- A Goodyear community is grieving Jane Cook Biggs, remembered for helping neighbors, after her husband was accused of killing her.
STORY: https://azfamily.news/2p8kkwtf
Jane Cook Biggs is being remembered as a beloved friend, volunteer and the first person many newcomers met in Pebble Creek. Neighbors say she welcomed people with baskets, helped them get to appointments and built community through Kare Bears, a neighbors-helping-neighbors group. Her son reportedly became concerned after receiving troubling calls and messages from his father and flew to Arizona, where he found her dead. Jane’s husband, 92-year-old retired Maryland state trooper John Biggs Jr., faces a second-degree murder charge in her death. Court documents say the couple argued over investment funds before the killing; Biggs is held on a $1 million secured appearance bond.

- Arizona’s top prosecutor wants a pause on new AI data centers, warning the state’s water and power systems are already under pressure.
STORY: https://azfamily.news/2p94ndyb
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes is asking lawmakers and Gov. Katie Hobbs to temporarily halt approvals for new data centers, especially massive AI-focused projects. Mayes points to rising electricity costs and a nearly 30% cut in Arizona’s Colorado River water allocation. Her office says planned projects across greater Phoenix could drive data center-related water demand up more than 450%. Opposition is already growing, including in Pinal County, where supervisors rejected a rezoning request for a large data center. Mayes will hold an Oct. 14 town hall in Ahwatukee as neighbors raise concerns about a planned 1 million-square-foot facility.

- Description
- This special report covers catastrophic flash flooding in Bright Angel Canyon at the Grand Canyon that has killed at least two people and left more than a dozen missing. Meteorologists Royal Norman and Pete Mangione review rainfall totals and radar showing multiple rounds of storms on Saturday, with the most intense round around 2:30 PM producing up to a half-inch to over an inch of rain in under 30 minutes and radar estimates suggesting extremely heavy rates that could quickly generate an inch in 20–30 minutes. Officials describe how saturated ground, steep terrain, and runoff—made worse by ash and debris linked to the Dragon Bravo burn scar—sent debris-filled flows down the North Kaibab Trail into Phantom Ranch. The Weather Service discusses warning challenges due to sparse cell coverage, lack of NOAA weather radio coverage, reliance on radar in data-sparse areas, and limited alerting options such as satellite-phone notices for river rafters.

Reporter Molly McBride, on scene since Sunday, says the Red Cross initially opened a shelter at Grand Canyon High School but later closed it as needs changed, with evacuees placed in local hotels and lodges. She describes mixed reactions: locals say flash floods can happen, while rescued visitors were shocked by how quickly conditions went from sunny to knee-deep water. More than 60 people, many from Phantom Ranch, were airlifted out Saturday with no reported injuries, and survivors credit calm, decisive rangers for saving lives. The National Park Service reports at least a dozen people still missing or unaccounted for, and two bodies have been found; more updates are expected at an afternoon press conference.

Board members openly clashed during a lengthy meeting over how the district should define diversity, equity and inclusion. The proposed revision would rename the policy “Equal Opportunity and Merit Based Decision Making.” Supporters say the change adds legal clarity, while critics argue removing “DEI” from the title weakens the policy’s intent. The debate also follows controversy over the removal of books, including A Raisin in the Sun, from middle schools. It remains unclear whether the revised policy will move forward.

- On this week’s episode of “On Your Side: The Home Edition,” host Susan Campbell takes us to a central Phoenix home that’s gone through a massive remodel, and we see what $500,000 will get you in a neighborhood near the Papago Buttes.
Agent Misha Renteria shows us a north-central Phoenix home that has undergone a huge shift, transforming from a dated ranch-style home to a beautifully designed, updated property in a long-established Phoenix neighborhood.
Then Misha walks us through the remodel process – how to take an existing home and re-imagine it, keep the best of the original design while creating something dramatic and new.
Our look at $500,000 homes takes us to Phoenix, as agent Justine Ramos shows us around a house in an up-and-coming neighborhood in the shadow of the Papago Buttes.
