Justin Carrigan was sentenced to 6-15 years for failing to call 911 when his 4-year-old stepdaughter Rochelle Ellis stopped breathing last year, suffering permanent brain damage. A jury last month found there wasn't enough evidence that Carrigan caused his stepdaughter to stop breathing, but found him guilty of neglect.

With much fanfare in April, legislative leaders called for approval of a plan to make government more transparent to Nevadans. A few weeks later, the Senate unanimously passed a bill to require lobbyists to report their year-round expenditures on legislators.
