First, a major announcement expected out of Harrisburg at 1 p.m. regarding the grand jury probe of Mount Airy Casino Resort owner Louis DeNaples. Here’s all the background. We’ll update our Web site with the news as fast as we can, despite some technical problems plaguing us this week.
Sign up for our e-mail alerts or text message alerts, and you’ll be the first to know.
Second, we have an update on the body parts investigation. Expect to see state troopers combing the sides of Interstates 80 and 380 today and tomorrow. There’s probably more evidence out there and officials are determined to find it.
Meanwhile, we have story, photos, video and a map of the Poconos showing where the bags of body parts were dumped.
An East Stroudsburg University connection to the Super Bowl:Giants offensive line coach Pat Flaherty is an alumnus. And then there’s our special Super Bowl page, a joint effort featuring coverage from several Ottaway newspapers in the New England/Greater New York area. Looks like Patriots fans are in the majority.
It’s Wednesday. No matter what else happens, Wednesday brings you news about local schools. Today it’s a Stroudsburg graduate whose work in archaeology is changing the way we think about Neanderthal man. And there’s another story about Stroudsburg students who aren’t buying the guff about the death of newspapers. (We’re not dying, just changing so fast it makes our heads spin.)
A little-known feature of our Web site: World and National News. National story: Fed cuts interest rates to stave off recession caused by sub prime mortgage fraud. And proof that all news is really local: Our coverage, starting in 2001, of the sub prime mortgage scams in the Poconos. Yes, you read it here first.
Lastly, look for reporter Howard Frank on WYOU-TV this evening discussing the A&B Fuel scandal. He’s scheduled for three segments between 5 and 6:30 p.m. WYOU is the Wilkes-Barre CBS affiliate. For past coverage of the issue, visit our Consumer section.
