Nahinu, 18, was charged with the shooting of a teenaged girl on July 19, 2015 near the Red Bluff Diversion Dam. After being on the run for a month, Nahinu turned himself in on Aug. 19, 2015. Nahinu rejected a previous offer by the prose- cutor in November for the charge of assault with a deadly weapon. The original charges included willful and premeditated murder. The sentence for assault with a deadly weapon is five years to a maximum of 17 years. The shooting incident involved a dispute over social media. Two teenage girls had been in a disagreement online and met near the Diversion Dam to dis- cuss it, Tehama County Sheriff's Detective Jeff Garrett said at a previous hearing. Garrett said the two girls, one being the vic- tim, had weapons. The girls both agreed to put the weapons down and at that time they heard a gun shot. One of the girls was shot and sent to Mercy Medical Center in Redding following the inci- dent. She has since recovered from her injuries. Tehama County Superior Court Judge Todd Bottke handed down the sentence.

The man, 57, was driving a 2002 Chevrolet Prism at an unknown high rate of speed eastbound on Lo- leta when he drifted partially onto the right shoulder of the roadway, ac- cording a California Highway Patrol report issued late Sunday. The man over-corrected and made a hard braking application, the report said. As a result, the vehicle rotated about 90 degrees counter clockwise, sliding off the north roadway edge. The vehicle rolled over and landed on the roof in the yard of a residence on the 24000 block of Loleta Ave- nue, the report said. The man was thrown from the vehicle and died at the scene. No other individuals were injured in the incident. The man's name was not released.

Devere Dressler of Gard- nerville, Nevada said he started coming to the sale because of his grandfather, Fred Dressler, who used to bring bulls to Red Bluff back when it was a Here- ford sale. He's been com- ing off and on for years to purchase cattle for his op- eration. "I'm an old school guy," Dressler said. "Obviously, you look at genetics, but I also look at the feet and frame. If it can't move around it won't do you any good." Working with a cattle operation is something he finds fun and he can't see himself doing anything else, Devere said. Dick England of Eng- land Ranches in Prineville, Oregon is a consignor with 30 years in at the Red Bluff Bull Sale and a lifetime in the cattle business. His sons Jim and John have joined him in the business and they brought 18 bulls to the sale, all of whom made it through the sift- ing, England said. "I'm the third oldest consignor," England said. "I've been here 30 years, but this is my 66th year in the Hereford business. I started with a Heifer I bought at 18 and now I'm 83." When England looks at a bull, he looks at the bull's eyes, the size of the scro- tum and the way it devel- ops, he said. Red Bluff Bull & Geld- ing Sale Board Director Ron Anderson and Auc- tioneer Rick Machado welcomed the crowd to the sale, reflecting on the 75-year tradition. Ander- son announced that the Gelding Sale had set a re- cord Friday with a $35,000 sale and averages sitting at $10,000. Stock dog sales on Friday averaged $6,300. "When you start to think about 75 years (of the Bull Sale) you wonder about the guys who started it and what they would think," Anderson said. "It's a labor of love. We don't get paid money. We get paid in the horses, dogs and bulls you bring us and you buy- ers who support us every year. On behalf of the Bull Sale, we want to thank you."

BULL PAGE 7 By Julie Pace and Catherine Lucey The Associated Press DES MOINES, IOWA Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, a fiery conservative loathed by his own party's leaders, swept to victory in Iowa's Republican caucuses Monday, overcoming billionaire Donald Trump and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio. Among Demo- crats, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders were deadlocked in a tight race. Cruz's victory over Trump was a testament to his massive get-out-the-vote operation in Iowa and the months he spent wooing the state's in- fluential conservative and evangelical leaders. It was also a harsh blow to Trump, the supremely confident real estate mogul who has riled the Republican field for months with controversial statements about women and minorities. Trump sounded humble in defeat, saying he was "honored" by the support of Iowans. And he vowed to keep up his fight for the Republi- can nomination. "We will go on to easily beat Hillary or Bernie or whoever the hell they throw up," Trump told cheering supporters. Rubio, a favorite of more mainstream Repub- licans, was challenging Trump for second place and cast his stronger-than-expected finish as a victory. "We have taken the first step, but an important step, to winning the nomination," Rubio said at a campaign rally in Des Moines. He congratulated Cruz, saying he'd "earned his victory."
