Good morning, Coeur d'Alene.

At a cool Monday evening ceremony at Coeur d'Alene City Park, nearly 25 community members gathered to honor eight Idaho workers who died on the job in 2024 by playing taps and offering a prayer from Dale Broadsword—president of the Idaho Alliance for Retired Americans.

Brad Cederblom of the Northern Idaho Central Labor Council noted the memorial marked a decline from 24 deaths the previous year and called for stronger workplace safety measures.

Blake J. Weatherly, 31, from Rathdrum is facing hate crime charges—malicious harassment and aggravated assault—after he pointed a handgun at a Black man, used racist slurs and threatened to kill him during an argument on March 8; he posted bail and is set to appear in court in May.

Kristine Meyer, chair of the Friends of KSPS board, urged Congress today to maintain federal funding for public broadcasting because its $1.60 per American investment supports public safety alerts, emergency communications and education in rural areas of Eastern Washington, North Idaho and parts of Montana + her remarks follow Congress's approval of public media funding in the final fiscal year 2025 budget.
