Lattimer report on Katie's Law tops 6 p.m. newscasts

All three local 6 p.m. newscasts today led, as expected, with the news that the two men charged with murdering Bob and Ellen Sheldon of Carthage, had waived their arraignments and pleaded not guilty this morning.

The best of the rest was KODE reporter Dustin Lattimer's piece on Gov. Jay Nixon's visit to the area today to sign a number of crime bills into law. Lattimer concentrated on the signing of Katie's Law, which will require DNA samples to be taken from those who are arrested for certain felony offenses.

KODE's newscasts have had a certain increased amount of energy the past several weeks.

Its kind of sad that the youngest reporter they have is also the best reporter they have.
