Television Today The Salt Lake Tribune Wednesday October 28 1987 E7 13 Will Be Lucky Number on Cable Judge Justifies Giving Hofmann 5 to Life By Paul Roily Tribune Staff Writer Harold Schindler Effective Monday when KSTU makes the formal transmission changeover from ultra-high frequency (UHF) to very-high frequency (VHF) and officially becomes Channel 13 rather than its former designation of Channel 20 Community Television of Utah Inc will similarly switch KSTU to cable Channel 13 and move Nickelodeon to cable Channel 23 Television Editor The families of double-murderer Mark victims were able to rebuild their lives two years after the homicides while those hurt by triple-murderer Pierre Dale Selby languished in uncertainty and dismay for years Such a comparison was offered Tuesday by 3rd District Judge Kenneth Rigtrup the man who sentenced Hofmann last year to two concurrent 5-year-to-life prison terms for his guilty pleas to the Oct 15 1985 brutal bombing murders of Stephen Christensen and Kathy Sheets Judge Rigtrup in a speech before the Salt Lake Chapter of the International Footprmters Association justified his acceptance of a controversial plea bargain in the Hofmann case a deal that allowed the killer to escape the specter of first-degree-murder convictions and the possibility of a death sentence 1 Worid $rts Game 7: St louts vs Minnesota I WmM Swiss Gam 4:

people in the Ogden Hi-Fi Shop in 1974 while Hofmann a white Mormon was able to negotiate a plea bargain for his crimes Selby was executed last August after 13 years of appeals Hofmann is serving two concurrent five-to-life terms at the Utah State Prison But the families of the victims in the Hofmann bombings have fared far better than those relatives of victims the judge said should think of the he said should be a priority in our minds when we deal with these The relatives of victims waited 13 years for that sensational case to reach a conclusion with each news account of another appeal causing another headline and another reminder of their tragedy But the Hofmann matter is now over the judge said He added that he has been thanked by relatives of both Mr Christensen and Mrs Sheets and that those relatives expressed relief the matter was over Judge Rigtrup noted he received a great deal of pressure and criticism as the plea-bargain negotiations neared a conclusion and after they were announced The broadcast change will take place officially Monday at 7 pm MWT will retain the existing staff studio and call letters of KSTU but will operate an entirely new transmitter from Farnsworth Peak west of the city FOR WHAT WORTH: KSL howled and CBS listened for a change The angry response of CBS affiliates in Denver Phoenix and Salt Lake City to the unfortunate pro football programming last Sunday morning reached the network powers that be KSL complained it did not want NFL Today to air at 10:30 am on single-game broadcast days if the game was slated for afternoon That kind of organization left Rocky Mountain area affiliates with a three-hour wasteland filled only by calls from irate viewers CBS agreed Tuesday that the remaining afternoon single-game broadcast
