Cuts at the U.S. Forest Service could lead to unintended consequences, former workers say
Maintaining the country's forests takes an army of Forest Service workers, but recent job cuts have reduced the number of its soldiers, which some say could lead to unintended consequences. Dalyn Grindle, Jack Corney and Tim Leedy all worked at Wyoming's Shoshone National Forest — the United States' first federally protected national forest, and a park that's always buzzing with activity, even in winter, with people snowmobiling, riding bikes, hiking and rock climbing. But they were among 17 employees recently fired from the Shoshone National Forest, according to a senior Forest Service official. Grindle, Corney and Leedy each received a letter that said they were being fired for poor job performance, but they don't buy it. "It's not the real reason," Grindle told CBS News. "You know, I put my heart and soul under that job and that's just not true," Leedy said. Every summer, tens of millions of Americans visit the U.S.'s 154 national forests, which span over 193 million acres, but this summer, the campgrounds and trails might look a little different. "I think there's a lot of unforeseen consequences that the general public doesn't- aren't always aware of," Grindle said. Corney noted part of his job was picking up trash and clearing trails so people could "access the wilderness. And that's just, that's not going to happen this year." The local ranger station in Lander, Wyoming, used to be where visitors could go to get information about the forest, such as good places to camp, trails to hike or safety tips. But thanks to to the recent firings, the station won't be open any time soon. Cutbacks at the Forest Service also come as wildfires nationwide grow fiercer and more frequent. Grindle , Corney and Leedy were all qualified firefighters, no longer available should a blaze erupt in the forest.

Former prison officer sentenced for smuggling methamphetamine into GA state prison
A former prison officer has been sentenced for smuggling methamphetamine inside a Georgia state prison. Nicholas Grindle, 32, was sentenced for conspiracy to possess methamphetamine with the intent to distribute and bribery. Grindle was challenged during his sentencing for asking the Court for mercy based on false claims that he had been injured in combat during his military service. 'Grindle violated his oath of office by smuggling drugs into a prison he swore to protect,' said Acting U.S. Attorney Richard S. Moultrie, Jr. 'He then compounded this crime by lying about his military service.' According to information presented in court, Grindle smuggled meth into Hays State Prison for over a month in late 2023 and early 2024. Grindle was caught by fellow officers after they searched his locker and located methamphetamine, cell phones, and other contraband he planned to sell in the prison. A review of his financial records also showed he was receiving bribery payments from inmates to bring drugs and other items into the prison. He was sentenced to 87 months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release.
