Ghosthunting classes in Auburn

Like many other cities, Auburn regularly offers inexpensive adult education classes. In a recent Lewiston Sun Journal article, a list of what Auburn Adult Education is offering this March included an interesting surprise among the usual classes for varied subjects like sewing, belly dancing, boating, and online business marketing. How about trying your hand at ghosthunting?

That's right! Ghosthunting 101 will be meeting from 6:00-9:00 p.m. on Thursdays beginning March 15, for eight weeks. Presented by Central Maine Paranormal Investigations, the course will cover the basics of ghosthunting and the paranormal. Field training is included.

Hell's a-popping in Auburn trial

Some issues have arisen in the Auburn trial of Daniel Roberts that go beyond the existing concerns with juror responses to screening queries by lawyers from both sides.

The Lewiston Sun Journal reports, "After the jury was dismissed at the end of the day, Justice Joyce Wheeler told those attending the trial that some of the jurors had become aware that people in back-row seating were staring at them, apparently making them uncomfortable."

The Sun Journal goes on to remind readers that "Roberts was once leader of a local Hells Angels chapter." Yeah, the possibility of that type of thing might make the jurors, and the judge, a little nervous.
