Driver who fled to Thailand following fatal hit-and-run enters no-contest plea

BY MARY BETH ALMOND malmond@candgnews.com

OAKLAND TOWNSHIP — An Oakland Township woman who fled to Thailand following a fatal hit-andrun crash on New Year’s Day has pleaded no contest, according to court records.

Tubtim “Sue” Howson, 57, of Oakland Township, entered the no contest plea June 14 in Oakland County Circuit Court to a felony charge of failing to stop at the scene of a serious personal injury accident, meaning she will avoid trial.

In a criminal complaint filed Feb. 6, the Howson FBI said that Howson flew to Thailand two days after she struck and killed 22-year-old Benjamin Kable on Rochester Road in Oakland Township.

According to the complaint, Kable was fatally struck by a vehicle while walking in the southbound lane of Rochester Road, near

Shelby police prepared to enforce hands-free distracted driving law

BY KARA SZYMANSKI kszymanski@candgnews.com

SHELBY TOWNSHIP — A new law involving cellphones and driving might have people changing their minds about using their phones by hand while driving later this week.

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer signed handsfree distracted driving bills into law June 7 that will make it illegal, starting June 30, for motorists to drive while holding their cellphones to talk, text, use their cameras or more.

Michigan law already addressed texting and driving, but one of the new bills add-

ed watching or recording videos and using social media, plus other uses, to the list of barred behaviors for people operating motor vehicles.

The law makes exceptions to hold a cellphone while driving for emergency personnel, such as police and firefighters, while performing their official duties, and for em-

ployees or contractors responding to a public utility emergency. There is also an exception for members of the public to hold their phones while driving to call 911, a health care provider or other emergency services agency to report an emergency.

Drivers may use hands-free technology See DISTRACTED on page 10A

BY KARA SZYMANSKI kszymanski@candgnews.com

UTICA —The Utica Public Library is hosting its summer reading program, and readers have the chance to earn prizes for reading between June 12 and July 22.

Children not yet a year old through those in the second grade will earn a prize for every six books read, and children in grades three and up will earn a prize for every 100 minutes of reading. To get a prize, fill out reading logs and visit the library. Participants will also fill out tickets to be entered into the weekly and grand prize drawings.

There are also bingo activity sheets that can be completed for a prize, and participants can attend free events throughout the summer to earn tickets for grand prizes.

excitement: FANS CELEBRATE THE PONTIAC FIERO’S 40TH ANNIVERSARY

PAST EMPLOYEES INVITED TO SPECIAL REUNION

BY MARIA ALLARD allard@candgnews.com

PONTIAC — Forty years ago, the Pontiac Fiero drove off the lot for the first time and found its niche in the sports car community.

Although the two-seater car was only in production for five years, from 1983 to 1988, there are still Pontiac Fiero owners nationwide.

To acknowledge the 40-year anniversary of the Pontiac Fiero this year, a celebration will be held July 12-16 in Pontiac.

Presented by M1 Concourse, the celebration will bring home the last Pontiacs made in Pontiac, including the very last car ever produced there — a 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT. Other cars that will be on-site include PPG Pace Cars, the 2+2 Fiero prototype, other Fiero prototypes and special cars from the GM Heritage Center collection.

There will be a collection of Fiero vehicles on display.

Members of the Pontiac Motorsports Division, Pontiac Design Studio and Pontiac Engineering are expected to attend.

The Pontiac Transportation Museum, also a sponsor of the event, will collect oral history testimonies to document individual stories. The three original 1984 Indy Pace Cars are confirmed to be at the event, marking the first time all three cars have been together since race day nearly 40 years ago.

Event organizers have set aside July 15 to hold a special See PONTIAC FIERO on page 8A

Howson from page 1A

Whims Lane, at approximately 5:49 a.m.

Jan. 1. A resident of Shelby Township, Kable was a student at Michigan State University and was home for the holiday break.

Witnesses saw the fatal crash and told police the driver continued south, turned around to go north and “remained in the area for a short period of time” after the crash before eventually fleeing the scene.

Paramedics from the Oakland Township Fire Department pronounced Kable dead at the scene.

Howson was reportedly on her way to work at a Birmingham grocery store when she fatally struck Kable and fled, according to reports. Two days later, she bought a one-way ticket to Thailand, landing there on or around Jan. 5 after making connecting flights.

On Jan. 14, Howson was found by police in the western province of Ratchaburi.

The Sheriff ’s Office said she was picked up by authorities in Thailand, and she was taken into custody when her return flight landed in the United States. She was brought to San Francisco on a federal charge of unlawful flight to avoid prosecution, punishable

by up to five years in prison, which cleared the way for her return to Michigan March 15 to face charges in the traffic crash.

At press time, Howson was scheduled to be sentenced at 1 p.m. July 26. She faces up to five years in prison and is being held in the Oakland County Jail on a $1 million bond.

Howson’s attorney, Jalal Jamil Dallo could not be reached for comment at press time.

Organizers have invited past employees who worked on the Pontiac Fiero to attend the Fiero Project Reunion from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. July 15 at the Auburn Hills Marriott in Pontiac.

Pontiac Fiero from page 4A

reunion for all the employees who once worked on the Fiero. The Fiero Project Reunion will be held from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Auburn Hills Marriott in Pontiac.

The Midwest Fiero Clubs Region of the Antique Automobile Club of America (AACA) is reaching out to all past workers — from plant workers to project engineers — to attend. Former employees are welcome to attend the Distinguished Speaker event at the Crofoot Ballroom Hall on July 13.

‘We share our interests, passions and friendships.’

Jennifer Goss and Fred Bartemeyer are co-chairing the anniversary celebration.

“We’d like to get the word out about the event,” said Goss, who resides in Staunton, Virginia. “The reunion is to gather and to reminisce.”

So far, 25 people — including people from Washington state, New England and Arizona — have responded, but organizers hope to attract many more.

Goss, who will be in attendance, grew up in a family of Fiero enthusiasts.

“It’s always been a fun sports car that has a great community,” Goss said.

Her dad, Jim Gilbert, even won his own black Fiero after participating in a contest.

“He was very excited,” Goss remembered of her dad, who died in 2020. “He loved the car.”

Her dad’s winning car is now a keepsake.

“I still have it,” Goss said.

There are still Fiero buffs in the U.S. and around the world who have hung onto their cars from the ’80s and are collectors like Goss and her husband, who have eight Fieros.

“It brings back memories of earlier times in their lives,” Goss said. “The young people,

they know how timeless they are. The Fiero has aged well.”

The Midwest Fiero Clubs Region AACA current members include Heartland Fiero Club; Michigan Fiero Club; Wisconsin Fiero Fanatics; Mid-Atlantic Fiero Owners Association; Northern Illinois Fiero Enthusiasts; Kansas City Fiero Owners Group; Minnesota Fieros Forever; Midwest Fieros; North Texas Fiero Club; and Mid-America Fieros. The 10 clubs collaborate to promote and preserve the Pontiac Fiero and the Fiero Community.

“We share our interests, passions and friendships,” said Bartemeyer, Midwest Fiero Clubs Region AACA president. “It’s to bring everyone together to have a central resource.

We’re a small, close-knit community.”

Members don’t have to own a Fiero to join.

“You just have to have the interest,” said Bartemeyer, of Davenport, Iowa. “A lot of people join our club to help find them a good car, specifically the Pontiac Fiero.”

Bartemeyer bought his first Fiero for $12,000 when he graduated from high school in 1985 at age 18. He saved enough money over the years shoveling snow and mowing lawns. He also took out a small loan to help with the purchase.

“I’ve been into cars my entire life. As a young kid with a brand-new car, it was very exciting. It was an incredible experience,” Bartemeyer said. “I took people for rides. It got a lot of use. It was a lot of fun.”

One year later, Bartemeyer traded in his ’85 model for a new 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT when they came on the market.

“I had to have one,” he said.

To date, Bartemeyer owns 26 Fieros, including the 1986 GT model. He’ll bring eight of them to display at next month’s anniversary celebration.

To register for the reunion and for more information on all the 40-year celebrations, visit fiero40th.com. T-shirts are guaranteed only to attendees who register before July 1.

Stevenson MADE teacher named Educator of the Year SHELBY TOWNSHIP — Mark LaCombe, a Stevenson High School Manufacturing, Automation and Design Engineering teacher, was named Educator of the Year by the Michigan Design Council and was recognized at the Michigan Design Prize 2023 Awards Ceremony on June 7.

His ninth grade students have been competing in the Michigan Design Council’s Michigan Design Prize competition for five years.

“We have competed, and done very well, in the Michigan Design Prize challenge for the past four years; it fits so well with what we believe in for our MADE students — finding and solving real world, relevant problems for an authentic audience,” LaCombe said via email.

He said his favorite part about teaching is seeing students accomplish things that they didn’t think they could.

“I also really enjoy when students find their passions and work on projects that are meaningful for them and they take pride in,” he said.

“For our students being in 9th grade, the things that he is able to get them to do is far beyond their years,” Stevenson High School Associate Principal Alison Hildebrand stated in a press release.

Joshua Lee, Stevenson High School MADE Class of 2023, said LaCombe really has innovated and helped the MADE program to grow.

“Overall, he is a great teacher who really, genuinely cares about each of his students and wants them to feel like they are an equal.

Mr. LaCombe has done so many things for our Academy,” Lee said in an email.

He said LaCombe guides the way that the program runs.

“Honestly, I don’t think I would be as far as I am in life and in school without him as my 9th grade teacher,” Lee said in a press release.

The Michigan Design Council works to make Michigan a place that industrial design professionals and businesses choose as their home. The 2023 Michigan Design Prize challenge asked students to design a product that promotes Michigan’s waterways with a focus on the needs of school-age children and teenagers.

For LaCombe, the Educator of the Year recognition applies to the whole Stevenson MADE program and its staff.

Stevenson MADE had two Michigan Design Prize finalists who were recognized at the event: Meghan Landino, who worked on her project independently, and Gjon Lulgjuraj and Sierra Savage.

to use their cellphones. Hands-free systems are generally voice operated and can provide mapping for trips, make calls and change radio stations, for example.

The new law makes it illegal to use a cellphone by hand while temporarily stopped at a red light or stop sign, which the new law by definition still considers to be operating a vehicle. The new law does not consider being lawfully parked to be operating a vehicle.

Sgt. Mark Benedettini, from the Shelby Township Police Department, said via email that distracted driving has been a big issue in the community for quite some time.

“We have seen a large uptick over the

years of crashes that were caused by distracted driving. This law will help to reduce those types of crashes, along with injuries and even deaths associated with distracted driving crashes,” he said.

Shelby Township police will be enforcing the new law.

“Our officers on the streets will be enforcing this law once it takes effect. We will also be participating with the Michigan State Police and other local jurisdictions throughout the year and have officers on special details specifically looking for distracted drivers,” he said.

Utica Police Chief Matthew Kaluzny could not be reached for comment before press time.

Physical injury and disease are other consequences of trafficking exploitation. Substantial portions of persons who are subject to trafficking are under the age of eighteen. Numerous studies exist outlining the various aspects of human trafficking including trafficking within the United States warranting the adoption of ordinance provisions in order to assist in detecting possible human trafficking.

Chapter 14, Article 6 of the Charter Township of Shelby Code of Ordinances may be known and may be cited as the Charter Township of Shelby “Massage Establishment and Spa Licensing and Regulation Ordinance.”

Finally, the Michigan Legislature declared that the practice of massage therapy is an activity affecting the public interest and involving the health, safety, and welfare of the public.

MCL 333.17951 et seq. was enacted to prohibit a person from engaging in the practice of massage therapy or using certain titles without being licensed under the Public Health Code; to create the Michigan Board of Massage Therapy; to establish minimum educational and experience standards for licensure; and to require continuing education courses as a condition for license renewal. The acquisition of a massage establishment license is a privilege, not a right. The enactment and enforcement of this chapter relates to municipal concerns and is a valid exercise of the township’s police powers.

Honors from page 1A

based nonprofit program’s top students receive scholarships and career mentors receive recognition for their dedication and service.

This year, four local business professionals were recognized for their five years of career mentoring service and 18 metro Detroit students were awarded a total of $25,000 in scholarships.

Beverly Maddox, principal consultant of BFM Consulting Group in Shelby Township, was one of the four mentors recognized.

Career mentors are local businesspeople who volunteer with Winning Futures to help students figure out what they’ll do after high school, and to teach them life and job-readiness skills needed for success.

In addition, Onelya William, from Community High School in Sterling Heights, part of the Warren Consolidated Schools, and whom Maddox mentored, received a $3,000 scholarship toward her future education through the Cupp-Hamilton Scholarships.

William said that she was ecstatic after hearing that she had been recognized and was chosen to receive a scholarship.

“I still can’t believe it to be honest. I’m so grateful for receiving this scholarship. It’s truly one of the best things that happened to me,” she said via email.

She said it will be going toward college, mostly books and classes.

She said her mentor, Maddox, was able to help her in many different ways that will boost her future.

“Beverly was so sweet; she would always put a smile on my face even when I was having a bad day. She also helped me and guided me towards what I wanted to do. She also believed in me even when I was having doubts about my future. She was the best mentor ever,” she said.

She said the Winning Futures program was a great experience.

“I think it’s one of the best programs, because it truly helps to guide you to the future that you want and it gives you opportunities,” she said.

Maddox started career mentoring with Winning Futures in 2018 at Cass Technical High School in Detroit.

“Being recognized for five years of career mentoring service is truly humbling and brings me a great sense of pride. To have the opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of students through mentoring is a privilege that I hold dear. I am deeply grateful for the recognition and the chance to contribute to the mission of Winning Futures. It has been an incredible journey

C & G Newspapers publishes 21 papers in Macomb, Oakland and Wayne counties: thus far, and I eagerly anticipate continuing to be a part of this meaningful organization and mentoring more students in the years ahead,” she said in an email.

She said that as a mentor, she finds the scholarships and program offered by Winning Futures to be truly remarkable.

“I genuinely believe that every school and student should have the privilege of accessing such an impactful initiative. The opportunities provided through this program have the potential to transform lives and empower young individuals to reach their full potential. Moreover, the provision of scholarships demonstrates a deep commitment to leveling the playing field and ensuring that financial constraints do not hinder deserving students from pursuing higher education,” said Maddox.

She said that by alleviating the burden of college expenses, these scholarships enable talented individuals who might otherwise be unable to afford it to fulfill their academic aspirations.

She said that being a mentor is something that she finds inspiring.

“Personally, I am inspired by the holistic approach of Winning Futures, which not only focuses on financial assistance, but also provides invaluable guidance and mentorship. I am wholeheartedly impressed by their commitment to empowering students through scholarships and a transformative program. It is my sincere hope that more organizations and institutions adopt similar initiatives to provide equitable opportunities for students across the board,” she said.

She said the experience of working with William has been very rewarding.

“When I first met her, she faced challenges and uncertainties in navigating college due to limited resources,” Maddox said.

“However, witnessing her transformation throughout our mentorship has been truly remarkable and inspiring. With the support of the Winning Futures scholarship, Onelya received the essential financial assistance she needed, which played a vital role in boosting her confidence.”

Maddox said it has been a privilege to witness William’s growth from cautious and uncertain to confident and determined.

“From delivering an impactful commencement speech to achieving honors and securing her college acceptance, Onelya has demonstrated her resilience and determination. I am exceptionally proud of her progress, and I have no doubt that she will continue to excel and make a significant positive impact in her academic and personal pursuits,” she said.

Article V, Section 26-152 of the Code of Ordinances, Charter Township of Shelby, Michigan is hereby amended to add the following section 107 as a local amendment to the 2015 International Fire Code to read as follows: 107.2.1. Test and inspection records. Beginning January 1, 2024, all inspection and test reports relating to the requirements of this Code shall be electronically transmitted to the Fire Department within ten (10) days, through an electronic information data manager designated by the Township to facilitate the collection and transmission of such reports. The reports shall be in a format designated by the electronic information data manager.

107.2.1.1.Registration required. Effective January 1, 2024 every service provider shall be registered with, and approved by, the Fire Marshal and comply with this subsection in order to perform any inspections and/or tests within the Township. No fee shall be assessed for registering as required by this subsection. Failure to comply with this subsection shall be punishable first by a written warning notice, followed for subsequent violations by the issuance of a municipal civil infraction punishable as set forth in Section 1 of the Township Code. The Fire Chief shall designate, and the electronic information data manager shall advise each service provider and affected entities or properties of, the inspections and tests for which the requirements of this subsection will apply. By way of example and not limitation, the requirements of this subsection will apply to fire alarm inspections, fire pump tests and inspections or testing of sprinkler systems. The Fire Chief may only waive the electronic reporting requirements of this subsection for cases of extreme hardship outside the control of the company or entity that performed the inspection and/or test.

107.2.1.2.Approved service providers. Effective January 1, 2024, every business subject to fire inspection and/or tests within the Township shall utilize a service provider that has registered with, and been approved by, the Fire Marshal. A list of such providers shall be made available at no charge upon request by a business within the Township and will be periodically updated on the Township’s website. Inspections and/or tests that are conducted in violation of this subsection shall not be accepted or deemed valid for purposes of compliance with the Code. A service provider may only be disapproved or removed from the approved registrations for good cause, which includes but is not limited to, lack of technological capability to comply with this subsection; refusal to comply with this subsection; a history of noncompliance without reliable assurance of future compliance; indebtedness to the Township’s property maintenance violations; convictions, pleas, or actions involving fraud or moral turpitude; and such other good cause as the Fire Chief may establish in an operating guideline and which is reasonably related to the protection of the public health, safety and welfare.

Section 2. SEVERABILITY If any section, subsection, clause, phrase or portion of this Ordinance is for any reason held invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, such portion shall be deemed a separate, distinct, and independent portion of this Ordinance, and such holding shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance.

Section 3. REPEAL All ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict with this Ordinance are hereby repealed.

Section 4. EFFECTIVE DATE This Ordinance shall be effective immediately upon date of publication hereof.

CERTIFICATION I hereby certify the foregoing is a true and complete copy of Ordinance No. 296 duly adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Charter Township of Shelby at a Regular Meeting held on June 20, 2023, pursuant to and in full compliance with the Open Meetings Act, being Act 267, Public Acts of Michigan, 1976, as amended, and that the minutes of said meeting were kept and will be made available as required by said Act. __________________________________ STANLEY T.
