Sunflower in Trouble After Protest

KWCH - Kansas News and Weather - Sunflower in Trouble After Protest: "They fought to get a junk house cleaned up and won. But now members of the Sunflower Community Action Group faces charges for their tactics. In December they staged a protest outside the home of Wichita City Manager George Kolb. The city pressed charges against them.

Katherine Perry lived next to junk house for 20 years at 10th and Volutsia. The Sunflower group want the city to do something about it. When nothing changed about a dozen people showed up at the doorstep of Kolb. He wasn't home to hear them but Kolb's wife answered the door and told them to leave. Before they did, they left a pile of posters on the porch.

The Wichita City Attorney says they broke the law. This week, police served papers to Perry, the president of Sunflower and two others. They're charged with criminal trespassing and illegal dumping. 'I'm in trouble but you know what it's worth it all. I'd do it again if I have to,' 78-year-old Perry said. She's thrilled because since the protest her block looks a lot different, last month the city cleaned up the junk."

After Crash, Police Hiring Is Questioned

After Crash, Police Hiring Is Questioned : ServeNow.com: "Legal papers served on officials in Jersey City

Jersey City was in need of police officers in December 2005, and the news had filtered down to an officer in Middletown Township, N.J., who was looking for a fresh start.

The officer, Kevin Freibott, approached his chief in Middletown with a transfer form, a gesture that was met with little surprise. Officer Freibott was fired from the department there in 2001 after a car accident outside a bar and grill in Atlantic Highlands in which he was driving with an expired license. Although he was reinstated after petitioning the state, he received a six-month suspension.

“He took a big, whopping suspension,” said his former chief, Robert Oches. “I bet in his mind he felt his career dead-ended here.”

That was not the only blot on Officer Freibott’s record. In an interview this week, a former police chief in Jersey City said that investigators were aware of the spotty record of Officer Freibott — who now faces charges of aggravated manslaughter, assault by auto and drunken driving from a crash last month on the Pulaski Skyway — but saw no reason not to hire him.

Scorned wife accuses Miracle Met of affair by revealing lurid e-mails

Scorned wife accuses Miracle Met of affair by revealing lurid e-mails: "The scorned wife of Miracle Met Art Shamsky accuses the ex-outfielder of sleeping with a Rye secretary and has sent the woman's husband 175 e-mails she says document their longstanding affair.

She has now shared the sordid details with The Journal News, the woman's hometown paper, in hopes of disgracing her 'so she can't show her face in public.'

Kim Shamsky, 47, a temp agency entrepreneur who accuses her spouse of sponging off her fortune, subpoenaed alleged mistress Toni Magnane, 57, last week to force her to participate in the Shamskys divorce brawl.

On Thursday, Kim Shamsky went public by inviting a reporter to the swanky Rainbow Room at Rockefeller Center, where she unveiled an inch-thick stack of e-mails in which her husband and Magnane discuss romantic liaisons, declare love for each other and engage in kinky sex talk."

Former teacher says Benicia school district wronged her, wants retribution

Vallejo Times Herald - Former teacher says Benicia school district wronged her, wants retribution: "A former Benicia teacher says she was arrested, humiliated and lost her home, her livelihood and her health because of false accusations made against her by the Benicia school district. So, she's suing.

Claiming her civil rights were violated, Laurie Flanagan filed the $5.5 million lawsuit in Solano County Superior Court on Nov. 1, but the parties involved were only served papers in the case this week, Flanagan and her lawyer said.

Neither Janice Adams, the Benicia Unified School District's current superintendent, nor its former one, Shalee Cunningham, who is named in the lawsuit, would comment on the case.

A licensed teacher since 1974, Laurie Flanagan said her problems with the district began about three years ago.

Flanagan, who said she worked in various capacities at the district for seven years, said she had taught the district's sole adult English as a second language class for more than two years when the trouble started."

Judge rules in deputy's case

Appalachian News Express: "A Mingo County judge sided with the Mingo Civil Service Commission in a case involving a duputy's suspension.

Circuit Court Judge Michael Thornsbury upheld the commission's decision to reinstate Sgt. R.G. Messer to his position with the sheriff's department. Messer was indefinitely suspended after he was accused of attempting to obtain payment for overtime he did not work.

In a decision rendered Sept. 19, 2006, the civil service commission reinstated Messer, who had been on an indefinite suspension since April 2006. The commission found that Sheriff Lonnie Hannah had not justified the suspension of Messer, who he claimed charged overtime for driving back and forth from the West Virginia State Police Academy in Institute, W.Va., when Messer had, in fact, rented a motel room there.

Messer, through his attorney C. Christopher Younger, alleged that Hannah had suspended him in retaliation for a grievance Messer had filed with a fellow deputy, Sgt. Randy Hatfield, concerning a lieutenant's exam."

Sheriff's Office puts special demands on its wireless network

Sheriff's Office puts special demands on its wireless network: "Like everything else, modern police work is increasingly data intensive and network dependent. But when you are supporting 450 police cruisers spread over a county of 876 square miles (including 214 square miles of water), and 'mobile' sometimes means delivering vital data to a vehicle in hot pursuit at more than 100 mph, and lost data could mean the difference between life and death in extreme situations, 'rigorous' gains extra emphasis in terms of network performance.

That is exactly the environment in which Mac Magruder, deputy sheriff and MIS director for the Escambia County (Fla.) Sheriff's Office, works. Escambia County includes Pensacola and has a total population of approximately 315,000. The Sheriff's Office has 1,100 employees and is the police force, runs the county jail and also handles more routine tasks such as process serving and prisoner transport."

Officer down - The Brewton Standard

Archives: Story: "Shirley Pettis is getting ready to take a big step. In a few weeks she will retire from the Escambia County Sheriff's Department. She is planning to devote her time to grandchildren, fishing and hunting. She might even put in a little time taking life easy, but for now, she is trying to tie up the loose ends and find a time when she can walk out the door for the last time.

Pettis went to work in the sheriff's office when Tim Hawsey took office. She worked in the substation in Atmore.

“He was the minister of music at First Baptist Church of Atmore, which we attend,” she said. “In 1984 I went full-time and began to travel to Brewton every day to work in the main office.”

She came to Brewton as the sheriff's chief clerk. She went to reserve academy in 1985 and graduated from Southeast Alabama Police Academy in 1987. She graduated as a deputy sheriff.

“I don't know if it is true, but I was told that I was the first woman to be certified as a deputy in Escambia County,” Pettis said. “It helped me with my work a lot. I could serve warrants, civil papers and search warrants. I also was able to work with the court and do other things that required a certified officer. Of course I still continued to work here in the office, too."

St. Joseph County "Catastrophe" Looms

WNDU - News: "St. Joseph County officials are having a hard time finding words to describe the seriousness of their future financial situation.

Property tax revenues are projected to drop by $15-million over the next three years, by the county's own estimates.

That would force the county to cut its budget by 25-percent.

Right now, there's an assumption that anything that can be cut, will probably will be cut.

That could mean everything from closing the parks, to consolidating township fire departments, to taking police officers off the street.

“Statutorily the sheriff is only required to provide jailing and to service the courts and civil papers,” says County Commissioner Mark Dobson. “Technically road patrol by St. Joseph County Sheriff's Department is not required by the Indiana constitution.”"

Input sought on county PD

Input sought on county PD - Martinsville Bulletin: "The Henry County Board of Supervisors wants public input on whether it should create a county police department.

That was the sentiment at Tuesday’s board meeting where a report showed that splitting the sheriff’s office’s law enforcement functions off into a county police department would bring in more state funding, not less.

Law enforcement functions include criminal investigation and traffic enforcement.

County Administrator Benny Summerlin told the board that even though historically other counties have lost funds when they transferred the sheriff’s office law enforcement functions to a police department, Henry County appears to be in a different situation.

State officials told him, he said, that although the county would lose $1.9 million in State Compensation Board funding, it would gain about $2.3 million in state “599” funding for police departments, for a net gain of $400,000.

“I was shocked,” he said."

Lovejoy leaders decide it's time to call the cops

Lovejoy leaders decide it's time to call the cops | ajc.com: "Nestled in the Clayton County panhandle, Lovejoy has never had a police force in its 116 years.

Yet with subdivisions sprouting like dandelions, a Starbucks in place and a Home Depot on the way, city leaders and residents say it's time for a regular police presence in Lovejoy.

That time could be as soon as next month.

The City Council has chosen the Clayton County Police Department to make regular patrols in Lovejoy, rebuffing a proposal from the Clayton County Sheriff's Office.

Both organizations made proposals to patrol the city of about 3,000.

Mayor Joe Murphy urged the council pick the Police Department for several reasons, including that the county's 911 system dispatches county police officers — not sheriff's deputies — to answer calls for help.

"The Police Department in the county is set up to handle our case for what we're trying to do on the street," Murphy said.

In most places with a county police force, such as Cobb, DeKalb, Fulton and Gwinnett, the sheriff mainly runs the jail, guards the courthouse and serves civil papers.

Petition backs recall of LaMoure’s sheriff

· IN-FORUM ·: "Petitions are circulating in LaMoure County to recall the recently elected sheriff, Robert Fernandes.

“It is just that he is totally unqualified to be a sheriff,” said Stacey Ellingson of Edgeley, one of the organizers of the petition drive. “It would be like letting a doctor practice while he is going to school.”

Fernandes released information during his campaign stating he served on a “ship’s security team” in the Navy and completed the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Academy in California.

He did not work in the law enforcement field, but as a carpenter in Southern California, before moving in 1995 to Jud, where he also did construction work."

Slain woman planned to divorce husband

Slain woman planned to divorce husband: "Chrissy Predham Newman had divorce papers served on her estranged husband just two days before she was found slain in her St. John's apartment, according to an affidavit filed by her mother in Newfoundland's Supreme Court.

In the affidavit, filed Friday, Yvonne Harvey says the former Ottawa woman's estranged husband, Raymond Newman, was served with court documents on Jan. 19 in which her daughter filed for divorce, custody of their child and a division of assets.

The court documents also contained an order that Mr. Newman vacate and relinquish his interest in the family home, and included allegations that Mr. Newman was abusive.

None of the allegations contained in the affidavit have been proven in court, and attempts yesterday to reach Mr. Newman and his lawyer, Randy Piercey, were unsuccessful."

House Panels Work to Resolve Former Rep. Cunningham Subpoenas

FOXNews.com - House Panels Work to Resolve Former Rep. Cunningham Subpoenas - Politics | Republican Party | Democratic Party | Political Spectrum: "Three House committees subpoenaed in connection with the bribery case against jailed former Rep. Randy 'Duke' Cunningham are trying to reach an agreement with federal prosecutors allowing the subpoenas to be withdrawn.

Wednesday was the latest deadline for the Appropriations, Armed Services and Intelligence committees to respond to document subpoenas issued by the federal grand jury in San Diego that has been considering evidence in a defense contracting investigation stemming from the Cunningham case.

However, House lawyers have asked for more time and are working to negotiate a response that satisfies prosecutors so that they will withdraw the subpoenas, a Democratic aide said Wednesday. The aide spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the negotiations.

A spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's Office in San Diego did not immediately return a call for comment.

Cunningham, a San Diego-area Republican, was sentenced in March to more than eight years in prison for accepting $2.4 million in bribes in exchange for steering government business to defense contractors."

Tyson subpoenas school system records

Tyson subpoenas school system records: "Mobile County District Attorney John Tyson Jr. confirmed Tuesday evening that he sent 'about a half dozen' subpoenas of records to the Mobile County Public School System as part of an investigation into allegations of improper solicitation of funds.

'That's all I'm comfortable saying right now,' Tyson said, adding that he sent the subpoenas over to the central offices at Barton Academy on Friday and that by Tuesday, he had received the requested documents.

'We're going to read them,' Tyson said. 'I'll tell you more when I know more.'"
