DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds has signed a bill into law requiring doctors to screen patients’ risk of addiction before prescribing some painkillers. The law is part of the state’s effort to begin addressing its growing opioid epidemic. Reynolds signed it Monday at a Dubuque medical center that treats opioid addiction. A good Samaritan provision will also give legal immunity to anyone who calls 911 to report an overdose.

UNDATED (AP) — Activists have converged on state capitals around the U.S., opening weeks of planned protests calling for new programs to help the millions of Americans who live in poverty, an overhaul of voting rights laws and other social issues. Reports by police from seven state capitols and Washington, D.C., showed more than 200 people were arrested or cited Monday on the first day of the so-called Poor People’s Campaign.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Two organizations are expected to announce a lawsuit challenging a new Iowa law that bans most abortions once a fetal heartbeat is detected. Iowa affiliates for Planned Parenthood and the American Civil Liberties Union said Monday they’ll make a joint announcement Tuesday afternoon. They declined to provide more information. The law, set to go into effect on July 1, bans most abortions in Iowa once a fetal heartbeat is detected. That’s around six weeks of pregnancy.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Officers have cited a group of protesters at the Iowa Capitol who gathered in and around the staff offices of Gov. Kim Reynolds. The Iowa State Patrol briefly held 10 people Monday afternoon who refused to leave the building at the close of business hours. They were cited for misdemeanor trespassing and released. The protesters were among several dozen people who gathered to highlight issues tied to poverty, inequality and the environment.

DUBUQUE, Iowa (AP) — A Dubuque woman has been sentenced to 30 years in prison after admitting she beat her ex-husband to death with a baseball bat. The Telegraph Herald reports 64-year-old Dolores A. Flynn apologized in court Monday before she was sentenced, saying “If I could take it back, I would.”

Judge Michael Shubatt sentenced her to the 30 years recommended in a plea deal. Shubatt noted, “no one deserves to be beaten to death with a baseball bat.” Flynn initially was charged with second-degree murder in the death of 72-year-old Gary Breckenridge on Jan. 4, 2016. She pleaded guilty last month to voluntary manslaughter, willful injury and assault.

Breckenridge died at the home he shared with Flynn. Flynn says she wanted to apologize to the couple’s children for her actions.

The law is part of the state’s effort to begin addressing its growing opioid epidemic. Reynolds signed it Monday at a Dubuque medical center that treats opioid addiction.

A good Samaritan provision will also give legal immunity to anyone who calls 911 to report an overdose. Medical experts warn Iowa must be careful to avoid a spike in heroin and other illegal drug use, which some other states have experienced as an unintended consequence of limiting opioid medication.

The Iowa Department of Public Health says preliminary data shows the state had 98 deaths linked to heroin last year among 309 overall opioid-linked deaths.

Iowa affiliates for Planned Parenthood and the American Civil Liberties Union said Monday they’ll make a joint announcement Tuesday afternoon. They declined to provide more information.

The law, set to go into effect on July 1, bans most abortions in Iowa once a fetal heartbeat is detected. That’s around six weeks of pregnancy, making it the strictest abortion regulation in the country.

The groups warned shortly before Iowa Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds signed the law on May 4 that they would challenge its constitutionality. Reynolds and GOP lawmakers with majorities in the Legislature also indicated they expected the law to face litigation.

Activists converged on state capitals around the U.S. on Monday to begin six weeks of non-violent protests calling for new programs to help the millions of Americans who live in poverty, an overhaul of voting rights laws and other social change.

Officers cited 10 protesters at the Iowa Capitol who gathered in and around the staff offices of Gov. Kim Reynolds when they refused to leave the building at the close of business hours.

The campaign cast the protests as a “reignition” of the Poor People’s Campaign, the 1968 movement started by the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and others to challenge racism, poverty and militarism. According to the campaign, protesters will spend the next 40 days engaged in nonviolent action, including the mobilization of voters and holding teach-ins.

The first teach-in is scheduled for Tuesday in Washington. It is to feature Marian Wright Edelman, president of the Children’s Defense Fund and a part of the 1968 campaign.

Adair County Sheriff Jeff Vandewater reports 28-year old Adam James Magill, of Casey, was arrested May 7th in Guthrie County, on two Adair County warrants. The warrants charge Magill with Violation of Probation. His cash or surety bond was set at $4,000.

23-year old Ashley Nicole Kelly, of Des Moines, was arrested May 9th at the Polk County Jail on an Adair County warrant for Failure to serve Jail time. She was brought back to Adair County to serve the remainder of her court-ordered sentence.

And, 37-year old Michael B. Crall, of Orient, was issued a citation for OWI/2nd offense, May 11th, in connection with an accident that took place at around 9:35-p.m. April 5th, where a Chevy Impala struck a bridge. A deputy found Crall out of the vehicle, resting against the side of the bridge. The report said Crall appeared to have bloodshot, watery eyes, was unsteady on his feet, and smelled of alcohol. There were also several open containers inside the vehicle, and Crall told the Deputy he had consumed 15 beers.

He also appeared to have been injured, but consented to taking a preliminary breath test (PBT) prior to being transported to the hospital. The results of the PBT were above .08. Crall was transported to the Adair County hospital by his parents, and at the hospital, consented to giving a urine sample. The sample was sent to the State DCI lab, and came back with a Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) of .188, or a little more than twice the legal limit for intoxication.
