spokane county sheriff's detectives were about to discover a new piece of evidence.a recording -- eerie and garbled and fleeting -- and it might just be enough to help solve a murder. a break and a shock. >> it hit me really hard. it was like a rock in my stomach. feel the clarity of non-drowsy claritin and relief from symptoms caused by over 200 indoor and outdoor allergens. like those from buddy. because stuffed animals are clearly no substitute for real ones. feel the clarity. and live claritin clear. >>> there is nothing quite like a murder to put the most intimate parts of life on public display. investigators had tracked down two suspicious men chanin was dating, one a married teacher was at her house on the day she likely died. the other sent chanin a racy text message that almost mimicked the crime scene. they offered alibis, of course, but since the detectives didn't know exactly when chanin died, they couldn't check them out. funny how one little break can make all the difference. >> it hit me really hard. it was like a rock in my stomach. >> reporter: dete

as the spokane review reported, she knows everyone staying at the house by name. she feeds them from donations from restaurants and churches. once a bride and groom, still in their dress and tux, donated two weeks' worth of food left over from their reception. around the holidays, hope house's fridges are full so about n't fit a slice of a log knee in them. -- baloney in them. this is -- balogne in them. is is because people, like the employees at hope house, the director leading its expansion, the bride and groom, our church congregations have the power to improve the world around them. i have another story to share. but it isn't one of hope. it's one of people losing their ability to serve their community. nearly 14,000 people live in my district. many work in timber or mining, the hospitaling or elsewhere. however, in the entire county, we are down to one childcare center. just one, which is run by the local tribe and they have a long waiting list. statewide regulations are making it too difficult for local providers to comply with licensing requirements. as on
