Hiker Survives a Frigid Night in a Campground Bathroom (pln16)

In this article the hiker, Chad Koch found himself lost during his hike. He was forced to take refuge in the campground restroom when a winter storm dumped more than 18 inches of snow and dropped the temperature below zero. Koch's dog "Snoopy", a small jack russell terrier was killed from exposure to the frigid snow drifts. Koch's mother reported that he had not returned late Monday. Search and rescue volunteers went looking for Koch on ski's snowmobile's and horseback when they were forced to suspend the search because of the harsh weather conditions. They resumed hunting when they herd that Koch had been found. When Koch woke the sun was rising allowing Koch to find which way was east. He walked eastward until he saw a man plowing his drive. The man allowed him into his house gave him coffee and a warm blanket. The man also called the authorities. This was important to me because it tells people to always be as careful as possible and how to protect yourself if you are ever in a situation like his. Most people would think this was important because it sends a message to people reminding them to always be prepared for any thing.

Accused Killer of Denver Bronco is Facing new Charges (pln15)

According to the Denver Post the man accused of killing Darrent Williams (the broncos cornerback) is now being faced with new charges of possessing dangerous contraband in Denver City Jail. Willie Clark is facing life in prison for the murder of Williams. Clark is also facing these charges for the shooting of Kalonniann Clark, this woman was not related to Clark but was going to testify in an attempted murder case against Brian Hicks. Hicks was one of Clark's associates. This article about Clark matters to me because I think we should try to keep dangerous people who have been convicted with things such as murder put away so that they can not hurt anyone. Most would agree with me because we all want to be as safe as possible and don't want dangerous people running around freely. People should always have their share of punishment when they commit such crimes so that it decreases the chance of them doing it again.
