A new Rogers County sheriff's program is turning a helping hand back to its officers who help residents, often putting aside their needs.
Workers this week began razing the old Rogers County Courthouse, which was erected more than 70 years ago.
CLAREMORE — A physician’s assistant charged with second-degree murder in the deaths of two residents of the Claremore Veterans Center will have a preliminary hearing Nov. 5.
Kenneth A. Adams is accused in a multicounty grand jury indictment unsealed in June of neglecting his medical duties and not caring for Jay Minter, 83, who was scalded in a whirlpool and later died.
He is also accused of arranging a sexual liaison instead of caring for Louis Arterberry, 86, who had a stroke and later died.
Adams, who is free on bond, has been charged with two counts each of second-degree murder and caretaker neglect. He made an initial appearance in court June 9.
