COMMENT OF THE WEEK Whose Election?

Editor: I only hope that the citizens of this county wake up to the difference between words and actions and start demanding real, substantial changes in the out-of-control funding of local elections (“‘The Peoples’ Election,’” Sept. 18). I was outraged by the mealy-mouthed words from Bohn and others of the Gang of Four. Bohn, recipient of the most fat-cat money, speaks as though butter wouldn’t melt in his mouth when he says he wants “the big checks out.” He and his cohorts just want to play at a game that makes it look like they want to “level the playing field” but they’ve been playing to the wants of their donors since they stepped into office and the people be damned.

Not only should Lovelace’s suggestion of a $500 cap on donations be insisted upon but it must be accompanied by a spending ceiling of no more than $40,000 or $50,000. A donation cap by itself will not work because there are too many ways around that. A company gives and then the wife of the CEO gives and then an employee gives and so forth. The fact that Lovelace’s suggestion was ignored by the Four speaks volumes. Their actions speak louder than their false words.

Love A slither from my brain tries to tame the people that I meet

No real change will happen if people are not willing to act in strong and clear ways and demand change. Until that happens the Four have too much to lose by putting real caps on spending. Attend meetings, write letters, send emails to the Supes, demand what is right.

— Sylvia De Rooy, Indianola

but can’t seem to stretch it my careful thought blows in the breeze and catches a warm flower and there it is plain and simple — Matt Bryant

— Mary Ann, advising Eureka’s arbor artist (see Blog Jammin’, page 12).

Not Cool

Editor: Shame on Linda Stansberry and her column “Slugfest” (Sept. 18).

Banana slugs are native to California and our old growth redwood forests. They eat fallen leaves, mushrooms and dead animals. They replenish the soil and are an important part of the survival of the forests.

These are not a pest like the European brown snails that eat the plants in our yards and gardens. There is no need to torture and eat these beautiful yellow creatures as you have instructed in the article. Banana slugs are part of the endangered forests and should be left to do their job keeping redwood forests healthy.

This Stansberry recipe could be very detrimental to our beautiful native forest dweller when people read the article.

Linda writes about her conscience yet her ego wins out when it comes to writing an article to further her name in this local weekly journal.

I wish the Journal would think about the power of an article and the harm it could possibly do when it goes into print.

— Ann White, Eureka

More Merv

I was taught better

“Poor tree! Tape would have worked with less harm.”

Editor: Nice article about Merv George (“Merv’s World,” Sept.

11). I admire multitalented individuals, which he obviously is. In addition to inherited abilities, being multitalented usually requires “tears, toil and sweat” (to quote W. Churchill) along with dedication and old-fashioned hard work, which were factors in his appointment, I’m sure.

No Room at the Trough

Editor: Regarding Mr. Kinch and his letter (“Pensions Still Running High,” Sept. 10) and specifically the comment that “a government job is much more secure than in the private sector” — sorry, but I and 38 others would beg to differ.

In December of 2012, 20 fellow coworkers of mine were forced into early retirement while another 19 of us (myself included) were laid off. Our employer was College of the Redwoods, and while this action was necessary thanks to a decrease in funding from the state, most of the blame is courtesy of the board of trustees who hired the previous president (who had no experience running a college) who promptly ran the school into the ground.

Those in upper management who knew what he was doing and kept their mouths shut are just as guilty for having done nothing.

So, Mr. Kinch, before you go spouting off about government jobs being all so secure, ask those of us that once had one what we think about a government job now. Thanks to the idiots I mention here, 18 months later I’m still looking for work.

— T Kirschbaum, Fields Landing

About Those Numbers…

Editor: As Humboldt County’s AuditorController, I was surprised to read Mr. Brennan’s letter in the Sept. 18 edition of the North Coast Journal (“Hey Big Spender”) that alleges that my office was over budget by $1,780,425 in 2014. I don’t know where he is getting that figure. My office was over budget by $1,639.99 at the close of the fiscal year, mainly due to having to hire extra-help employees to cover unfilled positions.

The total annual budget for this office was $1,195,711 for 2013-14 — we spent $1,197,350.99. He also alleges that my office was over budget by $4.73 million from 2011 to 2014. Nonsense — we were substantially under budget each of those years.

We have seen recent cases of outside advocacy groups altering our county’s financial information and posting it to the Internet, presumably to serve some political agenda. This may be where Mr. Brennan found his wildly erroneous figures. Our financial records are open for inspection by anyone at any time. We are happy to provide real data for anyone who wants to know how their government is operating.

Joseph Mellett, Humboldt County Editor’s note: The Journal confirmed that the numbers cited in Rick Brennan’s letter to the editor last week were indeed wrong. ●

INVESTIGATORS SURVEY THE SCENE ON ALLARD AVENUE. PHOTO BY THADEUS GREENSON.

Officer Involved Inside EPD’s protocol

hots fired. One down.” Those were the four words yelled into a Eureka police radio shortly after midnight on Sept. 18 after a 22-year-old man was shot and lay dying on the front lawn of his cousin’s home. Those words also initiated a complex protocol for what essentially will be three parallel investigations: the first to determine whether the officers involved acted criminally; the second looking at the potential liability exposure for the city; and the third to determine whether the involved officers followed department policies and whether those policies need to be changed.

Details of the Eureka incident remained scant as of the Journal’s deadline Tuesday, but the shooting occurred as officers were looking for two people wanted on felony warrants in the 1600 block of Allard Avenue. An officer in the area reported seeing two subjects in an argument, one of whom he believed had a gun. He called for backup. Ultimately four officers confronted Thomas “Tommy” McClain — a recent transplant from the Fresno area who worked for a local roofing company — and radioed into dispatch, “We’ve got one at gunpoint.” About a minute later, shots were fired, reportedly after McClain reached for a gun.

Amid a public clamoring for answers, Mills said he wants a “thorough, complete, forensic examination of this incident” and won’t release details until he is confident they are accurate. Mills will rely on the work of a multi-agency team tasked with investigating the homicide. In the wake of the shooting, Mills sat down with the Journal to discuss how his department handled the incident from the moment shots rang out early that Thursday morning.

EPD is in the process of updating its entire policies and procedures manual, and has yet to finalize revisions to its section on handling of officer-involved fatalities.

The existing policy — enacted by former Chief Garr Nielsen amid controversy over the 2007 in-custody death of Martin Frederick Cotton II — calls for the California Department of Justice to step in and lead an investigation. But, the DOJ disbanded most of its investigative functions several years ago and shuttered its Redding office.

The agency simply no longer has the capacity to investigate Eureka’s officer-involved shootings, so the department had to go off-script Sept. 18 and initiate the county’s Critical Incident Response Team (CIRT).

Immediately after the shooting, Mills said, officers called an ambulance for McClain, secured the scene and waited for reinforcements. Mills said he got to Allard Avenue about 20 minutes after the shooting and spoke briefly with the officers involved — simply asking them if they were OK and if they needed anything. He said the officers gave a brief statement to senior detective Ron Harpham — who is leading EPD’s homicide investigation — at the scene. Known as a “public safety interview,” Mills said the statement wasn’t meant to recount details of the incident, but simply to convey what police needed to know to finish safely, properly secure the area and process it for evidence.

Then, the four officers were instructed not to discuss the incident with anyone — under threat of firing — and transported back to EPD headquarters, where they were set up with off-duty officers to keep them company and to keep an eye on them. Mills said the officers’ hands were swabbed for gunpowder residue and their guns were seized, with evidence technicians logging how many bullets remained continued on page 9

Geoff at his sister Izzy’s recent baby shower in Arcata’s Redwood Park.

Geoff and his girlfriend, Heather Ward, both work at the Sunnybrae Murphy’s.

A sampling of the many entrees available at the Murphy’s Deli.

Meet Our Staff !

Geoffrey Gambrell has worked as a deli clerk at the Sunnybrae Murphy’s for just over two years now. He says the best thing about his job is getting to know the regulars. He likes knowing just what kind of sandwich customers will want when they walk through the door. Geoff has made a lot of sandwiches, from the simple to the complex. The most unexpected order so far? “A tofu sandwich with bacon on it,” he says with a smile. “I thought that was pretty funny.”

Geoff says his bosses are “honestly cool” and very flexible to work with, and his customers are really friendly. An added perk of his job is working with his girlfriend, Heather Ward, who is a clerk. Geoff has lots of friends and family who live here in Humboldt County, and his house is right in Sunnybrae, which makes for a convenient commute.

The Murphy’s Market deli is comprehensive, offering breakfast, lunch and dinner along with party platters and full-service event catering.

Like everyone in the deli department, Geoff does his share of cooking and prepping food, making sandwiches and salads and serving

customers. The majority of the dishes available in the deli are homemade on-site, which has given Geoff the opportunity to learn how to cook, a skill which will serve him throughout his life.

When asked what his favorite dish at the deli is, Geoff considers the question carefully then decides on the chicken enchiladas. Definitely the chicken enchiladas.

Geoff, 20, was born in Salinas, along the central coast of California. When he was a baby his family moved to Humboldt County where he lived in both Arcata and Eureka, along with his seven sisters and three brothers.

In 2012, Geoff graduated from Arcata High School.

As for the future, Geoff explains, “Honestly, what I really want to do is get into criminal justice and eventually become a police officer.”

He says some people don’t like the police, but he figures those naysayers are the ones who are up to no good. Geoff thinks it will be a solid career, with great benefits. Most importantly, he believes it will provide him with “a chance to help and give back to the community.”

What Geoff loves most about living in Humboldt County is being near the coast. In his downtime he plays guitar, drums and video games and hangs out with Heather. He doesn’t hesitate when asked about his favorite film: It’s Napoleon Dynamite. He listens to all kinds of music, but The Beatles are without a doubt his favorite band.

An avid reader, Geoff has plowed through every book written by co-authors Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child, who collaborate on crime novels and murder mystery technothrillers.

Skydiving tops his bucket list, while snowboarding and international travel are right up there, too. “I want to go out of the country.

I’ve never been out of the country, so that’s definitely on my bucket list.”

Geoff is a funny and likable guy, according to people who know him. He’s proud to be part of the Murphy’s Market team, which is committed to providing the best customer service in the county.

continued from page 6 in each. Detailed photographs were taken of each officer in uniform, and clothing with potential physical evidence was seized. The officers were allowed to confer with an attorney, who advised them of the process and their rights, and to call their families to tell them they’d been involved in an incident but were safe.

But, Mills said, official statements were not taken that morning. “We don’t interview them in detail until we get enough evidence to talk to them intelligently so that if something is amiss, we know,” Mills explained, adding that studies have also shown officers’ recollections to be more accurate 24 hours after a critical incident, when adrenaline has subsided and they’ve had a chance to rest.

Meanwhile, as the involved officers went through their process, Mills said Harpham surveyed the scene of the shooting, instructing officers to tape off Allard Street and ordering them not to let anyone into the cordoned-off area. From there, he returned to headquarters to activate CIRT, comprised of officers from EPD, the Arcata Police Department, the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office and the Humboldt County District Attorney’s Office. Under the team’s protocol, the agency involved in the incident has the authority to dictate how the investigation is handled, what personnel are involved and what agency will take the lead in the investigation. Opinions vary as to best practices, with some agencies preferring to tap another to lead the investigation into the conduct of its personnel to avoid any appearance of impropriety.

Mills said he wanted EPD to remain in the “coordinator” role of the investigation — not wanting to task another agency with the labor-intensive undertaking — but assigned the DA’s office a co-lead designation. Mills said that because the DA’s Office will ultimately make the determination of whether officers broke the law, he wanted its personnel involved from an early stage.

Harpham called in DA Investigator Marvin Kirkpatrick, as well as detectives from APD and the sheriff’s office and a pair of DOJ criminologists. They all responded to EDP headquarters, where they were briefed before heading to the scene of the shooting. Mills said the team was given minimal information — just that there’d been a shooting involving four officers, that there was a dead subject at the hospital and a potential crime scene in the front yard of the Allard Avenue residence — so investigators would see the scene with fresh eyes. Before the team left, Mills said he admonished them: “In no uncertain terms, I want a complete, thorough and objective investigation.

I know you love the people you work with, but we need objectivity here.” In response, he said he got some “cockeyed looks,” as if

the investigators bristled at the implication.

Mills said the criminologists were tasked with processing the crime scene — with a special eye on the location of officer boot prints and shell casings — while detectives were sent to interview witnesses and write search warrants.

Meanwhile, audio was pulled from the EPD dispatch system of all calls to and from the scene of the shooting and video was pulled from the responding patrol cars’ dash-cam systems.

When the officers involved did ultimately give formal statements, he said it was classified as an investigative interview, so they weren’t read their Miranda rights.

“If at some point we got reasonable suspicion they are culpable of a crime, we would Mirandize them,” he said.

Two of the involved officers remained on administrative leave as of the Journal’s deadline, but Mills said they are doing in-house work for the department. He said they won’t return to the field until passing a “fit-for-duty” assessment from a psychologist. “We want to ensure they are capable of doing their jobs,” he explained.

“This is a hugely traumatic experience and we need to make sure everyone is psychologically ready to step back out there.”

The city’s insurance carrier, the Redwood Empire Municipal Insurance Fund, is conducting its own review, and Mills said the information unearthed in the criminal investigation will also be used to conduct an internal review to determine if the officers involved followed EPD policy. Finally, Mills said he will also bring in outside use-of-force and critical incident experts to review the incident “through a different prism” to see if departmental policies need changing.

A community eager for answers will have to be patient. The criminal investigation will ultimately be turned over to the DA’s Office for review, but that could take months as it will include forensic testing from DOJ laboratories that have a backlog of cases. After reviewing the case and determining whether or not to pursue criminal charges against the involved officers, the DA’s Office will issue a public report.

Because the processes surrounding officer-involved fatalities is largely shrouded in secrecy, the public can grow uneasy.

Some communities have impaneled citizen review committees to take an independent look at such incidents. In an article in Police Chief Magazine, Drew J. Tracy, a former cop who is now president of the Critical Incident Review Group, suggests a policy requiring a local district attorney to present every officer-involved fatality case to a criminal grand jury for review as a way to engender confidence in the entire process. “Sending every law enforcement shooting to the grand jury provides citizen scrutiny and reminds citizens that law enforcement does not believe its incidents are above citizen review,” Tracy wrote. ●

the Year. This year, the campus is reading War Dances, a collection of short stories

by Sherman Alexie, an author whose book The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian was pulled from school curricula in Idaho this year.

I wonder how many school kids who never would have thought of reading the book and would have slept through their class sessions on it now go out of their way to read it.

When this column comes out, you will have already missed our Read Out. But that doesn’t matter. You can stage your own. This is how you do it: You find a book that someone has said you shouldn’t read, find a nice comfortable place to sit, and read it out loud.

Do it because you can. Because you live in a country in which all kinds of books are easy to get, and in which no one will arrest you for reading them. If you want a whole list of possibilities, go to the American Library Association at www.ala.org.

Better yet, go to your piggy bank and buy one from one of our local, independent booksellers. That way you can read a dangerous book and pass it on to your friends and blow their minds away as well.

Wait. That’s not how to get you to read a book. I should know better.

Don’t even think about picking up a book. Its bad for you.

THE 2014

I’m pretty sure Dr. Seuss turned me into an environmentalist and Harriet the Spy turned me into a journalist.

Books are dangerous. After I read P.J. Proudhon’s 1840 book What is Property? as a free e-book, I questioned capitalism. I unleashed myself from religion as a direct result of reading Sam Harris’ book The End of Religion.

But those of you at the opposite end of the philosophical and political spectrum note that the danger in books doesn’t just come from the left. Consider the oeuvre of conservative pundit Bill O’Reilly. He’s the author of 17 books, almost all of them bestsellers. He’s even got books for kids. The O’Reilly Factor For Kids: A Survival Guide for America’s Families was a best-selling nonfiction book in 2005. I’d bet that, these days at least, conservative books outsell those with a liberal slant. And while that kind of frightens me, I wouldn’t ever try to change it by limiting access. To fear books would mean I don’t trust people’s ability to think for themselves. And while I am afraid that too many people can’t think for themselves, I refuse to live under that kind of a paradigm.

Our Read Out should be fun. We last held one a few years ago and people found reading out loud to a crowd so enjoyable, it was hard for us to keep them to 10 minutes. And so many people wanted to participate, I think the library had to kick us out. People joined in who hadn’t even known the event was going to happen. They passed us in the lobby, came near out of curiosity and found themselves so engaged that they went to our table of challenged books, found one they liked and signed up to read.

Each year at HSU, we read a Book of

ON NEWSSTANDS:

I

am trying to pick a book to read.

This is Banned Books Week and I’m helping Humboldt State University raise awareness by helping to organize a read out. HSU Librarian Kumi Wattanabe-Schock and I will corral dozens of people to read out loud in five-minute segments from books that someone, somewhere has tried to keep off library shelves or out of classrooms. It’s a long list of possible titles.

I joke that, as a writer, I want someone to try to ban something I write. That’s because it will guarantee me an audience I otherwise wouldn’t have. Who doesn’t want to read something when someone tells you that you can’t or that you shouldn’t?

But book banning isn’t a joke at a time when so much information is kept from us and when people are jailed in the United States for trying to release it.

I am the product of 16 years of schooling. I have a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree. Most of what I learned in college and most of what I’ve learned since has been from books, fiction and nonfiction. The news industry, of which I’ve been a part, gives me pieces of information to think about. But books help me understand the world I live in and put all those pieces of information together in a way that makes sense.

Books have completely altered the way I think. Isabel Allende’s House of Spirits and Salman Rushdie’s books Shame and Fury helped me understand the origins of perrenial rage and violence in the world.

Toni Morrison’s novel Beloved and Taylor Branch’s nonfiction biography of Martin Luther King forced me to confront my nation’s long history of racial repression and, in that way, to understand the present.

Two Dead in Crashes

Officials have released the names of two young Humboldt County residents who lost their lives on Sept. 22 in two separate vehicle collisions.

Rio Dell resident Rynn Smith, 24, died when the 1991 Toyota pickup he was riding in crashed on Van Duzen Road. According to the Weaverville office of the California Highway Patrol, Smith and the driver of the vehicle, a 22-year-old male from Mad River who survived but whose name has not been released, were heading southbound on Van Duzen Road around 12:15 a.m. at a high rate of speed when the driver lost control “for unknown reasons.” It rolled multiple times down a steep embankment, says the CHP, and came to rest on its wheels about 100 feet below the road. Smith was ejected from the truck, and the driver, who was not ejected, was taken to Redwood Memorial Hospital with major injuries. The CHP, which says alcohol may have been a factor in the crash, continues to investigate.

Later in the afternoon, 18-yearold Millie Elaine Blake, of Hoopa, died after the Toyota 4Runner she was driving, with three passengers, crashed on U.S. Highway 101 near the Sunset exit in Arcata.

According to the Arcata office of the CHP, the truck was “traveling erratic southbound” around 2:15 p.m. and, “for reasons still under investigation,” lost control, went through a construction zone (missing a road crew working there at the time) and across the median and overturned across

the northbound lanes. It came to rest on its roof. Blake, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was ejected and died at the scene.

Two passengers were taken to Mad River Community Hospital with moderate to major injuries.

Gettin’ All the Trash Out

September is when our good citizens’ tidy-cat impulses really kick in and hundreds voluntarily patrol the shores of our rivers, bay, sloughs, marshes and ocean to clean up after those sloppy, ill-behaved “others.”

Earlier this month, folks swarmed the Eel River in at least two cleanups — one organized by the Lost Coast 4x4s club down near Fernbridge (its 15th annual), the other by the Rio Dell and Scotia Chamber of Commerce. They scraped up and hauled away thousands of pounds of garbage. And on Sept. 20, as part of International Cleanup Day (and California’s 30th annual Coastal Cleanup Day), around 1,000 volunteers at 70 Humboldt County locations likewise picked up after others.

Journal freelancer Jennifer Savage, who works for local cleanup coordinator Northcoast Environmental Center, says the cleanup day is the world’s largest single-day volunteer effort. In California alone, according to preliminary numbers from the California Coastal Commission, more than 54,000 volunteers at more than 850 sites picked up more than 576,000 pounds of trash.

Highlights of our local cleanup: • Longtime volunteer John Shelter and his crew collected more than 13 shopping carts full of trash from Palco Marsh — about 3,500 pounds of garbage.

• Pam Halstead’s Fortuna Union High School environmental studies students collected 3,000 cigarette butts

Not so much. A thejust a safe areasheriff’s office spreadsheet provided to Margins are the Journal shows that few busts yield convictions. Many don’t even yield a suspect.

attorney earlier this year to a private legal firm. The office gets some help from a lawyer based out of Sacramento, but “it’s not like having someone in the office,” Gallegos said. Ultimately, it will be DA-elect Maggie Fleming’s decision whether to continue to fund an environmental crimes unit.

Environmental damage from marijuana grows has become part of the law enforcement line recently, though Gallegos said he’s sought to charge people for environmental damage in connection with grows for years. Prosecuting environmental crimes hasn’t yielded some huge turnaround in the industry, and Gallegos wouldn’t quantify how effective any one kind of charge has been in pot cases.

“Charges follow the evidence we get,” he said. “It’s not like something is better than another. We can only charge an offense where we have evidence that it has been committed.”

Natalynne Delapp, of the Environmental Protection Information Center, said local environmental groups, to her knowledge, haven’t been tracking the effectiveness of prosecuting environmental crimes associated with grows, but said it’s another tool where “traditional criminal charges around marijuana haven’t been sticking.”

Information needs to be shared properly between the enforcement groups — Fish and Wildlife, the Water Quality Control Board, the sheriff’s office — and the prosecutors who are expected to follow through with the law and hold people accountable, she said.

Gallegos said his office has had some success paying for the cleanup of grow sites from forfeitures and civil penalties following busts, adding that he wants to encourage good practices when it comes to growing marijuana. “It’s not the drug, it’s the individual engaged in the act,” he said. “I think it’s right to ask [growers] and expect them to do more. … I wish it were legalized — that criminal activity would not be so incentivized.”

Currently, with 16 convictions to show for 114 busts, it’s clear there’s little deterrent. l

All that talk is premature, Parris says, Parris stops short of identifying a solution, adamantly adding that he hasn’t accepted any other than to say his office needs more rejob offers.

The office’s deputy coroners traverse the county’s 4,000 square miles — through cities, up dirt roads and into the woods — to take possession of the deceased. From there, they notify family members, investigate causes of death, schedule autopsies and maintain a litany of records.

When four people were killed recently in a single car crash on State Route 36, the coroner’s office was there to help families through the tragedy. When a 22-year-old was shot and killed last week by Eureka police, the coroner’s office responded to the scene and, later, notified the man’s family. Technically law enforcement officers, coroners and deputy coroners act as investigators. They track down family and friends, and search for facts surrounding a death. But they are also counselors, helping families and friends confront death and often the uncomfortable circumstances surrounding it.

Last year, the office investigated the deaths of 262 people and ordered 92 autopsies — post-mortem examinations by a forensic pathologist aimed at determining the manner and cause of a person’s death. Some of those

cases were relatively straightforward.

Others led Parris and his deputy coroners down long, arduous paths, as they put together evidence and clues to determine exactly what killed the deceased or to track down his or her next of kin.

Since 2005 — when the county board of supervisors approved a departmental consolidation — the coroner’s office has also acted as the county’s public administrator, meaning it assists attorneys and citizens with estate management.

Sometimes, the office administers estates for the deceased, usually when there is no known next of kin, or when a known relative refuses the responsibility. (It’s worth noting that the county administrator function is a revenue generator, bringing in more than $333,000 last year, reducing the county’s general fund contribution to the coroner’s office to $373,000.)

On the phone last week, Parris says it’s all tremendously rewarding work — work that can showcase the best in everyday people in times of great personal loss and crisis. But it’s also arduous, detailed and emotionally intense work that demands the staff be at its best as there simply isn’t room for mistakes.

That’s precisely what makes the current situation so grueling, Parris says. The office has three deputy coroners who — along with Parris — fall into an on-call rotation, each taking one week a month when they are responsible for responding to every call that comes in, 24 hours a day. The following week, the next man is up. Parris says the week after being on call, employees process the cases taken in the week before — scheduling autopsies, tracking

down relatives, ordering tests. The following two weeks they spend doing case work, tending to open files, writing investigation reports and filling out mountains of paperwork. Then, they’re back on call.

“For me, it’s overwhelming,” Parris says.

“It shortens your life span.”

The schedule also racks up notable expenses, as every time a deputy coroner gets a call at 2 a.m., the overtime clock starts running. Last year, the office’s three deputy coroners — Charles Van Buskirk, Trevor Enright and Roy Horton — combined to earn more than $45,000 in overtime pay. Under Parris’ direction, the office started a volunteer program in 2009 in which trained citizens come in

Mostly, Parris says, he worries about his staff. “We have to take care of them,” he says. “That’s the future of this department — taking care of the people we have — because they are extremely specialized in what they do.

You just can’t go out and fill those positions overnight.”

Eureka Mayor Frank Jager, who spent 10 years as the county’s elected coroner, opposed consolidation when he left the post in 2009. Now, he says he supports the idea as a way to support coroner staff, the “unsung heroes of the county.”

continued from page 18 for that call-out situation. People don’t realize how much they get called out, and how much that interrupts their lives.”

When the county mulled consolidation before, then-undersheriff Downey was tasked with putting together a transition plan. Years later, Downey says he still sees a lot of merit in the idea, saying it could net a cost-savings for the county as a whole. The sheriff’s office has a host of investigators, Downey says, that could help with death investigations, the primary function of the coroner’s office. And, he says, under a consolidated office he would have deputies cross trained so they could deal with preliminary death investigations. “Less complicated investigations could be handled by the field deputy when he responds and would preclude a deputy coroner call-out,” Downey says, adding that would reduce the burden on the deputy coroners and costs associated with after-hours calls.

The plan would require some additional training of deputies, but much of it could be done “in-house” without additional expense to the county, Downey says.

But sheriff’s deputies are already stretched with duties and patrolling the county’s outlying areas. Responding to deaths can be a time-consuming affair, and deaths in Humboldt County’s incorporated areas would pull deputies from their normal coverage areas.

Jager says there’s also a lot of value in the coroner’s office being seen as an independent agency and not as an arm of local law enforcement. “One of the things we ran into when dealing with deaths that occur in sensitive areas, like parts of Southern Humboldt, is that we were able to get a lot more information and talk to a lot more people [than police would have been able to],” he says. “A coroner’s van going into, say, a remote area where there may be illegal grows or whatever doesn’t raise much concern. A deputy’s car is seen differently.”

There’s also the case of officer-involved

fatalities, Jager says, when the coroner’s office has traditionally been seen as an independent check and balance in the system. For example, after Eureka police shot and killed Cheri Lyn Moore in 2006, Jager called for a coroner’s inquest, a factfinding hearing in which involved officers testified under oath about the incident.

It was and remains the only definitive, public airing of facts in the case, which ultimately saw EPD’s incident commanders indicted for manslaughter. (The charges were later dismissed by a judge who said he couldn’t find any evidence of criminal conduct.)

For his part, Jager says he doesn’t think consolidation would neuter the coroner’s office’s ability to act as a check in the system, not as long as Van Buskirk and Horton are around, anyway. “They’re top notch,” he says. “They’re not going to be swayed by anybody.”

Realizing there would be at least a perception issue in the case of deputyinvolved fatalities, Downey says his plan would be to call in neutral coroners. “If it’s a sensitive issue, a shooting or a death by a vehicle accident involving the sheriff’s office, then we would have a neighboring county’s coroner’s office come in and handle that investigation,” he says.

While Jager says he would support consolidation because he sees it as the only way to ease the burden that’s currently on the county’s deputy coroners, he says it’s not an easy decision. “It’s a tough call on the part of the county,” he says. “There’s tradeoffs and pluses and minuses, but when you look at all the counties in the state that have (consolidated), there’s a reason they’ve done it.”

Shortly after

Humboldt opted to let its coroner’s office stand alone and appointed Parris — one of 14 applicants — to the post in 2009, Marin County faced a similar decision and went a different route. There, voters approved a consolidation of the two offices, despite

a bitter opposition campaign mounted by Ken Holmes, then the sitting coroner.

Five years later, the merger is saving the county $41,000 a month, according to a recent article in the Marin Independent Journal, and generally getting rave reviews.

In Humboldt County, however, the move wouldn’t generate anywhere near those savings. In Marin, the merger of the two offices saw a purging of just about all the coroner’s office personnel, who were replaced with lower-paid investigators. If consolidation moves forward in Humboldt, Downey says he will retain all the deputy coroners.

Back in 2009, the county estimated the consolidation would save between $36,000 and $64,865 annually. Downey says he anticipates the budget savings would be meager initially, but would have the potential to grow as functions become more streamlined and efficient. It also seems likely that Downey would see an increase to his $174,000 annual salary if the consolidation moves forward, as sheriff-coroners in counties of similar size to Humboldt make an average of about $26,000 a year more than their sheriff counterparts.

In addition to potential budget savings, Parris says a consolidation may open the door to funding opportunities for the coroner’s office function. Currently, he says, there are grants available to pay for coroner’s services. The problem, he says, is the coroner’s office currently doesn’t classify as a “first-responder agency,” making it ineligible for most of them. If the office were brought under the wing of the sheriff’s office, it would be listed as the applicant agency for such grants, Parris says, which could bring more resources to the county for coroner’s services.

But budget savings are secondary in Parris’ mind. He says his overriding concern moving forward is simply finding a way for his deputy coroners to work with less strain and anxiety. The office’s current configuration puts its employees under tremendous strain, he says. “I care about the people I work with. I need to have conditions for them that are going to be healthy.”

Parris says the county is “working diligently” to make things better. It appears the plan may well be addition by subtraction, but those sitting outside county government will have to wait until the new year to see. ●

A Comic Dilemma at NCRT

Coming Up in October:

d b Pu

The 2010 musical comedy The Addams Family is scheduled to open at Ferndale Repertory Theatre on Oct. 3. With music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa and book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, it is based on the ghoulish characters created by cartoonist Charles Addams. 786-5483, www.ferndalerep.org.

Humboldt State University presents a radio-style reading of Her Own Way by Broadway playwright Clyde Fitch, the first play performed at HSU 100 years ago, on Friday evening, Oct. 3, and Saturday afternoon, Oct. 4, in the Van Duzer Theatre. Then, on Oct. 16, HSU opens Coraline, the musical version of Neil Gaiman’s horror/fantasy novella. 826-3928, HSUStage.blogspot.com.

On Oct. 30, Redwood Curtain opens Other Desert Cities by Jon Robin Baitz, directed by Peggy Metzger. 443-7688, www. redwoodcurtain.com.

Offstage: On Oct. 10 at 7 p.m. at Northtown Books, the principal creators of the 2006 community-based production Salmon is Everything — including Suzanne Burcell and Kathy McCovey (both Karuk), Theresa May and Jean O’Hara — discuss their new book about the process.

Finally, my apology for neglecting to mention Dmitry Tokarsky among the other excellent performers in my review of Equivocation at Redwood Curtain. Others who attend the show may agree that we’ll never see Lady Macbeth in quite the same way again. ●

conflicted prince of Denmark.

Should he or shouldn’t he? To be or not to be? TV or not TV? Does he hate Hamlet, or himself?

I Hate Hamlet is a comedy by Paul Rudnick, rich in jokes but with a bit more substance than it pretends to have. It is also awkwardly constructed, especially at the start. With all the set up, exposition and unfamiliar New York and German accents, the first act at NCRT wobbled gamely forward until Anders Carlson as the irrepressible Hollywood director infused the stage with comic energy. The character certainly provides it, with lines like: “Am I, like, the most self-obsessed person you’ve ever met? My answer? Yes.” The first act climaxes with a sword fight between the reluctant Rally and the buoyant Barrymore (choreographed by Jasper Anderton) that sparkles like the champagne Barrymore is simultaneously imbibing. Christian Litten is a lithe and athletic Barrymore, and even looks like the actor, especially in Laura Rhinehart’s costume — a reproduction of Barrymore’s Hamlet togs as seen in old photos.

Most of what the play says about Barrymore is historically accurate and relevant to Rally’s dilemma. Barrymore was the theatrical equivalent of a sitcom actor until he triumphed as Hamlet on Broadway and, perhaps more impressively, in London.

Then he left for Hollywood.

In portraying a stage legend, this show’s

everal blocks from where a royal henchman cleverly castigates Shakespeare to his face in Redwood Curtain’s Equivocation (“Unequivocal Success,” Sept. 11), some contemporary Americans (and a distinguished ghost) are conflicted about the Bard in the 1991 comedy I Hate Hamlet, now onstage at the North Coast Repertory Theatre in Eureka.

After the TV series that made him famous is cancelled, Andrew Rally (played

by Evan Needham) rediscovers himself as an actor in New York. His agent (Gloria Montgomery) encourages him to audition for the title role in a Shakespeare in Central Park production of Hamlet, and he is cast.

His romantic and virginal new girlfriend (Jennifer Trustem) swoons for the Shakespearian hero she wants him to be.

But he immediately has second thoughts, especially after his Hollywood director (Anders Carlson) brings him a deal for a network series about a crusading inner city teacher with superpowers. He can fly, “but only about 10 feet up. See, we’re keeping it real.”

All the action transpires in a vintage Manhattan apartment that Rally’s real estate agent (Kristen Collins) has found for him. It just happens to be the former abode of actor John Barrymore, whose 1920s Hamlet became legendary. A seance summons Barrymore from the beyond to advise Rally on his own portrayal of the

1991 Broadway production itself became legendary. The brilliant English actor (and former Hamlet) Nichol Williamson was increasingly erratic in his performance as Barrymore. In the sword fight one evening, he swatted costar Evan Handler in the back. Handler immediately exited the stage and kept on going, out of the theatre and out of the play forever.

Director David Moore and cast seem to have elected to do a fairly subdued version of this sometimes raucously produced play. That choice allows for more human feeling in the Barrymore-Rally scenes in the second act, in which Needham and Litten excel. Gloria Montgomery also delivers a moving set piece in Act II. On opening night, some comic timing and delivery wasn’t yet sharp, a not uncommon occurrence. There seems to be more potential in the script for vocalizing (and projecting) some lusciously comic lines. Fortunately there are three more weekends in the run to discover such opportunities and possibly make a funny show funnier.

Calder Johnson is scenic designer, Telfer Reynolds designed lighting, Michael Thomas the sound, Laura Rhinehart is in charge of properties as well as costumes. I Hate Hamlet is performed weekends at NCRT through Oct. 11. 442-6278, www.ncrt.net.

T

he farmers market is a source of roiling internal debate. On one hand, there’s the glory of fresh, delicious chard and peaches; on the other, I dread the Battle of the Strollers and small talk with tan people in Tevas. This time of year the cons are definitely outweighed by one giant pro: fresh, unshelled cannellini beans.

As I write on this sunny morning, a tanker of lovely white beans is bubbling away on the stove. My garden parsley and garlic are chopped, my local olive oil is waiting. Ah, la vie bourgeoise.

Seriously, cannellini beans are one of late summer’s great treats.

They’re very nice dried, but freshly cooked out of the pod they are so creamy and fine-fleshed they embody all the beauty of rich soil and Shively sun.

New Moon Organics sells them for $4 a pound, and a pound of shelled beans is enough to make a good side dish for four or a hearty meal for two.

Lest you be tempted, the pods are

not for eating. Yellow and browning pods mean the plump, white beans inside will be easy to shell and perfectly ripe — eat them too green and they cause stomach upset. All these recipes can be made with dried and boiled beans as well, but we are lucky to be able to get them fresh, at least for another month, so go to the farmers market and try some.

Shelling the beans is fun as a communal activity, or with a colander in the sun as a mindless solo meditation. Even handling the beans is a pleasurable aesthetic experience, with their firm, smooth skin and marshmallow color. Fresh cannellini beans are easy to cook, too. Just cover them with a few inches of boiling salted water and cook until they’re quite soft, 20 to 25 minutes.

I prefer them very simply dressed, with lemon, garlic, salt and pepper, parsley and good olive oil, but there are many ways to gussy them up. Mashing them with olive oil, anchovies and red pepper flakes makes a vibrant crostini spread.

Seriously, cannellini beans are one of late summer’s great treats.

Tossing them in chickpea flour, cumin and salt and frying them in butter makes a lovely snack with white wine.

You can easily make the beans a full meal by simmering them with leeks, chicken stock, green beans and a splash of white wine until the vegetables are soft and the liquid is almost gone, then covering and poaching an egg on top. Totally delicious. And in case you still have some summer tomatoes, here’s a side that’s great with fish:

If this century is getting you down, throw on some Dark Ages drag and get thee to the Excalibur Medieval Tournament and Market Faire at Mad River Community Hospital at 10 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 27 and Sept. 28 and the following weekend, Oct. 4 and Oct. 5 ($8, $5 kids, free to kids under 5).

There are daily horse parades, some 40 vendors, costumed entertainers, 13th-century craft and skill demonstrations, medieval musicians and dudes in armor working out their feelings the old-fashioned way: with giant swords and lances. Get in on the less bruising action and test your aim in the archery competition, battle with foam swords or just stomp some grapes. Grab an ale at the Dark Horse Tavern, maybe eat some sort of meat on a stick and take a break from modern times without worrying that your favorite character is going to get killed off. Just don’t forget to take a selfie with the Vikings.

Movie Times

the film’s predecessors are knowing.

The ending spirals out of control quickly, with the big reveal delivered in a oneminute expository video recording (full of its own grisly images) that mostly serves to reveal plot holes. Then the filmmakers double-down with a second twist that still has my head spinning. It assures the audience that there will be sequels, shoehorning in a sales pitch for the planned trilogy, rather than simply leaving the door open.

After all that tension and mystery, the poor denouement makes The Maze Runner feel like a commodity, not a film. PG13. 113m.

Maze dead ends, Bateman grows up

By Grant Scott-Goforth and Jennifer Fumiko Cahill filmland@northcoastjournal.com

Reviews

THE MAZE RUNNER is a tightly paced sci-fi/horror flick for the tween set, a dark and violent mystery that doesn’t gloss over the child murder so popular in films these days. But while the twists and turns are thrilling, the film’s resolution isn’t unlike that feeling when your pencil tip escapes the newspaper labyrinth: brief and deeply unsatisfying.

Thomas (Dylan O’Brien) wakes up on a clanking elevator hurtling upward into a verdant square of land surrounded by huge stone walls. There, he’s introduced to the ragtag society of teenage boys, who, memories of their previous lives wiped clean, have built a tenuous government and culture of cooperation in the three years since they began arriving. Their goals: get out of the “glade” and find out who they are, who put them Sept. 25 Oct. 1

there and why.

Everyone in the glade has a role, whether it’s farming, building or running. Every morning, a mechanical gate opens at the edge of the meadow, and the selected toughest boys sprint into the labyrinth, trying to map, memorize and learn as much as they can before the gate closes again at dusk. No one who’s spent the night behind the walls has survived the mysterious “greavers” who stalk the tangle of desolate pathways. When Alby (Aml Ameen), the glade’s de facto leader, is stung by greavers, the mini-society begins to unravel. A girl (Kaya Scodelario) arrives, and the group splits into factions of those who want to remain in the glade and those who want to risk everything by going into the labyrinth.

The movie builds suspense by thrusting us into the world at the same time as Thomas, letting the other characters parse out knowledge of their situation as they would to any newcomer. High-concept sci-fi films like this one work because the storytellers pick rules for the world and stick with them.

There are a few “why-don’t-they-just” moments, but the brisk storytelling and flashy set pieces move the story along.

The Maze Runner sets an ominous tone early in the film, creating real tension. The labyrinth is genuinely spooky, the action is exciting, the set design is surprisingly evocative, intoning ’60s and ’70s sci-fi pulp art and Richard Serra-esque industrial ennui.

On its face, this is a Hunger Games retread minus the ass-kicking heroine, but it’s also darker — less focused on satire, and more interested in the thrill of the world.

It’s a mélange of Cube, Battle Royale, Lord of the Flies, and every survival horror and zombie movie in the last 10 years. Theaters are teeming with YA adaptations, and comparisons are unavoidable, but the nods to

THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU. This film hits so many quirky family drama clichés on the nose that it leaves you unprepared for its genuine moments, especially from leads Jason Bateman and Tina Fey. Embarrassing mother? Ne’er do well youngest brother?

Lost main character returning home? Pliant and pleasantly eccentric hometown girl? Check ’em all off. But the charm and humanity of a solid cast rescues the movie from its more hackneyed plot points and thin character sketches.

Judd Altman (Jason Bateman) is already in a funk from the end of his marriage when his father passes away. He returns home to mourn with his three siblings, all of whom are struggling with something.

The eye-rolling Wendy (Tina Fey) stews in a loveless marriage while her high school sweetheart is stranded in their hometown with a brain injury. Responsible, stiff Paul (Corey Stoll) and his wife (Kathryn Hahn) can’t get pregnant. And man-child baby brother Phillip (Adam Driver) is having an Oedipal crisis with his therapist (Connie Britton). Add their mother (Jane Fonda), a child development author who jumps boundaries like double dutch ropes, and it’s minutes before people are blurting out secrets, opening old wounds and wrestling on the lawn. On brief escapes from the family home, Judd, wreck that he is, is able to rekindle a romance with an old flame played by doe-eyed Rose Byrne.

The parade of tired tropes wears thin early on, and as the revelations pile up, you start to wonder how many complications a plot really needs. Fonda is stagey as a stock Crazy Older Woman, and Rose Byrne’s character only serves as a soft landing for Judd, with no character beyond her quirks.

But Bateman’s role is right in his wheelhouse, and his shrugging disappointment morphs into hope slowly enough that we root for him. It’s odd seeing Fey so bitter, and she pushes too hard at times to shake Liz Lemon’s sweetness, but by the end she shows us Wendy’s love and guilt without pity. Fey’s scenes with Bateman feel like real sibling love, harsh and solid. It’s their chemistry that anchors the film when everything else, including the script, falls apart. R. 103m.

Wilson, a married man, dealing with his separate property Duly Appointed Trustee: Foreclosure Specialists LLC Recorded 11/12/08 as Instrument No. 2008-26427-7 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of Humboldt County, California, Date of Sale: Monday, October 20, 2014 at 10:30 AM Place of Sale: On the steps to the front entrance to the County Courthouse, 825 5th Street, Eureka, CA 95501 The common designation of the property is purported to be: 5973 Highway 36, Carlotta, CA 95528 APN: 206-101-057 Estimated opening bid: $333,861.65 Beneficiary may elect to open bidding at a lesser amount. The total amount secured by said instrument as of the time of initial publication of this notice is stated above, which includes the total amount of the unpaid balance (including accrued and unpaid interest) and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of initial publication of this notice. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.

If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call the trustee’s information line at (530) 246-2727 or visit this Internet Web site: calforeclosures.biz, using the file number assigned to this case: TS # 14-2062. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

round 170 million years ago, in a period geologists call the Middle Jurassic, huge reptiles ruled the seas and skies: quarter-ton pterosaurs above, killer whalesize pliosaurs below. On land, shrew-like mammals were rapidly evolving as they dodged several new species of predatory dinosaurs. Meanwhile, some 20 miles below what we now think of as northeastern Humboldt County, heat generated from the grinding of the Pacific tectonic plate against the North American plate melted rocks into magma that would eventually become Salmon Mountain ridge.

Today, the highest point on that ridge — indeed the highest point in Humboldt County — is 6,960-foot Salmon Mountain itself. The peak lies on the border of Humboldt and Siskyou counties, with the triple-point Humboldt-Siskyou-Trinity node located about 400 yards to the southeast. Salmon Mountain and the surrounding terrain are made of the same stuff — granodiorite — as Plymouth Rock and Egypt’s Rosetta Stone (now in the British Museum). It’s this igneous rock, similar to granite, that originally formed as a pluton, or plug of volcanic magma, deep underground before being uplifted and eroded.

Deep within the Trinity Alps Wilderness section of Six Rivers National Forest, the peak is a remote and majestic spot.

Modern descendants of the conifers that (plant-wise) ruled this part of Earth back when the Salmon Mountain was being uplifted dominate the rugged country that

spreads out below in a 360-degree panorama. From here, you can appreciate the full width of Humboldt County: Thirtyfive miles to the west, the Pacific Ocean melts into the sky. Looking east, Mount Shasta and black-and-white Marble Gap stand out conspiciously.

HIKING DIRECTIONS: Salmon Mountain is a pretty painless half-day excursion, because the access road takes care of most of the elevation. From the trailhead, you’re left with just 1,600 feet to climb on a well-maintained 4-mile-long forested trail, plus a little bushwacking. To get to the trailhead, hang a right immediately after the Klamath bridge on State Route 96 just north of Orleans and drive east 19 miles, first on Red Cap Road, then on forestry road 10N01. Park and hike east, forking left about 3 miles in, where the right-hand fork is signed to Red Cap Lake.

When the main trail peters out, crosscountry up on faint tracks to the summit.

The lake, lying in a glacial cirque (a reminder that the whole area was once glaciated) is 1,300 feet below and a mile south of the peak, making for a secondary goal.

By the way, in summer and early fall, there’s no water on the trail. Jacob, Stella (the dog) and I hiked this in early July, on a day when the temperature in Orleans was 103 degrees. It didn’t feel much cooler at elevation, and Stella drank all our water.

You’re warned. l Barry Evans (barryevans9@yahoo.com) weighs one-tenth of a pound less on top of Salmon Mountain than in Eureka.
