    Cottonwood AZ (February 10, 2017) – On February 3, 2017, 18-year-old Christian Swank of Cottonwood was arrested on 5 counts of Sexual Conduct with a Minor. Swank was booked at the Camp Verde Detention Center and is being held without bond.

    In late January of this year, deputies received information regarding sexual molestation allegations involving 2 victims, one under the age of 10 and the other under the age of 13. Both victims are known to suspect Swank. Investigators conducted forensic interviews with the victims and established probable cause that Swank was involved in sexual activity with each victim on several separate occasions in 2015 within Yavapai County. As a result of the investigation, detectives located and arrested Swank following a traffic stop around 8 PM on February 2, 2017.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
