This Week PERU

PHS class graduates with fond memories, friendships

By Teah Dowling teah@denpubs.com

PLATTSBURGH — Always remember, class of 2015.

The PHS commencement took place Saturday, June 27 at the SUNY Plattsburgh Field House at 2 p.m., focusing on a very familiar word to the school: remembrance.

As the seniors walked in two-by-two and took their seats in the front of the class, Superintendent James Short introduced the class of 2015 and held a moment of silence for a classmate not present: Michael Lawson.

“Although he is not standing here beside us, Michael is still graduating with us today,” Salutatorian Alexander Webber said. “We carry him in our hearts and he will never CONTINUED ON PAGE 12

Clinton Correctional Facility, located in the heart of Dannemora, in the days following the escape of Richard Matt and David Sweat. Three high ranking officials, as well as nine staffers, were suspended Tuesday in connection with the June 6 escape. Authorities did not provide any more details.

DANNEMORA — Three high-ranking offi cials from Clinton Correctional, including the superintendent, have been placed on administrative leave alongside nine security staffers, the Department of Corrections and Community Supervision revealed on Tuesday.

Their leave is part of review associated with the June 6 escape, said spokesperson Linda Foglia in a statement.

While the suspended personnel were not named, the statement said Assistant Commissioner for Correctional Facilities James O’Gorman will oversee the prison as the new leadership team transitions this week.

“Staffi ng for the security positions will be addressed through procedures outlined in the union contract,” said Foglia.

Steven Racette, of Saranac Lake, serves as the prison’s superintendent.

Reached by phone on Tuesday, Cherrie Racette, his wife, confi rmed that her husband is on administrative leave. ”We have no comment,” she said.

Racette, a second generation superintendent, has worked in CONTINUED ON PAGE 11

Peru grads encouraged to live in the moment

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PERU — Peru’s 2015 commencement Saturday, June 27 was all about butterflies.

Referencing the notion that the movement of the wings of a butterfly can set into action a course of events that can cause change half a world away, Principal Christopher Mazzella regaled the assembled seniors to “take risks, have courage — the courage to unleash a series of butterfly effects.”

“Your life does matter,” he said. “You have the power within you to change the world.”

Valedictorian Katherine Grace Uliva, referencing the movie “Mr. Nobody,” spoke of the various paths the graduating seniors all took to get to the Plattsburgh State Field House for graduation.

She spoke not of looking backwards or forwards, but living in the moment.

“Every path is the right path,” she said. “This path is your path. This life is your life. Don’t worry. Think about the now, and live the now.

“Nobody can live your life for you, and you only have one life to live for yourself.”

After the concert choir sang “For Good,” diplomas were awarded, pictures were taken, and the Peru class of 2015 set out from the Field House filled to capacity to take on whatever path their lives choose to hold.

Family of 2015 Tight-knit group of 18 ready to face new world and changes

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Inside jokes and stories of futures grace the minds of the tight-knit graduating class of 18.

The class of 2015 — Kaden Baugh, Alyse Clark, Yige Du, Shannon Egan, Yizhi Feng, Keegan Frenya, Noah Gagnier, Clara Giroux, Zhao Yan Huo, Adam Nachbauer, Noah Osborne, Noah Paul Racette, Kelli Ryan, Benjamin Thomas, Nathan VanHerp, Joseph Zalis, Sida Zhang and Tingsheng Zhang — all graduated with at least a Regents diploma during the Seton Catholic Central 26th commencement Saturday, June 20 at SUNY Plattsburgh.

Thomas’ hysterical nature will land him a job as a comedian, while Zalis’ whit and charm will transform him into a millionaire, driving up to places in a Lamborghini with a lady on each arm.

Valedictorian Egan told the audience, as best as she could while trying to reach the top of the podium in her high heels, of future stories of her fellow classmates as how she will see them upon their first school reunion.

She spoke about change: a word as scary to her as it is to the rest of her graduating class.

“You really don’t know where you’re going to end up and that’s OK,” she addressed. “That’s the whole point of moving forward from high school — to discover new things and find out what you want to do with your life.”

Egan, daughter of Robert and Darlene Egan, was actively involved as a faith ambassador, student council and the yearbook committee.

She held the position of captain of the Seton Catholic varsity soccer team, as well as the basketball team.

www.the-burgh.com Egan has been accepted into the Liberal Arts, National Honor Society program at CCC this fall, receiving the Clinton Community College Presidential Scholarship, covering the full cost of tuition, and the Dannemora Federal Credit Union Scholarship.

“Don’t be afraid to put yourself out there because that’s what this part of our lives is all about,” she said. “Discover your passion and follow it.”

Salutatorian VanHerp, son of Gary and Deborah VanHerp, spent his time at Seton Catholic as a member of the Seton Catholic Chapter of the National Honor Society, Student Council, Yearbook Committee and North Country Model UN; team member of tennis, track and cross country; and president of the Key Club.

Though accomplishing all of this, VanHerp regretted one thing: being quiet and reserved with his family of 18.

“I’m really going to miss you guys,” he said.

“I hope the best for you.”

VanHerp will be attending the University of Miami, receiving the University of Miami Presidential Scholarship, with a major in audio engineering.

The other 16 graduates also plan on attending a variety of different colleges and universities, including Vermont Academy, Endicott College, SUNY Plattsburgh, Rose-Hulman Institute, Houghton College, Siena College, SUNY Buffalo, Anna Maria College, Hartwick College and Providence College.

One by one each graduate went up and received their diploma from Bishop Terry R. LaValley from the Diocese of Ogdensburg, the guest speaker for the commencement ceremony.

The Bishop spoke words of wisdom, faith and priorities — asking the class of 2015 what motivates and energizes them, what they’re most passionate about.

“Whatever you focus upon, may they be grounded in the realization that all that you have and all that you are is a precious gift from God who loves you so much,” the Bishop preached. “May your first priority be your God and your life be a long desire to share who you are.”

After the awarding of diplomas, Principal Catherine Russell and Vice Principal Mary Forbes did the presentations of awards and scholarships.

Gagnier received four awards/scholarships: Knight of the Year, Catholic Daughters’ Schol-

arship, Champlain National Bank Scholarship and Plattsburgh State Freshman Merit Scholarship.

Ryan, who also received Knight of the Year, was awarded the Marion A. Sampson Memorial Scholarship and St. John’s Academy Class of 1965 Scholarship.

Other awards and scholarships were presented to Feng (Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology Global Scholarship), Giroux (Siena College Franciscan Scholarship), Sida (International Campus Community Award) and Clark (Endicott College Presidential Scholarship and Catholic Daughters’ Scholarship).

After awards, the class stood up, threw their caps in the air and walked out to Hawkins Hall front lawn to “It’s Time” by Imagine Dragons.

They stood on the steps in front of Hawkins Hall in their last group shot where they rethrew their caps in celebration of being done with high school and moving forward.

“We spent the last six years of our lives preparing for this day,” VanHerp said, “the day we get to walk out into the world as adults.”

“Congrats, guys,” Egan said. “We did it.”

‘Thank you, Google’: Laughs and memories mark BCS graduation

By Teah Dowling

teah@denpubs.com WEST CHAZY — The Beekmantown High School gymnasium filled with hundreds of friends, family and teachers to celebrate the successful class of 2015.

A humorous, cheerful bunch of seniors filed in twoby-two, some arm in arm, hand in hand and others who just danced their way to their seats for the commencement ceremony Friday, June 26 at 7 p.m.

After soon-to-be graduates — Andrew Baker, Nicolas Herbert and Allison Peryer — sung and signed the starspangled banner, Superintendent of Schools Dan Mannix welcomed the crowd and introduced not a valedictorian and salutatorian, but three speaking honor graduates Matthew Butler, John “Jack” Hurwitz and Anna Stitt.

Stitt talked about appreciating the simple, little things, though having her own big successes, such as winning scholarships (Beekmantown High School Student Council Scholarship, Lions Club Stuart L. Carlin Achiever Award and several more), attending Roberts Wesleyan College upon graduation and, of course, graduating.

“We’ve accomplished so much.”

Butler, who received the Foundation of CVPH Auxiliary High School Health Career Scholarship, thanked all who helped him throughout his years at Beekmantown: Mom, Dad, family and friends.

“We are all here for a very special purpose and that is to recognize all the hard work and investment that happened in order to make this day possible,” Butler said. “I think I can speak for everyone in my class by saying that we are very fortunate to have such a solid foundation of support.”

Hurwitz, who will be attending the University of Albany upon graduation, had the same approach as Butler — thanking the people who helped him along his 13 year journey, comparing it to a game of monopoly.

Throughout this long journey, Hurwitz shared the life lessons he learned as far back as first grade, like not sticking your tongue to a pole during winter.

“I don’t exactly remember why I wanted to do this,” he said. “But I imagine that, much like Donald Trump running for president, I just wanted to try it even though I pretty much knew it would end in my own humiliation.”

The crowd laughed and cheered throughout the speeches, which carried on through the presentation of diplomas when Interim High School Principal Gerald Blair awarded to a little over 120 Beekmantown students.

While some students plan to enter into a branch of the military or jump headfirst into the workforce, others plan on attending college at La Roche College, SUNY Plattsburgh, St. Michael’s College, Clinton Community College, Clarkson University, SUNY Potsdam, Utica College, Sienna College, Assumption College and many more.

Some students, much like Hurwitz, don’t know what they’ll end up doing.

“If you want to be an artist, create art; if you want to be a singer, by all means follow your heart and sing; and

if you want to work with criminals, join Congress,” Hurwitz said as the crowd echoed in laughter. “I encourage everyone to think for yourself and don’t let other people think for you.”

After each student received their diploma, Stitt led the tassel exchange and the graduates rejoiced in cheering, hugging and, of course, throwing their decorated caps up in the air.

Instead of leaving to the traditional tune of “Ode to Joy,” graduates moved into the audience to present a gift to someone who supported them along their journey — mom, dad, teachers and, last but not least, Google.

“Thank you, Google for always coming through and helping me with homework,” Butler said. “Netflix, I’m sorry, but you distracted me too many times.”

With the help of Google, family, friends and fellow classmates, the class of 2015 will now move out into a world of opportunities, facing and conquering challenges and obstacles along the way.

“Class of 2015,” Butler said, “let us not be afraid of this change but embrace it as it comes.”

“Try to make a positive impact on the world that will make it a better place for us and generations to come,” Hurwitz said. “But, most importantly, have fun.”

From the Front Lines of the Manhunt for Sweat and Matt

Our reporters detail what it was like to cover the history-making prison break

By Pete DeMola

W

ho were Richard Matt and David Sweat?

Since the pair broke out of Clinton Correctional last month and into the collective consciousness, I often found myself trying to look past their mugshots in an attempt to discern who they really were.

Their faces were everywhere: Matt’s dead-eyed look of abject menace and Sweat with glints of a special breed of detached crazy dancing behind a sociopathic stare.

Three weeks on the road covering the manhunt has put me in contact with a diverse cross section of the population — Cops, journalists, government offi cials, the general public, the Twitterati — all of us, small pebbles orbiting around Matt and Sweat’s outsized planet; their mugs, a force of preternatural gravity.

I’ve come to believe that the convicts who pulled off a once-in-a-lifetime getaway from one of the state’s toughest prisons represented, and still do, different things to each of these groups; a blank slate onto which they projected their innermost wants, desires and criticisms.

For law enforcement offi cials, the pair seemed to embody the personifi cation of every criminal mind, from two-bit skeezy scumbags to ingenious masterminds, with whom they’ve ever had the misfortune of dealing. Each of the 23 days the manhunt remained underway was a stinging reminder of everything that they’ve ever fought to stamp out while protecting us from the frontlines. But you’d never hear it directly from them: they remained professional and courteous to the end.

For correction offi cers, the pair appeared to represent the perils and pitfalls of an institutionalized system.

In the immediate aftermath, we’re already witnessing the fallout of what happens when good people make bad decisions. Matt and Sweat are the ultimate result when that symbiotic relationship that underpins all inmate-offi cer relationships in the prison system goes sideways. The duo represented the long hours spent away from their families, both in the manhunt and in their everyday lives, where guards spend their days walking a murky line in a culture none of us civilians can even pretend to understand. Their continued escape, a lingering slap in the face of equal parts shame, embarrassment and biting anger at a sprawling system that is far larger and more complex than just them.

Fortune favors the bold. For many reporters, especially those in the broadcast biz, Matt and Sweat dangled the glittering keys of upward mobility. With the hunt came meal tickets to better gigs — each possible scoop, exclusive or even slip of the tongue from a tightlipped offi cial, the difference between laboring in relative obscurity or moving up through the ranks, perhaps even to a nightly news desk. These escaped killers represented progress, and in the end, cynicism and a deep desire to get on the Northway and fl oor it back to civilization.

And for the general public, well, they’re all over the map, like folks tend to be.

Some have used the duo as outlets onto which to focus their generalized locus of sputtering and often-incoherent rage — at the state, law enforcement, the press… whoever.

Others have used the inmates as a catalyst to unlock their deep wellsprings of humanity, using the opportunity to do some good in the world by giving back to their fellow man.

As for me, I’m still trying to fi gure all of it out.

Now that the manhunt has ended, the picture is coming back into focus: Matt is dead.

He leaves behind a lurid tabloid legacy of a failed jailhouse romance and grape gin.

His body remains unclaimed.

And Sweat is on the way back to the clink.

he Boston Marathon bombers. The Beltway sniper attacks. I’ve been gripped by manhunts before, but never quite like this one.

David Sweat and Richard Matt.

It’s safe to say that I’ll never experience anything quite like the hunt for the two Dannemora escapees as long as I live. Not just as someone who grew up and still resides in northern New York, but as a media member who has seen fi rst-hand how intense the search has been.

It was a challenge, being on the ground. The sense of duty to keep the public — my own neighbors — informed. The long hours, inclement weather, the wear and tear on vehicles and gear. And no, it’s not lost on me that any challenges I face paled in comparison to what law enforcement was up against.

Lastly, the constant balance of trying to get up and close without getting in the way. It’s fair to assume that the scores of people covering the search, from local reporters to national cable news, didn’t make the investigators’ jobs any easier.

I kept that in mind throughout. Even after passing through the same checkpoint multiple times, troopers were friendly. I said while chit-chatting with law enforcement that all of us, whether toting notepads, cameras or TV equipment, must be pesky. And the response has always been a polite acknowledgement that sounds something like this: “It’s OK. We understand that we have our job and you have yours.”

With that in mind, I was mindful along the perimeter, especially when it came to asking troopers where I could and couldn’t go.

On June 23, my colleague and I were pointed in the direction of Mountain View, the hamlet where DNA evidence — the fi rst conclusive lead in the search — was obtained. As we turned around near a restaurant, a relatively quiet afternoon turned hectic at the drop of a dime.

Law enforcement vehicles, some marked with lights ablaze and others nondescript, barreled toward us. An offi cer looked at us and, with an apparent sense of urgency, gestured with a wave of his arm that we were to leave.

This type of situation wasn’t a fi rst for either of us, but even so, it’s hard to quell the imagination: Is this it? Are we going to be right there when the capture goes down?

But common sense took over immediately. It was time to let them do their job and get the hell out of the way.

Driving west out of Mountain View, six police vehicles approached from the opposite direction, bumper to bumper and moving fast. State troopers, posted along the road every 25 yards with shotguns or automatic weapons in hand, continued to motion us away from the scene.

“Go, go, get out of here!” we heard one say.

More personnel, weapons drawn and pointed toward the dense forest, dotted the road to the left. Some crept toward the trees.

Law enforcement continued to barrel the opposite way as we put several miles between us and Mountain View. When eventually reached a checkpoint, all the while wondering what had happened behind us. The troopers manning this one were, once again, friendly and professional. Given what had just happened, the two had questions. Using a paper map and one on my phone, I traced the route that had taken us into, around, and back out of the hamlet.

“Have either of you been outside of the vehicle?”

“No, offi cer, we have not.”

And then we were asked to hold tight a little longer.

Apparently a sighting of two men running through the woods was called in. The initial response was quick; the following one would be thorough.

With over 2,000 leads called in throughout —only a handful of which led to conclusive evidence — one can only imagine how much work went into pursuing each as if it was the one that would break the search open.

We waited for higher-ups to arrive at the checkpoint.

Several SUVs came and went before one carrying two plainclothes offi cers arrived. Out stepped a tall, muscular man in a Guns N’ Roses T-shirt, and a woman in jeans and a dark blue top.

The female offi cer pulled me aside and made two things clear. First, we weren’t in trouble. Second, it was essential that they know whether we had been out of the car, whether it was 50 feet or fi ve.

I admired the professionalism of the encounter, especially given that less than an hour ago a call was made that may have put the escapees in the crosshairs. The closest either of us had been to out of the car was an arm in an open window, but communicating that was a challenge of its own.

“To be candid,” I told the offi cer, “even if I had to go to the bathroom and stood fi ve feet off the road to do it, I’d tell you.”

I said that because I did have to go during our drive through Mountain View, but refrained. I do bear some resemblance to Sweat, so I had been told, and had been extremely mindful of that when I was anywhere near the search.

After some time, the investigators gave us the green light to move on. With a mutual thanks — to us for our patience and them for their service — we got back in the car and continued west.

The search area was a strange, strange world.

Sights I’ve seen all my life can, at any moment, be interrupted by a wave of a hundred COs emerging from the woods. Agents in full tactical gear have crossed CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Prejudice, Morality and Local History Summer Lecture Series hosted by NCURHA PERU — With programs on the Bible and slavery, the KKK and French Catholics, and battling racism in Clinton County, an upcoming summer series focuses on real people struggles with prejudice, liberty and morality.

The series, sponsored by the North Country Underground Railroad Historical Association, began Friday, June 19 with “The Little Known History of the Ku Klux Klan in the Northeast During the 1920s.”

SUNY Plattsburgh historian Mark Richard notes that during the 1920s, the KKK drew millions of women and men from across the United States into its ranks.

“While recent scholarship has emphasized the Klan’s role as a social or civic organization of ordinary citizens trying to effect change in their communities,” Richard said, “the KKK’s confrontations with French-Canadian descendants in the northeastern United States undermine this interpretation.”

On Sunday, July 12, at 5 p.m., “One Man Defends Slavery” will explore the case of Simeon Brownson, a modest Madison County farmer who fought to maintain his position in the local Baptist church in spite of his refusal to support the “ultra” abolition position advocated by his neighbor and wealthy abolitionist Gerrit Smith.

This talk, by researcher and retired teacher Paul Reese lends insight into the personal struggle over slavery that was playing out on a national level in evangelical churches of the nation 15 years before the fi rst shots of the Civil War were fi red.

On Sunday, Aug. 9 at 5 p.m. Clinton County Historical Association President Helen Nerska will present on “African Americans of Clinton County.”

“Most times, but not always, Clinton County citizens have shown respect for the civil rights of African Americans,” Nerska said. “Our area was not unique in its ups and downs and some

A

headline read, “It’s Over.” Like other traumatic events, most of us will remember what we were doing when the second of two Clinton Correctional Facility escapees was shot. This one lived.

I was only indirectly involved by using Facebook as a platform for information. I’m not sure how that came about, but it wasn’t long after the escape that I became obsessed with the story. I was doing it for no reward except my own satisfaction and I wanted to fulfi ll a need.

It soon drew me in like a vortex. Every time I shut off the computer, there were comments on Facebook like, “Where is Gordie?” I felt like Waldo and concluded I was letting friends down by my absence.

As a news junkie, I monitored all media coverage.

Soon, people began supplyby Gordie Little ing me with insider information. One day, I mentioned an “unconfi rmed source” indicating that one of the inmates had been captured. It turned to be false and I took a boat load of grief. I was deeply hurt and decided to back off completely.

Many insisted that I jump back into the fray and I ultimately did so with trepidation. People wanted me to post what I learned and I attempted to do so in a responsible way. It paid off. We learned and reported salient facts as they unfolded.

A collective sigh of relief was felt when new friends and old learned that both escapees were no longer on the run.

People unloaded their fi re arms and returned to a semblance of normalcy. Pages of responses from former and present residents began to pour in. Their sentiments were warm, thankful and encouraging. Kaye said, “Well, that kind of makes up for long stretches of time I couldn’t talk to you because you were so engrossed in that computer screen.”

I was like a hound on the scent. I suppose it’s akin to a gambler who believes this is the day he hits the jackpot. I felt every day that the search would end and paid close attention to everything. I added my prayers to others. My silent supplication was worded thus: “Dear God, if it is your will, lead these long-suffering searchers to a situation where the second escapee can be captured.”

We walked into the door after attending the wake for Kaye’s lifelong friend, Frannie Latinville, and got the news.

A State Police Sgt. From the Malone station, was in the right place at the right time. Working alone, he spotted the escapee walking along the road. He tried to question the man who bolted toward the woods. To show you how fortuitous the situation was, the Sergeant is a fi rearms instructor and, while chasing the man on foot, got off two very accurate shots that brought the fl eeing man down.

I am grateful for the chance to play a small part in telling this story even as it was being written. My sincere thanks to media from here and afar for working many long hours covering the escape story. I also salute the heroes from many agencies who spent countless tiring hours in awful conditions to bring the search to a successful conclusion. And I thank my North Country friends who donated a great deal to make sure those wonderful searchers had their needs taken care of in the fi eld. We put up blue ribbons to honor our heroes.

We’re learning more about how such an escape could happen. Others are working toward preventing it from ever happening again. Having had many family members and close friends involved in corrections, I am well aware of the professionalism they show day in and day out while working in a very dangerous environment. I thank all of them for their service.

When the story is fi nally written, it might have a chapter that some of us fi nd less than delightful. The chips will fall where they may, but I am still grateful for their service and am delighted to have the Clinton Correctional Facility here with its rich history. Thanks again for your support during a most diffi cult time.

and scabs from his many fl ea bites. His fur is dull and dirty and his nails were embedded into the pads of his paws.

We are told that his current owners had him for a few months and that he hid in his new home most of the time.

When Hemi did arrive he was very afraid, but he was always very kind and showed no aggression.

He is a nice cat that will just need a bit of time to adjust to his new surroundings. Hemi has been assessed by the vet and is in good general health. He is now current on vaccinations, has tested negative for FeLV/FIV and is neutered. Come in and meet this great cat who deserves to have a safe and loving home.

Saranac graduates begin the next chapter in their lives

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com SARANAC — Graduations are always electric, but the buzz in the air at the Saranac High School graduation last Friday was nothing short of palpable.

Coming just hours after the announcement of the death of Richard Matt, one of the two escaped Clinton Correctional Facility inmates, reactions of those assembled ranged from hushed congratulations to outright jubilation.

For the school district most affected by the escape and ensuing manhunt, and most closely aligned with the prison, the timing

couldn’t have been more prescient.

But once the graduates filed into the Field House two by two, thoughts turned to the business at hand: graduating the class of 2015.

With the standard issue pomp and circumstance, Superintendent Jonathan Parks spoke of his first day at Saranac, which was 13 years ago, exactly the same day as the graduating class of 2015.

Salutatorian Amy LoTemplio spoke of celebrating the end of high school and how an education is something that people in other parts of the world risk their lives just to attain. She congratulated the class on their lifetime of achievement.

Johnstone From page 6

yards I’d seen children play in. ATVs, canines and helicopters would at any moment descend on a swatch of land, all the while a man mowed his lawn across the street or a family played in the yard.

I became both mystified by and numb to such scenes.

We were again in the Malone area June 26, headed south along Route 30 when another wave of law enforcement vehicles — the biggest we had seen yet — roared past. We soon hit a roadblock, populated by a handful of residents who were told they couldn’t go home. The relative quiet wasn’t to last. More locals arrived, some turning around while others parked and wandered about, swapping tales of life amidst the manhunt.

Television crews, photographers and reporters soon made up half the crowd as official vehicles

Valedictorian Morgan Hulbert too regaled the class with their 13 years of achievement.

“Today is a day full of pride to see how far we all came, and how smart we are,” she said. “Every one of us is good at something. We need to take that we have and use it to become successful. Be who you want to be. Work to be successful.”

With diplomas firmly in hand, conversations once again turned to the news of the day, mixed with a smattering of congratulatory hugs and obligatory photo ops for the graduating seniors and their families. Saranac Central’s commencement 2015 certainly was a fitting bookend to a lifetime of work for the graduating class.

continued to pour past, accelerating hard once past the roadblock. This felt different. The sense of urgency was highest we had encountered yet.

Finally, word trickled in — Matt was dead, shot by a Border Patrol agent near Lake Titus. Rumors swirled that Sweat, too, went down, though it would be two more days until that was actually the case.

Matt had been holed up, armed, in a camper about 50 feet from the road. How many times had I driven past? Had he watched my car roll by, 20 gauge in hand? I shiver at the thought.

Now, we can collectively sigh in relief. Relief that the hunt has come to an end. Relief that no civilian or member of law enforcement was hurt and that two convicted murders no long lurk free in the North Country.

Relief that our neck of the woods can go back to its quiet, peaceful ways.

the state’s prison system since 1979, when he started as a correction officer trainee, rising through the ranks to superintendent in 2010.

His salary is $132,040.

Clinton is among 10 upstate prisons where Racette has worked, including Great Meadow, Elmira, Upstate, Franklin, Riverview, Watertown, Adirondack and Coxsackie and the former Camp Gabriels.

Assemblywoman Janet Duprey, who represents the district where the prison is located in Dannemora, hailed Racette on Sunday following Sweat’s capture.

“I have the utmost confidence in Clinton Correctional Facility Superintendent Steve Racette, the administrative team, correction officers and civilian staffs’ collective ability to work with the Department of Corrections and Community Supervision, state police and the Inspector General to thoroughly investigate how this escape happened to ensure it never happens again,” said Duprey in a statement.

Duprey declined to comment on specifics, only to say she had spent the day at the prison last Friday meeting with officials.

CNN reported on Monday that Clinton Correctional is also being probed by the FBI for a possible drug smuggling ring.

“IT WAS NO COUNTRY CLUB” Gov. Andrew Cuomo said on Monday that

those who aided the escape will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

“If you help a convict escape, you will become a convict,” he said during an appearance on the Capitol Pressroom.

Cuomo dismissed talk of conditions at the prison being cushy, including the recently dismantled honor block where Matt and Sweat lived.

“It was no country club,” he said.

Clinton Correctional has typically been used as a threat for other inmates within New York’s prison system, Cuomo noted.

Well-behaved prisoners are better for guards and an antidote to negative sanctions in prison, said the governor. ”You want to incentivize the behavior of the inmates,” said Cuomo.

“Those practices and systems need to be looked at,” he said of Clinton Correctional.

“But I think there’s been a tendency among the guards in this honor block, where these were long-termers who were well-behaved, that people may have become lax.”

Cuomo said staffing and financial concerns weren’t an issue.

“It’s not about the money, it’s about the management,” he said.

We’ll update this story as more information becomes available. ”A month ago, I would have said this was impossible,” she said, referring to the escape, which led to a 23 day manhunt that left Richard Matt dead and the other, David Sweat, shot and back in custody.

be forgotten.”

Lawson, 17, passed away during his junior year at PHS June 29, 2014 as a result of a swimming accident.

Lawson, along with his studies at PHS, took classes at BOCES in preparation to pursue a career in criminal justice.

When not studying, Lawson would play football, soccer, basketball and baseball for PHS. He enjoyed snowboarding, wakeboarding, taking cruises, playing X-box and spending time with family and friends.

His classmates remember him by many titles: fellow classmate, teammate, buddy and great friend.

“That duck noise he used to make always cracked me up,” Valedictorian Leo Lee said with a smile. “He put smiles on peoples faces every day.

“Love you, buddy. This one’s for you.”

Lee went on to tell the class how they should live in memory of Lawson — remembering the times and laughs they shared and remember how close they all were not like a family, but like a pizza.

Glued together by mozzarella with each student bringing a different topping, different flavor, to the pizza, Lee used this metaphor as a way to describe how close his school family was.

Lee was not the only one who felt this way.

“We’ve become a family,” Webber said. “Like any family, we have our good days and our bad days, but when push comes to shove, we love each other and we look out for each other.”

The class of 2015’s close bond was shown to family, friends and faculty and staff during commencement through a photo slide show on the wall of the high school gymnasium.

Pictures of Lawson graced the screen first as it led into a timeline of photos from childhood up until their senior year at PHS — showing different events the students will remember for the rest of their lives.

“I’ll remember sporting events, spirit week and dances,” Senior Speaker Kelsey Senecal said. “I will remember the friendships I’ve made and the times that we’ve had as a class.”

Senecal’s speech focused on the transition from freshman to senior year, similar to the slideshow.

She discussed how the class went from clueless, wideeyed freshman to somewhat sophisticated sophomores who thought they had it all figured out.

By the time they reached junior year, they were confident that they were prepared to take over as seniors and rule the school.

“Our rule is over,” she said, “and it’s time for the juniors to step in.”

The awarding of the diplomas began and every single student went up to receive their diplomas by Short, Principal Glenn Hurlock and Assistant Principal David Baroody.

The class of 2015 stood up, turned their tassels from right to left and threw their caps up in the air in celebration.

As the class of 2015 took their last steps out of high school and first steps into the land of opportunity, they left with fond memories and a special friend forever remembered in their hearts.

“Congratulations, class of 2015,” Lee said. “We out.”

While manhunt is over, many questions unanswered Courtroom battles just heating up

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com

the manhunt

PLATTSBURGH — Earlier this week, as Richard Matt awaited burial and David Sweat recovered from two gunshots to the torso, charges related to their brazen escape had just begun winding their way through the court system.

Gene Palmer, the correction officer who was arrested on charges in connection with the pair’s escape from a maximum security prison last month, appeared in Plattsburgh Town Court on June 29, where his counsel waived his right to a felony hearing.

The case was moved to the Clinton County court system upon his counsel’s request, the standard for felony charges.

The case may now go to a grand jury, which will then make a decision to indicate Palmer on three charges related to the escape, two of them felonies.

The long-term guard is accused of giving a screwdriver and pliers to at least of the one of the inmates and burning several prisonergifted paintings in his backyard following the escape on June 6.

More charges may be coming down the pike, said Clinton County District Attorney Andrew Wylie.

“If there is other charges that we can present against them that the grand jury wants to charge, then we’ll proceed,” said Wylie.

Wylie said he plans on allowing Palmer’s new attorney, William Dreyer, an extension that will allow him to review court materials, including recorded statements, a process that he estimated will take at least three weeks.

“But I already have a grand jury seated and ready to hear the case tomorrow,” said Wylie.

At the appearance, Palmer wore a charcoal-colored suit and stared straight ahead, his face betraying no signs of emotion.

Palmer’s lawyer refused to address reporters except to confirm the case had been waived.

Palmer remains free on $25,000 bail.

Wylie said Sweat, who as of Tuesday was in serious condition at Albany Medical Center, will face at least one charge related to his getaway, escape in the first degree, a felony, once state police conclude their investigation, likely in 3-4 weeks.

“It’s a rather simple case — we have two holes in the walls of the cellblocks,” said Wylie, noting the location of the adjoining cells in Clinton Correctional A-Block.

Sweat was serving a life sentence with no chance of parole for his role in the death of a Broome County Sheriff’s Deputy in 2002.

Wylie said Sweat will be turned back over to the department of corrections once he’s been medically cleared.

The prosecutor said he was unaware of any comments made by Sweat following his capture in a rural field in Constable other than those shared by Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who told the Capitol Pressroom on Monday that the pair had planned on going to Mexico before Joyce Mitchell, the prison seamstress who is also charged in connection with the case, bailed out.

“Then they would go live happily ever after, which is a fairy tale that I wasn’t read as a child,” Cuomo said. “But we all believe what Gene Palmer, the correction officer charged in connection with the escape of two inmates from Clinton Correctional earlier this month, appeared in Plattsburgh Town we want to believe.”

Court on Monday, June 29, where his counsel waived his right to a felony hearing. The case has been transferred to the Clinton County court system and will likely go to Sweat split from Matt several days before a grand jury sometime next month.

Photo by Pete DeMola the latter’s death, which explained why authorities did not find DNA from both in a cabin that was searched June 24.

“Sweat felt that Matt was slowing him down,” said Cuomo, citing the bloody socks obtained at one of the cabins.

Wylie declined to comment on other possible charges for Mitchell, who remains at the Rensselaer County Jail.

As far as he knew, Palmer and Mitchell did not have a close relationship, their only connection being when she allegedly asked him to pass a package of hamburger meat containing hacksaw blades and a screwdriver bit to the pair.

Palmer has not been charged in relation to that incident.

According to a sworn statement, Palmer gave one of the inmates — it’s unclear which one — a screwdriver and needlenose pliers on at least four different occasions.

The investigation is ongoing, as is a separate FBI probe of a heroin smuggling ring at Clinton Correctional, announced CNN earAuthorities pile into a helicopter after checking out a reported sighting on After the capture of David Sweat, businesses throughout the North Country showed lier this week. their appreciation to local law enforcement, along with impromptu celebrations held “The aspect of my office’s involvement is Route 86 in Saranac Lake hours before Richard Matt was gunned down by Border Patrol officers. in Malone and Dannemora. just kicking into gear,” said Wylie.
