Shasta County is considering hiring Tina Peters to fill a role in its elections office as a contract employee for Assistant Registrar of Voters Brent Turner. Peters was convicted on charges related to the breach of Mesa County election equipment and recently released from a Colorado state prison after her sentence was commuted. Despite her past conviction, she agreed to travel to Shasta County to work in person.

Two adults were killed and a juvenile injured during a shooting at the Butte County Library in Chico, California. The suspect fled the scene but was later taken into custody, and police confirmed the shooter acted alone with no ongoing threat to the community.
