Indignity: Fallen Utah troopers struck down twice

U.S. Supreme Court allows ruling against memorial trooper crosses to stand

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Supreme Court declined Monday to review a case concerning the constitutionality of roadside memorial crosses honoring fallen Utah state troopers. A federal district court upheld the constitutionality of the crosses in 2007, but the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit later struck them down. The high court decided to let the decision stand.
