LAS VEGAS -- Las Vegas police have given the Clark County District Attorney their case against former Henderson City Councilwoman Kathleen Vermillion.

An official at the DA's office says the case is under review and there is no estimated time frame of when that review will be completed or when a decision will be made.

In January, Clark County Commissioner Steve Sisolak filed a criminal complaint against Vermillion, who is his ex-girlfriend, alleging that she tried to extort $3.9 million from him.

Vermillion is also under scrutiny for misappropriating money at the charity she founded called Nevada Partnership for Homeless Youth. 

Some estimate his potential at eight figures per year.

Bryce Harper's first major league at-bat was an uneventful groundout against the Los Angeles Dodgers in front of a couple hundred relatives, friends and fans who drove in from his hometown.

LAS VEGAS -- A Nevada judge ruled against a temporary injunction by an animal activist group trying to save the life of a dog that fatally mauled a 1-year-old boy. The group plans to file an appeal.

The New York based Lexus Project wants ownership of the dog, named Onion, so it can be sent it to an animal sanctuary instead of euthanized. Currently, the dog is in the possession of the City of Henderson. The child's grandmother gave up ownership to Henderson Animal Control. The dog was deemed vicious and scheduled to be euthanized until the Lexus Project took up the cause.

The family pet attacked and killed Jeremiah Eskew-Shahan on April 27. The judge found that the group had no legal right to try to save the dog's life. 

Several people gathered outside the Regional Justice Center Friday morning prior to the hearing and voiced their opinions on what should happen to the dog.
