Clark County Nv

A federal grand jury indicted three current and former Clark County officials Thursday on charges they received kickbacks from a strip club owner. County Commission Chairwoman Mary Kincaid-Chauncey and former commissioners Dario Herrera and Lance Malone were charged with wire fraud and conspiracy to commit wire fraud. The 28-count indictment also charged Kincaid-Chauncey and Herrera with extortion and Malone with federal racketeering.

Diana Godinez has been standing for nearly two hours. The 10th-grader's violin bow whips dutifully through the air as she runs through her part of "Toro Coquito" for the dozenth time. The guitars across from her lay the sonic groundwork for the violins' syncopated counterpoint and the trumpets' bright blasts. An hour after the final school bell, the powerful sounds of 16 students ricochet off the green walls of the Rancho High School band room and spill out the door.
