NELSON, Neb. (AP) - The chief deputy of the Nuckolls County sheriff won't be charged with domestic assault involving his wife.
The Thayer County attorney, who was appointed as special prosecutor, says there isn't enough evidence to try 48-year-old Scott Stemper of Nelson.
Stemper was arrested last month following an investigation by the Nebraska State Patrol but has been out on bail.
Stemper has been with the Nuckolls County Sheriff's Office for 23 years. He is a former mayor of Nelson who was recalled in 2005.
