Hensley: ‘I didn’t kill John Carpenter’ Joseph Hensley says he didn’t kill John Carpenter and he’s prepared to take his chances with a jury. Hensley sat down for an exclusive interview with The Brown County Press at the Clermont County Jail on July 13. The 45 minute conversation covered a number of topics, including allegations by Hensley that he is being “set up” for the Carpenter murder and that he is being punished for recanting his testimony during the trial of Dallas Tincher last January. “That man was alive when I left him that morning”, Hensley said of Carpenter. Hensley was arrested in April of 2010 for the murder of Carpenter. Carpenter was shot once in the back of the head in his Aberdeen home. His body was discovered
by the daughter of his girlfriend when she came home from school. Dallas Tincher was arrested along with Hensley and Hensley’s girlfriend, Sarah Clemens. All were originally charged with Aggravated Murder and faced the death penalty, until Brown County Prosecutor Jessica Little filed superceding indictments. Clemens ended up pleading guilty to Obstruction of Justice charges in July of 2010 and was sentenced to three years in prison. The charges were reduced as part of a plea bargain that Clemens would testify against Hensley and Tincher. Clemens currently has a motion before Common Pleas Judge Scott Gusweiler for release after one year in prison, which was also part of her plea bargain. Tincher was convicted of hiring Hensley to shoot Carpenter, and was sentenced
in March of 2011. Hensley struck a plea bargain to with Brown County Prosecuting Attorney Jessica Little to testify against Tincher in exchange for a recommended sentence of 15 years to life in prison and removal of the death penalty. Hensley testified during Tincher’s trial that he shot and killed Carpenter at Tincher’s direction. Hensley said during the interview with the Press that he was fitted with a “shock strap” on his leg before leaving the Brown County Jail. He said he was instructed to “say what he was supposed to” on the witness stand and if he didn’t, “someone will be there with a finger on the button.” Hensley said that a deputy stood against the back wall of the courtroom as he testified and that “his hand never left that button.” Brown County Sheriff’s Office Chief Deputy John
Wright being moved BY Wayne Gates The Brown County Press Ohio Division of Wildlife Officer Allan Wright is being reassigned to duties “outside of Brown County”, according to ODOW Chief David Lane. He said Wright’s transfer to the ODOW Xenia office should be effective “within the next couple of weeks”. Lane said he is making the move, which he referred to as a lateral transfer, out of consideration for Wright’s family. “His kids are getting picked on in school because of his situation, and whatever the outcome of that, his kids are innocent”, Lane said. The “situation” Lane is referring to is an investigation into Wright’s actions that has been ongoing since April of 2010. Lane said Wright is currently working as a Wildlife Officer because he’s not facing any charges and is innocent until proven guilty. “If an investigation shows that he did something wrong, I’ll take care of it”, Lane said. “This process sooner or later will work itself out and we’ll deal with it.” Wright was suspended in April of 2010 along with five other Division of Wildlife employees after an investigation by the Ohio Inspector General’s Office. The others included Division of Wildlife Chief David Graham and Assistant Chief Randy Miller, who are both now retired. Human Resources Administrator Michele WardTackett, Law Enforcement Administrator James Lehman and District 5 Manager, Todd Haines were also suspended and remain employed by the ODOW. After a five month long investigation the IG Office

Schadle flatly denied that any such action took place. “Hensley was fitted with a shock belt, which is standard procedure when an inmate with a history of violence is present in court”, Schadle said. Schadle said that Hensley was not in shackles or handcuffs while he testified and the shock belt was in place to maintain control over him. Schadle said it would be impossible to shock Hensley to try and control his testimony because such a shock “would knock him out of the witness stand and it would be extremely obvious to everyone.” Tincher was originally scheduled to be sentenced in January, but less than an hour before the sentencing, Tincher Attorney Gary Rosenhoffer received a letter from Hensley recanting his confession that he killed Carpenter. As a result, Rosenhoffer CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

found that Wright let Eric Vaughn, a friend of his from South Carolina, use his Ohio address to obtain a resident hunting license in 2006. The IG report says “This act resulted in producing a fraudulent hunting license and deprived Wildlife of additional revenue. Additionally, Officer Wright checked in the deer killed by Eric Vaughn, producing another false document when Wright listed his home address as Vaughn’s address on the harvest report.” Vaughn is a South Carolina Wildlife Officer. He saved 106 dollars by paying 19 dollars for a resident permit instead of 125 dollars for a non-resident one. The report continues, saying that Wright's superiors "ignored the criminal violation of falsification and decided to handle the violation with an administrative investigation." State law requires state employees to report possible criminal activity to the proper
authorities. Instead, Wildlife administrators classified Wright’s violation as a “Failure of Good Behavior” and issued him a verbal reprimand. The IG report continued, saying “Wildlife administrators said they never recognized or considered Wright’s actions could be criminal.” The conclusion of the Executive Summary of the IG report states “We find Officer Wright committed an act of wrongdoing. We also find that Wildlife administrators committed wrongful acts or omissions by failing to properly investigate Officer Wright.” Brown County Prosecuting Attorney Jessica Little made the decision to indict Wright and those above him in the Division of Wildlife after receiving a copy of the IG report. “They ignored criminal activity and tried to sweep it under the rug”, Little said in April of 2010.

BCGH taking steps to improve patient care BY Wayne Gates The Brown County Press It’s a new day at Brown County General Hospital. That’s the attitude from staff members who are a little over a month into the transition to ownership by Southwest Healthcare. Now that the sale is complete, Chief Executive Officer Joan Phillips said it’s now time for employees to roll up their sleeves. “Our efforts now are going to be building what the community needs as far as servic-
es. We are here to be a part of the community and to provide the services they need”, Phillips said. BCGH is in need of a few more people to provide those services. Despite hiring a number of patient care staff members, the “help wanted” sign is still out. Case Management Director Danielle Richards said the hospital is looking to hire nurses who can do it all. “We want to build a staff of full time nurses that are cross CONTINUED ON PAGE 10
It could be the end of an era for residents of the Village of St. Martin if the auditor of the State of Ohio follows through with plans to dissolve the village either voluntarily or by action of the Attorney General. According to Brown County Budget Commission member Doug Green, the Village of St. Martin has been an ongoing concern for the county. St. Martin is located in Perry Township in Brown County, just over one mile from state Route 50, near Fayetteville. It’s land area is approximately 1.16 square miles with a population of less than 100. “As I see it,” said Green, “the number one issue is that no one will run for office in the Village of St. Martin. There hasn’t been a mayor voted in since 1998.” Green said “The village does have a fiscal officer, Sue Spradlin, but with no council or mayor, her authority has its limits.” During the July 13 meeting of the Fayetteville Village

Village of Sardinia receives restitution from former clerk/treasurer, convicted of theft By Martha Jacob The Brown County Press Residents of the Village of Sardinia can finally put the past where it belongs, according to Sardinia Mayor Todd Bumbalough. Bumbalough told council at its July 11 meeting that the village had received a restitution check for $10,000 from Julie Shannon. Shannon, the former village clerk/treasurer, was sentenced to three years in prison after being convicted of three felony charges of tampering
with records, theft in office and identity theft in February 2010. Shannon was also ordered to pay $9,675 to the Village of Sardinia, which took place between July 1, 2006 and January 10, 2008. “We received this check for $10,000 from that Shannon ordeal,” Bumbalough stated. “Now this should end that whole fiasco. We can put it behind us. I’m glad that it’s over. Karen (Miller, fiscal officer) has deposited the check so now lets move forward.”
In other actions at the meeting, council approved the purchase of the old boarded up motel that sits directly in the middle of the village. “We will use $20,000 from our ‘Revitalization Grant’ money,” said Tim Mock, village administrator. “The only issue at this point is, the current owner still owes $24,188 on the property and he said he won’t take more that a $700 loss. “That means the village has to come up with the other $3,500 to make up the differCONTINUED ON PAGE 10

Winchester Police make three drug busts Chief Greg Caudill of the Winchester Police Department sent out the following information regarding three recent incidents. On July 9, Caudill initiated a traffic stop on State Route 32 (SR 32) in which he came in contact with Angela Spires, 21, of West Union. During the stop, he found that Spires had on her three syringes of what is believed to be heroin. Spires had two juveniles, ages 2 and 4, in the car with her along with James Mikey Spires, 32, of West Union, and Brian Long, 37, of West Union.

traffic stop on SR 32. During the stop, Caudill located prescription medication and six marijuana plants, approximately 3 ft. tall, that were being cultivated as well as numerous items of drug paraphernalia. He also found two small juveniles asleep in the back seat where the marijuana plants were found. Straight has charges pending at this time. And on July 14, Caudill said that the Winchester Police Department and the Adams County Sheriffs Office, with assistance from the Peebles Police Department, served a search warrant at 41 Sugar St. in Peebles.

Portions of OH-125 near G’Town to be closed for four days at end of July A culvert replacement project has been scheduled on state Route 125 in Brown County, and the route will be closed for four days later this month.

Ripley Fire Department and Brown County General Hospital joining forces to ‘Answer the call for the cure’
The Ripley Fire Department is used to answering calls, but this one is a little different. The department is joining forces with Brown County General Hospital for an event called “Answering the Call for the Cure”. The event is a fundraiser for Susan G. Komen for the Cure, an organization dedicated to fighting breast cancer. “Everyone in the community helps us out when we need it and this is a way to reach out to people in the community who are suffering from cancer. We’re trying to help everyone that helps us”, said Justin Germann of the Ripley Fire Department. He also encouraged everyone in the area to attend the event, which is set for Saturday, Sept. 10. “Come out and have fun. We’re looking for volunteers to come out and help us.” The event will include a two hour “Zumbathon, a 5K walk/run, 18 mile and 10K bicycle races and Breast Cancer Education events. The cost is twenty dollars, and participants are asked to register by Aug. 10. Those who register will receive a t-shirt, food and refreshments and be able to participate in a post-event raffle.
For more information, go to www.facebook.com/ripleyfiredepartment or call (937) 392-4737. The first five hundred dollars for the event came from Brown County General Hospital on July 13. CEO Joan Phillips said events like this one fit right in with the direction that Southwest Healthcare wants to go in Brown County. “We believe healthcare is a team approach. Our desire is to work with the community to provide the best healthcare possible and the chance to work with the Ripley Fire Department was very exciting for us.” Phillips added that the fire department can count on more than just a donation. “We’re looking forward to getting out and participating in the event. Our staff and administration will be there to help.” She said that representatives from the hospital will be at the event to pass out information on cancer screenings and to help answer help answer questions anyone may have about breast cancer. Phillips also said that Brown County General Hospital is part of a grant program from the Susan G. Komen Foundation that helps provide cancer screenings for low-income patients. She said the hospital is

State accredits Brown County Board of Developmental Disabilities The Brown County Board of Developmental Disabilities has been accredited by the State of Ohio for the quality services and supports it provides to people with disabilities. An accreditation certificate has been issued to the Board by the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities on June 28, 2011. The comprehensive state review was conducted earlier this year. The accreditation review is very rigorous and thorough process and takes
nearly six months to complete. A team of surveyors from the Department of Developmental Disabilities reviewed all areas of county board operations including personnel administration, services and support and the general efficiency and effectiveness of the county board. The results of the review found that the Brown County Board of Developmental Disabilities achieved substantial compliance with minimum standards and subse-
quently obtained a 3-year period of accreditation. County boards are often given at a minimum of nine months notice to prepare for the review. The preparation of an accreditation review requires many staff hours and a great deal of coordination between programs and departments. The administrator and staff of the Brown County Board of Developmental Disabilities should be commended for their efforts.

Washington, D.C. update from Senator Rob Portman U.S. Senator Rob Portman (R-Ohio) delivered a speech on the Senate floor focused on the need for substantial spending reduction in order to decrease our deficit and grow the economy. Portman believes excessive spending, not a lack of tax revenues, is the main cause for our long term economic problems and any plan to solve our debt crisis needs to address this main issue. “Until we get the fiscal house in order, it is going to be very difficult to get the economy moving. On the budget, let’s be clear. The long term problem is from soaring spending, not falling revenues…even if we keep current tax rates…those tax revenues will be well above that historic average.” *** “The point is not that we want to go into default, I hope nobody does…but…once you max out on the credit card, and you try to get a higher line of credit, you ought to look at your underlying problem, because if you don’t, you’re going to get right back into the financial problems you’re in.”
rob Portman *** “Serious times demand serious work. I was pleased when the Senate came together to cancel this week’s scheduled recess because we should be here. We pledged to return to Washington and to confront these economic challenges we talked about and the budget problems we face and I supported doing that…but this has not been a serious effort.” *** “President Obama talks about getting involved and showing true leadership. But to be honest, he hasn’t stepped up to the plate…the best example would be his own budget…it was unanimously rejected 96-0.” *** “Having tax rates chase this spending is not the solution. It won’t balance the budget. Moreover, it will not spur this sputtering economy…it won’t
employment," stated Portman. "While we hear continued rhetoric and promises of a new focus on jobs from the Obama Administration, we have not seen the commonsense actions needed to get our economy really going again. The answer doesn't lie in more government spending; Washington has already tried that. "There is a better way to get Ohio and our country working again, but it will require the Administration to realize that more regulations, more spending and higher deficits have failed to turn this economy around. Instead of biggovernment approach to health care, regulations and our fiscal crisis, a strong economic recovery and lower unemployment will require new, pro-growth policies like those we've offered as part of the Senate Republican JobsPlan.” ended Portman, who recently drafted the plan as a way to jump-start our economy. Rob Portman is a member of the United States Senate from Ohio.
ural resources. In addition, House Bill 133 stipulates the steps by which Ohio can make leases that allow for gas and oil production on land under the jurisdiction of state agencies. These important initiatives will expand investments in our local economies and widen the job pool of Ohio residents. In economically trying times, the state government must find innovative solutions to alleviate the financial strain felt by Ohio’s families. Making use of what is right in front of us and what is right under our feet should be the right of all Ohioans. As gas prices rise, other expenses simultaneously increase. For instance, our citizens end up paying more for food because the cost of transporting these products is directly related to fuel costs. Families fighting to make ends are further marginalized by this situation. I believe that House Bill 133 provides a viable answer to Ohio’s funding problems. We face an uphill battle to combat the soaring price of energy sources. The legislation allows Ohio to help itself. We need common-sense solutions that don’t involve tax raises or reliance on outside, limited funds. Through smart bills like this one, Ohio can help the middle class and enrich our state economy.
What Do You Think? What's the strangest thing you've ever eaten?
Paying the price for putting off an important task I had the honor of interviewing and writing about Mt. Orab businessman and World War II veteran Tony Niemeyer in the June 12 edition of the Press. On July 3, he passed away, four weeks to the day after we talked. He was 91 years old. The last time I saw him was when I delivered some copies of the paper to him three weeks before he died. He said “Sit down, young man!” and we chatted a bit. We had spoken for about an hour and a half during the interview the week before and if he wanted to talk a little more, I was happy to comply. After a few minutes of conversation, I shook his hand and left. Had I known it would be the last time we would speak, I would have stayed longer. Early on in the interview the week before, he asked me “How much do you know about World War II?”
Wayne Gates, editor I told him that I enjoyed studying World War II history and that I am a veteran of the United States Navy. He nodded his head in approval and seemed to open up a bit more upon hearing that. Niemeyer told me that he had never spoken about his war experiences before to anyone outside his family. When I told him I was honored to talk to him, he just waved a dismissive hand in the typical modesty that genuine war heroes seem to possess. Niemeyer was drafted in 1941 and didn’t return home until 1945. During that time,

work to get us back to work.” *** “I understand that some of my colleagues have their own approaches to this. That’s fine, let’s have the debate…there are numerous proposals to balance the budget, reform entitlements...we have too many important issues. Let’s stop fiddling while Rome burns.” ### Portman Statement On June's Unemployment Report After the release of the Bureau of Labor Statistics report today showing that the unemployment rate again increased to 9.2%, U.S. Senator Rob Portman (ROhio) noted the report is more than simply statistics, it is families that continue to struggle. "These are more than just disappointing numbers, these are families who continue to struggle to find the opportunities they need to make ends meet, and even these numbers don't paint the full picture. There are millions more who have given up searching for a job, or are working part time while trying to find full time

he fought his way across the Pacific against the Japanese as commander of a flamethrower tank battalion. Think about that for a minute. This man was in a tank that was belching flame at Japanese soldiers, at the very front of the front line. His tank was a constant target, in battle or at rest. During the day, the tanks were a constant target because the Japanese were desperate to kill them. Niemeyer spoke of having to sleep under the tank treads to prevent the Japanese from crawling underneath the tanks in the middle of the night to sabatoge them. Niemeyer won a Silver Star for climbing a cliff with a firehose on his back, exposed to fire, so he could use it to squirt Napalm on Japanese soldiers entrenched on a ridge. He also won the Bronze Star and three Purple Hearts, after getting hit by enemy gunfire three times. We often hear the cliche “The horrors of war” bandied about. But Niemeyer told me things about the fighting that I couldn’t put in the paper. It was that bad. By the time 1945 rolled around, Japanese and American soldiers were killing each other without mercy or remorse. It was some of the most brutal fighting of the war. Near the end of the interview, I asked Niemeyer again about people like him being labeled heroes. I got a lump in my throat when he gave me this reply. “I have enough faith in the American people to think that many of them today would do just what I did if the situation called for it. I believe in
America." Three weeks after the interview, I thought of Mr. Niemeyer again and decided to write him a personal note. It sat on my desk unmailed for a few days as other tasks took my attention. While driving to work, I remembered it and vowed to take it to the post office during lunch. When I arrived at work, I found out that Tony had passed away the night before. Sometimes you pay a price for putting things off. Since I can’t mail it to him, I’m going to publish it here. “Mr. Niemeyer, Thank you once again for talking to me about your wartime experiences. It was an honor to talk with you. I appreciate your willingness to look back on what must have been a difficult time and to deal with any unpleasant memories I had a part in resurrecting. You fought hard and well against an enemy who would have not treated you with any humanity at all if you had fallen into their hands. Put simply, you and your comrades in arms did what needed to be done. You left your family, endured constant hardship and danger. When you returned home, you faced a difficult readjustment. I would like to sincerely thank you for what you did over 60 years ago to preserve the freedom that my family enjoys today.” Those sentiments apply not only to Tony Niemeyer, but to every veteran who has ever faced the enemy on the field of battle. Thank you all. The article on Tony Niemeyer can be found at www.browncountypress.com under the “News” tab. It is titled “A Warrior looks back”.

One of my favorite features of Ohio is its diverse landscape. From Cleveland to Cincinnati, our state boasts urban centers as well as rural, agricultural communities. As a resident of Brown County, I harbor a special appreciation for the open spaces and fertile regions of rural Ohio. In the midst of the rich soil and rolling hills of these areas is an abundance of state-owned public lands. Every Ohioan can celebrate all that our state has to offer simply because of the vast array of terrain. Within these public lands, there is a wealth of natural resources that could benefit our citizens immensely. Currently, however, the state is not taking full advantage of their potential. Our state government needs to look for new and inventive ways to manage our assets and protect our citizens from future tax hikes. Making use of Ohio’s resources can help to reverse the funding predicament that we find ourselves in today and provide alternatives to increasing the tax burden. The recently passed House Bill 133 will ensure that the people of Ohio can benefit from the natural energy stores that dot the state landscape. To accomplish this task, the legislation creates the Oil and Gas Leasing Commission. This government entity will speak for the interests of the public by guaranteeing that public land managers have license to develop their lands. The legislation will provide avenues to expand Ohio’s manufacturing base through cultivation of our nat-

Since early June, neighbors living on Home Street in Mt. Orab gather together in Wanetta Dunn’s yard at 9 p.m. to watch her Nicodemus plants gracefully open their beautiful yellow flowers before their very eyes. Dunn has always just called the flowers the ‘Nine O’clock Plants, but their real name is the Nicodemus plant or Oenothera, the evening primrose. The Nicodemus plant got its name from the Bible. The story of Nicodemus is told in the third chapter of John, verses 1-20 of how he only went to see Jesus at night and didn’t want anybody to see him. “A cousin of mine gave me some of his seeds from his Nicodemus plants about four years ago,” Dunn explained. “He had raised them for about 10 years in Tennessee. “For what ever reason, last year they didn’t bloom, nothing at all, but this year they started blooming the first of June.” Dunn described the occurrence as fascinating to watch.
“Between 9 and 9:30 each night these tiny little buds begin to quiver,” she said with a smile, “you can actually watch them moving. They begin with a bud, about four inches long. Then they slowly open up into a beautiful yellow flower by 9:30.” Dunn said all the neighbors have been over to watch the phenomenon. The flowers are favored by both moths and bats attracting them mainly by scent. They are very fragrant. Nicodemus flowers are very bright in color and come in glowing shades of yellow and white. “The flowers stay in full bloom all night long,” she added. “Then in the morning around 8 or 9 a.m. they begin to drop off the plants. They look barren all day, then right at 9 at night, they start all over again. We have over 100 flowers every night.” Dunn said she has given away hundreds of seeds and enjoys showing off her pictures of her plants.

By Martha Jacob The Brown County Press Members of the Fayetteville Village Council discussed, at length, all the many delinquent water bills in the village during its July 13 meeting. A recommendation was made by village administrator Bob Campbell to decrease the time allotted to pay a water bill from 45 days to only 30 days or possibly less. Campbell explained that about 90 percent of the residents always pay their bill on time, but the other 10 percent are consistent late payers.

True Life Christian Church to hold VBS PandaMania on July 17-19 True Life Christian Church would like to invite you to this year’s Vacation Bible School PandaMania: Where God is wild about you.

We will be covering topics such as; God made you, God watches over you, and God loves you no matter what. This VBS program is a wonderful way to help your child to explore God’s Word in new ways. You can be sure the activities are all specially designed for mixed-age groups, so younger children won’t be in over their heads. For more information call (937) 444-3800.
“We’re sending out at least two letters to these delinquent accounts every month,” Campbell said. “Then we warn them that their water will be turned off. “I was thinking maybe if when we send out the bill the bill says right on it that they have 10 days, or 15 days or even 30 days to pay the bill, maybe we would have better luck.” Village solicitor Cecelia Potts said there was no reason the payment time couldn’t be changed as long as proper procedure was followed. Mayor Bernie Vilvins advised Campbell to design a
new bill with the new information stated right on the bill and bring it to the next council meeting for a vote. Police Chief Randy Carson told council that his departments new radar unit was complete and that new Goodyear tires that had been purchased for one of his cruisers had to be sent back. “We’ve had to have them balanced a couple of times,” Carson said, “The tires are brought through the state purchasing program and I’m sure they will be replaced and they’ll take care of it. Carson also said a couple of the air conditioners in the
cruisers were not working well and may need some hoses, because they seem to have plenty of freon. Council talked briefly to Potts about the upcoming July 18 meeting with the Brown County Commissioners, the Brown County Budget Commission, and the solicitor for the Village of St. Martin, Jay Cutrell in regard to the dissolution of St. Martin. Potts said she would certainly be in attendance of the meeting and encouraged council members to attend.
WBHS Possible steps discussed to Class of ‘96 dissolve the Village of St. reunion set The Western Brown High School class of 1996 will be Martin in Perry Township holding their 15 year reunion CONTINUED ON PAGE 6 The letter from Little included the following information; “I would like to advise you that on behalf of the Brown County Budget Commission, I sent a letter to the Auditor of State to ask them to review the status of the village of St. Martin as a legally active and constituted political subdivision. “It is quite possible that ultimately the Village of St. Martin will be dissolved either “voluntarily” or by action of the Attorney General. ....Dissolution of the Village could directly impact the boards and council because due to any unpaid taxes may be collected after the surrender of corporate
powers and all moneys or property remaining after the surrender belongs to the township...” “We’ve never really experienced anything like this before,” Green said. “The way it is now, there is no political jurisdiction at St. Martin. So at the end of the year, as Brown County Auditor, the village is showing a negative balance.” Green said the process may not be a quick one. “There will be very specific procedures we have to follow in order to put those residents back under the jurisdiction of the Perry Township Trustees.” A special meeting has been set for July 18, at 7 p.m. at the Perry Township Hall located on Route 50 to discuss the issue.

THE BIBLE Ladies and gentlemen, we are living in a day where we are in a strange situation. We are seeing the prophecies coming to pass which concern the return of Jesus Christ. In the book of Luke it states: “And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.” “Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot...” “Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.” We now have a law passed in the schools of California that boys do not have to be called boys and girls do not have to be called girls. They can dress whichever way they prefer. There was a Canadian family who recently had a baby and said that they were not going to tell anyone what gender it was. They said on the news that they were going to let the child decide whether it wants to be referred to as a boy or a girl. I thank God for men who are men and women who are women! A child needs to know the difference but pretty soon it might be hard to tell. Listen parents. Take your time to raise your children right. Love your children, discipline them; teach them. Train them up in the way they should go and help them all you can. They will need all you can do for them to get them through this life in a Christian manner. This world is getting deeper and deeper into this neutral gender teaching. There is a new revised Bible which is gender neutral. We Christians do not concur with such ideas at all. The Southern Baptist has come out against it and are recommending that their bookstores remove all of those books out of their stores across the country. This is a new NIV, owned by Mr. Murdock, who also owns much of our news media, including FOX News. It’s his Bible! People, we need to get back to God! In the book of Luke there is a parable about a certain man who had two sons. The younger one who got himself into trouble had enough sense to repent of his actions. The older one didn’t. In Luke 15:21 it tells us: “And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight...” That is a big admission. This parable represents mankind. The Bible says in Romans 3:23: “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” We all have done things that we should not have done. The younger son in this parable got himself into a situation that was not desirable. He was a
DR. CHARLES SMITH MT. ORAB BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH www.bbcmtorab.com give-me boy! Verse 12: “And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.” Notice the word, “them”. However, because of space, I want to concentrate on the younger son. He did not want to wait for his inheritance and his father, being a very gracious man, did not argue. It says: “...And he divided unto them his living.” Verse 13 states: “And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.” There are many young men and women who just cannot wait to get away from home to be on their own. It is human nature as this parable shows. However, it is wrong to be wasteful and this young man was wasteful, reckless, careless and sinful. People, young and old alike, can fall into the same category. We have gotten so far away from decency and morality and into immorality that we have almost become as the movies are. The riotous living, cursing, swearing, indecency, homosexuality and immorality of the movie industry are being played out by the American people. I think it is a pitiful situation. It is a disgrace and a curse upon a nation as wonderful as our nation! It took a great depression in the land to bring the young man in the parable to his senses and to turn from his sinful ways. What is it going to take to bring our people to their senses? What is it going to take to bring the Amercian people back to God? God the Father would be just as willing to forgive this people as the father in the parable forgave his son, if only they would turn back to Him. He is still a merciful and forgiving God but time is running out! We are living in days very similar to those of Noah and Lot.

School is still in for teachers in the Eastern Local School District The last day for students was June 1 and the last day for staff was June 2, but several staff members in the Eastern School District took advantage of a professional development opportunity close to home. Through the Warrior PRIDE grant, two sessions of professional development were offered at Eastern High School. On June 15-17 teachers, principals and paraprofessionals participated in the Quality Tools, Quality
Classrooms workshop. The workshop provided strategies that have been tested and really work in the classroom. Some of the strategies included building themes, three big rocks, goal setting and the issue bin. All of the Eastern staff members were motivated and on board to take what they learned in this class and implement the ideas next school year. On Friday afternoon, the building teams developed action plans and will continue
to meet and develop these plans over the summer so that we can have a successful roll out in August. The Eastern staff members who attended are: Valerie Krentz, Mike Bick, Lori Belcher, Dennis Riedel, Peggy Vance, Pam Hardyman, Paula Hughes, Susie Paeltz, Diana Helbling, Amy Rau, Alana Mason, Jennie Clark, Angie Hauke, Angie Bunn, Renee Huff, Beth Hauke, Carolyn Clifton and Dara Andrews.

Out and about with Red Oak Mary Well, evidently the “Bless U Honda mobile” got tired of running the roads. Thursday evening about a mile from the house she decided to make a sound that scared me because it sounded as if the rear-end had dropped out but praise the Lord, and Hallelujah, we made it home. This was after a day long trip around the hills of southern Clermont County. She is now in the car hospital and I am still awaiting the news of her condition. **** Sincere sympathy to the family, friends and loved ones of Randy Fulton. The Salisbury girls have been friends with many generations and branches of the Tackett, Simpson and Fulton family trees, nearly since the beginning of time. Randy is like family not only to us but to many as he always kind and sweet and had an endearing smile. What another great loss the world has suffered. **** Speaking of the family tree, I have been working diligently going through my paperwork and notes attempting to get my Family Tree program into order. Somehow there was a great confusion, and it appears that I may have lost a bit of information, so, please if you have given me family tree information in the past and have not seen that information in the birthday and anniversary list please call me at (937) 392-4261 or email redoakmary21@hotmail or redoakmary@localnet.com. **** Brown County Singing Convention will be held at the Living Church of Five Mile **** The second Mayor's Summer Songfest will be held Saturday, July 16th at the beautiful Ripley park located behind the post office. This park is a true asset to Ripley. This free sing will be held in conjunction with the opening of the Farmer's Market on South Main Street. You are welcomed to bring your lawn chairs and enjoy. **** The Adams County fair opens the 17th. More information can be gleaned by going to www.adamscountyfairground.com or by calling (937) 217-1522. **** I alluded to the fact that we were roaming Clermont County hills last Thursday, but did you know that just up from historic Point Pleasant, which has a very nice roadside park and rest area, that the former National Guard training ground has a very nice lake with running track and playground. There is even a porch swing set in the exact right place to gaze out over all the lake and picnic area. Very nice! **** Then go straight out of there to the next stop sign and turn to the right. That road leads into Chilo. The area may have many more points of interest but two of them are the operating dam, which is interesting and has a picnic spot. However, my favorite is the park that is home to the Jenny Wade paddle boat. This is a beautiful spot and very picturesque from any direction. It also has a very nice
playground, restrooms, picnic area, hiking trails, nature trails with the different plants identified and a wonderful view up and down the river. **** Yes, last week I already introduced the fact that I attend the Maysville Writer's Group that meets at the Ohio River Valley Artist Guild building in Washington, Ky. What I did not tell you was that at this last meeting we had a special treat. Bill Sanders, our newest member, has recently relocated his company Crush and Press from Washington, D.C. to Maysville. If you attended the annual event, Maysville Uncorked, Bill was there educating the participants. Bill has traveled and studied with the finest of the finest olive oil farms and wine vintner's around the world, learning, so as to educate those interested. Crush and Press is a company dedicated to sharing the flavors and benefits and taste of handcrafted extra virgin oils, fine wines and gourmet foods. Bill has many credits, honors and awards. I must say that after hearing his introduction and tasting the oils and the Balsamic vinegars, I am thoroughly impressed and desire to hear more. To find out more about how to participate in a taste test or to schedule Bill for a speaking engagement, go to www. crushandpress.com or come on over and join the writer's group which boasts a variety of writers from varied backgrounds all with a common purpose and love, writing. Come join us the fourth Tuesday of the month. You are welcomed. **** Congratulations to this weeks birthday kid, Tony Eckler, who had an early birthday present, a 7.5 Bass caught in the pond fished many, many times in the past. Way to go Tony! **** Congratulations to Phil White for being named Outstanding Citizen of 2011 by the Ripley Women's Club. A very deserving person I am very proud of you Phil! **** Best wishes and many blessings to George and Ruth Ann Rooks. Though I have never really met you, I feel that both of you are an important part of my life as great inspirations. So sorry to hear that Ruth Ann is having health issues. Many blessings to you both. **** Now you can do whatever it is that you would like to do because I know that you will anyway, BUT I make the suggestion that before you tradein your vehicle, buy another vehicle or sell your present vehicle that you check the value on the website called N.A.D.A. You just might be surprised, hopefully for the good. This site will give you the retail value, wholesale value and the resell value of your vehicle. Go ahead, be shocked for once. **** A place that I enjoyed visiting was Cowan Lake. On Friday the 29th, the sportsmen of the lake will be having a chicken dinner. The cost is $6 for adults, $5 for seniors and $2 for children. Cowan
Lake is between Fayetteville and Wilmington. The address is 331 Beechwood Road. **** Happy birthday to Berda Snider Moffett of the Happy Community Stitcher's. The Stitcher's have had a long history of sewing for the mission field. They usually have a list of items that are necessary and that are desired including but not limited to quilts. They have now moved to a new location. They can be found at the Rambler Center in Russellville on Tuesday morning from 9 to 10 a.m. You are welcome to stop by for a visit or come to sew. Actually there are more “jobs” that can be done besides sewing. Stop in Tuesday morning and be blessed. **** Congratulations on the retirement of Barry Dalton from the Hamersville school. Barry was the computer and technology teacher in that school. Congratulations Barry! **** Happy, happy 90th birthday to a great historian, Mary Carrington. Many blessings to you Mary. **** Samuel Titus and I had the pleasure of attending the 100th birthday of Decatur. This was the 28th annual celebration of “Decatur in the Park.” Samuel had his hair painted red by our long-time friend, and former Red Oak church member, Lynn Lawhun. We saw Elvis. But more important we saw longtime friends and family members. Best wishes to Ruth Shively who is dealing with foot issues and to Bonnie too. Many blessings to you both. **** Also, I learned that “Happy Jack” Arrasmith, former meat cutter at Ripley, is doing quite well at his church in West Union. The word is that very lately Jack led a very touching and meaningful prayer service-praying for each request as it was given. I had planned to attend this event but did not write it down so needless to say, I forgot. A while back I attended one of the healing services Jack led while he was pastoring at Cedar Mills. I believe that I am still feeling benefits of that time with the Lord. Anyway, his present church is located on State Route 41 north just through the light at Mickey's Restaurant. Shock him with your curiosity. **** Sincere sympathy to the family, friends and loved ones of Chip Kirker. Oh man, Oh Man!
Sincere sympathy to the family, friends and loved ones of Mildred Padgett. **** Happy 50th anniversary to Carol and Buddy Elliott of Russellville. **** Happy birthday and/or anniversary to you if indeed it is your birthday or anniversary to Maria McFadden Finley.

Salisbury, Melody and Jeffrey Gallenstein , Larry Bixler, Jeff Campbell, Vicky Teeters Bixler, Robert Girsovich, Georgia Adams Gast, Scott Dillion, Cole Dotson and Gracie O'Conner. **** Please pray blessings for your neighbor. Not one of us know what the other person has been through. Lately I have been blessed to have had conversations with three different people. They all three had stories that I am sure not many others--if any--have heard. I consider myself very blessed to have been the audience of one as these stories were finally related-and not without tears. Tears are wonderful-no matter the story of grief and no matter who the story concerns or what it is that they have done-because there was one that died for each and every one of those tears-even the crusty, seemingly vocally hard-hearted veteran who can cry over the death of a baby kitten, even the parents who has lost their child/children-though few know that fact about themeven the prodigal child returned home; to find a home much the same as if not more than what they left. Please pray for your neighbors! One of my favorite songs is by the artist Don Francisco called “I Don't Care Where You Have Been Sleeping, I Don't Care Who Made Your Bed!”. Thy kingdom come thy will be done O Lord Almighty on earth as it is in heaven and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those that trespass against us, to God be the glory. Amen!

SSCC’s Adult Opportunity Center holds recognition celebration Area residents who passed the General Education Development (GED) test were honored June 16 at the 23rd annual recognition celebration at Southern State Community College’s Central Campus in Hillsboro. GED preparation is offered free of charge through the Adult Basic and Literacy Education (ABLE) program at Southern State’s Adult Opportunity Center, under the direction of Karyn Evans, with assistance from staff, parttime instructors and volunteers. “This GED recognition ceremony reminds me of a very special lady in my life,” said Dr. Kevin Boys, SSCC President, as he opened the evening’s celebration. “At the age of 16, my grandmother married a tall, handsome farmer. One day, he was working in the field and was involved in an accident which left him disabled. At that time, my grandmother had three young children and wondered what she would do. Well, she decided to go back to school. She finished her high school diploma, then went on to Morehead Teachers College, taking courses every summer until she earned her teaching license. Her decision to go back to school changed my grandmother’s life; it changed my mother’s life; and it changed my life. Education is what lifts us up from where we are. It opens doors for us that we didn’t think were possible.” For this year’s recognition celebration, the student speakers were Vincent Wright, representing the GED program, and Lena Perry, representing the College Readiness Program. Wright said that in 2008 he lost his job and, although he worked in management, his lack of a high school diploma proved to be an obstacle during his search for a new job. When he enrolled in Southern State’s GED
program through the Adult Opportunity Center, he said his class came up with a theme. “We became the gophers,” said Wright. “In ‘Caddyshack,’ the gopher was unstoppable, so now that I’ve earned my GED, I can say, ‘I’m all right, don’t nobody worry ‘bout me!’” Perry said she enrolled in the SSCC Adult Opportunity Center College Readiness Program because she wanted to brush up on her math and English skills to help ensure her success in college. She recalled that when she was about to enter kindergarten at age 4 she was anxious because she assumed she would already have to know everything. “Then, 50 years later, I had that same feeling of anxiety when I decided to enroll at Southern State,” said Perry. “But I just successfully completed my first college quarter and I know I can keep moving forward. And I’d like to thank Southern State for providing this program.” Karyn Evans, Dean of SSCC’s Adult Opportunity Center, announced the names of students who were presented awards for achieving high scores on the tests. Gift certificates were awarded to Charles Webb (language arts, perfect score), Leroy Clark (math), Tiffany Hatfield (science, perfect score), Kyle Malone (social studies) and Jacqueline Music (writing) from Liberty Savings Bank; savings bonds were awarded to Jacqueline Music (perfect score) from Fifth Third Bank; to Heather Reed from NCB Bank; to Leroy Clark (reading, perfect score) from Wilmington Savings Bank; and to Audra Williams from Merchants National Bank.

ence because the auditor’s appraisal is only $24,000. I am bringing this to council now because I have to have an agreement on this by this Friday.” Mock said the village plans on tearing the building down, at a cost of $10,000 which will use up the rest of the $30,000 grant. After Bumbalough called for a motion to approve the purchase at a cost to the village of $3,500, Council woman Jaunita Watson voted no on the issue stating, she didn’t feel the village should be in the business of buying properties. The mayor explained to Watson that because the building was such an eyesore for the village, it would be beneficial to remove it. He also said the village could then sell the property, or possibly use it for a village park. Council approved the purchase. Mock also reported to council that it would take $952 to pay for parts to repair the elevator system at the police department/municipal building. He stated it was a safety issue and whether or not the building was used by the village, it was a good idea to keep it in good repair. Council approved paying for the repairs. Mock also told council that at least three of the village’s five pump stations were in desperate need of upgrades, before the EPA demands it. “I’ve been here 12 years
filed a motion for a new trial, which was denied by visiting judge Thomas Nurre. In the letter to Rosenhoffer, Hensley accuses Brown County elected officials and court officers of being in a conspiracy to “railroad” him. Following the letter, Hensley was transferred to the Clermont County Jail. He said he has been in administrative segregation or “lockdown”, since his arrival. “I was told I would be locked down if I recanted my confession and that’s exactly what happened”, he said. Hensley said he is allowed out of “the hole” one hour per day. He said he asks about getting out of “ad-seg” once per month during a jail review and said the answer he is always given is that “It’s up to Brown County.” When asked about his confession to the murder of Carpenter that was played during a hearing earlier this month, Hensley said he said what he was told to say. “Buddy Moore told me Sarah would suffer and spend the rest of her life in prison unless I confessed to killing (Carpenter)”, he said. Moore is the detective heard on the audio CD interviewing Hensley as he confessed. A report on the confession was originally published in September of 2010 in the Brown County Press and was also reprinted in part last week. During the hearing on the motion to suppress the confession, which was denied by Nurre, Moore was questioned about a 25 minute “pre-interview” that he had with Hensley on April 30, 2010, prior to starting the recording. That “pre-interview” is the centerpiece of Hensley’s argu-

and in all that time we’ve needed to make these upgrades,” Mock explained. “I’d like to do as many repairs this year as we can then budget the rest of the upgrades into next years budget. Also during the meeting Mayor Bumbalough recognized two volunteer officers for all their work on the recent meth bust in the village, May 10. “As everyone knows, last month we had two officers that really put a lot of time in,” Bumbalough began, “and they did it free for our village. They each had over 90 manhours in on this investigation, and we just want to let them know just how much we appreciate their efforts. Officers Jim Clements and

Mike Dearing were both presented with certificates of appreciation. Sardinia Chief of Police Jim Lewis was also recognized and presented with a certificate of appreciation for his work and his outstanding professional leadership and direction of the criminal investigation which led to the arrest of three suspects. Village Fire Chief Lee Naylor told council that he was receiving quotes for brake repairs needed for a tanker truck and for switching communications gear for new pagers and radios. “The ‘Fire-House’ software we’ve been trying to use just isn’t working,” Naylor told council, “We’ve spent over a month now trying to make it work and we just can’t get our computers to work with the software. I have found an excellent new web-based program that is perfect for what we need. The start-up cost for the new program is $1,750, then $1,500 a year. It offers everything we need and will work on any computer.” Naylor highly recommended the new program and said that he is already getting behind in filing reports with the state. Council unanimously approved the purchase of the new software. In his report to council, Bumbalough said he was very pleased with the village budget. “I sat down with Karen the other day and took a good look at our budget, since we’re about half way through the year,” Bumbalough stated. “Our budget looks really really good, we haven’t spent anywhere near what we thought we would by this time, and I’m happy about that.”
ment that he was coerced into confessing to murder in order to save his girlfriend from life in prison. On the witness stand under oath, Moore denied pressuring Hensley to confess, saying that the purpose of the preinterview time was to make him comfortable. When asked about that, Hensley said “He didn’t make me comfortable. He wanted me to confess to murder.” Hensley then said Moore wore him down by telling him how much Clemens would suffer in prison if he didn’t cooperate. Hensley also said Moore put two booking sheets on the table in front of him with Clemen’s name on them. Hensley said one sheet was for Aggravated Murder and one was for Obstruction of Justice. Hensley said Moore told him that “whatever price Sarah pays depends on you.” Hensley said he continued to deny killing Carpenter and even asked Moore for a polygraph test, which he said Moore refused to give him. Hensley then said he told Moore he would cooperate and that Moore then shared details of the murder scene with Hensley, including how many shots were fired. Moore has specifically and strongly denied showing Hensley two booking sheets on Clemens and sharing murder scene details with Hensley to the Brown County Press. On the tape, Hensley is heard to be emotionally upset. He said it’s because it was because he was getting ready to confess to something he didn’t do. His confession goes on to describe his actions in detail, including being driven to the murder scene by Tincher, and going into Carpenters home and talking with him. On the confession, Hensley
then says that he shot Carpenter on the spur of the moment after Carpenter made comments about a young girl on TV. He then said he left the home, walked down Stringtown Road until picked up by Tincher. He was asked if he admitted to everything he testified to at trial, except for the actual shooting. He replied “Yes, I went there and I left there. That’s all true. But that man was alive when I walked away.” When asked who killed Carpenter if he didn’t, Hensley said “Two other people have confessed to that crime. And Carpenter was seen alive at 1:45 that afternoon after I supposedly shot him at 9 in the morning.” Hensley also said Dallas Tincher could have returned to Carpenters home and shot him. Hensley also said he warned Carpenter that he was in danger and that he would like to say more but “his lawyer told him to keep quiet about certain things until the trial”. Brown County Prosecuting Attorney Jessica Little said that Hensley kept his word to testify at trial and she believes he testified truthfully. Therefore, the original plea bargain of 15 years to life is available to Hensley...but he refuses to take it. When asked why, he said “Why should I? I won’t get out after 15 years. I don’t plan on walking out of prison at 70 years old if I still have a chance to fight it.” He said he’s determined to go to trial and “take a chance with 12 people who don’t know me. I have to tell my story to a jury. I have no other choice.” Hensley’s trial is scheduled to begin August 22.

Wright being moved CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Wright was indicted on two felony counts of tampering with records and one misdemeanor count of falsification. Little dropped the charges against Wright in May of 2010, and Wright returned to work. She said at the time she wanted to separate Wright’s case from those of the other five to protect his rights in case any information about his actions came up during the hearing or trial process. Mike Kelley of the Adams County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office was appointed a Special Prosecutor of the Wright case.
To date, no additional charges against Wright have been filed by the state of Ohio. Graham, Miller, Lehman, Ward-Tackett and Haines were indicted on felony charges of Obstructing Justice and Complicity to Obstruct Justice. Following a number of court hearings, Common Pleas Judge Scott Gusweiler ruled in October of 2010, that the cases against Graham, Miller, Lehman, Ward-Tackett and Haines must be dismissed because their “Garrity” rights were violated by the Inspector General’s investigation. “Garrity rights” is legal
shorthand for a ruling that says public employees cannot be threatened or feel threatened with the loss of their jobs if they don’t cooperate with an investigation, even if that cooperation may result in criminal charges. Little appealed Gusweiler’s ruling to the Ohio 12th District Appeals Court, and traveled to Middletown to argue the merits of the case before the court last week. A ruling from the appeals court could be forthcoming by October. Should the court find in Little’s favor, the legal case against the five would resume.

their skills. She said that’s not the case at BCGH. “If you want to learn a lot, this is the place to be. Our nurses here are very versatile because we have a smaller staff.” She said the slower pace of smaller communities of Brown County also offer advantages to potential new hires and patients alike. “Most of the nurses that work here live in the community.

forting to know that help is a mouse click away. “Just to know that there is another set of eyes and a whole building full of experts who can answer any question we have is a great tool to have”, she said. Changes are taking place elsewhere in the building as well, according to Karen Otto, Director of Infection Control for BCGH. “We have new initiatives in place, including changing the look of the hospital. We’ve also done some training with the staff to make sure that everyone can interact with the patients in the most positive way possible”, Otto said. One change is the implementation of patient satisfaction surveys done over the telephone. “We’re giving them a couple of days after they’re discharged and then we’re calling them back to see how we did. So far,
everything we’ve been hearing is telling us that we’re on the right track”, Otto said. Otto added that satisfaction scores tracked by the government for Medicaid patients at BCGH have shot upward in the past couple of months. She said she is proud of that fact and that she and the rest of the staff are working to get the scores even higher. As for people who may not have been patients at BCGH in a while and may have perceptions of the hospital shaped in an earlier day, Otto has a simple request. “Try us out. It’s a new day and a totally different atmosphere here, and we’d love for you to give us a try.” The main telephone number for Brown County General Hospital is (937) 378-7500.

Haggerty overcomes tragedy on and off the field Unfortunately, memories are all that the senior Western Brown football player has left of his father. John Haggarty, Jr. passed away in his sleep on Christmas Day in 2006. Jordan just 13 years old. He has trudged on mightily to become a man at 17 who not only is a good football player but a better person who has become a great role model for his six younger siblings. Yet he still finds the time and the strength, before he goes out to play the sport his father introduced him to, to connect with the man he knows is still watching him. “It’s been tough without my dad,” he said. “Before every football game, I’ll talk
By Andrew Wyder The Brown County Press It’s Jordan Haggerty’s favorite memory--at least from his younger, pee-wee football days. There he is, running down the sideline on his way to a 60-yard touchdown against Delhi. As he runs toward the endzone, he glances at the sideline. What he saw on there on the sideline is what makes it his favorite memory. His dad, John Haggerty Jr., was running right along with him. Looking at his face as he tells the story, it is clearly something he lovingly remembers.

to him. I’ll have a parent, every once and while, come up and tell me how proud he would have been of me. It puts tears in my eyes every time.” While some his age may have struggled from something of that magnitude happening, and who could blame them, Jordan has not only pushed through, he has found a way to become a rock for his younger siblings and mom. Though he spends as much time as he can on the football field to become the best he can at the sport he loves, he spends as much, or more, time helping out his mom with his brothers and sisters. Jordan takes his 15-yearold brother Jared--also a Broncos football player-- 13year-old brother Josh, 11year-old brother Jake and 10year-old sister Sevanna to school every day as well as to any other place they need to go. And when he has time, and his mom has things she needs to do, Jordan helps watch his youngest siblings, 3-year-old Brennen and 1 1/2-year-old Riley. Somehow he also finds time to work--at Butterbees year round and umpiring baseball games in the summer. “He helps me out a lot,” his mother Shannon Haggerty said. “I don’t expect him to, it’s just the type of person Jordan is. He is very helpful.” While there isn’t much doubt that he is helpful, there is none that he is a mature

along his younger brothers Josh and Jake to each practice in the summer and fall. He tries to teach all of them the fundamentals of football, whether it be on the field or in back yard pickup games. Yet even when he is on the field, he still watches out for his brothers in more than just a football sense. “When he’s out on the field, he helps me out,” Jared said. “He watches my back so I don’t get in too much trouble with the upperclassman. He helps with sports and stuff but he just watches our back no matter what out here.”
Given his experiences off the field, it isn’t much wonder that Jordan, a second team All-Southern Buckeye Conference selection last year as a wide receiver and safety, is a leader for his Broncos teammates. Though he has good ability as a player on both sides of the ball, the first thing that comes out of Broncos head coach Evan Dreyer’s mouth when speaking of Jordan is how good of a leader and how hard of a worker he is. “His vocal leadership has grown from sophomore to junior and from junior to senior year,” Dreyer said.

beyond his 17 years. The notion that someone is ‘mature for their age’ is thrown around quite often but most of the time it tends to be a bit of an exaggeration. But in this case, there is very little doubt that Jordan is the true definition of the notion. Ever since his father’s passing, Jordan, as the oldest, has took it upon himself to become a sort of father figure for his younger brothers and sisters. “With him being the oldest, after his dad passed away, he felt he needed to take on that role,” Shannon said. While he admits he has had help, from his mom and her boyfriend Jeremy (who is also Brennen and Riley’s father), Jordan said he realized that all his brothers and sisters missed their dad and needed someone to be there for them in that role. “I try to be the leader for them,” he said. “Try to teach them what’s right and wrong...I try to anyways.” While he spends a lot of time off the field helping his younger brothers, he spends plenty of time doing it on the field, too. Football is the one thing that the brothers still have to connect with their father, who made sure to get them all started in the sport as 5-yearolds. So in addition to bringing his brother, and teammate, Jared, a sophomore wide receiver to Broncos football practice everyday, he brings

Haggerty overcomes tragedy to excell on the field on and off
“His leadership off the field, and what he does, has kind of--since day one and since I’ve seen him and got the job--I’ve seen the way people follow him. (They) see him as a role model. He is doing a heck of a job at that.” With everything going on in his life, it would be easy for Jordan to let something slip, like his school grades or how much work he puts in on the football field. But that is not how he is built. He keeps his grades up to a 3.5 grade point average level and finds time to help out in the learning disabled class at school. On the field, he loves to practice. He wants to put in the work so that he can position himself for the one thing that he really wants for himself. And that is, simply, to go to college. It is one of the reasons he pushes himself so hard in everything he does, on the football field and when he’s off helping out with his family. He tries to show his younger siblings how to do things right so they can follow in his path and put themselves in the position he has placed himself. His hopes are to play football in college, while also being the first person in his family to go to college, something that Dreyer believes is very much a possibility. Given his ability on and off the field, Dreyer said he thinks Jordan would be a perfect
Division III football player. “He’ll be looked upon, due to his high grades and his athletic ability, where he’ll fit in that mold of Division III college player,” he said. “He’ll be a heck of a player for anybody who wants him.” For some, doing all that Jordan does to help his family might be a burden they’re not interested in carrying. Yet when he talks about what he does to help out his mom and, specifically, his brothers and sisters, it seems he truly just wants to help them try to be the best that they can be. It is something that is not lost on his mother, Shannon. “I just want him to know how much he is appreciated and how much he is loved,” she said. And though he has marched on through events that could have easily knocked him off track and looks to be heading towards a promising future, there is still always the special connection the young man has with football and the man that isn’t here anymore. Each time he steps on the football field for a game, Jordan knows that his dad is there just like he was when he was running down the sideline in pee-wee football or helping out on the chain gang at football games. It helps him get through it all. “I just like to think that he’s watching me right now, like when I’m on the field,” Jordan said. “I tell him to keep me safe and help me play as hard as I can. It’s helped me so far...I like to think he’s helped me out a little.”

Many rescues come through our doors We at All Creatures see a lot of rescues come through our doors. These are the people that pick up the abandoned animals on the side of the road, take the frantic call from someone who has just been evicted from their apartment and have no where for them to go much less their pets, or drive to the outskirts of the farthest county to a shelter that no one has ever heard of to collect a bunch of dogs or cats that are on there final days of life because they have not been adopted. These “rescues” take in the lost and abandoned animals, treat their aliments, spay and neuter the pets and then try to find a good home for their wards. These are what can be called classified as a true rescue. Friends of Noah Animal Shelter is located right next door to All Creatures Animal Hospital and provides this type of rescue service. When new owners are looking for dogs or cats the first thing they think of is a breeder. Breeders are not the only place to look for the “perfect” pet…without realizing people over look the rescues thinking that they would not be able to find a perfect match for their home and family. Most people would be surprised to realize that rescues have all types of animals with many different ages. Many would-be owners are looking for a puppy or a kitten…the only thing that most would-be owners don’t realize is that if they look at

Steve Maurer, State Executive Director for Ohio's Farm Service Agency (FSA), would like to encourage farmers to report failed crop acreage that will not be brought to harvest to their local FSA office. Failed acreage must be reported to FSA before destroying and replanting to allow time for a field check. "It is very important that farmers report failed acreage that will not be brought to harvest to the FSA office prior to destruction," said Maurer. "This simple act of insuring that failed acres are documented could be the determining factor in whether or not a
farmer is eligible for future crop disaster program payments." Form CCC-576, Notice of Loss, is used to report failed acreage and may be completed by any producer with an interest in the crop. For crop losses covered by the Noninsured Assistance Program (NAP), producers must contact their local FSA office within 15 days of the occurrence of the disaster or when losses become apparent. Producers with crop insurance should also contact their local agent when losses occur and before destroying the crop. Although low yield acreage does not need to be reported
to FSA, producers are encouraged to keep good production records on acreage with a low crop yield to document crop losses. Reporting failed acreage to FSA will ensure compliance with current farm programs, and possible eligibility for future disaster programs. Additional information in regard to failed crop acreage or crop losses covered by the Non-Insured Assistance Program (NAP) can be obtained by contacting your local FSA office. FSA program information is also available online at: www.fsa.usda.gov .

Ohio Valley Manor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is excited to announce Jamie Jackson, RN, BSN, as the Director of Nursing.

future. “We are very pleased to have found Ms. Jackson,” said Balz. “She has excellent qualifications that complement the strengths of our current nursing management.” Ohio Valley Manor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is located north of Ripley, OH on U.S. 68. Focused on your

"Producers are reminded that the July 15 deadline is still in place to report the annual acreage and that the September 1st extension is only for reporting ACRE production reports," said Steve Maurer, State Executive Director. "By following these
deadline dates, compliance with current farm programs, and possible eligibility for future programs will be ensured." The production reports impact eligibility for potential ACRE payments in the current year and also impacts future years' benchmark farm yields for covered commodities. For more information about the 2010 production reports for ACRE, please visit your local FSA county office.
