He eventually began his career as an outlaw, changing his name from Erastus Christiansen to the now famous Matt Warner. “Here in the Basin and around the West, Matt Warner rustled and robbed with Butch Cassidy and other outlaws and bandits of his day,” shares the announcement. “Then, he switched sides and wore a badge.

Be a Little Bit Naughty at Lehi Art’s MATILDA
LEHI — Growing up, the books of Roald Dahl and the imagination behind them were very important in my household. Making a drive to Lehi to see Matilda the Musical at the Lehi Arts Council in Friday traffic may seem a bit crazy for a Northern Utahn, but since this is the year anniversary of my mother’s death and I have vivid memories of her reading the book to me, I take any opportunity I can to see the musical with music and lyrics by Tim Minchin and a book by Dennis Kelly. The story follows young, brilliant Matilda, played the night I saw the show by Alicia Wright, as she struggles with the trauma of parents who do not love her, a principal who mistreats her, and powers that she cannot understand.

A man facing execution for 1998 murder addresses Utah parole board, asks for life sentence instead
A man facing execution next month for the murder his girlfriend’s mother asked state officials Monday to spare his life, saying he is not the same person he was when he killed the woman after a day of drinking and using drugs. Taberon Dave Honie told the Utah parole board that he never planned to kill 49-year-old Claudia Benn and doesn’t remember much about the killing, which happened when Benn’s three grandchildren, including Honie’s 2-year-old daughter, were in her home. He would never have committed the crime had he been in his “right mind”, he said. “I earned my place in prison. What I’m asking today for this board to consider is ‘Would you allow me to exist?’,” he said during the first day of a two-day hearing at the Utah State Correctional Facility in Salt Lake City. Honie said he wanted to continue to be able to be there for his mother and his daughter, who is in recovery for substance abuse, but he acknowledged that killing his daughter’s grandmother devastated her family.
Death of Utah State's Andre Seldon Jr. rocks the college football world
In what can only be described as a horrific tragedy, Utah State defensive back Andre Seldon Jr. passed away on Saturday after a fluke drowning accident. According to a press release by Utah State, the defensive back transfer was seen jumping off cliffs at the Porcupine Reservoir and he didn't resurface. To me, this sounds like he hit the water hard and awkward enough to knock him out and he was never able to swim to safety. After doing some quick research, it appears that cliff jumping here is a popular activity, but they do appear steep and there are areas of excess rock at the bottom which could be enough to knock someone out. I won't speculate, but this seems like a freak accident.
