Preliminary trial proves positive for prosecution
Logan, Utah- Two individuals were arrested and charged today in the Cache County 1st Superior Court with 2 mistimeaner charges, breaking and entering, and one charge of felon burglary.
Sheriff Dept. Geoffrey Hasty said, "Seems like a pretty simple cut and dry case to me. We certainly have the right people in this case." Hasty was the officer who responded to an early call and was the first officer on the scene of the 1600 East and 900 North break in. Judge Alan Mayfield agreed to proceed with the trial.
District Attorney Noel Mayfield, no relation to Judge Mayfield, said, "These two individuals did not have any personal vendetta, just for monetary gain." The two individuals convicted of these crimes are James Michaels, 35, and a minor. "We are moving forward as if they will both be tried as adults," said Mayfield.
Robbie Cochran, defense attorney said, "My clients are innocent."

Lee you did great. There were a couple typos due to the short period of time allotted to write the story, but it was good! The ending line was a little random, and I don't think it's a "tie back" sentence or whatever it's called, but I'm not even sure how to do those yet. So well done!
Lee,
I thought you did really good considering the time limit. I agree with Lauren about the Tie Back sentence, and the typos. However, I really liked the quotes you used. Good work.
Hey Lee, what is up with the typos ese? Your better than that, just remember that no matter what, overall we still think your a good journalist. We just all need to be more careful! I have problems with typos normally more major, but it helps when I quickly read it outloud ....
Keep on truckin.
I liked the flow of the story but I felt that it ended too soon, maybe because of the deadline? Try to get more than just a one sentence closing paragraph...
Lee,
Great job on this. I like all the info you laid out. I would've liked to know what building exactly they were breaking and entering, and not just the street address. I also feel the last paragraph feels a bit sparse. But You had good quotes, and key characters that gave them and that is huge!
