Good morning, Cheyenne.

Douglas Smith was found guilty on two counts of first degree murder for the 2015 killings of George Manley and Dwight Brockman at a Cheyenne coin shop—verdict reached by a Laramie County jury after nearly ten years of investigation.

Cheyenne police said new technology revealed inconsistencies in his statements, leading to his arrest in 2024 and a trial that delivered the conviction.

A woman who pleaded guilty to misdemeanor property destruction earlier this month was arrested again on July 14 for felony property destruction that caused over $8,000 in damage—she now faces a $5,000 cash bond and a preliminary hearing on July 25 at 9:45 a.m.

On Friday night, Sheridan native Ian Munsick became the first Wyomingite to headline Cheyenne Frontier Days—he fulfilled his lifelong dream and drew cheers from a full crowd.

Munsick, moved by his family's support and deep roots in the state, said the event was a proud homecoming moment.

Today at 9 a.m., Cheyenne will host the first of four Frontier Days Grand Parades featuring vibrant floats, cowboys in traditional garb and historic stagecoaches—military processions will also honor local heritage.

Visitors should arrive early to secure a good viewing spot as extra parades are scheduled for Tuesday, Thursday and the final Saturday.

A Laramie County judge extended a freeze on funds for Wyoming’s universal school voucher program—halting payments for families until the court rules on its constitutionality.

The state attorney general filed a notice of appeal on July 17 and officials said they will challenge the decision as families await further help.
