Children left at office between the shootings

Three young children are without parents after their father killed their mother and then took his own life at the Sugar Mill Apartments in Lawrenceville on Saturday morning, officials said.

Gwinnett police responded to the apartment complex MORE ONLINE shortly Visit gwinnettdailypost.com for a video. after 9:30 a.m. after receiving a call from the leasing office that three young children, all of whom are under the age of 10, had been dropped off at the office. “(The children) informed the staff there that their mother had been shot by their father,” said Gwinnett County Police Department Detective David Smith. “We learned shortly thereafter that the father had dropped them off at the leasing office and then returned to the apartment. Once he returned to the apartment, officers attempted to make contact and were unsuccessful. Due to a possible barricaded gunman situation, we notified the SWAT team, who responded to the location.”

Smith said that once SWAT arrived, personnel made entry into the apartment relatively quickly, where they found the couple, who were later identified as 48-year-old Kalvin Wright and 33-yearold Gentorica Wright, both dead from See KILLED, Page 5A

Local volunteers help golf tournament run smoothly

BY TREVOR MCNABOE trevor.mcnaboe @gwinnettdailypost.com Sugarloaf Country Club resident Juli Jackson has been a volunteer for six years at the Mitsubishi Electric Classic.

Much of the focus of the Mitsubishi Electric Classic the past few days has been on Mother Nature.

Tournament officials worked diligently to figure out a way to get the entire tournament played before the rain came.

There won’t be any golf today because players got two rounds in Saturday. Some had to play even more than that — the final round went to a two-hole playoff and ended just before dark. Steve

Flesch came out on top to claim his first title on the PGA Tour Champions.

But behind the plethora of golfers who walked the course throughout the week and the thousands of patrons that watched, scores of volunteers donated their time to ensure a smooth tournament.

The Mitsubishi Electric Classic has been at TPC Sugarloaf for the past six years, drawing local residents and volunteers from across the state to make the trip to Duluth.

Ga. Senate panel dismisses harassment claims against Shafer

BY CURT YEOMANS

curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

A Senate Ethics Committee has dismissed a complaint alleging Sen. David Shafer sexually harassed a lobbyist on multiple occasions.

Shafer’s office released a copy of a letter he received from the committee about its decision Friday. Senate Ethics Committee Chairman Dean Burke told Shafer there was a “lack of credible evidence” that the Duluthbased senator, who is run-

ning for lieutenant governor, sexually harassed the lobbyist who filed a complaint against him.

Shafer had been accused of harassing the lobbyist multiple times as far back as 2002, but he had vehemently denied the accusations when they were filed last month.

“The investigation failed to find credible evidence of sexual harassment or a violation of the Senate Rules,” Burke said in his letter to Shafer. “Thus, pursuant to the Senate Rules, the committee found that there was not reasonable cause to

believe that a violation has occurred.”

Shafer and his attorney, Jennifer Little, David Shafer said the complaint had been politically motivated, citing the fact that it was filed with Senate officials during the week of qualifying for this year’s elections. They did not call out anyone in particular as being behind the complaint.

“Make no mistake, politics has hit yet another low

terviews with an investigator.

When the allegations first surfaced, his campaign released affidavits from several people who knew Shafer and the lobbyist.

Among them was Shafer’s administrative assistant, who said the senator always had a staff member sit in on any meeting between him and the lobbyist.

“As I’ve said from the beginning, these allegations are false,” Shafer said. “I welcomed the appointment of the outside investigator, even though she is a partisan Democrat, because I knew

any serious investigation of these allegations would result in my complete exoneration.”

One reason the committee ruled in Shafer’s favor after the investigation was finished was that “the evidence contradicted the essential elements of the complaint,” Burke wrote in his letter to Shafer.

“As happy as I am that my name has been cleared, the sad reality is that this has taken away from the real suffering of actual victims of sexual harassment,” Shafer said.

today because this complaint was nothing more than a pure smear campaign,” Little said. “It is simply not a coincidence that these decadesold lies were perfectly timed on the heels of Sen. Shafer’s qualification to run for lieutenant governor.”

Shafer and his legal team turned over 68,000 phone calls, 700 pages related to his legislative voting history and emails going back seven years to investigators, according to Little. They also produced 15 witnesses who testified on his behalf, and Shafer sat down for two in-

Barrow County Sheriff’s Office deputies believe a 16-year-old boy is responsible for the murder of his 16-year-old girlfriend who was found dead in a mobile home in Winder on Thursday afternoon, officials said Friday.

Deputies responded to the Russell Village Mobile Home Park on East Midland Avenue shortly after 1:30 p.m. Thursday after receiving a call about a person shot at the residence, though when they arrived, they learned that the girl had not been shot.

At the scene, they found she had been stabbed, and deputies said they believe the boy had remained with the body for some time.

“Upon arrival, deputies made contact with two individuals outside of the residence and then entered the residence to make sure the scene was safe,” a news release said. “Upon entering the residence, it was determined there was a deceased female in one of the bedrooms. The Barrow County Sheriff’s Office personnel received information that the suspect had left on foot shortly before their arrival so they initiated a search for the suspect.”

Authorities work Thursday at the scene of a murder in Winder.

After about an hour, the suspect, who is being detained at a regional youth detention center, was apprehended.

While the sheriff’s office is not releasing the juveniles’ names, neighbors said the family who lives in the home has been there less than a year and that several children live in the home.

Neighbors told reporters that when they came home from work Thursday afternoon, there were dozens of deputies in the community and police tape surrounding the

“I saw all these police officers around here,” neighbor Kevin Mendez said. “I couldn’t get home, so I had to go around.”

Investigators wanted to assure residents that they were not in danger, Mendez said.

“They told us not to worry because one man is in jail,” he said.

The suspect, whom officials said turns 17 next month, will likely be charged as an adult in the murder.

Skeeter Skates plows through Facepainting I could tell by the way the telephone rang that Skeeter Skates was calling. The phone sort of jumps and jangles when he calls. He can be a pretty intimidating guy, even to a telephone.

Skeeter is the owner of Skeeter Skates Plow Repair and Stump Removal in Ryo, Georgia. I don’t know many folks in the plow repair and stump removal busiDick ness besides Yarbrough Skeeter, but if they are anything like him, it is a no-nonsense crowd that doesn’t waste a lot of time with pleasantries.

“Hoss,” Skeeter barked when I picked up the phone, “the plow repair and stump removal profession” — Skeeter considers his work a profession, like doctors and lawyers and belly dancers — “is hard enough without you going and messing things up.”

Before I could ask Skeeter to clarify what he meant, he proceeded to tell me.

“You remember I talked to you last year about maintaining my position as an industry leader in the plow repair and stump removal industry and you suggested that I get on Facepaint and Twerp?” Actually, I think what we talked about were Facebook and Twitter, but this wasn’t the time to bring that up.

“Well, somebody told me that the Russians get on Facepaint and cook up all kinds of mischief. I’m worried that, given my high profile in the profession, they might make me a target and say my plow blades ain’t sharp enough or I don’t get all the roots when I take out an eastern cottonwood tree stump. Folks in Ryo would know that ain’t true. But most of your readers might just fall for that stuff.”

I haven’t done a reader survey in several years, but I am pretty sure plow repair and stump removal aren’t all that high on your list of concerns. A reading of my mail says you are more concerned getting about hosed by the Legislature than what Vladimir Putin thinks of tree stumps.

“Besides,” Skeeter asserts, “about all I see on Facepaint is somebody bragging about some fancy-schmancy place where they ate dinner or went off and visited Kansas or something. Maybe it is just me, but I think understanding the workings of a Groundhog ATV Disc Plow would be a lot more beneficial to our society than where somebody ate supper or seeing pictures of a bunch of giraffes at the Topeka Zoo.” He has a point there.

“Son, you’ve told me that you’ve got a bunch of important contacts at the very top levels of our government in Washington,” he said, “and that your opinions are very important to them.” I didn’t say that to Skeeter Skates. I swear I didn’t. Well, OK, I might have kind of implied something like that a time or two, but I didn’t think he was listening. I didn’t want to tell him the most important person I know in Washington is George E. Perdue, who is the Secretary of Agriculture and who used to be our governor and who has never listened to me. He got his shorts in a wad early on when he was governor because I said his “Go Fish, Georgia” initiative was uglier than a catfish.

“What I want you to do is talk to President Trump next time you see him and tell him to quit twerping so much. Tell him Skeeter Skates said it didn’t help the plow repair and stump removal profession one bit and it ain’t helping the country. The man has got everybody mad at each other.

He ought to have better things to do than just twerping all the time.”

I told Skeeter the president and I don’t talk much these days, but I was sure he did a lot of things besides twerping. I do agree that he could be a tad more judicious when he does. It can get a bit scary, I admit.

“Hoss, I want you to know I ain’t mad at you for suggesting I get on Facepaint and Twerp,” Skeeter said, “I know you meant well, but the plow repair and stump removal profession ain’t like other professions. We are about plows and tree stumps, not where to eat supper or where you can find a bunch of giraffes.”

I told Skeeter I always appreciated his wise counsel and asked him if he would mind if I put something on Facebook about our conversation after I had tweeted it out.

I heard him banging his head against the wall as he hung up.

N. Korea will be watching Trump, Syria WASHINGTON — President Trump’s decision last year to launch 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles at a Syrian air base was intended to send the Assad regime a message that its use of chemical weapons would no longer be tolerated. But the strikes also had a broader purpose: showing other regimes that the Obama era of U.S. weakness was over, and that America’s adversaries would have to adjust their calculations about our willingness to act in response to their provocations.

Now, a year later, the Assad regime has reportedly defied Trump by its apparent launch of another chemical weapons attack. Once again, how Trump responds will have consequences far beyond Syria. With a high-stakes summit with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un coming up, Trump needs to keep in mind how his next move in Syria will be seen not just in Damascus, Tehran and Moscow but also in Pyongyang. He should use his next strikes on Syria both to punish dictator Bashar Assad and to demonstrate to Kim what might happen to North Korea if it continues to pursue nuclear intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) that could destroy American cities.

Last year, Trump delivered a measured, proportionate response to Assad’s chemical attack, hoping this would deter the Syrian dictator. According to

Sen. Lindsey O. Graham, RS.C., has suggested that Trump should also consider taking out Marc Assad with a “decapitation” Thiessen strike. “Assad and his inner circle should be considered war retired Gen. Jack Keane, former criminals, legitimate military vice chief of staff of the U.S. targets,” Graham said this week.

Why? Because Trump aviation fuel at those airfields, wants Kim to see that a simiaviation maintenance equiplar military operation against ment and aviation munitions.

In other words, another By acting decisively in Syria, “bloody nose” strike — even Trump also has an opportunity a bigger one — is not enough. to send a message not just to We need to conduct large-scale North Korea but also to China operations that will destroy that he is not bluffing when he Assad’s weapons-of-massthreatens to act against Kim’s destruction capability.

Just as imyear’s strikes against Assad, and portantly, it would also provide the Chinese leader responded by an unspoken preview for Kim stepping up economic pressure

on Pyongyang. A large-scale operation to eliminate Assad’s capability to produce weapons of mass destruction would be a wake-up call to China that Trump is willing to take similar action against North Korea; it would also create an incentive for Xi to step up the pressure for denuclearization.

Trump also needs to stop talking about withdrawing U.S. forces from Syria. An American withdrawal would not only allow Assad to escalate his brutal campaign of atrocities in Syria, but also it would tell Pyongyang that Washington does not have the stomach to see its military campaigns through. If Trump can’t keep 2,000 U.S. troops in Syria, Kim would calculate, he would hardly have the fortitude to see through a much more difficult military intervention against North Korea.

Trump has an opportunity to end Syria’s ability to massacre innocent men, women and children with weapons of mass destruction. But he also has a chance to show Pyongyang before the summit meeting that his threats of military action are more than bluster.

The success or failure of that meeting depends on whether Kim believes Trump is serious about taking military action — which is why Kim will be carefully watching what Trump does next in Syria.

Can we learn to drive without cellphones?

I wonder what Mr. Tom would think about the new cellphone legislation passed by the General Assembly at their latest pow-wow.

Mr. Tom would be former speaker of the Georgia House Tom Murphy, of course. He was one of the most powerful politicians to ever serve the citizens of the great state of Georgia, and when the Legislature, over his objections, passed an ordinance requiring seat belts to be worn in the front seat of pickup trucks, he vowed not to buckle his.

When accused of flaunting the laws he was sworn to uphold, as well as create, he assured everyone that he intended to follow the law and would be happy to pay any fine imposed upon him for not wearing his seat belt in his truck. I don’t know if it ever came to that or not, but it was fun to listen to the back and forth between Mr. Tom and the rest of the population.

And don’t bother writing to tell me how wrong he was. Hell, I know that. So did he. It was still fun to watch and listen. I’ve always said that Southern politics is a great spectator sport.

Tom Murphy and State Revenue Director Marcus Collins used to fly in the state helicopter to Meigs to watch

In case you haven’t heard, once the new law goes into effect it will be a big no-no to have a telephone in your hands while operating a motor vehicle in the state of Georgia.

“satchel phone” and was twice as big as the phone in my house and had an antenna as long as Pinocchio’s nose would be if Pinocchio were named Bill Clinton. It had to be plugged into the cigarette lighter to work, and I think it cost about a dollar a minute to use. My buddy Larry Rainey tried his best to talk me out of using mine. He was certain the cellphone bill would break me. He was right, but the person I talked to most often was Larry Rainey, and it was almost impossible to get him off the phone.

Y’all remember those pioneer days. You would always announce to the people you called that you were on a car phone and that was supposed to somehow give you prominence.

If you called a radio sports talk show on a mobile phone, they would put you right to the head of the line. Those were the days.

Now cellphones are more common than cornbread with collards, and we can’t hold them while we operate cars anymore. One small step for public safety. Or maybe it’s a giant leap. Time will tell.

But I still wish I knew what Mr. Tom Murphy would have thought about all of this.

told the candidates.

“You have not studied this subject, do not have the background or the relationships and the background to come up here and try and talk about this issue. Many of you have probably never even held a gun, much less have one.”

That prompted pushback from several candidates.

“The Second Amendment says the right to bear arms is unfettered, it’s an unalienable right,” Democratic House District 107 candidate Ken Montano said. “The Supreme Court agreed two times … that we have a right to bear arms for safety.

“And in both decisions, they also said we do not have the unfettered right to have guns, and local and state (governments) have the right to provide for reasonable regulation.”

Democratic 7th Congressional District candidate Kathleen Allen said she has fired an AR-15. She also highlighted laws passed in the early 20th century to restrict access to machine guns and said those restrictions have not been overturned by courts.

“So the idea that the Second Amendment has no limitations is false,” she said.

•From Page 1A Pat Farris, a Buford resident since 1986, has been coming to volunteer at the tournament each year.

An avid golf player, Farris developed an interest in working at the tournament to see some of the sport’s best players up close and personal.

“When the opportunity came to work this tournament, it was just a way to give back to the community,” Farris said.

Farris said that during the six years she has volunteered, she has forged friendships with many of the other volunteers working the event.

She began volunteering six years ago as a golf cart attendant pulling cables.

“I thought I’d be driving players around and getting the chance to talk to them,” Farris said. “Unfortunately, they burst my bubble and said I would just be watching the carts and making sure they were being charged.”

For the past five years, Farris has been working at the driving range, a place she looks forward to spending time at each year.

“I get to see all of the players,” Farris said.

“They’re wonderful and always thanking us for volunteering and working.

The driving range is a great opportunity to be there and experience everything.”

Each year, Farris and one of her close friends, Steve Partain, coordinate to make sure they work the same shift to catch up and share a passion for the game of golf.

award in July at the Georgia Association of Career and Technical Education Summer Conference. He has also been nominated for the GACTE Administrator of the Year award.

“Providing career and technical education is invaluable to our society and daily lives. The programs we provide reflect career fields that cannot be outsourced and serve as the backbone of a strong economy,” Hall said. “Industry is in high demand for highly skilled employees and citizens, and CTE certainly answers the call of industry.”

Volunteers

“It’s wonderful because we get to see each other once a year,” Farris said.

“I met Steve and we just clicked. We actually worked the FedEx Cup (Tour Championship) tournament together as well.”

A normal day of volunteering consists of Farris making the drive from Buford, which takes just under 30 minutes, for a shift that lasts from noon to 7 p.m.

She then checks in at the volunteer tent, which includes a spread of food for volunteers to eat for lunch and a place to relax away from the sun.

At the driving range, Far-

ris will fill buckets of balls for players to perfect their swing, pick up empty buckets or tees that are left at the range, and collect golf balls on the pitching green.

“I have to work the afternoon shift,” Farris said. “I’m not a morning person and it helps that the commute isn’t that long for me.”

One of the benefits that Farris has because of volunteering is the ability to play the course for a reduced rate of $50 per round.

Juli Jackson is another volunteer who looks forward to each year the tournament comes to TPC Sugarloaf.

Jackson, who lives near

the golf course at Sugarloaf Country Club, has been the neighborhood representative for the golf tournament since it began.

“I really had never done an event like this before, so I was initially hesitant to do this,” Jackson said. “They wanted somebody that lived in the neighborhood to help out and asked me to help out in the volunteer tent.”

Jackson, who says she has a handicap score of 15, spends a good amount of time playing golf and despite not working on the course has found enjoyment in her current position.

“If we didn’t have the volunteers, we couldn’t put on the tournament,” Jackson said. “Over the years, there has been an emphasis on making sure the volunteers feel appreciated and it’s a big compliment to be recognized.”

Jackson said tournament week is a hectic and busy time that involves her waking up at 5 a.m. to get ready for the first golfers to arrive.

“Normally, we’re here two hours before the first tee time and don’t leave here until around 7 p.m.,” Jackson said. “It’s a long day, but well worth it.”

One of the best experiences she has had over the years is meeting other volunteers and talking with players.

“The players are really laid back, so you have the opportunity to take pictures with them and talk with them,” Jackson said. “This is a really impactful event not only to the club, but also the community and the charities involved. It’s a great use of my time.”

The homicide unit was then called to take over the investigation.

“We do believe it was domestic in nature at this time,” Smith said. “They

were married. What we have learned is that they were having marital issues, so we do believe it was domestic.”

Smith said that while the investigation is ongoing, based on what the children said, detectives “believe

(the mother) was injured or shot before (the father) brought them up to the leasing office.”

“We believe that he probably did go back and shoot himself at that point, but we’re still not sure and it is still an active investi-

gation,” Smith said.

The children are staying with family members, Smith said.

“We are always saddened to learn of incidents such as this, especially when young children are involved,” he said.

Hice receives Award for Conservative Excellence U.S. Rep. Jody Hice was recently recognized by a national conservative group for his votes on items such as a repeal of Obamacare and defunding Planned Parenthood.

The American Conservative Union Foundation presented Hice with its Award for Conservative Excellence. The organization gives the award to members of Congress who support “conservative principles of liberty, personal responsibility, traditional values and a strong national defense” in their legislative duties.

“It is a privilege to stand alongside the American Conservative Union as we work to cut taxes, reduce onerous regulations, secure our border, defend life, and repeal Obamacare,” Hice said in a statement. “I look forward to continued collaboration with the ACU to

Chabad launches campaign to Duluth police arrest teens fund Jewish enrichment center in possible car theft ring

By Isabel Hughes

Chabad of Gwinnett is planning to build a 12,000-square-foot enrichment center, which will include a prayer and gathering hall, in Peachtree Corners, pictured in this rendering. (Special Photo)

Each 4-inch by 8-inch brick will be engraved — space is limited to three lines of text — and then become a part of the new building, Lerman said.

While the legacy campaign is a new idea, the building has been planned for years and will not be Chabad of Gwinnett’s first location.

In September 2001, the Lermans founded a Chabad center in Norcross to serve the Jewish population in Gwinnett and Hall counties.

Since then, they have established a network of Sunday schools, adult education programs, family holiday events, private counseling and other programs that serve both Jewish and non-Jewish locals.

With the county and surrounding area’s growing Jewish population — Chabad of Forsyth County opened its first synagogue last June and plans to build a larger building in the next few years — the Lermans said now is the time to begin raising funds for the project.

“The Chabad of Gwinnett that Rabbi Yossi and Esther have built is amazing, as it offers a tremendous number of Jewish programs,” said Scott Frank, chair of the building campaign. “The new building will allow the Chabad to grow its programs and serve many more people in the Gwinnett community, surrounding areas and, additionally, throughout the world.”

Esther Lerman said the goal is to enrich people’s lives.

“Our ultimate goal is to fulfill the divine mission of enriching the quality of the lives of people — materially, emotionally and spiritually,” she said.

Chabad said it hopes to break ground on the new building next year, though the capital campaign will likely last another couple of years and the building will not be complete for several years after.

The organization is working with engineers and is in the planning stages of the project.

Local Jews will have a new place to worship in Gwinnett County if a proposed 12,000-square-foot Chabad of Gwinnett enrichment center comes to fruition.

Rabbi Yossi Lerman and his wife, Esther Lerman, announced last summer that Chabad had launched a capital campaign to raise funds for the building, which will be located on Spalding Drive in Peachtree Corners.

The center will include a mikvah — a miniature swimming pool used for purifying rituals and to convert non-Jews to Judaism — a prayer and gathering hall, a library, classrooms, a kitchen and a rooftop garden. It will sit on commercially zoned land Chabad purchased a decade ago.

More recently, the couple announced that local Jews will be able to be a part of the building construction once it commences as part of the organization’s Legacy Brick Campaign, an opportunity for Jewish residents of Gwinnett and surrounding areas to have a free brick engraved with their family’s name that will become part of the new building.

Rabbi Lerman said the campaign is intended to foster a feeling of belonging within the Jewish community.

“We are doing this because we want every Jew to know that they belong and are an integral part of the Jewish family,” he said. “Our goal has always been to increase peace, harmony and joy, and this seems like such a meaningful way to achieve that.”

Sofia Padilla, Amalia Pelley, Yasmine Phun, Margaret Rhoades, Michael Schlenk, Elizabeth Testamark and Zoe Vinyard were selected to represent the program in New York City.

In her second year as

a teacher at Collins Hill, Pledger has spent time finding concerts for her students to perform at.

“The choral program has a lot of strong traditions and a strong foundations and leadership,” Pledger said.

“I wanted to come in here and make it more contemporary and modern for our students.”

The group was extended an invitation to perform in New York following a video of their performance being posted on YouTube.

“The organizers at DCINY contacted me and told me they wanted us to come after hearing our choir on YouTube,” Pledger said.

“We initially planned on going to New York next year, but when we found out it was Eric Whitacre music, we had to take this opportunity.”

As part of the concert preparation, the group has been required to learn a total of nine additional songs they will perform. To add to the intensity, the group performance is being streamed on the DCINY’s Facebook Live.

“The fact that it is being recorded is going to bring out the best in us,” Testamark said. “We don’t have any option and have to give it our best.”

One of the songs that senior Michael Schlenk said he is looking forward to performing is “Rumors,” based on how their rehearsals have gone with it.

Schlenk’s passion for music began when he used it as an escape from negative aspects of his life.

“I was bullied a lot and battled depression,” Schlenk

said. “Music and especially chorus music got me through it and it’s one of the reason why I want to go on this trip.”

After finding out three months ago they would have to learn a handful of songs, Testamark said fellow members spent anywhere from 5 to 8 hours per week outside of school reviewing the lyrics and making sure they had the songs down pat.

The group made the trip Thursday morning and flew to New York. They found time to tour Times Square and Broadway.

“This is an opportunity that doesn’t come once in a lifetime for many programs,” Pledger said. “We’re so blessed to have been selected to represent our school, county and our state in this performance.”

Gwinnett 200’s STORY VAULT project was launched to commemorate Gwinnett County’s bicentennial by recording the stories of the people who live, work, and play in Gwinnett.

Panel: Fair housing issues remain 50 years after law’s passage

By Curt Yeomans

curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

Fifty years after the Fair Housing Act was passed, a need for education about what it says still exists, according to Georgia Commission on Equal Housing Opportunity Director of Fair Housing Allona Cross.

She told a room full of real estate agents at Lawrenceville City Hall on Friday that some real estate professionals, or even housing providers, may not be aware of everything required under the law.

“I’ve noticed in the course of investigations at our office that housing owners, primarily small business owners that are in the business of real estate,

lack the resources and they are not knowledgeable on fair housing laws,” Cross said.

Cross was one of the speakers at a program

hosted by the Northeast Atlanta Metro Association of Realtors, also known as NAMAR, to highlight the 50th Anniversary of the Fair Housing Act on Friday. The

TV HOST & HOME EXPERT

act hit the half-century mark Wednesday.

NAMAR President Shaunette Young said it is important for real estate agents to understand the Fair Housing Act because of its purpose to remove barriers to home ownership.

“Unequivocally, (it is) one of the most important of our civil rights acts because it truly encompasses race, religion, familial status (and) sex,” she said. “Regardless of anything, it ensures we all have a right to fair housing.”

The program included a panel discussion on the act, including what its intent is, how it works and what issues could cause someone — even unintentionally — to violate it.

In addition to Cross, the panel included Women’s

Council of Realtors member and fair housing expert Deborah Gilmore, National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals President Raquel Lavender, Asian Real Estate Association of America Atlanta Metro Chapter President Helen Nguyen, Lawrenceville Housing Authority Executive Director Lejla Slowinski and Gwinnett Chamber President Dan Kaufman.

Although the Fair Housing Act was put into place 50 years ago to prevent discrimination in housing, Gilmore said the need to protect a person’s access to that right remains.

“Yes, we have come a long way, but would you believe people are still discriminating?” she said.

Several panelists echoed those sentiments.

“There are still people who think the Asian community is not qualified for housing just because of our race,” Nguyen said.

Slowinski said discrimination takes place in the loan process as well, using lawsuits filed against Wells Fargo as an example. Minority families are steered toward certain types of loans regardless of their income level, she said.

“You could have an African-American family making $150,000 a year and they are still steered toward the same loan products as a family that makes $40,000,” she said. “What that results in is a home ownership gap (between white and black people).”

Mitsubishi Electric Classic

Roquan Smith an added attraction at Stripers game

By David Friedlander david.friedlander@gwinnettdailypost.com

LAWRENCEVILLE — With game time temperature near 80 degrees and a cool breeze, Saturday was a nearly perfect night for baseball.

But the third game of the Gwinnett Stripers’ four-game weekend series with the Rochester Red Wings wasn’t the only attraction that brought more than 6,000 fans to Coolray Field.

A chance to meet University of Georgia All-American linebacker Roquan Smith, who took some time to sign autographs for fans and throw out the ceremonial first pitch before Saturday’s game, was also a big sellSteve Flesch poses with the trophy after winning the Mitsubishi Electric Classic in a playoff Saturday at TPC Sugarloaf in Duluth.

DULUTH — When Steve Flesch birdied the 10th hole during the third round of the 2018 Mitsubishi Electric Classic, he stepped into a five-way tie for first place.

The logjam included 64-yearold Jay Haas, University of Georgia graduate Scott Parel, long-driver Wes Short Jr. and World Golf Hall of Famer Bernhard Langer. The pack was thick and Flesch fell out of it after a bogey on No. 16.

It had been more than 10 years since Flesch’s last profession win, and that amount of time allowed doubt to creep into Flesch’s mind regarding whether or not he’d win a professional tournament again.

“There’s a reason I was doing TV for four years,” Flesch said. “It wasn’t that I’d lost my passion for the game. I was just sideways about how I was approaching things. Having a second chance and playing the PGA Tour Champions has reignited that flame and my desire.”

It took Flesch making birdie on the 18th hole three consecutive times, but he persevered through his mental exhaustion for his first-ever PGA Tour Champions win in his second season on the tour.

Just before it got too dark.

“Honestly, it’s been harder than I anticipated winning on this tour,” Flesch said. “The guys are so good. That Langer guy is hard to beat. Once again today he was right there. It’s fun, it really was fun to come down the stretch with him and Jay, and played the entire day, 36 holes with him, and you learn

You learn why they’ve been so successful, especially Bernhard.

Just thrilled to death.”

Flesch fell one stroke behind tournament leader Bernhard Langer after making bogey on No. 16 in the final round on Saturday at TPC Sugarloaf. Langer had a chance to put away the championship on No. 17 with a birdie putt but left the door open for a sudden-death playoff when he made par on both the No. 17 and No. 18 holes.

Langer hit out of a bunker and settled for par on the final regulation hole.

PEACHTREE CORNERS — Expectations can be funny things in sports. They don’t often work out as planned.

It’s doubtful anybody understands that idea — in both the positive and negative — better than Wesleyan’s baseball team.

A 2017 season that began with high hopes and aspirations of challenging for a Class A (Private) state championship ended with a disappointing 15-16 record, and an even more disappointing first-round exit from the state playoffs.

Fast forward a year, and coach Brian Krehmeyer is the first to admit he didn’t expect much from this team given the talent level and varsity experience returning.

Yet after the Wolves’ 9-4 victory at Fellowship Christian on Saturday, the Wolves have ended the 2018 regular season with a surprising 20-2 mark as they head into Region 5-A’s modified tournament.

And standing at No. 6 in the most recent GHSA power rankings for Class A (Private), Wesleyan figures to have a strong seed when the state playoffs commence in about two weeks.

“What a difference a year makes,” said Krehmeyer, who has guided the Wolves

Brookwood has one more region match next week against Lakeside-DeKalb in which a win would give the Broncos second place, while a loss would send the Broncos into a three-way tie with Lakeside and Norcross.

The win on Friday was Parkview’s fifth straight shutout and its 10th of the season.

Brookwood boys 1, Parkview 0 Brookwood’s boys soccer team desperately needed a victory Friday night.

With its last win coming exactly one month ago over Berkmar and its playoff hopes on the ropes, Brookwood faced its biggest rival at Parkview and went home with a 1-0 win.

The shutout not only kept Brookwood in the running for the No. 2 seed in Region 7-AAAAAAA, it also gave outgoing head coach Stephen George a win in his final Battle of Five Forks.

“This is probably one of the best rivalries in the state and with me leaving next year (for Mill Creek), I couldn’t picture this any other way,” George said.

“The guys did everything I asked of them. We knew our backs were against the wall (in the region playoff race) and they knew they could do it. They executed perfectly.”

The two teams played an even first half for a 0-0 tie at the break, when Brookwood stormed out in the second half with three strong attacks in the first four minutes.

The first of those two turned into near misses, but the third paid dividends when Angel Guevara worked free for an open shot from the left side.

Guevara’s offering was rejected by a diving Max Carlson, but the ball bounced off his hands back into the box where Harbin Ji cleaned up the loose ball with an easy goal with 36:36 to play.

Even though Brookwood (7-8-1, 3-2) was unable to find the back of the net again, the offensive pressure didn’t let up, preventing Parkview (10-7-1, 3-3) from mounting a serious counter.

Brookwood has one more region contest Tuesday at home against LakesideDeKalb, where a win would secure second place in the region. Parkview, which has concluded region play, will be at home on Wednesday against Etowah for its Senior Night.

Three-game sweep of North has Mill Creek in prime position will.hammock @gwinnettdailypost.com

539996-1

HOSCHTON — After pitching ruled their first two meetings this week — they combined for four runs in those 14 innings — the Mill Creek and North Gwinnett bats finally got going in Game 3 Friday night.

And though the game played out differently, the victorious baseball team didn’t change.

Mill Creek rallied from a pair of early deficits and

completed a three-game sweep of North Gwinnett in a key Region 6-AAAAAAA series that concluded Friday.

The Hawks (22-4-1, 14-1) now sport a three-game lead over North (19-8, 11-4) and Peachtree Ridge (21-5, 11-4).

Mill Creek, which hasn’t lost at home since Feb. 24 to North Paulding, needs just one win in three tries against Peachtree Ridge next week to clinch the region title.

“I don’t want to see (North) anymore,” Mill Creek head coach Doug Jones said. “He’s got a really

good ball club. Coming into today, it was 2-1, 1-0, with crazy good pitching. They showed tonight what kind of hitters they have. I’m just proud of our kids for competing at the plate, too. We’ve been harping on it, working on it and I know they’re trying. But we finally got some fruits for our labor.”

Jones hopes his team got a dose of confidence from three close victories over a strong North team. Wednesday’s victory featured a onehitter from Davis Sharpe and Monday’s win saw Brandon

Blume and Alaska Abney keep the North hitters off balance.

Abney notched the save Monday and again Friday, going two innings to hold the lead for winning pitcher Justin Parish. Parish allowed five runs and six hits in his five innings.

North led 4-1 Friday after the top of the second inning, but Mill Creek scored four in the bottom of the second and never trailed again.

“I thought the kids were resilient,” Jones said.

“We got behind twice and

answered, just continued to make good swings. I was proud of Justin. He didn’t have a great night, but he battled. He gave us five innings with the lead and got us to Alaska. We feel good if that happens.”

The Bulldogs were within 6-5 after the top of the fifth, but RBI singles from Mitchell Shreiner and Blaze McCauley stretched the lead back out to 8-5. Shreiner finished 2-for-3 and scored a run.

Alek Boychuk capped the North series with a 2-for-3

night, including a home run, three RBIs and two runs scored. Brendan York added a 2-for-4 effort with an RBI. “We’ve just kind of focused on one game at a time and when we got to region, it was win the series,” Jones said. “Don’t think sweep, just win every series. That’s been the focus.”

Brandt Pancer (4-4) took the loss to North, which was led offensively by Lavoisier Fisher (2-for-2, two RBIs), Josh Shuler (2-for-2, two doubles) and Jayden Perrine (2-for-3, RBI).

Stripers fall to Rochester 4-2

By David Friedlander david.friedlander @gwinnettdailypost.com

LAWRENCEVILLE — The Gwinnett Stripers tried to change the script from their first two games against the Rochester Red Wings in Game 3 of the weekend series.

The good news for the hosts was they didn’t have to go extra innings this time.

The bad news was that their ninth-inning rally came up just short, which wasted another strong starting pitching effort — this one by Matt Wisler — in a 4-2 Rochester win Saturday night before 6,695 fans at Coolray Field.

Wisler took a no-hitter into the sixth inning but gave up single runs in his final two innings of work, including Brock Stassi’s solo home run.

And a two-run uprising in the ninth, keyed by the second of Dustin Peterson’s two hits on the night, wasn’t enough to counter two hits each from Rochester’s Gregorio Petit and Ryan LaMarre, which helped send Gwinnett to its fourth straight loss.

The Stripers continued to have trouble at the plate, managing just five hits off Aaron Slegers (10) and two relievers, but the late outburst left them hopeful they may be on the verge of breaking out of their early-season team slump.

“Hits are contagious,” said Stripers infielder Sean Kazmar Jr., who reached a

milestone with his fifthinning double. It was his 438th career hit in a Gwinnett uniform to best Jose Constanza’s record for the most franchise hits since it moved from Richmond in 2009.

“We’re kind of in a little funk altogether as a team.

But if we can do what we did in that last inning, hopefully we can get things turned around.”

Wisler (0-1) held Rochester bats equally quiet throughout the early innings, pitching around a one-out walk to LaMarre in the first inning and retiring the next 15 straight hitters in order to take a no-hitter into the sixth.

But after striking out Leonardo Regniatto, the 6-foot-3, 215-pound righthander got a pitch up to Petit, who laced a sinking liner into center field.

Ronald Acuna Jr. sprinted in an attempt to make a diving catch, but the ball bounced in front of him, and then past him all the

way to the warning track, making Rochester’s first hit of the game a triple.

Nick Buss then followed with a drive to the warning track in center for a sacrifice fly that easily scored Petit and put the Red Wings up 1-0.

Stassi followed an inning later with his solo homer just over the wall in right-center, the only other blemish on an otherwise stellar start from Wisler, who allowed just three hits and the two earned runs with eight strikeouts and one walk in seven innings of work.

Unfortunately for the Stripers, Slegers was just as good, limiting Gwinnett to just three hits with five strikeouts over six innings.

The Red Wings then provided a little insurance by greeting Stripers reliever Chase Whitley, down from Atlanta on an injury rehab assignment, with four straight hits in the eighth, including the second RBI of the night

from Buss on a bunt single and a run-scoring single

by LaMarre, to push the lead to 4-0.

Some excellent defense

by Carlos Franco at first and Kazmar at second helped prevent further damage, but those runs turned out to be important after the Gwinnett offense finally came to life in the ninth against Adalberto Mejia.

The Rochester lefthander, who had already pitched two scoreless innings, issued a leadoff walk to Johan Camargo, while Rob Brantly reached on a throwing error to put Gwinnett in business with nobody out.

Franco then blooped a single into left field to bring home Camargo and get the Stripers on the board at 4-1 and bring the tying run to the plate.

The Stripers still had a chance two outs later after Peterson’s RBI single to left, which cut the deficit to 4-2 and brought the potential winning run into the batter’s box.

But on a 3-2 pitch, pinch-hitter Jaff Decker popped up to short, allowing Matt Magill to lock down his first save of the season and Rochester to secure its third straight win on its current road trip.

The series concludes today at 1 p.m., weather permitting, with Lawrenceville native and Brookwood grad Lucas Sims (0-0) set to take the mound for the Stripers against Red Wings righthander Fernando Romero.

GGC baseball sweeps Lindenwood-Belleville From Staff Reports LAWRENCEVILLE — Georgia Gwinnett College baseball senior Chris Jones tied a program single-game school record with five hits in the nightcap as the No. 2-ranked Grizzlies completed a three-game series sweep against Lindenwood University-Belleville with two victories Saturday at the Grizzly Baseball Complex.

For the action on the field, the Grizzlies (34-8) earned a 3-2 victory in the first game before scoring six runs in their final two innings to capture the second contest 10-4.

Jones went 5-for-5 with a pair of runs scored to lead the team’s 18-hit attack in the second game.

Sophomore Hunter Dollander tossed seven strong innings and scattered six hits in picking up the victory in the opening game’s start-

Senior Ryan Lark hit a home run in the third inning of the first game to open the scoring. Senior Tony Salvaggio connected on a run-scoring double to tie the contest, 2-2, in the fourth inning.

The hosts took the lead for good one inning later on an RBI ground out from Jones to score freshman Cord Johnson.

In the second game, GGC led 3-1 after the second inning before the Lynx batted back behind a three-run sixth inning to grab the lead.

The Grizzlies quickly

answered in the home half of the inning on a double from junior Jordan Tylski. The team broke a 4-4 tie by scoring two runs in the seventh and having four more runs touching home in the eighth inning. Back-to-back runscoring singles from juniors Onassis Matos and Brandon Frazier provided the scoring in the seventh inning.

GGC softball sweeps Truett-McConnell LAWRENCEVILLE — The top-ranked Georgia Gwinnett College softball team picked up its 20th consecutive victory behind 6-3 and 4-2 wins against Truett-McConnell University on Saturday at the Grizzly Softball Complex.

On the diamond, GGC jumped out to a big lead in the opening game with a three-run home run by junior Brianna Fickes in the first

inning. Junior Aubree Cox scored on an RBI single from sophomore Quentin Staton later in the inning.

The Grizzlies (39-2) added runs in the fourth and fifth innings during a ninehit offensive attack.

In the second game, Cox connected on a two-run home run in the second inning to turn an early deficit into a 2-1 advantage. A sacrifice fly from senior Niki Cook and run-scoring single

by Fickes in the fifth inning gave GGC a 4-1 lead.

Truett-McConnell brought the game-winning run to the plate in the first contest and had the gametying run at the plate in the second game. The Bears (30-14) are the last team to defeat the Grizzlies when the two teams split a doubleheader in Cleveland, Ga. March 13.

four RBIs. Dansby Swanson had three hits and two RBIs, and Nick Markakis hit a two-run double during a six-run third inning for the Braves that knocked Cubs starter Jose Quintana out of the game.

Quintana surrendered seven runs on seven hits in 2 1/3 innings.

Braves starter Sean Newcomb allowed two earned runs on six hits with seven strikeouts and four walks in 5 1/3 innings. He got in trouble in the sixth inning, loading the bases and walking in a run, before exiting.

Reliever Daniel Winkler got out of the inning by striking out Ian Happ and getting Efren Navarro to line out to left field.

Albert Almora hit a solo home run and made a diving catch in the first inning to help the Cubs get out of a jam.

“I’ll be honest with you. If it wasn’t for Roquan, I probably wouldn’t have wanted to come as much,” said Zach Thompson, a Lawrenceville resident and Georgia football fan. “But since he’s here, and I’m huge into autographs, I thought it would be a great opportunity to meet a really great Georgia Bulldog. …

This is the first time I’ve ever gotten to meet a Georgia player in general. So getting to meet him and shake his hand is a really cool experience I will never forget.”

Thompson was among several thousand fans who waited about 20 minutes in line to meet Smith, who is projected by most mock drafts to be a first-round selection in the 2018 NFL Draft in about two weeks.

Alpharetta resident Rodney Canada had already planned to come see the Stripers play several times this season, especially since his son works for the club.

However, when his daughter Kenlie heard about Smith’s appearance, she made sure to convince her dad that Saturday was a game they needed to attend.

“When I found out Roquan was going to be here, I freaked out,” Kenlie Canada said. “We had to wait (in line) about 20 minutes, but it was worth it.”

Krehmeyer credits most with the creation of a new atmosphere around the team.

And it is through those players that he has encouraged a different dynamic between the players and the coaches, in addition to that between the players and each other.

“These are guys who have been in the program since they were in middle school, and this is kind of their chance to leave a legacy,” Krehmeyer said of his seniors. “Their legacy may not necessarily be on the record board, but their legacy is more in the culture that they are hoping to shape (with) their leadership.

“I think what is so special, and veteran coaches will see this, (is) the most talented team does not always win the most games. It’s more (teams that are) playing together, and the teams that just have that chemistry.”

The difference is definitely notable among the players themselves.

“We felt the need to set a different tone from last year, whether it’s a different attitude to practice or games,” said Bursa, who was hitting .286 with a homer and 14 RBIs through his first 14 games. “I think it’s very different this year. We’re all best friends.”

Exactly how far that newfound chemistry and reliance on team baseball over individual performances can take the Wolves remains to be seen.

However, the results so far have left everyone with a newfound sense of confidence that the team can make a deep postseason run, though its immediate focus is on the first steps.

“The sky’s the limit, really,” Bursa said. “As Stewart said, if you’d told me (at the beginning of the season) we’d be 19-2 at this point, I’d have said you’re crazy.

But I think our priority right now is definitely getting a home playoff (series in the early rounds). That would be pretty cool.”

Gladiators

back from the AHL this week. Lane is Atlanta’s only player with more than 20 goals (32) this season.

Florida has five, including John McCarron with 29 and Stephen MacAulay with 28. The Everblades also have three more, Warning among them, right on the cusp of that benchmark.

“They ended the year on a 10-game winning streak,” Weber said. “The last three games of the year, they didn’t play the same lineup once. We dressed nine D for the last game of the year.

“I want us to embrace the underdog mentality.

We know our individual pieces aren’t as sexy as their individual pieces, but I think when all our pieces are working in the same direction, we can play with anybody.”

Atlanta did get back an important piece in defenseman Ben Danford, who has been out since an injury Feb. 10 and made a fasterthan-expected recovery. His return necessitated some tough decisions for Weber regarding the playoff roster.

Versatility was a chief concern and, with a glut of defensemen, he stuck with a few who could play forward.

“Everybody is a pro and knows it’s a grind,” Pierog said. “It’s 72 games, but now we’re where it really counts. Everybody in this locker room knows 60 minutes is mandatory and everybody will be coming out to play harder because it’s playoffs.”

The Gladiators are in the playoffs for the first time since 2013 and don’t want to see it cut short.

“After the last game I was talking to a bunch of fans and they were all excited,” Pierog said. “We’re all excited. We just want to get it going.”

world Mosque shooter says he was motivated by refugee policy

A man who killed six worshippers at a Quebec City mosque told an investigator he carried out the January 2017 attack after seeing reports the Canadian government would welcome more refugees into the country, according to CNN partner CBC. A video of Alexandre Bissonnette’s interrogation was played in court Friday during the third day of his sentencing hearing, CBC reported. Bissonnette pleaded guilty to six counts of first-degree murder and six counts of attempted murder in March.

In the interrogation video, Bissonnette said he was watching TV reports about the Canadian government’s policy of welcoming refugees.

“The Canadian government was, you know, going to take in more refugees, you know, those who couldn’t go to the United States would end up here,” Bissonnette told Quebec City police Sgt. Steve Girard during an interrogation. “I just lost it.”

Nigeria president: Disagreement delaying release of Chibok girls Negotiation talks between the Nigerian government and Boko Haram militants on the release of the remaining Chibok girls have been set back, President Muhammadu Buhari said.

A disagreement between members of the terror group is responsible for the breakdown in negotiations, Buhari said in a statement Friday.

“Unfortunately, the negotiations between the government and Boko Haram have suffered some unexpected setbacks, owing mainly to a lack of agreement among their abductors.” Buhari said.

Puerto Ricans who fled will be reunited with pets Puerto Ricans forced to leave their pets behind in the wake of Hurricane Maria are about to be reunited with their furry loved ones in Tampa Bay. Saritzia Sanchez has a weekly ritual: a video call between her and family in Puerto Rico. It’s been five months since Sanchez has seen not only her husband but also her five precious dogs.

She was forced to leave the six of them on the island after Hurricane Maria hit.

Both husband and wife refused to abandon the dogs.

In a difficult decision and despite no water and no electricity, Misael Resto stayed behind caring for them while Sanchez flew to the mainland for job opportunities.

But soon they’ll be reunited thanks to a partnership between Puerto Rico Animal Unite and several animal rescue organizations like SPCA Tampa Bay. “They are feeling displaced almost double time so this is an opportunity for them to feel like they are reconnecting with what makes home special,” said Martha Boden, CEO of SPCA Tampa Bay. — From wire reports

nation Ky. governor says strike left children vulnerable to sexual assault

Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin says children were left vulnerable to harm, sexual assault and drugs as a result of public school closures throughout the state Friday to allow teachers and supporters to protest at the state’s Capitol.

“I guarantee you somewhere in Kentucky today a child was sexually assaulted that was left at home because there was nobody there to watch them,” the Republican governor told reporters Friday afternoon, according to CNN affiliate WDRB. “I guarantee you somewhere today, a child was physically harmed or ingested poison because they were home alone because a single parent didn’t have any money to take care of them.”

Bevin went on to say that “some were introduced to drugs for the first time because they were vulnerable and left alone.”

March for Science draws smaller crowds; attendees still passionate Crowds turned out in cities around the world Sat-

urday for the second annual March for Science.

Saturday’s crowds were notably smaller than those that showed up for the first march in April 2017, but attendees expressed as much optimism and hope as they did last year.

According to the nonpartisan March for Science organization, the main event was set to take place in Washington, while more than 230 satellite events were scheduled around the world in different forms, be they marches, rallies or science exhibitions.

“There definitely aren’t as many people present this year, but the people and speakers here are equally as passionate to help advocate for science,” said Mackenzie Mittleman, 24, who attended the march in Washington for a second year.

Participants aimed to hold

public officials accountable and push them to implement policy based on scientific evidence, according to the march’s website.

Washington’s event began Saturday morning with teach-ins, expos and a rally that featured speakers and musical performances before participants planned to march to the U.S. Capitol.

Teen says he was asking directions when Michigan man shot at him A Michigan man is out on bail after police said he fired a shotgun at a teenager who had stopped at his house to ask directions.

Jeffrey Craig Zeigler, 53, was charged Friday with assault with intent to murder and possession of a firearm in the commission of a

felony.

During Zeigner’s arraignment, Judge Julie Nicholson entered a plea of not guilty for him.

The teen’s mother told CNN affiliate WDIV she thought there was a racial component to the case. The teen is black and the man is white.

“It definitely was a hate crime,” she said.

Brennan Walker, 14, said he was walking alone to school Thursday after he missed the bus. As he trekked the 4 miles to Rochester High School in Rochester Hills, he got lost and knocked on the doors of several houses, he said.

The teen said he went up to one home and knocked on the door a few times.

A woman came to the door, yelling at him, he told WDIV. “I was trying to explain to that I wanted to get directions to go to my school,” he said. The man eventually came out with a shotgun and fired one shot at the teen who was running away.

The teen said he fled when he saw the man with the shotgun. The teen was not wounded.

Deputies responded to a call of a male trying to break into a house, the sheriff’s department said in a news release. Both the boy and Zeigler were taken to a police station and questioned.

Zeigler was arrested.

Facebook has spent $20 million on Zuckerberg’s security since ’15

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg took home just $1 for his annual base salary last year, but the company shelled out nearly $9 million on his security and private planes.

A new public filing shows Facebook significantly increased the amount it spent on keeping Zuckerberg safe in 2017, upping such expenses more than 50 percent from the $5.8 million it spent in 2016.

All told, the company has spent about $20 million on Zuckerberg’s security and travel on private planes since 2015.

The company said the cost of Zuckerberg’s “overall security program” was a way to address “threats to his safety arising directly as a result of his position as our founder, Chairman, and CEO.” “We require these security measures for the company’s benefit because of the importance of Mr. Zuckerberg to Facebook,” the filing states.

His private plane expenses include fees, fuel, crew and catering costs. And Facebook pays for security personnel and security systems at his residences, according to the filing.

Philadelphia police chief defends officers in Starbucks arrests

By Kelly McCleary CNN

Philadelphia Police Commissioner Richard Ross is defending the actions of officers seen in a viral video arresting two men at a Starbucks.

The video, which has racked up millions of views since it was posted to Twitter on Thursday, shows Philadelphia police officers arresting two black men inside a Starbucks location.

Must read Melissa DePino, who posted the video, wrote, “The police were called because these men hadn’t ordered anything. They were waiting for a friend to show up, who did as they were taken out in handcuffs for doing nothing.”

In the video, a man is seen telling an officer that he was meeting the two men there and asking what they did to warrant police being

called.

Others off screen are heard saying, “They didn’t do anything.”

Ross said Saturday his officers “did absolutely nothing wrong.”

Ross recorded a statement on Facebook Live in which he said Starbucks employees called 911 to report a trespassing complaint.

The employees told officers the two men wanted to use the restroom but were told the facilities are only for paying customers. The Starbucks employees then asked

the men to leave, but they refused, Ross said.

Officers responded and asked the men three times to “politely to leave the location because they were being asked to leave by employees because they were trespassing.” When the men again refused to leave, they were arrested “without incident,” Ross said.

The men were taken to a police station and released when it became clear Starbucks didn’t want to press charges.

“They did a service that they were called to do,” Ross said of the officers. “And if you think about it logically, that if a business calls and they say that someone is here that I no longer wish to be in my business, (officers) now have a legal obligation to carry out their duties. And they did just that.”

Ross, who is black, references his own experiences while making his case, saying, “As an AfricanAmerican male, I am very aware of implicit bias.”

New section of Gwinnett Parks and Recreation seeks to promote county’s past

lame it on the Vikings. Or attribute it to them in a not so derogatory manner.

Either way, Nathan Griswell’s fascination with the past began with the exploits of the Nordic explorers and warriors, as well as the ancient Celtic people of the British isles. He got interested in them as a teenager and now does occasional presentations on them at the Gwinnett Environmental and Heritage Center in Buford.

The Vikings are hardly the only historical people that he can do a presentation on, though.

Griswell can play many roles at Gwinnett County’s historical sites. It just depends on the day as to who he will be. He could be a Revolutionary War-era figure, a Civil War soldier or a Depression-era farmer.

“Since I was probably about 12 years old, I just started digging into the languages, the culture, the landscape, the history (of the Vikings),” Griswell said. “And that kind of bled into college, which was when I first started putting outfits together to go to different re-enactment events, Renaissance fairs and things like that, kind of informally.

“And then that took on a whole new level when I came on with the county (four years ago) and started doing it for a living.”

Griswell is one of the employees in Gwinnett’s Natural and Cultural Resources Section that was created last fall to come up with educational programming for visitors to the county’s historic and natural sites. In a year where Gwinnett is highlighting its history in the build up to its bicentennial in December, these employees are playing a pivotal role in programming.

“I feel like we have an opportunity to expand programs,” Cultural Resources Manager Catherine Long said. “Of course with the bicentennial coming, it’s a wonderful opportunity for us to really highlight how Gwinnett County’s history has changed over time and make it relevant to to-

day’s society because we’re looking at culture.

“We’re looking at how people worked, how they lived, how they played, how their children learned and went to school, so those are some of the main things that we can all learn from and relate to.”

Employees lead school group tours at McDaniel Farm Park and the Lawrenceville Female Seminary and Isaac Adair House site. They’ve led the walking tours in downtown Lawrenceville that will wrap up next weekend. They’ve done programming at the Yellow River Post Office site near Lilburn too.

These employees stage events such as the recent Let Freedom Ring Festival at the seminary and Isaac Adair House.

They were even present at Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners Chairwoman Charlotte Nash’s State of the County address in February.

They kind of stand out in a crowd when they do history-related work.

They’re the ones wearing outfits from bygone eras.

But don’t summarize them as ordinary docents.

“More so than docents, we really consider ourselves kind of interpretive educators because that’s what we’re doing — interpreting these resources that we have,” Griswell said.

History

•From Page 1C A mission to teach the community about history and nature The Natural and Cultural Resources Section is housed within the county’s Community Services Department.

Officially, it is included in the department’s Gwinnett County Parks and Recreation Division, but Long reports directly to Community Services Deputy Director Mark Patterson.

Its employees do educational programming work to increase and promote stewardship of parks and historic sites, because the county wanted to do more work in that area. Patterson said the seeds for the section began in May 2016 when a Natural and Cultural

Resource Management Unit was created in Parks and Recreation.

Patterson said Gwinnett’s early residents counted on the land around them to

Highlighting Gwinnett’s history With the county in the midst of its bicentennial year, its history is a major focus throughout the year.

That means a demand for history-related programming from Natural and Cultural Resources Section.

The county currently operates about five historic sites under the parks and recreation and Natural and Cultural Resources umbrellas, although some sites include more than one historic structure, or will include more than one in the future.

There’s the historic courthouse in downtown Lawrenceville, the female seminary and Isaac Adair house site that is not far

survive, using timber that was here to build a home or growing food on their land, and officials don’t want that environmental consciousness to be lost.

“They lived closely with the land,” Patterson said about the county’s early residents. “They understood the rhythms of nature and seasons. So we saw a need to make sure that thinking was carried forward in today’s day and age where we’re more technologically savvy, more inclined towards ‘If it’s not on a screen, we don’t necessary stay in tune to it.’

“So it was an opportunity to not only provide that long term sustainable stewardship that we were looking for with natural resources, but also be good stewards of these historic sites that we’ve acquired. We felt that there was a message that carried over so nicely to one another that you were not really telling the whole story if you only talked about one part of it.”

There are multiple sites the section does programming for, including historic

SCNI_ad_LC.indd 1

sites, conservation parks and parks that, while not technically conservation parks because they’re smaller, still offer conservation opportunities.

Technically, the section could be involved in many more county-owned parks.

“The programs themselves will not just be at those five historic sites,” Patterson said. “The programming as far any of this could go on at any one of the number of parks that Gwinnett currently has. It’s just that the program is going to be designed to fit that particular park.”

Due to its dual purpose of providing and promoting stewardship to the environment while also being stewards of the historic sites, the program educators who work in the section have a broad responsibility.

While one of the most visible things they do is dress up in historical outfits and lead history-based programs, they also do a lot of programming that ties into nature and how the land in Gwinnett benefits people.

“This year we’re developing a lot more nature-based programs so we’re doing stream studies, we’re doing owl pellet programs and bird studies,” said Griswell, who considers himself an environmental scientist as much as a history teacher.

One of the events that blends history and nature that the Natural and Cultural Resources Section has come up with is the Planting Festival from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

May 5 at McDaniel Farm Park, 3251 McDaniel Road in Duluth. Attendees will get to help plant corn and cotton at the old McDaniel farmhouse. They will also learn about composting and earthworms.

There will be some historical stuff, too, including blacksmith demonstrations and presentations about tools used in the past, tours of the farmhouse. Attendees can also participate in a craft activity where they can make an herb sachet.

Some of the other programs the section offers, particularly at McDaniel Farm Park, blend history and nature. School group programs at the farm offer kids a chance to take a tour of the house, but they also learn about different herbs and vegetables that would have been grown in a garden on a Gwinnett County farm, as well cotton growing in the Depression era and the impact of boll weevils.

“As you see the evolution of the section develop (in 2018), there will be day camps offered that will be both history and natural history-based,” Patterson said. “They’ll either deal with historical time period, a historical theme but they’ll also have some sort of natural area or nature-based component that will be additional to it.

“You’ll see public programming that will continue to expand, both weekend programs — that could be special events or one day classes — (or) some evening classes or evening hikes.”

4/5/18 5:47 PM

from the old courthouse, McDaniel Farm Park near Gwinnett Place Mall, the Yellow River Post Office on Five Forks Trickum Road, and Freeman’s Mill.

With so many historic sites and specific programming designed for each one, there’s a lot of information for the section’s educators to remember.

Long said the volume of information isn’t a problem.

“Our staff definitely has a passion for what they do, and when you have a passion and love for what you do, it comes alive,” she said.

“It’s not memorizing facts or dates or information like that. It’s truly your love of teaching and making sure others share your passion for what’s important.

“Each one of our sites has a different history, a different interpretive theme, so we’re able to really explore those themes at each site so that as you visit each site, you are getting a different experience.”

A key part of those programs for each site are the living history outfits that the section’s educators wear as well as artifacts and reproductions. They help tell the tale of Gwinnett’s story in an engaging way, Long said.

But Griswell said offering history in an engaging way means a lot of behindthe-scenes work that visitors to the parks and historic sites don’t see.

“We cover a real broad range of history,” Griswell said. “It means a lot of research for us, a lot of fun putting together outfits and it keeps it fresh for us so we’re not doing the same thing every day. For us as educators, it’s very dynamic. It keeps us on our toes and keeps us finding out new things all of the time.”

A particular historical area staff members are currently looking at, with the bicentennial in mind, is the post War of 1812 era, which is when Gwinnett County was established.

That means more research, but also more outfits for the staff to come up with.

“What we’re developing more now is early 1800s and kind of frontier life in Gwinnett County,” Griswell said. “I’ve got a new outfit that I’ve just put together for that where I portray a deerskin trader with the Creek and Cherokee. That’s a lot of fun.”

History waiting to be told The county has also acquired the Promised Land site south of Centerville but officials are still in the process of deciding its programming and figuring out how to restore the home to a period appropriate appearance, so it isn’t open to the public.

The county also acquired the Hudson-Nash house on Five Forks Trickum Road less than a year ago, but the plans call for it to be moved across the street to the Yellow River Post Office site.

When the renovated Freeman’s Mill Park reopens this summer after a renovation project, the Natural and Cultural Resources Section’s staff members will be the ones putting together and presenting its educational programs. That is expected to include new access to the mill and educational exhibits to show how a grist mill worked.

While that means even more work to put together those programs, Griswell is embracing the work as much as he embraced learning about Viking culture when he was a teenager.

“I enjoy it,” he said, “because it’s so much fun for me to dig into how people used to live and what were the things that mattered to them (and) How do you move around when you’re wearing all of these outlandish looking outfits by today’s standards? It’s a lot of fun.”

lifestyles

Legacy of kindness instilled by my parents When Daddy and Mama died, there was no great wealth left behind — though what they were able to leave was truly remarkable for two refugees from mountain poverty: a few pieces of property, including a small farm, some money in the bank and not one penny of debt. Neither had ever possessed a credit card.

More than the material possessions were two behaviors they instilled in us. They had raised us up on a strong, unyielding foundation of faith, saying repeatedly, “No matter what comes in this life, hold to the hand of God. Faith will see you through.”

It has.

in red in the Bible. We knew to obey.

When my second-grade teacher, the kind Mrs. Rudeseal, called Mama to tell her that for two weeks I had been giving my lunch money to a new girl — one who was Ronda raggedy with tangled hair Rich and frightened eyes — Mama hung up the phone Secondly, Daddy would and asked simply, “Why “lay down the law,” as he didn’t you tell us?” liked to call it, by comI shrugged. Daddy said manding, “Whenever you to “do without,” so I had see someone in need, done without lunch for give ’em what you have someone in need. It never and you do without.” He occurred to me to tell would pause with a level- them. The part I admire ing of his serious green most about my parents in eyes and say, “Ya’ hear this story is that neither me?” Those words — bragged on me or con“Ya’ hear me?” — were gratulated me. I had done akin to the words written as I was taught, as was

expected in our family.

It was not extraordinary.

The next morning, Daddy handed me enough money for two lunches and said, “Here’s enough money for you and that little girl.

And you buy her an ice cream at recess, too. Ya hear me?”

This arrangement went on for a few months until one day, all of a sudden, the little girl did not answer the roll call. After a few days, Mrs. Rudeseal explained that she and her family had moved on.

Now I know what I didn’t know then: They were kicked out of their little shack for not paying its meager rent.

As I grew up, I watched my parents live faithfully

by the rule of putting others before themselves.

It bred in me and my siblings a way of thinking that became natural and a way of life. Too many kids are being raised to be self-centered and self-entitled. This will bring the world down quicker than anything else we face in these dire times. Trophies given to every kid on a team breeds a false sense of self-importance and accomplishment.

On the Rondarosa, we have a young man named Dexter who helps us. He is remarkable in that, without being told, he remembers to visit the elderly or to invest in mentoring kids. One day, he arrived to work and said, “I wanted to come earlier but I needed to go to the nursing home and visit my great-uncle.”

I went over and hugged him. “I am so proud of you. There aren’t many young people who think like you do.”

“Your family is amazing,” Tink says often when he hears that Louise is cooking for two funerals in one day or Nicole is spending time with a retired professor in the nursing home who has no family, or that Rodney just laid down his work to go help someone.

My sister is at the funeral home so much that she has her own VIP parking space. “It’s respectful,” she says. On that, I fall way short.

A preacher named Les recently said to me, “Your mama and daddy were good, kind, faithful people. They taught you girls that, and that’s why you’ve turned out as you have.”

He’s right. We were raised that way. It didn’t just happen.

“We’re going to start holding people accountable.”

How often have you heard this at work? Accountability is a funny thing. We all want a workplace where people are accountable. The only thing more frustrating than someone who consistently fails to deliver is when the boss consistently fails to hold the person accountable.

I’ve noticed a trend; when people talk about accountability, they’re usually talking about the shortcoming of others.

Most organizations make the mistake of focusing on what they don’t want, instead of what they do want.

Here’s a common example: The boss is frustrated with people missing deadlines. She tells the team, “I’m going to hold you all accountable. From now on, anyone who turns their work in late will be written up.”

It’s likely more people will start turning their work in on time. But now, it’s a punitive culture, where people are trying to avoid reprimands. It’s better than a total slacker culture, but quality and enthusiasm will likely be mediocre at best.

A more effective leadership narrative is to articulate the positive behaviors you want to see.

We were recently helping a client improve their culture and create more accountability. Instead of repeatedly touting about accountability, we established five core behaviors.

Behaviors we wanted to see more of. They include: “We show up on time, prepared and ready, we give everyone a warm welcome, and we address problems in an honest and calm manner.”

They don’t just apply to one person; they apply to every single person, regardless of function or seniority level.

At first glance it might seem challenging to hold people accountable for qualitative behaviors like “warm welcome” or “calm manner.”

The secret is to show the team exactly what good looks like. Training your team to understand in your company warm welcome means eye contact, a smile and a cheerful greeting that lets everyone know this is what we expect here.

Being specific about

Accountability is a loaded word

Lisa McLeod qualitative nuances is how you create a positive culture. It provides the framework for accountability.

If people fall short, first address the problem as a training issue.

For example instead of, “Sarah is rude to customers.” You can report, “Sarah is having a hard time with the warm welcome.”

Then you show Sarah what warm welcomes looks like and practice it with her until she can do it.

Now, Sarah is held accountable for her behavior because she has been trained to do it.

The same principle applies in families. I often see parents struggling to enforce rules like, no TV until homework is done or no phone at the table.

They’re both good rules, but in and of themselves, they won’t create the kind of positive culture most people want in their families. They also place the responsibility on the leaders (the parents) for enforcement.

When our kids were younger, we established some positive core family behaviors. One was “we support each other’s dreams.” When someone shares an idea, you’re expected to respond positively, ask questions and help them figure out how to implement. If someone fails, you’re expected — regardless of your age — to help them rebound.

Rather than reprimanding people for bad attitudes, we’re specific about what positive behavior looks like. We train the team to do it, and every single person is expected to do it.

Accountability is critical if you want to create a high performing organization. If you want that organization to be positive, be specific about the behaviors and feelings you’re aiming for.

County offering bicentennial scavenger hunts at courthouse

By Curt Yeomans

curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

In a year when Gwinnett County’s history is being highlighted, county officials are inviting residents to search for some not-so-hidden treasure.

In this case, though, the treasure is knowledge about Gwinnett’s history.

The county has been offering Sovereign Scavenger Hunts at the Gwinnett County Historic Courthouse in Lawrenceville since January. It’s an ongoing activity tied to the county’s bicentennial, meaning residents have plenty of time this year — until Dec. 31 actually — to take up the hunt.

The idea behind the scavenger hunts is to give residents an opportunity to become familiar with the Historic Courthouse grounds.

commemorations. Chapter member Sarah Davis said the group got involved after the day was designated by President Donald Trump and their assistance was requested in a broad sense.

“VA Voluntary Services asked civic groups to provide refreshments at their facilities that Thursday (so the) William Day Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution served breakfast at the Gwinnett VA Clinic,” Davis said.

During the ceremony, Vietnam War veterans received lapel pins that were designed to highlight their service in the conflict.

102nd birthday

Dacula resident Harriet H. Coffee, celebrated her 102nd birthday with family members at her home March 18. Family members said she is a retired elementary school teacher who taught the second grade at Lawrenceville Elementary School for 15 years. Her family said that when Coffee was asked what the key was to living for more than a century, she told them it was “a strong faith in God and a good sense of humor.”

We are proud to provide honorable burials for homeless veterans who otherwise might not receive recognition for their service. If you served our country, we will serve you, no matter what.

People often talk about a “four-year degree” as if that were still the norm.

Unfortunately, it isn’t.

These days, on average, students take about five years to earn a bachelor’s degree.

The idea of the “fouryear degree” is based on the fact that most degrees require 120 to 125 semester hours. If students take 15 to 17 hours each semester for eight semesters, the thinking goes, they’ll graduate in four years.

The reality is that many factors come into play. Dropping or failing classes, taking courses you don’t need and changing your major can all lengthen your time to degree. And, given the rising cost of tuition, that extra time can lead to a lot of extra expense.

Fortunately, there are several strategies that can help you actually graduate on time: Have a plan. Students who start college already knowing what they want to study have a huge advantage. Degree requirements, including specific courses and even detailed, semester-by-semester planning tools are usually available online.

Beyond that, most colleges offer free academic advising. You can sit down with a counselor and map out your schedule for the entire four years.

bestbets SUNDAY 8 p.m. on CBS 53rd Academy of Country Music Awards Many of the genre’s stars gather again for one of the top events in their field, as Reba McEntire hosts the ceremony at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Chris Stapleton leads the nominees with eight bids, followed by Thomas Rhett with six, and Keith Urban and songwriter Shane McAnally with five each. Scheduled performers include Rhett, Urban, Jason Aldean, Kelsea Ballerini, Dierks Bentley, Kenny

Chesney, Luke Bryan, Florida Georgia Line, Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert, Maren Morris and Blake Shelton.

MONDAY 10 p.m. on CBS Scorpion The romance of Paige and Walter (Katharine McPhee, Elyes Gabel) was just getting started when this show’s previous year ended — and now, it takes what’s termed “a shocking turn” in the Season 4 finale, “A Life in the Sand.” The story is set in Northeast Africa, where the team faces a literal minefield to try to save the locals. Toby and Happy (Eddie Kaye Thomas, Jadyn Wong) reach a decision about something major. Robert Patrick and Ari Stidham also star.

TUESDAY

10 p.m. on ABC For the People The case of a man accused of stealing supplies destined for hurricane victims pits Allison (Jasmin Savoy Brown) against a formidable federal attorney (guest star Olivia Sandoval) in the new episode “Everybody’s

Joseph Morgan a Superhero.” Kate (Susannah Flood) counsels an ATF agent who’s seeking legal advice for someone. Sandra (Britt Robertson) represents an assault suspect who has a hard time grasping reality. Ben Rappaport, Wesam Keesh, RegeJean Page, Ben Shenkman, Hope Davis, Vondie Curtis-Hall and Anna Deavere Smith also star.

WEDNESDAY 9 p.m. on CW The Originals This spinoff of “The Vampire Diaries” begins its fifth and final season with “Where You

Left Your Heart,” finding Hope (Danielle Rose Russell) desperate to lure Klaus (Joseph Morgan) — absent for seven years at this point in the saga — back to New Orleans. The steps taken by Hope potentially have repercussions for many others. Elijah’s absence has had a definite impact on Klaus, evident when he runs into Caroline Forbes (guest star, and “Vampire Diaries” alum, Candice King). Riley Voelkel and Charles Michael Davis also return.

THURSDAY 10 p.m. on ABC Scandal It’s sure to be a sad night for Gladiators as this eversurprising drama series from creator-producer Shonda Rhimes reaches the end of its seven-season run with “Over a Cliff.” What the future holds for Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington) is likely to be indicated — and if the show holds true to form, it won’t necessarily be what anyone expects. Co-stars Tony Goldwyn, Bellamy Young, Darby Stanchfield, Jeff Perry, Katie Lowes, Joshua Malina,

Scott Foley, Joe Morton (who won an Emmy for the series) and Guillermo Diaz also wrap up their roles.

SATURDAY

8 p.m. on CW Dynasty Alexis (Nicollette Sheridan) targets Fallon’s (Elizabeth Gillies) very young marriage in the new episode “Use or Be Used,” particularly since Alexis has her doubts about the groom, Liam (guest star Adam Huber).

Health concerns fuel the latest debate between Blake and Cristal (Grant Show, Nathalie Kelley). James Mackay, Rafael de la Fuente, Sam Adegoke and Alan Dale also star.

8 p.m. on FOX MasterChef Eggs Benedict is a treat for many people, but the remaining young chefs don’t necessarily see it that way — since they have to make as much of it as they can in 15 minutes — in the new two-hour offering “Junior Edition: Crackin’ Under Pressure/Junior Edition: A Can Do Attitude.” Later, they have to use chocolate in dishes, with a big reward awaiting the win-

8 p.m. on CBS Ransom A supposed diamond seller turns out not to be that, but instead, a CIA operative — and she’s kidnapped in Vienna during a family trip in the new episode “Secrets and Spies.”

Eric and Oliver (Luke Roberts, Brandon Jay McLaren) try to locate her and recover her safely. The mission arises just as Oliver is giving thought to taking another job.

National debt is Approaching $20 Trillion

AUTHORIZED BY U.S. CONGRESS

The Gold Bullion Coin Act of 1985, Pub. L. No. 99-185, 99 Stat. 1177 (Dec. 17, 1985), has helped the Gold American Eagle to quickly become the official gold bullion coin of the United States Mint. Produced from gold mined in the United States, Gold American Eagles are imprinted with their gold content and legal tender face value. The act was passed

by United States Congress pursuant to its exclusive power to coin money and set its value, set forth in Article I, Section 8, Clause 5 of the United States Constitution. It was signed by Ronald Reagan on December 17, 1985.

WHY BUY GOLD?

Protect your paper money. $50,000 worth of gold bought back in 1950 would be worth around $1,576,000 at today’s gold prices. Our currency was much stronger back in 1950 and the national debt was only around $2.27 trillion compared to today’s GDP approaching a massive $20 trillion.

Gold supplies remain low and the demand continues to grow.

The printing of paper currency is not slowing down. When you convert paper currency into a gold currency, you haven’t spent your money but have transferred its value from a declining paper currency to a gold currency that is rising in both market and numismatic value. Owning Gold can protect your money in today’s unstable market. Experts are predicting gold could be above $5,000/oz in the future. If you transferred $50,000 of paper currency from the bank into Gold at today’s prices, you would have an opportunity to not only protect your $50,000 in Gold today, but also gain as much as 5 times its value in the future according to experts. That’s $250,000.

Gold may never be at these low prices again. Call immediately before our Vault sells out completely!
