SALT LAKE CITY (UPI) Scott Matheson, saying he is deeply troubled over the Kenneth Glenn Roberts case, Monday ordered a management audit of prison release procedures. The governor said he wants to find out if inmates are being released prematurely, but said the study won't compete with a criminal investigation of state officials being conducted by the Salt Lake County Attorney. Roberts was released from the Utah State Prison last Christmas Eve, and hours later he was was back in custody, arrested in connection with a crime spree in which one woman was shot and paralyzed and another was kidnapped. News media reports have alleged that State Corrections Director Robert Milliken personally ordered Roberts released to a halfway house on Christmas Eve," knowing that the facility was closing for the holidays.

That program would allow federal agencies and state agencies to consolidate their land holdings in Utah. Presently, federal and state lands are intermingled, making them difficult to administer. Utah's governor proposed Project Bold as a more practical idea than the "Sagebrush Rebellion." The rebellion is an effort to gain state ownership of federal territory. Matheson also signed into law a bill establishing a formal system for picking water district commissioners. The system involves the selection OH by county commisioners of potential water commissioners. The governor then makes a selection from the among the candidates, and the nominee then faces a confirmation vote in the State Senate. Wo regret any Inconvonlonco this may havo causod our customers.
