WBFF Fox 45 :: Mom accused of leaving kids alone enters plea
BOWLING GREEN, Kentucky - A Bowling Green woman cuts a deal to avoid jail time for leaving 19 kids home alone. Police found the children, ages 7 months to 16, inside a filthy home during record breaking hot temperatures last summer. 32 year old Jackie Farah pleaded guilty to 4 counts of First Degree Wanton Endangerment. She also faced 14 counts of Criminal Abuse, but those charges were dropped in exchange for her guilty plea, with a recommended sentence of 8 years probation.

Courthouse in line for repairs, updates
May 25, 2013 15:50 GMT

MANCHESTER, Tenn. (AP) -- Officials in Coffee County are looking to update their historic courthouse instead of replacing the 141-year-old structure.

After all, they said the building is in pretty good shape. As far as repairs, it just needs some new paint and molding, as well as work to repair some water damage. But county maintenance director Robert Gilliam says the entire structure needs updating in order to make it last until the next century.

Gilliam and County Mayor David Pennington told the Chattanooga Times Free Press (http://bit.ly/19ivpQ6 ) that officials have taken care to maintain the building and it hasn't had any major renovations in decades.

Historical society spokeswoman Joanna Lewis said the group is trying to come up with fundraising ideas for the project.
