NW today: Hypothermic woman crawls out of swamp
What’s news in the Northwest today:
CENTRALIA, Wash. – A Centralia woman, 23, was soaking wet, in her underwear, and covered with scratches from brush when she was rescued Thursday morning after crawling out of a swamp near the Nisqually River onto Interstate 5. A truck driver, John C. Davis, Portland, was changing a flat Thursday morning on northbound I-5 when he noticed the woman while she was climbing over a guardrail and that she was injured and obviously extremely cold. He offered his assistance and realized she needed medical attention. Davis drove the woman to a weigh station in DuPont and called 911. He gave her food and water while they waited for first-responders. She is expected to make a full recovery. The woman and a Centralia man had apparently driven down a dirt road and for reasons as yet unknown, left the vehicle. The pair were together willingly, police said. The woman said she took off most of her clothes after they became soaked with water and heavy while she waded through the swamp just north of the Nisqually River.
Boise airport police officer victim of hit-and-run
BOISE — Police in Caldwell are investigating a hit-and-run crash that injured an off-duty Boise airport police officer who was training for a bike race.

Man sentenced to life in prison for boy’s death
BOISE — A man was sentenced today to life in prison for killing his girlfriend’s 8-year-old son, then stuffing rocks in the boy’s pants pockets and dumping his body in an irrigation canal. As 4th District Judge Darla Williamson handed down Daniel Ehrlick’s sentence on a first-degree murder conviction, she said she could not force him to endure the same pain he inflicted on Robert Manwill, such as dropping his knees on the boy’s chest, because it would be cruel. But Ehrlick had committed cruel acts on Robert in the privacy of his home, she said. “Robert died all alone in substantial pain with no one there to care for him and love him,” Williamson said. Ehrlick, 38, was convicted in June and will not have the possibility of parole. The boy’s mother, Melissa Jenkins, also was sentenced Friday to 25 years in prison for her role in the 2009 slaying. She pleaded guilty in January to aiding and abetting second-degree murder as part of agreement with prosecutors. Jenkins, 32, sobbed as she faced the boy’s father, Charles Manwill, and told him that she would repent for Robert’s death for the rest of her life.
