A Gift

Today an unexpected gift

To come upon a grazing deer

She looked at us and stood quite still

Likewise did we to keep her there.

So gaze I did as she returned

To munching on the grass nearby

The timing gave me such a lift

As it was four years since my mother died.

I was in need of such a sight

The deer have long been named my totem

And on this day I could delight

In such a gracious, sacred moment.

— Lori Cole

I write on behalf of a group of us we have named the Humboldt Committee for Peace, Humanity and Justice for Palestine (Mailbox, May 30). We have met with Congressmember Hu man to urge him to support a ceasefire. But the bombings continue. This letter is about our concern for the children as we would have for all children. We are so fortunate here but are not immune to the traumas of some Humboldt County children. Childhood trauma can leave lifelong scars, disabilities, low self-esteem, etc. Fortunately our social safety net is hard at work: educating teachers, health professionals, police; o ering counseling, financial help, food, clothing, etc. It is still not easy.

Imagine now the hourly trauma of over eight months of war on the children and youth of Gaza. Over 15,000 innocent children have died. But what about the surviving children? Over 19,000 children are now orphans. Many have lost limbs, friends, siblings, parents, grandparents or their own hearing or eyesight. They have been uprooted, moved and moved again in

grief with fewer possessions, fewer family, increasing noise from bombs, crying, injured, shocked and witnessing ongoing death and destruction. Where is their social safety net? Schools are not only closed they are gone. Aid has been held up or routed elsewhere. Tens of thousands are approaching starvation. How are they to grow into young adults, into adults? Please urge your representatives to stop funding the military bombardment of innocent children.

We, as taxpayers, are responsible for inflicting unimaginable trauma to the children of Gaza that will not only last lifetimes but generations by funding Israel’s military. We have to stop this immediately by communicating with our Congressmember Jared Hu man, among others. Please write or call Hu man at his Washington, DC, o ce, (202) 225-5161, or his Eureka o ce, (707) 407-3585, or email him at: human.house.gov/contact/email-me.

Nonprofit Brings Free Dental, Medical Clinic to Humboldt

Two-day event will give free care to hundreds, no questions asked

By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

Tom Lewis has been a dentist for more than 50 years and has seen countless patients, but that one still stands out in his mind.

The man in his mid-40s showed up first thing in the morning at the clinic in Sacramento with his two teenage daughters. A contractor and single father, the man said he’d paid for his daughters’ dental care out of pocket but couldn’t afford his own, which was fine until one tooth started hurting — aching at first, then becoming an ever-present pain that was “killing him.” Lewis said he was serving as the triage dentist at intake and quickly identified the problem, said they could get it out quickly and told the man to stand by for an extraction, which Lewis later performed himself and said went “uneventfully.”

So, it was with some surprise when, hours and hours later, Lewis was leaving the clinic and walking out to his car after nightfall and heard someone screaming at him, “Dr. Lewis! Dr. Lewis!”

“He just screams at me and comes running over,” Lewis says, adding he was a bit alarmed at first. “He just says, ‘I’m out of pain. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate it. And then he started crying.”

Lewis pauses for a moment, thinking of that free-care clinic he volunteered at that treated 1,800 patients in two days in Sacramento, as well as the one he’s spearheaded bringing to Eureka on July 12 and July 13.

“That’s a demonstration of the need and the gratitude,” Lewis says.

Formed about a decade ago as the charitable arm of the California Associa-

tion of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, California CareForce has just three paid employees but depends on a web of volunteer healthcare professionals and community leaders to put on no-cost healthcare clinics throughout the state. The nonprofit used $2 million to $3 million in seed money to purchase a host of medical, dental and eye-care equipment it uses to outfit four free clinics annually held throughout the state, which are then staffed by local general and professional volunteers, who do everything from direct parking and check in patients to extracting teeth and doing physical exams.

Lewis, who practiced dentistry in Humboldt County from 1980 to 1996, says he began volunteering with the group in Roseville and found the work so rewarding he wound up on its board of directors. When he relocated back to Humboldt in 2020, it was with plans to bring a no-cost clinic to the area, where he says simply, “The need is huge.”

After getting the OK from the rest of the CareForce board, Lewis said he began raising money locally, hitting up the medical and dental societies, speaking at Rotary clubs and successfully getting grants from the health department and the Humboldt Area Foundation. In total, Lewis says he helped raise $75,000 that will be used to rent out the Adorni Center for two days, transport all CareForce’s equipment here in an 18-wheel truck and pay for supplies. He says organizers hope the clinic will serve at least 600 patients over its two days.

In a presentation to the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors earlier

• Largest in stock new & used inventory

• Competitive price guarantee

• Delivery and Service after the sale

this year, California CareForce Executive Director Cyndi Ankiewicz said the clinic is aimed to provide patients with dental treatments, basic medical care and vision screenings, with eyeglasses prepared on site. Additionally, she said they hope to coordinate “wrap-around” services, like mammography and chiropractic care.

She stressed that a basic CareForce principal is that, “Everyone, regardless of background or ability to pay, deserves access to quality healthcare.” She said patients will not be asked about their insurance coverage or to show their identification.

“All services are provided at no cost to all patients,” she said, adding that there are no restrictions based on income, age or immigration status, and that no one will be asked about their immigration status or insurance coverage. “We don’t ask any of those things. None of them actually matters to us. We just want to make sure they receive services.”

Lewis says the need for dental care is acute throughout the country, but there are also indications it is especially dire in Humboldt County.

A 2018 oral health needs assessment prepared by the California Center for Rural Policy at then-Humboldt State University found the county simply does not have enough providers that accept Denti-Cal to accommodate the more than 51,000 residents enrolled in the program locally. Further, the report found local residents are visiting emergency rooms for dental

conditions at a higher rate than the rest of California, with residents aged 18 to 34 doing so at a rate four times higher than the rest of the state. Additionally, the report noted, more than two-thirds of county residents don’t have access to fluoridated water, while one in four local kids enters Kindergarten with untreated tooth decay.

Lewis, who describes himself as “mostly retired,” says the tremendous need is why he’s dedicated himself to volunteering and gifting his services in recent years.

“As I retired, I thought, ‘I’m healthy, I know the need, I’ve got this skill,’ and I felt morally obligated to keep giving back,” he says. “The need is there, I can help, so why not?

Lewis says he’s recruited a handful of dentists to volunteer for the clinic — saying he went door-to-door with brochures to local practices — as well as a few dental hygienists, though there’s room for more. Additionally, he’s still looking for some physicians to fill shifts, and needs about 10 or 15 more general volunteers for each day at the clinic. (Those interested can sign up to volunteer at californiacareforce.org.)

The clinic will be open from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on July 12 and July 13, and patients will be seen on a first come, first served basis as capacity allows. The Adorni Center parking lot (1011 Waterfront Drive in Eureka) will open at 5:30 a.m., and patients are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, food, water and be prepared for long waits. Ankiewicz said special priority will be given to military veterans.

Lewis says at other clinics he’s seen folks arrive the evening before with sleeping bags to set up on the sidewalks out front.

“The need is so desperate that people will do that,” he says, adding that itself is an indictment of our current system. “Healthcare should be everybody’s right. Education, fire protection, police protection and universal healthcare, including dental, should be fundamental.”

According to Ankiewicz, e orts will be made to connect patients with permanent providers, whether primary care physicians or dental clinics, so they can continue receiving regular services.

“We know there’s a huge need there and we’re happy that we’re finally going to be able to get to Humboldt County to do this,” she said, adding there’s also still a need for in-kind donations, everything from food for volunteers to an ambulance service to stand by in case of medical emergencies, and that anyone interested in donating should visit the website for instructions how to do so.

Lewis, for his part, says a lot of work has gone into organizing this free clinic, but he hopes the two-day event is more a beginning than a culmination.

“I have a vision,” he says, “and I’d like this to be an annual event.” ●

Court Rejects Zoellner Appeal

Judges find officers had probable cause to support murder arrest

By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

The United States’ Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld a lower court ruling finding Arcata police had probable cause to arrest Kyle Zoellner on suspicion of murdering David Josiah Lawson, rejecting Zoellner’s claim for damages against the city.

The unanimous ruling filed June 25 rejects all five of Zoellner’s legal arguments, upholding the October 2022 decisions of United States District Court Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley, who overturned a jury’s verdict finding an Arcata detective violated Zoellner’s civil rights by instigating a malicious prosecution. The ruling also rejected other issues raised in Zoellner’s appeal, including that he was denied proper medical attention and that police defamed his character.

“Because the district court reached the correct result, we affirm,” the ruling states.

Zoellner filed the civil lawsuit in 2018, alleging police violated his civil rights when they arrested him April 17, 2017, at the scene of a house party off Alliance Road where Lawson, a 19-year-old Humboldt State University sophomore, had been fatally stabbed during a fight. Prosecutors alleged Zoellner stabbed Lawson multiple times with a kitchen knife during the last of several altercations that began after Zoellner’s then-girlfriend, Lila Ortega, began confronting people regarding her lost cell phone.

In the suit, Zoellner initially alleged police lacked probable cause to arrest him, denied him proper medical attention and defamed his character, though a judge later dismissed all those claims, leaving only an allegation that an Arcata police officer — detective Eric Losey — instigated a malicious prosecution by filing a false police report. Specifically, Zoellner’s attorneys contended that Losey acted with malice when he filed a report that

erroneously stated a witness had identified Zoellner as Lawson’s killer in order to get prosecutors to charge him with murder — a charge that was later dismissed by a local judge who found there wasn’t enough evidence to support it. Lawson’s killing remains unsolved, with the Arcata Police Department’s now seven-year-old investigation continuing.

There was no dispute Losey included inaccurate information in his report, falsely stating that witness Jason Martinez had identified Zoellner as the man he saw stab Lawson, when Martinez had simply offered a physical description similar to that of Zoellner. But during Zoellner’s preliminary hearing and since, Losey has contended the mistake was an honest one, with no malicious intent.

After a trial that spanned more than a week at a federal courthouse in San Francisco, which saw city and county officials testify, as well as Zoellner, a jury found that Zoellner had proven three of the four elements needed to support the malicious prosecution allegation. Specifically, the jury found that Losey was actively involved in causing Zoellner’s prosecution, that he acted “primarily for a purpose other than that of bringing Kyle Zoellner to justice” and that his conduct was a “substantial factor in causing harm” to Zoellner. Deeming Losey’s conduct “malicious,” the jury proposed awarding Zoellner a total of $776,300 in damages.

But the award was contingent on Corley deciding the fourth element — whether a reasonable officer with Losey’s knowledge at the time would have probable cause to believe Zoellner stabbed Lawson. In a 12-page ruling, Corley ruled there was ample reason for an officer in Losey’s position to find there was probable cause indicating Zoellner had committed the killing.

Corley detailed six factors in favor of the finding, including another witness’ account of finding Zoellner and Lawson fighting moments before realizing Lawson had been fatally stabbed, a determination that witness’ statements were credible, the lack of evidence that Lawson fought with anyone else that night, the fact Zoellner was found at the scene covered in blood, that a kitchen knife was found at the scene and Zoellner worked as a chef and had knives in his car that night, and that while Zoellner had an apparent motive, saying he’d been “sucker punched” by Lawson, “no other person with a motive to stab Mr. Lawson was identified.”

Zoellner’s appeal argued Corley erred in deciding the probable cause question, and also that her decision to dismiss the other allegations was not supported by law.

The appellate court disagreed on all fronts.

“Zoellner’s unlawful arrest and malicious prosecution claims fail because he has not shown any genuine issue of fact as to whether there was probable cause,” the ruling states. “Probable cause is a low standard and only requires ‘the fair probability or substantial chance’ that the suspect has committed a crime. … Here, ample undisputed evidence supports a ‘fair probability’ that Zoellner may have committed the crime. Zoellner was identified by witnesses at the scene as the ‘stabber’ and his clothes were covered in blood. The blood pattern on Zoellner’s clothes was not consistent with his own nosebleed. Zoellner also admitted to a physical fight that night with the victim, which was corroborated by an eyewitness. Additionally, a kitchen knife was found at the scene, and Zoellner worked as a chef.”

The appellate court also rejected the allegation that o cers were deliberately indi erent to Zoellner’s “serious medical

needs,” on the grounds that the facts were not extreme enough to trump responding o cers’ qualified immunity.

“While Zoellner was not taken to the hospital for at least an hour after o cer Nilsen detained him, Zoellner at first refused medical treatment,” the ruling states. “And shortly after Zoellner requested medical treatment, o cer Nilsen took him to the hospital. The hospital medically cleared Zoellner, and his medical release showed he only had facial lacerations and swelling.”

The appellate court also rejects Zoellner’s claim that he was defamed by the Arcata Police Department in two separate instances — once in a written probable cause statement detective Todd Dokweiler submitted to the court and again in comments former Chief Tom Chapman made to the North Coast Journal. The court found the claim regarding Dokweiler failed because the law protects statements made as a part of o cial duties during a judicial proceeding, which applies to the probable cause statement. Chapman, meanwhile, told the Journal that the case involved a “white male who stabbed and killed a Back male,” so it was “prudent and logical to look at race as an issue,” though the department had made no determination whether race was a factor in the case. The court found the statement was not defamatory because “there is no evidence that it was causally linked to Zoellner’s claimed actual damages,” which Zoellner alleged included lost earnings.

“We agree with the district court that Zoellner su ered his claimed injuries ‘simply because of the charges that had been filed against him’” and not because of what anyone said, the court ruled.

The ruling likely brings to an end civil litigation associated with Lawson’s death. Charmaine Lawson, David Josiah Lawson’s

mother, also brought a suit against the city in November of 2018, alleging that o cials violated her equal protection rights by inadequately and incompletely investigating the case. She also alleged racism and bias contributed to what the lawsuit described as “deliberately indifferent” policies and practices. Charmaine Lawson subsequently settled the case, with the city agreeing to pay $200,000, make a donation to the David Josiah Lawson Memorial Scholarship fund and agree to the painting of a memorial mural.

The Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury and the National Police Foundation both investigated the investigation into Lawson’s killing and issued reports that were sharply critical of the Arcata Police Department’s handling of the case — saying it was plagued by initial failures to bring allied agencies to assist with the investigation and to secure and manage the crime scene, as well as a lack of witness cooperation — but neither found evidence of racism or bias on the part of the department or o cers.

Zoellner has 40 days to petition the California Supreme Court to review the appellate decision, though he faces an uphill battle to get the court to accept the case, as it reviews only 5 percent of cases it’s petitioned to hear.

The Arcata Police Department’s investigation into Lawson’s killing, meanwhile, remains open, and the department asks anyone who attended the party where he was killed or has any information about the case to call (707) 825-2590.

SCOTUS Gives Cities More Power to Crack Down on Homeless Camps

The U.S. Supreme Court on June 28 granted cities more power to arrest, cite and fine people who sleep outside in public places — overturning six years of legal protections for homeless residents in California and other western states.

In Grants Pass v. Johnson, the court sided with Grants Pass in a 6-3 decision —ruling an ordinance passed by the Oregon city that essentially made it illegal for homeless residents to camp on all public property was not unconstitutional.

The much-anticipated decision overturns a prior influential Ninth Circuit appellate ruling, and means cities no longer are prohibited from punishing unhoused residents for camping if they have nowhere else to go. It will have major ramifications for how California leaders and law enforcement, including those in Humboldt County, handle homeless encampments.

Activists supporting the civil rights of unhoused people decried the ruling, saying it could result in people getting arrested simply for being homeless.

“It will make homelessness worse, in California and Grants pass and across the country,” said Jesse Rabinowitz, spokesperson for the National Homelessness Law Center. “We know that throwing people in jail and giving them thousands of dollars in tickets makes it harder for them to find jobs, harder for them to find housing and harder for them to exit homelessness.”

But groups representing cities, counties, law enforcement organizations and business interests cheered the decision, saying it would finally allow for the removal of unsafe, unsanitary encampments. Even Gov. Gavin Newsom weighed in, filing a “friend of the court” brief in which he wrote: “Hindering cities’ efforts to help their unhoused populations is as inhumane as it is unworkable.”

“Homelessness is a crisis in California. The misguided Ninth Circuit decision has tied the hands of local officials, allowing encampments to multiply unchecked,” California Republican Rep. Kevin Kiley of Rocklin said in an email to CalMatters. “Cities need to be able to act to protect public health and safety, while at the same time connecting those

in need with services.”

Those who are or have been homeless are worried about what happens now. Anita De Asis Miralle, who goes by “Needa Bee,” was homeless for about eight years before finding housing in Oakland earlier this year. De Asis Miralle, who advocates for other unhoused people through her grassroots group The Village, worries the ruling will lead to cities disregarding their rights. Already, she said, she’s seen Oakland clear encampments without offering occupants adequate shelter. To her, those sweeps rip apart communities and take away people’s precarious sense of stability.

“The big fear is not only how bold they’re going to be,” De Asis Miralle said, “but how much deeper into instability and trauma and homelessness it will drive people.”

How we got here

The case stems from a 2018 lawsuit against Grants Pass, a small city in Southern Oregon that banned camping throughout its jurisdiction. The lower courts sided with homeless residents who argued that because humans need to sleep somewhere, the Grants Pass ordinance made it illegal to be homelessness.

That decision was in line with an earlier Ninth Circuit appellate ruling – Martin v. Boise — which determined that punishing an unhoused person for camping in public, if they have nowhere else to go, violates the Constitution’s Eighth Amendment ban on cruel and unusual punishment.

The 2018 Boise ruling changed how cities respond to homeless encampments. Many interpreted the court decision to mean that they could not clear an encampment unless they had a shelter bed available for every displaced resident.

Local courts have hit several California cities, including San Francisco, Sacramento, Chico and San Rafael, with orders halting or delaying encampment clean-ups due to lack of adequate shelter.

The COVID pandemic made the situation more complex. In 2020, federal health regulations recommended that cities not clear any encampments, in order to limit the spread of the virus and protect vulnerable homeless residents. Encampments in many California

in the Grants Pass case April 22.

Supreme Court in Washington, D.C.,

cities grew and became more entrenched, with residents building make-shift shacks out of scraps of wood and metal.

When vaccines arrived and concern about the pandemic gradually died down, it left in its wake a growing discontent over the proliferation of homeless encampments in public open spaces. With that came a chorus of complaints from city leaders and law enforcement that the Boise ruling stripped them of the power to enforce rules regarding homeless residents.

It’s an issue that’s particularly crucial in California, which is home to nearly a third of the country’s homeless population. More than 180,000 unhoused people live in the Golden State, including more than 123,000 people who sleep in encampments or other places not meant for habitation.

Multiple California cities already are cracking down on those homeless camps. Some are getting around the Boise ruling by banning camps in certain areas rather than throughout the entire city. San Diego recently started enforcing a controversial ordinance that prohibits camps near schools, shelters and transit hubs, in parks, and – if shelter beds are available – on all public sidewalks. At the same time, the city opened two sanctioned tent campsites where about 500 unhoused people can sleep.

San Diego’s ordinance has led to a noticeable decrease in the number of homeless residents camping downtown. But camping is just as prevalent — if not more so — along highway on- and off-ramps, and along the San Diego River.

State Senate Bill 1011 by GOP leader Brian Jones would have imposed a statewide

camping ban similar to San Diego’s. But the bill died in its first committee hearing, suggesting a lack of appetite for a statewide crackdown.

Activists who provide homeless services, as well as researchers who study the population, say cities should not be able to break up encampments with impunity. Encampment sweeps cause homeless residents to lose important belongings and documents, push them farther away from their sources of food, medicine and other services, and — especially if arrests or citations are involved — make it harder for them to find jobs and housing, according to experts.

“The enforcement of laws criminalizing homelessness has been shown to have wide-ranging and lingering negative impacts on those experiencing homelessness, which create significant barriers to exiting homelessness,” a group of more than 50 social scientists specializing in homelessness wrote in a “friends of the court” brief in the Grants Pass case.

The Supreme Court heard oral arguments in April. In their comments and questions, the justices appeared divided along ideological lines, with the liberal justices more sympathetic to the arguments of the homeless residents. The Supreme Court has a 6-3 conservative majority.

Underscoring the importance of the case, more than three dozen elected officials and organizations weighed in by filing “friend of the court” briefs.

The Jury Is In

Occupying a unique oversight role, the 2023-2024 civil grand jury completes its work with an uncertain future

By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

California’s civil grand jury system is enshrined in the state constitution, which requires a group of citizens be impaneled annually in all 58 of its counties to watch over local governments. The system is as old as the state itself and unique across the country.

In Humboldt County, it also hangs in the balance, with a lack of applicants threatening to fundamentally alter the watchdog body’s makeup and function.

The Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury recently published its eighth and final report of the 2023-2024 session, which came with an advisement that the Humboldt County Superior Court “is in desperate need of jurors” to fill the 2024-2025 grand jury. John Heckel, a retired professor who has served on the local grand jury three times, including twice as foreperson, and who also volunteers with the Civil Grand Jurors’ Association, says this news is part of a decade-long trend of declining applicants.

If the trend continues and the superior court, of which the civil grand jury is an arm, is unable to fill the jury with 19 volunteer applicants, it may have to shift course into a summons system similar to that used for criminal jury trials. And Heckel says that could have dire impacts on the oversight body’s e ectiveness.

To date, the superior court has annually received enough volunteer applicants to fill the 19-person jury and impanel a group of alternates willing to make the one-year commitment, which sees jurors spend from six to more than 30 hours a week as a group investigating complaints and issues in local government and authoring reports. But if enough volunteers don’t come forward, the county is legally required to look to other means for filling the jury.

The Del Norte County Superior Court

shifted years ago to a summons system and each year sends mandatory jury summons to residents. Prospective jurors are sent summons in the mail and required to appear in court, where they are then ordered to serve on the grand jury unless they can show good cause as to why they can’t, according to Heckel.

But unlike criminal trials, which typically last days and rarely longer than a couple of weeks, a civil grand juror is committed to serving the entire year.

Heckel recalls a joint training the Civil Grand Jurors’ Association put together

for Humboldt and Del Norte counties’ jurors some years back, saying the contrast between the groups was striking.

“The di erence in attitude between the people who had volunteered and the people who were forced to be there, it was like day and night,” he says.” You don’t want a group of 19 people who have all been forced to be there. It’s not conducive to doing good research. It’s not conducive to doing good writing. You want people who want to be there, who have time to do it and the commitment to do it.”

Sitting in a co ee shop in Old Town

Eureka, 2023-2024 Grand Jury Foreperson Richard Bergstresser agrees, and emphasizes that it’s the people themselves who formulate the strength of a civil grand jury. Having released the last of the group’s eight reports the night before, Bergstresser notes the year’s jurors produced 163 pages of reports on topics ranging from citizen oversight of the Humboldt County Sheri ’s O ce and the county’s hiring practices to the fiscal health of the Arcata Fire Protection District and Eureka City Schools’ handling of its controversial $6 million property exchange agreement to o oad its old Jacobs Middle School campus.

Bergstresser, a retired Arcata police detective, says this year’s jury included two former police o cers, a poet, a couple retired county health department employees, a retired industrial equipment salesperson, a private sector social worker, a retired professor and a wine expert. The group ranged in age from 55 to their early 80s.

“That’s really the strength of the grand jury, all that diversity of background,” Bergstresser says, noting his jury came with more than 500 years of professional experience, as well as 1,000 or so years of life experience. “That’s a lot of knowledge.”

Bergstresser says these individuals pledged to put their personal beliefs, preconceived notions and political ideologies aside to work as a group, noting the civil grand jury isn’t a group of 19 people but a 19-person organism that acts as a body, with a super-majority of 12 needed to approve any significant action, whether it be launching an investigation or publishing a report.

Heckel says this immediately struck him when he served on his first grand jury, calling it “one of the most remarkable experi-

2023-2024 Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury. Top left: Stephen Avis, Daryl Chinn Top right, Larry Giventer, Candy

ences I’d had,” spending the year working with a diverse group of people united in a desire to investigate, research, problem solve and improve their community.

“Nobody talks politics,” he says. “You don’t want to know what someone else’s politics are when you’re on the grand jury. You come to the end of the year and you potentially made friends with someone who is a Trump supporter but you don’t know it because there are certain conversations that are simply not had. There are ground rules set when entering the room with these people. It allows you to see beyond all the stereotypes that we quickly create. … I was a professor for 50 years and I never had an experience like that.”

notes that a lot of the work can be done on jurors’ own schedule.

Nonetheless, the time commitment, the lack of pay and the travel requirements for those in outlying areas of the county invariably pose barriers to service for many.

Those serving are reimbursed for vehicle milage at the federal reimbursement rate and given a stipend of $20 for every seven hours of service, so jurors essentially volunteer their time. Some counties are able to pay jurors more — in Los Angeles County, for example, jurors work 40-hour weeks but are given a stipend of about $20,000 a year — and state Assemblymember Phil Ting, D-San Francisco, has introduced legislation that would pay grand jurors $100 a day.

Crack The Vault

The commitment is formidable, though. Bergstresser says his jury had required three-hour meetings twice a week to start, with the first two or three months focused on educating jurors about the civil grand jury’s role and mandates, as well as investigative and interview techniques. He says the group sifted through complaints — which numbered 30 to 40 in each of the last two years. About half of those concerned things outside the grand jury’s jurisdiction — state or federal agencies, for example — and about half of those remained focused on singular instances.

“It’s the only system where the citizens have an active engagement in being a watchdog over whether the county, and the cities and special districts, are really doing what they’re supposed to be doing.”

— Former Humboldt County Civil Grand Juror John Heckel

But Heckel says he feels paying jurors creates new problems, saying there’s value in both civil grand jurors volunteering and the demographic that serves as a result.

“By nature of the grand jury, the average age is going to be like 65 — they’re elders,” he says, speculating that this was perhaps what the crafters of California’s government had in mind back in 1854. “It may very well be the California civil grand jury system is meant to be for the elders of our community to look at situations and come up with solutions.”

And that’s ultimately the civil grand jury’s mandate — not to hand up criminal indictments or take punitive action, but to analyze systems and problems, publish findings and recommend solutions.

Bergstresser says the grand jury’s focus isn’t single occurrences, but systems, though sometimes a complaint about an isolated incident can lead to a broader investigation and report. This was the case with this year’s report calling for a system of citizen oversight over the sheri ’s o ce, Bergstresser says, noting it began after a single use-of-force complaint that the jury chose to review through a broader context of transparency and oversight.

Unlike the press or other watchdog organizations, the civil grand jury has the power to subpoena witnesses and documents, meaning it can legally force agencies to turn over documents and people to appear before it to answer questions.

Jurors’ commitment generally grows as the year goes on, Bergstresser says, noting they typically served six to 12 hours a week from July through December, increasing to 12 to 18 hours a week from January through May as investigations picked up, peaking at 18 to 30 hours a week in June as the jury works to publish all its reports. While the commitment is formidable, Bergstresser

“The civil grand jury system in the state of California is unique in the entire United States,” Heckel says. “It’s the only system where the citizens have an active engagement in being a watchdog over whether the county, and the cities and special districts, are really doing what they’re supposed to be doing. They make recommendations that then become part of the public record, that require responses. People really and truly need to understand what a unique and incredibly valuable thing the grand jury system is in the country. Nobody else has a system like it.”

Heckel says he thinks part of the reason applications to serve on the grand jury are declining is that the civil grand jury lacks a champion to promote it. It exists as an arm of the court, which is underfunded

and overwhelmed by its criminal and civil caseloads. And the county government it watches over does little to sing its praises or promote it, sometimes treating it as a nuisance, Heckel says.

“If county government, the board of supervisors, if they really cared about the civil grand jury, there’s a lot they could do to increase public interest in getting on the grand jury, a lot they could do to validate what the grand jury does,” he says.

As it is, he says there’s an attrition in public interest, noting that local media generally covers the civil grand jury’s reports as they’re published, but often fails to follow up as agencies approve their required responses 60 or 90 days later, with virtually no coverage of whether agencies implement the jury’s recommendations over time. Bergstresser says this can be disheartening for jurors.

“When you see your work dismissed … it can feel like it invalidates 12 months of your work,” he says.

But Bergstresser says he believes everyone who served on this year’s grand jury feels good about having done it, producing work they feel proud of and forging bonds with their fellow jurors, both through the work itself and gatherings, like monthly lunches and holiday get-togethers.

Ultimately, he says, jurors are brought together by the ideal of reform and the idea that a group of citizens working together can look at complex problems and help solve them.

“It’s the only legally empowered forum in the state and county that has the power of subpoena, the promise of secrecy and the mandate of oversight of local government,” he says.

“It’s

Currently, complaints and critical incidents are reviewed internally, the report states, noting that while the grand jury has some oversight authority, its objective is broad and does not include reviewing individual cases. As such, the grand jury recommended the county establish a two-pronged oversight model that would include a civilian oversight board and an office of the inspector general. The board would review and make recommendations regarding the sheriff’s office, while the inspector general would conduct independent, professional reviews of critical incidents and provide “advice regarding law enforcement policies and practices.”

Custody and Corrections

As a part of its mandate, the civil grand jury toured local “custody and corrections” facilities, including the jail, the animal shelter and Sempervirens Psychiatric Facility, and reported on problems that need to be addressed. Common issues included needed repairs, maintenance and upgrading of buildings, as well as “significant understaffing, leading to substantial amounts of required overtime.” This leads to staff fatigue and attrition, though the report notes the jury “observed laughter and teamwork in the workplace,” and discovered many county employees enjoy their work. The dense report includes multiple findings and recommendations for a variety of facilities. Most noteworthy among them were a finding of a “serious shortage of staff” at Sempervirens, “resulting in additional stress on existing staff that may affect patient care.”

Sheriff’s Office Oversight

— 2023-2024 Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury Foreperson Richard Bergstresser

The first report from this year’s grand jury found that Humboldt County does not have an independent system of oversight and review of critical incidents and allegations of misconduct involving the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office, which “can lead to public misunderstanding and mistrust of law enforcement.”

The civil grand jury found the county pays nearly $6 million annually to lease office space for employees, asking whether it would make fiscal sense for the county to purchase the facilities it uses. The grand jury acknowledges this is not a new question or something that can be fixed quickly, while finding citizens would be better served if the county consolidated offices and worked to own more of the buildings it uses, which would “build equity and, in the long-term, reduce expenses.” The county master plan already calls for the consolidation of services and “recognizes ownership is preferable to leasing,” so the grand jury simply recommends the county “accelerate enactment

Eureka City Schools

In one of its hardest hitting reports of the year, the civil grand jury investigated the Eureka City Schools Board of Trustees’ approval of a property exchange agreement between the district and a mystery developer, AMG Communities-Jacobs LLC., under which the district would receive $5.35 million and a small residential property on I Street in exchange for 8.3 acres of the former Jacobs Middle School site. The civil grand jury makes clear its investigative focus was not “whether the transaction is a good or bad idea for the district,” but trustees’ decision-making process. In that regard, the grand jury found that trustees violated the spirit of California open meeting laws by not giving the public time and information necessary to meaningfully participate in the decision, while failing to exercise due diligence and becoming “knowingly or unknowingly roped into” an ongoing political fight over the future of Eureka’s Old Town and

downtown parking lots. The report — thanks to the civil grand jury’s subpoena power — builds on local news reporting on the agreement, concluding the situation “can be considered a business case study and object lesson to elected boards in California of how not to go about the process of selling surplus real estate.” It calls on trustees to “make details of the Jacobs property negotiations and ongoing status of the transaction known to the public by Oct. 1,” among other recommendations.

Humboldt County Hiring

Having noticed a plethora of past civil grand jury reports noted sta ng as a constraint for county agencies, this year’s grand jury took a look at the county’s hiring practices and found that “understa ng is one of the largest problems facing our county.” The report details challenges department by department, concluding that understa ng is a pervasive issue, with approximately 500 of the 2,400 allocated positions in the county currently vacant, equaling a 21-percent vacancy rate that ranked second highest in a seven-county of their plan,” with the warning: “The clock is ticking; $500,000 is spent every month to lease buildings.”

Arcata Fire District

Noting Humboldt County’s unhoused and underinsured residents in active and severe states of behavioral health crisis have few options, the civil grand jury investigated street and behavioral health comparison. One of the report’s key findings is that the county’s human resources o ce is itself understa ed, which hampers hiring in all departments. Overall, the grand jury found county hiring processes are long, reducing applicant pools, and that pay levels are low relative to similar counties, which hinders recruitment and retention. The jury recommended the county prioritize filling its human resource o ce vacancies and adopt a “best practices” guide and training program to guide hiring in all departments. It also recommended the board of supervisors adjust compensation levels to be more competitive “when the county budget situation improves.”

on the fire department, which currently cannot a ord a ladder truck. The report notes the district is facing increasing costs — from fuel and equipment to insurance — and one of its primary funding sources, a special tax approved by voters in 2020, is slated to sunset in 2030. The report finds the district is no longer able to invest in its vehicle replacement fund, current sta ng levels are insu cient, and population growth and larger structures in the district “will result in greater danger and risk to people and property.” The jury recommends the district work to inform the public of its “impending financial di culties,” put forward a ballot measures to sure up its revenue streams and explore with Cal Poly Humboldt “opportunities for the university to o er financial assistance.”

The Arcata Fire District is approaching “desperate financial conditions” that may require it to reduce service levels, the civil grand jury found. While the district is currently able to sta all its stations, the report warns that a combination of future fiscal uncertainty and Cal Poly Humboldt and city of Arcata plans to build high-rise buildings could have a profound impact

Behavioral Health Street Outreach

outreach models in an e ort to determine what has been e ective. Specifically, the report looks at the Mobile Intervention Services Team (MIST) and Crisis Alternative Response Eureka (CARE) programs. The investigation found that “proactive outreach” for behavioral health, substance use and other services in the field is ideal, as “clients can be treated before they hit the point of crisis” and “live better lives.” The jury found the original MIST, a collaboration between the Eureka Police Department and the county Department of Health and Human Services, produced positive results, and that EPD’s Community Safety Enhancement Team has since provided similar services. Eureka’s new CARE program also appears effective, the report found, though a new grant-funded county MIST team with the sheri ’s o ce has not displayed “significant, tangible results. The report finds that secure, ongoing funding sources are vital to allow these programs to “grow to maturity,” noting the programs may pay for themselves in the long run through reduced hospitalizations, calls for law enforcement service and jail bookings. “Everyone needs a chance, and everyone sometimes needs help,” the report states. “We find these necessities especially true for our unhoused citizens who struggle with behavioral health and substance use issues. Helping these vulnerable citizens lift themselves out of desperate situations is in the best interest of everyone in our community and is simply the right thing to do.”

Child Welfare Services

“Everyone needs a chance, and everyone sometimes needs help. We find these necessities especially true for our unhoused citizens who struggle with behavioral health and substance use issues.”

— 2023-2024 Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury report

The civil grand jury’s final report of the year was blistering, finding that the Humboldt County Child Welfare Services (CWS) O ce of the Ombudsperson created in 2018 as a part of a legal settlement with the state of California to give voices to families involved in the system “does not follow through on promises made.” While CWS touts the o ce as independent, the grand jury concluded “CWS has an O ce of the Ombudsperson in name only,” finding many complainants are never informed of the outcomes of their complaints and the public has no way to know whether violations have “been addressed individually or systematically.” The o ce as currently constructed “does not fulfill its stated [oversight] mission and instead serves as an ine ective complaint department,” the report states, concluding that the county should either raise the “standards, transparency and responsiveness” of the o ce or replace it with a complaint line “that does not promise investigation or response.” The report concludes: “Continuing with what is an O ce of the Ombudsperson in name only does not provide public service, it just minimally attempts to comply with the letter of the 2018 legal agreement.” ●

Falafelove Blooms in King Salmon

By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill jennifer@northcoastjournal.com

Alow chalkboard sign with the words “falafel” and “open” is the only warning before you miss the turn into the recently opened Falafelove’s little parking lot in King Salmon (1125 King Salmon Ave.). Inside, with jars of preserved lemons and olives overhead, owner Avi Leibson hustles between a fryer basket of browned falafel and a pan of hot chicken.

When he first opened the shop, Leibson says, “It seemed like people who knew what falafel was didn’t know where King Salmon was and people who knew where King Salmon was didn’t know what falafel was.” But he was undaunted. “People were like, ‘What’s fa-lufa,’” to which he’d respond, “Got two minutes? I’ll fry you one up fresh.” In just a month, Falafelove has managed to draw fans of Mediterranean food and curious newbies alike to the outof-the-way location.

“It’s the food I grew up eating,” says Leibson, who was raised on his Moroccan mother’s cooking and describes his family as having Mediterranean roots. The Mo-

roccan fish on Falafelove’s menu ($16.99) is a dish his family ate on Fridays for Shabbat dinner. Here, he makes it with local rockfish poached in tomatoes, peppers and garlic, but the flavor profile is close to what he recalls his mother making. “I got knife skills from dad and spice skills from mom,” he says. Both have come in handy, sometimes in unexpected settings.

Leibson says he started working in restaurants as a teen, first washing dishes and eventually as a line cook. He says he kept cooking while in the U.S. Navy and afterward, when he came to Humboldt. “I came out here for the Green Rush, working for weed farms,” he says, adding he would find himself in the position of “trim mom,” making meals on site when it came out he could cook. As the cannabis market took a dive, he says he headed to Alaska for commercial fishing work. At sea, he once again ended up cooking for the crew. After years of friends asking when he’d open his own place, Leibson made a stab at a food truck but says the hunt for a commercial kitchen was going nowhere.

Coming across the King Salmon location made a brick-and-mortar restaurant seem possible. He says he feels anchored, happy to finally be cooking in his own place and enamored of the neighborhood. “I wanna stay here as long as I can stand on my feet and make good food,” he says. “I’m blown away because I don’t have any traditional culinary training. … I’m stoked, dude.”

The namesake falafel have thin crusts that break open to reveal a verdant blend of parsley, cilantro, chickpeas, onion, jalapeño, sesame, cumin, coriander and garlic. The wrapped version ($11.99) comes with four of 10 sides, ranging from lemony beets to green schug with a little bite and onions quickly pickled with sumac and fresh mint, all tucked in a soft flour tortilla. (Listen, it works and if you need proof of the success of Mediterranean-Mexican collaboration, please refer to the Lebanese immigrants who brought vertical rotisseries to Mexico, eventually yielding tacos al pastor and generally improving the world.)

Further evidence among the sides is the Medi Pico, finely chopped cucumber, tomatoes, peppers and onions in a light Mediterranean-style dressing. The babaganoush comes by its rich smokiness honestly, fire roasted and rested overnight before it’s hand-whipped with tahini, lemon juice, olive oil and salt. Tamar’s Spicy Carrots are a recipe from Leibson’s friend Tamar Armstrong Krigel, and pair a touch of heat with nutty sweetness. “Her cooking is far superior to mine,” he says.

The malabi ($4.50), a milk pudding scented with rosewater, topped with a

float of fuschia hibiscus syrup and a dusting of coconut and chopped pistachio, is a rare treat locally. Dating back to ancient Persia, it also makes the case for pudding as romantic. (Farewell lava cakes, we’re back to wooing with pudding.)

Leibson outfitted the kitchen with second-hand appliances, and the little dining room has had a DIY makeover with wood paneling, plants and thrifted décor, courtesy of “scrappy” manager Tony Dontchev. Once the starter home of Sammy’s BBQ, the back patio catches the sun and overlooks a little waterway (comparisons to Venice speak more to local generosity than architecture). For now, Falafelove is a two-person operation open Friday through Sunday, with Liebson scratch making “everything except for the wraps.” But there are plans to add Thursdays soon.

“I’m in King Salmon and I have low overhead … it’s a really great spot,” Leibson says. He’s hopeful the setup will allow him to keep prices where they are and not sacrifice homemade touches. “I feel like I can hook up people if they’re willing to come out here,” he says.

Leibson says he’s mostly excited to share his food and his love of these flavors with people, hence the name Falafelove. “It isn’t called ‘Falafel-get-rich.” ●

Fanfare for the Common Man

By Collin Yeo music@northcoastjournal.com

WSaturday

hile I am not a fan of historical hypotheticals and counterfactual guesswork, it is enticing to imagine what a different world we’d all be living in if instead of that homicidal hayseed from Missouri, Harry S. Truman, FDR’s previous sidekick Henry Wallace had been vice president when Roosevelt died. Wallace was an avid reformer in many good ways and historically one of the most left-friendly politicians to hold high office in America. I have limited space in this column and in my own frazzled mind, so I’ll instead just steer you toward the title of this week’s Setlist, named after a famous piece of homegrown glory music inspired by Wallace’s words and written by one of our greatest composers, Aaron Copland. It’s really quite something and never fails to bring to my mind the finest features of our people — qualities that I certainly believe the majority of you, dear readers, must share. Here’s to you for keeping up the struggle during times of trouble. May you all celebrate that this week. I’ll certainly be celebrating you and your efforts.

Thursday, Fourth of July

The Sanctuary is continuing its successful jazz concert series, with this fourth installment, a celebration of the King of New Orleans and beyond, and the world’s biggest ambassador to jazz himself, Louis Armstrong. At 7 p.m., join James Zeller, Don Hammerstedt and company for an evening of the stuff that made the 20th century sparkle, from the sacred epicenter of Congo Square out across the globe and, I would argue, beyond ($15-$30 sliding scale).

Sunday

It’s Independence Day and the Shanty is the place to be for a matinee of loud music and patio partying under the Humboldt sun. As is normal for the place, today’s show is free, but is a 2 p.m. matinee gig rather than a night show, so you still have time for fireworks when the sunsets. Three bands, all ripping in their own way: The Real D.T.s, Silver & Nails and Something Wicked. Sounds like an alchemical recipe for success.

Friday

The Miniplex is putting on a punk and pop-punk mash-up gig tonight at 9 p.m., starring Portland’s queer solo-to-collective act New Here, and featuring local support from a well-picked set of comrades in the form of the bands Blub and Vegan Slaughterhouse. The show is $5-$10 sliding scale and NOTAFLOF, so share what you have if you can.

Humboldt Hot Air, our region’s free internet radio station and a beacon of the off-beat and pulse for the proper goods since KHSU was assassinated, is holding a fundraising fest today at the Arcata Playhouse and adjacent areas. This free, all-ages “fun-raising” event will feature two stages for live music, vendors, food trucks, a vinyl record sale and much more. Some of the excellent bands on board include Datura Blues, Shiny Eyes, Henpecker (back in the saddle again), Dinner Service (I can’t be the only one who has missed this band due to a literal interpretation of the name), Barking Dogma, Mo’Love and more. It’s an eight-hour event, so even if you miss the noon starting whistle, there are many pockets of pleasure to distract over the course of the day.

Monday

Steve Poltz wears a lot of hats, including the actual style accessories and UV

protectors, some of those hats include singer, songwriter, guitar picker, fully booked road dog, and a chooser of good collaborators for his style of jaunty and jocular tunes. I do not know whether he chose Trinidad Town Hall for this evening’s gig, but whoever did has the wisdom of King Solomon, as the warm, wooden joint is perfect for his sonic shenanigans. Check it out for yourself at 7 p.m. for $25, a fair price for a midsummer delight.

Tuesday

I was just this weekend chatting with one of my Texas brothers in arms from my musical touring days and we agreed that no place creates brilliant counterculture artists quite like the Lone Star State. From the Butthole Surfers to Townes Van Zandt to The Flatlanders, it’s a special place, love it or hoof it. The latter group is a fantastic country-ish trio featuring Jimmie Dale Gilmore. Those unfamiliar with the man’s music will probably recognize him as Smokey, the diminutive bowler who Walter threatens with a gun for a supposed infraction in the Coen Brothers classic The Big Lebowski. Tonight at the Arcata Theatre Lounge, you will find him playing in The Guilty Ones, a band he fronts with Dave Alvin, another classic oddball roots rock and roll weirdo, albeit one from our state. These fellas are solid legends and I am certainly not alone in that opinion. The $50 ($45 in advance) ticket might seem a little high, but considering you get Badger State bard Paul Cebar on the bill as well, I think it’s well-worth it if you are a fan of

the kind of goods that used to get folks returning to Austin City Limits during its PBS heyday of the ’80s and ’90s, when many more of the greats that walked with these fellas were still alive.

Wednesday

Humbrews hosts the next-generation of a beloved talent — and his late, famous, jam band King of Hearts friend and cohort — at 8 p.m. tonight for $25, a sum I guarantee many of you in the jam world will be seriously considering after reading below. The Sam Grisman Project is helmed by the son of David Grisman, pioneering mandolinist who was often the partner of Jerry Garcia when the latter felt like breaking out the acoustics, chucking the amps and digging out old songbooks and new to babble some folk, bluegrass, jazz and beyond. This fusion was dubbed by the duo “dawg music,” with an emphasis on bringing new life into old forms and sharing the often excellent results with all people everywhere. The younger Grisman has dedicated his considerable abilities and those of his players to preserving and expanding on this theme. The new crop of dawgs. And why not? Seems a more noble use of his skills than what a lot of legacy kids get up to. Check it out. ●

Collin Yeo (he/him) enjoys Aaron Copland’s music but can’t miss pointing out that the beloved national composer’s surname was essentially “Cop Land,” a perfect nickname for America.

Resilient Crabs Rally Behind Three Walk-off Wins

By Brandon Dixon getout@northcoastjournal.com

Sunday’s game was bigger than the others. A win in this contest would signal the first conference series win of the new era of Crabs baseball, while a loss would mean far more. Despite palpable tension, coach John Bryant sat calmly reading his book, the fifth in a 13-volume series, pregame outside of the dugout. Sunday day games are when Bryant (a fellow former Orange Coast Pirate) takes the opportunity to read outside in the elements — the crowd all around him. He’s able to focus and find a center. I walked to the fence with our usual greeting, “How you doing, you old Pirate?”

He set his book aside for two ticks and answered, “Hey lefty. Ask me in three hours.”

After I wished him luck, he said, “Thank you, we need this one,” and locked fingers with me through the net for a second.

It’s already been a trying season for our Crabs with more travel, a new conference and accelerated competition. Walking among the two teams pre-game, the opponents looked more like villains from a Mighty Duck movie. The roster showed a bunch of schools not usually represented against the Crabs. It’s a new era for our Crabbies and, though it may be trial by fire, this season will go down as the one that brought an amazing brand of the greatest game on earth to Humboldt. After a promising non-conference start that saw the good guys drop two games in the first 11, the Crabs would embark on a humbling and unforgiving road trip of conference games. Our boys of summer would return home 0-6, reeling and needing a spark to turn things around. Arcata Ballpark has a way of exorcising demons and the Crabs and their faithful would do everything to turn the season around.

Tuesday night — Star Wars Night, fittingly — it felt like our boys were coming home from a galaxy far, far away. Kicking off the two-game, non-conference set against the Athletic Edge Express, Zach Romero would make his first start of the summer, tossing five innings of one-run ball to pick up his first win, while Victor “Big Stick Vic” Castaneda would add two hits, three RBI, and his fourth homerun. Jett Ruby, who has been the ultimate table setter this summer would reach base five times, with two hits, three walks and a stolen base. The force was strong with the Crabbies as they rolled 11-2 to end the slide.

But Wednesday night, the fun would really begin. Entering the final frame trailing 6-5, in danger of losing a home game to a winless team, Antonio Avila would reach first after being hit by a pitch. Up came Trent Keys. Following a pitching change, Avila would steal second to put the tying run on second. Then Keys saw a fastball. I say he “saw” it because he hit it 400 feet over the fence and the entire stadium exploded. “I wasn’t trying to do too much, the top of the lineup was behind me and I have total confidence in them. I was just trying to find something I could do damage with — this is an incredible feeling,” said Keys. The Crabs would storm the field victorious and walk off 7-6, but a conference foe who had just swept them loomed large entering the weekend series.

After dropping the opening game of the series 6-4 to the Potters, Saturday night would feature another solid outing from local Cameron Saso. The McKinleyville native would make it into the seventh inning giving up one run, but the bats weren’t there and the Crabs would have to rely on a walk to tie the game

in the bottom of the ninth. In the 10th, the raucous crowd would start to make noise and it would take its toll on the Potters to the tune of three errors. That would set up Troy Harding, who came up with a huge line drive single to score Jett Ruby, and the Crabs would walk off again victorious.

Sunday, on Harry Potter Day, the Crabs would have more wizardry up their sleeves. In a game that moved quickly, and was error free and clean through the first eight frames, the Crabs would enter the ninth trailing 2-1. The Lincoln Potters would add two runs in the top to create an ominous situation for the good guys. Trailing 4-1 as they entered the bottom of the ninth, there came the Crab faithful. The cowbells, the band, the hecklers and the stomping would work their magic again, as the Potters were haunted by the same infield yips that plagued them the night before. Trent Keys would reach on an error, advance on a passed ball, steal third and score on a wild pitch to tie the game. Two errors in the inning would prove costly for the Potters as the Crabs tied it up. Tremendous performances on the mound from relief pitchers Bryce Stockton and Max Hippenstell would keep things tied until the bottom of the 11th, when with a runner on second base, Colin Callahan, came to the plate. Callahan, who played an amazing game defensively at short, was still busy shaking off a ground ball to the temple he took in the ninth. The stomping, the chanting, the cowbells returned. The park was absolutely electric. Callahan laid down a bunt that was on its way to being a single, but his speed and the situation rushed the pitcher, who would field it and throw it over the first baseman’s head and up the first baseline. For the third time in a week,

the Crabs stormed the field, Gatorade cooler in hand, ready to celebrate. They had done it again.

“I knew the crowd had the pitcher rattled. I just thought if I could make him field it we had a chance,” said Callahan. “I just knew he’d throw it away.”

Starting pitcher Nolan Long, who battled his way through another quality start, echoed that sentiment. “I look up and I see three errors for them, and none for us. That was the difference. We love playing in front of this crowd — they give us something extra, I’ve never experienced anything like it.”

The long road back continues this week as the Crabs take on the Solano Mudcats for a three-game set staring Tuesday night. They will close out the series with a huge home game on the Fourth of July before heading back out on the road. Overall, 11 games in 13 days, but Humboldt’s boys of summer enter this week on a high note, with plenty of magic still up their sleeve. Go, Crabs, go!

Heckles of the week:

To a Lincoln Potters player: “Stand up so you stretch out your jersey, we can’t even see your number, half squat.”

Upon the aforementioned player’s strikeout: “You must be THIS tall to ride this ride lil’ guy!”

Apocalyptic Roots

A Quiet Place: Day One and The Bikeriders

By John J. Bennett screens@northcoastjournal.com

A QUIET PLACE: DAY ONE. In the before times, when A Quiet Place (2018) was released, it seemed unlikely to spawn a series, much less to outlast and outwit the 800-pound gorillas that were essentially unbeatable at the box office and in the popular consciousness. But in a sort of “turnabout is fair play” moment, Jim from The Office (John Krasinski) remade himself as a viable action star and then as a director and then as a writer-producer shepherding an artistically and commercially successful franchise through the American movie industry’s dying of the light.

Having helmed and starred in the first installment of this alien invasion/domestic drama/low-key horror enterprise, he subsequently wrote and directed A Quiet Place Part II (with credit to originators Bryan Woods and Scott Beck), which, in the midst of the still-wounded uncertainty of 2021, offered more than enough reason to venture back into theaters. And now, based solely on anecdotal observations on my part, he has used his newfound but hard-earned clout to cede the writer/director’s chair to Michael Sarnowski, whose Pig (2021) was as welcome a surprise as Krasinski’s own sequel (he retains a story by and producing credits, of course).

Where the aforementioned gorilla has struggled mightily to legitimize itself — to whom, one wonders — by snatching up promising directors of independent features and then enlisting them to color by numbers and/or be lambasted by the faithful for wandering off the path of formula, the forces behind A Quiet Place have allowed chapter three to become an almost anthology addition to the franchise by allowing Sarnowski to add his particular stamp without losing the thread.

The first movie having dropped us into a world already beset by space monsters with impossibly acute hearing and then drawing us into the challenges of a family uniquely capable of navigating the crisis — a through-line continued in the second chapter — Day One abandons the bucolic setting and familiar characters (save one) to tell a separate but connected story about the beginning of things.

Samira (Lupita Nyong’o), a poet frus-

trated as much by the boredom of ending her life in hospice as by her illness, is convinced by a well-meaning nurse to join a group for a trip to a show in New York City. Compelled by a diaphanous promise of a real slice of pizza, she packs up her adventurous support cat Frodo and tags along. In the midst of a surprisingly affecting marionette performance, she wanders into the streets just as the lizard-spiders descend. In the chaos of the war-torn city, she manages to find refuge and, perhaps, an end-of-life plan more suited to her temperament than wasting away in a dorm room adrift on Fentanyl. This is complicated, as it must be, by Frodo’s discovery of a law-student named Eric (Joseph Quinn) who is even more alone than our protagonist. They forge a mostly unspoken pact to make their way to the soon-to-depart evacuation boats at the South Street pier. Day One is not viscerally scary, but then it doesn’t feel as intent on presenting itself as a horror movie as its predecessors. Instead, it takes the fundamental premise of the story (quiet must be enforced) to challenge the primary cast to reveal their dramas through internalism expressed, by showing rather than telling. Simultaneously, Sarnowski deploys the inventiveness borne of necessity that defined a whole generation of indie filmmakers, deepened and expanded here by the addition of money to spend. The movie relies on special effects to achieve its aims, but there are subtle elements of creative craft at work that lend an air of legitimacy and need to the spectacle. Also, Frodo is a heroic cat equally comfortable on and off leash. PG13. 100M. BROADWAY, MILL CREEK, MINOR.

THE BIKERIDERS. My brother hipped me to Shotgun Stories (2007) not long after its release, and it introduced us both to writer/director Jeff Nichols and to now and forever favorite Michael Shannon. I’ve followed Nichols’ career since then with interest, even as I have occasionally missed some of what he has offered us (mea culpa). He emerged as a new auteur at an unlikely moment and has been able to continue building a catalog of strange, insightful, uniquely American character

Protecting my mental health now that the U.S. Supreme Court has declared an autocracy.

pieces ever since. I like what he does, even if I don’t always love it; same goes double for The Bikeriders

As an idea, this movie is as tantalizing as anything that’s made it to theaters in the hinterland in a long, long time: a story about the birth of biker gangs, set in ’60s Chicago and inspired by a book of photographs taken as that story was actually unfolding. Add to that one of the most supercharged casts outside of a superhero movie since the Ocean’s movies and a flashy trailer set to an anachronistic Rolling Stones song, and it seemed like a can’tmiss. Which it almost manages to be.

Anchored by a tremendous performance by Jodie Comer as a working-class midwestern girl falling in love with an outlaw (Austin Butler, continuing to prove he actually does have the goods) and his lifestyle, The Bikeriders falters in its attempt to straddle a line between square-society and the titular fellows who kind of want nothing to do with it. The result is a muddled narrative, perhaps overburdened by underdeveloped characters and seasoned actors. Tom Hardy, Norman Reedus, Boyd Holbrook, Shannon, Mike Faist, Damon Herriman and others are all invited to chew on the scenery (deliciously, it must said), but the result is neither as immediate nor as dangerous as it needs to be to truly serve the material. R. 116M. BROADWAY, MILL CREEK. l

Rise and Fall of the ‘Sunshine Vitamin,’ Part One

By Barry Evans fieldnotes@northcoastjournal.com

Vitamin D is essential for a healthy body, in particular, strong bones. The sunlight-bone link was recognized nearly 200 years ago, when dark, smoky skies in newly industrialized cities in England led to an epidemic of rickets: weak and deformed bones, especially in children. In the 1920s, the vitamin D link was further established when German chemist Adolf Windaus figured out that high-energy ultraviolet rays (UVB) in sunlight leads to the body synthesizing vitamin D — for which he got a Nobel Prize. (Strictly speaking, “vitamin” D isn’t, since vitamins are organic molecules needed for survival and but not produced naturally by the body.) The main function of vitamin D is to allow our bodies to absorb essential calcium, magnesium and phosphate needed for healthy bones.

When most people spent much of their lives outside — hunting, farming, foraging — they got plenty of vitamin D from sunlight. It’s available in a few foods, too, like fish but, historically, we’ve gotten all we need by simply being outside. Until a few years ago, that is, when we were abruptly told, “vitamin D deficiency is common in all age groups.” The quote is from Boston University endocrinologist Michael Holick, who led the charge to compensate for what he called “a vitamin D deficiency epidemic.”

In 2011, Holick was the chairman of the Endocrine Society’s guideline writing committee when it established what, in retrospect, were unrealistically high vitamin D levels that effectively labeled 80 percent of the population as deficient. The society’s extreme guidelines led to billion-dollar-a-year boom times for the vitamin D supplement and testing industry, not forgetting tanning beds. (Holick advocated the moderate use of tanning beds as a “recommended source” of vitamin D, despite their classification as carcinogenic by the International Agency for Research on Cancer in 2009.)

About the same time as the Endocrine Society recommendations, the National Academy of Medicine (then called the Institute of Medicine) issued a 1,132-page report saying that beyond 16 nanograms/ milliliter (the way vitamin D in blood is measured), there were no bone-strengthening effects. Several IOM members later published an article in the New England Journal of Medicine saying that a more reasonable cutoff would be 12.5 ng/ml. Fewer than 6 percent of Americans have less than this level. In contrast, the Endocrine Society’s guidelines categorized anything less than 20 ng/ml as “deficiency” and 21-29 ng/ ml as “insufficiency,” with a recommendation of 40-60 ng/ml for adults and children. Although he denies it, the fact that Holick received more than $100,000 from companies making vitamin D supplements and tests may have influenced his immoderate views. (A New York Times article, “Vitamin D, the Sunshine Supplement, Has Shadowy Money Behind It,” Aug 18, 2018, makes for disturbing reading.)

The Endocrine Society is currently updating its guidelines for vitamin D guidelines. The methodologist on the committee, Christopher McCartney of the University of Virginia School of Medicine, told Scientific American, “Our conflict-of-interest policy is much more transparent and rigorous than I think it has been in the past.” Which, hopefully, is bad news if you happen to be in the vitamin D manufacturing or testing industry.

Next week, I’ll review the observational studies that led to the myth of vitamin D being a wonder “drug,” and how it since lost much of its luster. l

Barry Evans (he/him, barryevans9@yahoo. com) wonders how someone with financial ties to the vitamin D industry could have led an influential committee that classified 94 percent of us deficient in the vitamin.

Martin Michael Campusano

October 14, 1960 - March 29, 2024

Martin Michael Campusano passed away at his home on March 29, 2024, following a lengthy battle with cancer. As was very typical of Martin’s personality, he was courageous and pragmatic during his illness. Even during the most difficult times, Martin maintained his sense of humor and his propensity for telling corny jokes – he’d rather see people happy and laughing.

Martin was born in San Francisco, California where he lived with his mother, father and three older sisters, Deborah Romano (Rod), Linda Castro, and Cindy Sweeney. They also lived in Hayward and Fremont, California.

As a young man, Martin’s journey in life led him to a number of places such as, Texas, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Crescent City. He eventually joined his mother’s move to McKinleyville, California, and spent a good part of his life in and around Eureka, California, where he seemed to have found home.

Martin enjoyed the outdoors and ultimately found landscape work to be a vocation that fit his personality. He and his step father, Kent, started a Landscape Maintenance business, Mow and More, in McKinleyville.

He had a number of hobbies including building a plethora of model rockets, launching LED Balloons, 3D Laser cut wood models of different types, and his beloved burl. Additionally, he loved reading science fiction fantasy novels. He also became quite an aficionado of Hot Wheels cars, acquiring a significant collection over the years.

Later in life, Martin had an opportunity to live out a multiple mid-life crisis event by purchasing a boat, jet skis, two Harley Davidson’s, and a Corvette. He put all of those vehicles to good use, as well as a gifted motorhome.

Most of Martin’s education was built upon the school of “Hard Knocks”. Martin never complained – He simply picked himself up, dusted himself off and got back in the saddle.

Anyone that knew Martin knows that he was a kind hearted, loving and caring person. He was a proud father and grandfather and loved his family with all his heart.

Martin was preceded in death by his mother, Marilyn St. John, and father, Michael Campusano.

Martin is survived by a large family. He had a few companions during the course of his life. With some, he brought children into this world and in some, accepted his companions’ children as his own. Amber Smith and Michael Campusano, Mother Laura Lee Smith, and Hunter Rhoades, Mother Mary Schroth. Amber Smith has a son, Isaiah. Michael Campusano and Madeline have a son, Cillian with another on the way. Hunter Rhoades and Twyla have a son, Rune. Martin spent twenty wonderful years with Mary (mother of Hunter) and they remained close friends after separating.

Martin married Teresa (Johnson) on August 16, 2022, Eureka, California, which brought additional children, grandchildren and joy into his life: Trevor Buchholz (Angela), Aurora, Terra and “TJ”, Jason Orlandi (Wendy), Gianni, Azzuri and Aviva.

The family would like to extend a heartfelt expression of gratitude to all of the doctors and staff at the University of California San Francisco Medical Center Cancer Unit, and Providence Hospital Cancer Unit. We are so grateful for all of your hard work and dedication on behalf of our Martin.

There will be a Celebration of Life, in Loving Memory of Martin Michael Campusano on July 13, 2024, 12pm – 6pm at the Moonstone Beach House, 122 Moonstone Beach Road, Trinidad, California, 95570.
