First-shift entry jobs in manufacturing are averaging $9.20 to $9.33 an hour, about 50 cents more than nearby La Crosse, Wis., she said.

City planner: Collegeville will be "cozy"WINONA, Minn., May 21, 2002 -- The proposed high-density Collegeville housing development opposite Saint Mary's University could fill a niche in the community, said City Planner Mark Moeller. Empty-nesters may be attracted to the idea of mowing, gardening and maintenance provided through an association fee, Moeller said. The 36-unit development, which required rezoning because of density, would put houses in "a real closed neighborhood," he said. Single-family houses would be connected with narrow streets and sidewalks. The feel would be "cozy," he said. The development is one of several that a St. Cloud, Minn., company has proposed near numerous college campuses in the Upper Midwest. A selling point is access to college recreational and cultural events -- and cafeterias.

Legislative spat jeopardizes campus projectsST. PAUL, Minn., May 20, 2002 -- The Legislature missed its chance to head off a almost-certain vetoes of some state construction projects by Gov. Jesse Ventura in an 11th-hour committee squabble on another issue. Rep. Dave Bishop and Sen. Deanna Weiner got into a spat over an anti-terrorism project just minutes before the deadline for passing the construction bill in time to allow legislators to over-ride the governor's veto of projects. The governor, furious over the legislators refusal to back his bonding proposal for a commuter railroad project, has said he will veto many of the projects in the bonding bill. High on the governor's hit list: $10 million for the St. Cloud State Centennial project, $9.2 million to remodel the Southwest State library, and $8.4 million for a Mankato State athletic facility. Said state univerity faculty lobbyist Russ Stanton: "We are now on a deathwatch for the projects on the governor's hit list." Safe, however, are a new Winona State science building and new Southeast Tech science labs, which earlier had the governor's explicit endorsement..
