 Dixon man accused of murder tries to force prosecutor to honor plea deal
Dixon man accused of murder tries to force prosecutor to honor plea dealDIXON, Mo. (June 4, 2010) — A Dixon teenager accused of killing a man by kicking and beating him to death still doesn’t have a trial date set and her co-defendant’s lawyer is trying to force Pulaski County Prosecutor Deborah Hooper to comply with the terms of a previous plea agreement. Ashley Gilbert, 18, has been in jail awaiting trial for more than a year, according to documents filed Wednesday in Phelps County Circuit Court by her Rolla-based lawyer, John Beger. Gilbert has pleaded innocent to a Class A felony charge of second-degree murder and is accused of killing Dixon resident David A. Blankenship on May 10 of last year along with her ex-boyfriend, Robert Fortner, 31, also of Dixon, who until he entered a plea agreement had been facing the same charges.

Mobile meth lab discovered after pickup nearly knocks down electric lines
DIXON, Mo. (May 21, 2010) — When cars smash into utility poles, the consequences can be devastating if live electric wires drop down onto the roadway and electrocute people or start fires. On Thursday night, Pulaski County sheriff’s deputies responded to a 10:58 p.m. report that a man had struck a Gascosage electric pole with a pickup truck, knocked out power to a nearby residence, and left driving toward Dixon in a navy blue Chevrolet Impala. Gascosage electric crews arrived on the scene by 11:22 p.m. and rapidly determined the situation was serious; the electric pole was being held up by the pickup truck, a transformer was located on top of the pole, and if the pole broke, it would knock down live electric wires. Inspection of the truck revealed even more serious problems: an anhydrous ammonia tank was in the truck which would pose a serious hazard under any circumstances, and even more so if struck by live power lines. Deputies called Dixon firefighters at 11:29 p.m. for potential emergency response, with Rothmund’s Towing removing the vehicle at 12:12 p.m. According to Sheriff J.B. King, a detective assigned to drug investigations had already been in the Dixon area since 7 p.m. following up on leads involving methamphetamine labs; he determined the pickup was being used as a mobile meth lab. King said the suspect in the meth lab was located and taken into custody. No names have yet been released pending filing of formal charges.
