OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — In its attempt to overturn damages awarded to two people wrongly convicted in a 1985 murder, Nebraska could end up paying more to one of them.

JoAnn Taylor and James Dean were among six people wrongfully convicted in the rape and murder of Helen Wilson.

State prosecutors appealed the $500,000 awarded to Taylor, who spent nearly 20 years in prison, and the $300,000 awarded to Dean, behind bars more than five years, arguing they weren’t eligible to collect damages because they perjured themselves by confessing.

On Friday, the Nebraska Supreme Court upheld Taylor’s award, but reversed Dean’s, saying the trial judge improperly based Dean’s smaller award on the fact that he had spent less time in prison than Taylor. It ordered the lower court to recalculate Dean’s award.

COLUMBUS, Neb. (AP) — A 38-year-old man has been sent to prison for sexually assaulting his daughters and producing child pornography.

The man had pleaded no contest. Prosecutors dismissed some charges in exchange for the man’s pleas. The Associated Press is not using the man’s name, in order to protect the privacy of his victims.

The judge gave the rural Columbus man 30 to 50 years for sex assault and 10 to 15 years for incest. He was given seven to 10 years on the porn charges, to run after the other sentences are served.

A warrant affidavit says the man sexually abused his daughters, ages 7 and 9, while taking baths with them. The porn charges involved four girls ranging in ages from 7 to 11.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — State health and environment officials have issued a health alert for toxic blue-green algae at Willow Creek Reservoir in Pierce County. An alert is continuing for Rockford Lake near Beatrice in southeastern Nebraska.

The alerts were issued following tests of the lakes’ water. Signs have been posted at the lakes, urging people not to swim in them. People can still use the lakes’ public areas for other activities.

Skin exposed to the toxin from certain strains of blue-green algae can develop rashes and blisters. Someone who drinks water containing the toxin is at risk for headaches, nausea and muscular pain.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A divided Iowa Supreme Court says juvenile offenders must be resentenced if they were convicted in the state as adults and awarded mandatory minimum sentences.

State officials say the ruling means more than 100 people face resentencing for crimes including robbery, murder, kidnapping and sexual abuse.

In deciding the appeal of Andre Jerome Lyle Jr. on Friday, the court said required minimum sentences for juveniles are unconstitutional because they amount to cruel and unusual punishment. Lyle was 17 years old in 2010 when he was convicted of robbery and sentenced to up to 10 years in prison.

Three justices disagreed with the Iowa ruling. It follows a U.S. Supreme Court decision last year that all no-parole juvenile lifers must be considered for parole.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Preliminary autopsy results show a 54-year-old Omaha woman died of blunt force trauma to her head and her son died of what appears to have been carbon monoxide poisoning.

A news release from the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office on Friday said investigators are still awaiting toxicology results to confirm the cause of Cooper Flanagan’s death.

His body and that of his mother, Maureen Flanagan, were found Wednesday morning in their northwest Omaha home. Hers was discovered in the basement. His was found in a car in the garage.

Chief Douglas County Deputy Sheriff Thomas Wheeler told The Associated Press that investigators have considered the possibility that the 18-year-old attacked his mother before taking his own life, “but we want to rule out any other possibility before we make a statement.”

CASHION, Okla. (AP) — Authorities say an infant has been found unharmed in West Texas after she was abducted in Oklahoma.

Dispatcher Traci Tate with the Kingfisher County Sheriff’s Department says the 5-month-old girl, Olivia Smith, was found “safe and sound” early Friday morning.

Tate said later that the girl was found in Seminole, Texas, by local authorities. She said no one was “in custody” but said she could not elaborate. She said that the department had no further details but that the Seminole police chief would be making a statement Friday morning.

In Texas, the Gaines County Sheriff’s Department says no arrests have been made.

The Oklahoma Department of Public Safety canceled the Amber Alert it had issued for the girl.

Authorities had said earlier the girl was abducted near Cashion, in central Oklahoma.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — One driver has been killed in a crash involving three semitrailers on Interstate 80 in southeast Nebraska.

The Nebraska State Patrol says the accident occurred around 4:40 p.m. Thursday just west of the Seward exit. The patrol says two eastbound big rigs had stopped because of construction, but a third big rig coming up from behind didn’t stop in time and rammed the rear of one, which ran into the rear of the other truck.

The patrol says the driver of the truck that didn’t stop was pronounced dead at the scene, and a passenger in the truck was flown to a Lincoln hospital. One of the other truck drivers was taken to Memorial Hospital in Seward with minor injuries. The remaining driver wasn’t hurt.

No names have been released.

GRETNA, Neb. (AP) — A man who was tossed from a moving golf car in a residential area near Omaha has died nearly a week after the accident.

The Sarpy County Sheriff’s Office said Thursday that Patrick Jurgensen, of Gretna, died at an Omaha hospital on Wednesday night.

Jurgensen was a passenger in the rear of the golf cart around 9:15 p.m. on July 10 as it traveled in a residential area of Gretna. The driver of the golf cart was making a turn when Jurgensen was tossed into the intersection and suffered a head injury.

Sheriff’s Lt. Brian Richards says the accident investigation is continuing so the county attorney’s office can determine whether charges are merited.

PILGER, Neb. (AP) — Not even a tornado will stop Pilger from hosting its annual summer festivities.

The Pilger Days event starts at 6:30 p.m. Friday with a horseshoe tournament, a high school alumni banquet and a chance to visit the Stanton County Historical Society Museum.

Festivities will continue Saturday starting at 9 a.m., with a children’s story time event, a mud volleyball tournament, a lunch and barbeque, and other activities.

Organizers will hold a fundraiser Saturday afternoon with a $1,000 goal. The highest contributor will get to use a Taser on Stanton County Sheriff Mike Unger.

The village is also hosting its annual Sweet Corn and Hamburger dinner on Aug. 6. Several 5- and 10-gallon drink containers were lost in the tornado. Containers can be left at the village clerk’s office.
