    This week, we lament the latest development in the ongoing Tina Peters saga, in which she claims to have been accosted by a fellow inmate, a questionable assertion based on surveillance video of the scuffle; a new restaurant coming to downtown by the owners of Palisade’s popular “Peche” restaurant; discuss whether or not justice was served in the case of John Taylor, who pleaded to a lesser charge in the shooting deaths of two men after originally pleading not guilty to second-degree murder.

    This week, we look at the surprise guilty plea in the case of a security guard who shot and killed two men on North Ave. in 2024, the bizarre case of a head and hands found in a freezer on private property that’s one in a string of high-profile cases from around the Grand Valley, state legislators wrestling with strained budgets as the 2026 session begins, and, it’s back to the future for the Museums of Western Colorado as they contemplate consolidating their many entities.

    Our usual local focus takes a bit of a detour in light of a very busy national newscycle as we reflect on ramifications of the Venezuelan military operation and the Seaton family’s legacy of promoting press freedom in South America; the Trump administration’s recent freeze on federal funding for child welfare programs in Colorado and other blue states as well as denial of FEMA funds for areas ravaged by last summer’s wildfires and veto of a funding bill for a crucial Arkansas Valley water pipeline, seen by many as retribution for Tina Peters’ imprisonment; and a look at Spirit Engineering’s rollout of the SE-1 airplane developed and manufactured right here in Grand Junction.

    This week, we examine the controversy over the Mesa County Commissioners’ most recent appointees to the library board known for espousing conservative views, overlooking the applications of current board members with a good record of service, CMU’s latest proposal for building a team facility at Stocker Stadium after outcry over an initial proposal that included removing the Lincoln Park Barn, and Rep. Jeff Hurd’s refusal to caucus with Democrats on a discharge petition to bring an ACA tax credit extension to a vote after drafting legislation that would have extended them.
