Article Icon 1Two Death Row Inmates Face Additional Sentences

Two Arizona death row inmates could receive additional death sentences for the alleged killing of a fellow condemned prisoner, Pinal County Attorney Brad Miller announced Friday.

Miller filed a notice of intent to seek the death penalty against Pete Van Winkle and Tracy Hampton in the death of inmate Kenneth Thompson while all three were incarcerated.

Miller said the circumstances of the killing and the defendants' histories justified pursuing the state's strongest punishment. The case remains in the courts.

Van Winkle had been sentenced to death for the May 2008 murder of another inmate while they were both inmates in the Maricopa County Jail. Hampton was serving a death sentence for May 2001 double murders. Thompson was condemned in 2019 for killing two people in Prescott Valley.

Article Icon 1AZ Murder Suspect Arrested in Germany

A 20-year-old Tucson man accused of killing his girlfriend was arrested at a German airport this week, intercepted before boarding a connecting flight to his home country of India.

On Thursday, first responders were called to a Tucson apartment near Euclid and Elm after a family-requested welfare check. Tucson Fire crews arrived and found 19-year-old Julissa Rubi Salazar deceased with injuries consistent with homicide.

Police identified her boyfriend, Varun Batchigari, who allegedly fled through Houston to Germany the same day. A roommate told investigators Salazar had planned to end the relationship.

Charged with first-degree murder and kidnapping, Batchigari awaits extradition to Pima County following coordination among Tucson police, the FBI, and German authorities.

Article Icon 1Flagstaff Marks 25 Years as World's First Dark Sky City

An art exhibition in Flagstaff is spotlighting the city's 25th anniversary as the world's first International Dark Sky City.

"NightVisions: Amber," presented by Creative Flagstaff and the Flagstaff Dark Skies Coalition at the Coconino Center for the Arts, runs through Sept. 26 and features 36 local, state, national, and international artists.

The show alternates between white light and narrow-band amber lighting, which the Flagstaff Dark Skies Coalition credits with reducing skyglow, glare, and disruption to nocturnal wildlife.

Flagstaff, designated in 2001, reports skyglow more than 90% lower than comparable cities. Additional anniversary events run through an Oct. 24 celebration.
