Modoc has consistently won in dominant fashion, recording 13 victories by 21 points or more this season. The Braves have now won 10 of their last 11 games, improving to 23-5 overall.

During that stretch, Modoc has averaged 61.0 points per game. The loss snapped Durham’s 15-game winning streak and dropped the Trojans to 26-4.

Veterans Day guide to honor local service members

Modoc County DA Voices Public Safety Concerns

Over California’s Elderly Parole Program

Veterans Day is a time for reflection, gratitude and community. This November, Modoc Record is preparing a special guide dedicated to honoring the men and women who have served in the nation’s armed forces.

Modoc County District Attorney Nina Salarno raised concerns about California’s Elderly Parole Program, which allows incarcerated individuals age 50 or older who have served at least 20 consecutive years in state prison to be considered for parole. The program applies to people convicted of serious and violent felonies, including murder and sexual

assault.

The guide will feature profiles of local veterans, community events, support resources and ways for residents to get involved. It will be printed and distributed throughout Modoc and Lassen counties. Stories will highlight resilience, sacrifice and

leadership, while event listings will provide information on parades, ceremonies and other gatherings. Readers will also find details on organizations offering assistance with health care, education and employment, as well as volunteer opportunities and donation drives.

Eligibility for consideration does not guarantee release. However, some recent parole decisions under the program have involved individuals convicted of violent and predatory crimes, prompting concern from some prosecutors.

Submissions can be emailed to info@modocmedia.com.

Veterans Day is not only about honoring the past — it’s about recognizing the ongoing contributions of veterans in our neighborhoods, workplaces and families.

Community members are invited to help shape the guide. If you or someone you know has served, Modoc Media encourages you to submit a photo, name and years of service.

The California District Attorneys Association has opposed expansion of elderly

parole provisions, stating the program applies broadly to offenders whose crimes involved violence, multiple victims or predatory conduct. The association has argued that age alone should not determine suitability for release and that parole decisions can have implications for victims and community safety.

One recent case that

drew attention involved David Allen Funston, who was granted parole by the California Board of Parole Hearings. According to the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office, Funston was convicted of 16 counts of kidnapping and child molestation involving

multiple children, some as young as 4. Authorities said he used candy and toys to lure children age 7 and younger. He was sentenced to more than 20 years in prison, along with three consecutive terms of 25 years to life. A judge

Pacific Power’s (PacifiCorp) Wildfire Expense Memorandum Account Application to the California Public Utilities Commission A.26-02-021

WHAT IS PACIFIC POWER REQUESTING?

Pacific Power is requesting to recover wildfire liabilities and legal expenses associated with the catastrophic Slater (2020) and McKinney (2022) fires in the company’s service territory which is estimated to result in a revenue increase of $34.5 million resulting in a rate increase of $34.5 million (or 18.8%) PacifiCorp seeks to finance these costs through the issuance of recovery bonds. This would lessen the rate impact to customers compared to traditional utility ratemaking. These costs would be recovered over a 15-year period beginning in 2027. In California, utilities are required to pay for property damage and other costs resulting from a fire caused by utility equipment. This is required even if the utility operated in a prudent manner.

Total Estimated Rate Increase by Customer Class

HOW WOULD THIS IMPACT THE AVERAGE RESIDENTIAL CUSTOMER?

If Pacific Power’s request is approved, the estimated average monthly residential bill of a customer using 850 kilowatt-hours will increase by approximately $39.17 in 2027. The actual impact will vary based on terms of the bonds, usage and other factors.

Continue from page 1 described him at sentencing as “the monster parents fear the most.”

Funston, 64, became eligible for a parole hearing under the Elderly Parole Program after serving 20 years of continuous incarceration and reaching age 50. According to a news release from the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, CDCR transferred Funston to law enforcement authorities Feb. 26 after Placer County issued a warrant for his arrest on new charges. He had been scheduled for release on parole.

Funston was sentenced in 1999 to life with the possibility of parole for

crimes related to the sexual abuse of children, including kidnapping and lewd and lascivious acts with a child younger than 14. He was found suitable for parole at a hearing before the Board of Parole Hearings on Sept. 24, 2025.

On Jan. 9, 2026, Gov. Gavin Newsom referred the case back to the board for an en banc review, in which a majority of commissioners reconsidered the decision.

On Feb. 18, 2026, the panel reaffirmed its decision.

The Placer County District Attorney’s Office has since charged Funston with violating Penal Code section 288(a), lewd and lascivious acts with a child. A no-bail warrant was issued, and he is being held at the Placer County Jail.

Ring each word as you find it and when you pleted the puzzle, there will be 14 letters left over. They spell out the alternative theme of the puzzle.

Answer on page 8

Prosecutors said the charge stems from an alleged sexual assault of a child in Roseville in 1996. At the time, Funston was convicted in Sacramento County and sentenced to three life terms in prison. Placer County prosecutors did not pursue a separate prosecution, citing the life sentences already imposed.

The Placer County District Attorney’s Office said it refiled the 1996 charge within the statute of limitations following recent parole developments.

Salarno said the Modoc County District Attorney’s Office supports efforts to review the Elderly Parole Program and remains focused on policies related to public safety, accountability and victims’ rights within the criminal justice system.

Obituary

Robert “Bob” N. Clark

Robert “Bob” N. Clark, 82, of Alturas, California, passed away on February 23, 2026. Born to Glen and Alfreda Clark, Bob grew up with a strong work ethic, a steady spirit, and a deep love for his community. Much of his life was shaped by the ranches of rural Northern California,

where he spent decades working cattle, mending fence lines, irrigating fields, and doing the kind of honest, physical work that keeps a ranch running. He was known for showing up before sunrise, staying until the job was done, and lending a hand to neighbors

without ever being asked. Those who worked alongside him remember a man who could calm a nervous horse, handle tough jobs without complaint, and fix just about anything with a piece of wire and a pocketknife. Branding was one of Bob’s favorite jobs on the ranch, and he took great pride in the teamwork, skill, and tradition that came with those long days.

In addition to his years on the ranches, Bob spent a significant part of his working life with the Modoc County Road Department, where he later retired. His steady reliability, practical skill, and willingness to help made him a respected and valued part of the crew.

In the last several years, Bob and his companion Tammy spent countless hours exploring the mountains of Modoc County on their side-by-side, enjoying the quiet country, the open views, and the simple time together. He also shared several memorable trips with his brother Dick, the two of them talking endlessly about old times and reliving the stories that shaped their lives.

He was a proud member of the Modoc Tribe Ride for 40 years and a dedicated member of the Elks Club

for 25 years, both of which brought him deep connection and community.

Bob is survived by his companion Tammy, his son Kevin Clark, his brother Dick (Sandy) Clark, and his three grandsons: Kyle Clark of Alturas, and Brian Clark and Tristan Clark, both of Minot, North Dakota. He is also survived by several nieces and nephews, including

Brook (Bill) Davis and their children Justin and Kaylee, and Brandi (Tom) Shinn and their son Tyler, along with many other extended family members.

He was preceded in death by his parents, his brother Art, and his son Tracy. Bob requested that no services be held.

He will be deeply missed by his family.

Early Thunderstorms Rattle Modoc County

As February ended and March began, Modoc County experienced unseasonably early scattered thunderstorms. While thunderstorms are common in the area, they are more typical during the warmer months.

The storms were sudden and brief, but some were intense. On the afternoon of March 1, lightning struck within the city of Alturas near Carlos Street, followed by a loud clap of thunder. Residents reported seeing a bright flash and hearing thunder strong enough to shake their homes. The storm brought heavy rain. No damage was reported.

That same afternoon, lightning struck a tree in Lake City. A resident reported foot-long wood splinters scattered more than

100 feet along County Road 1, damaging a nearby fence.

Residents also described a bright flash and a blast loud enough to rattle windows.

Between storms, residents

saw a bright double rainbow between Cedarville and Eagleville and distinctive cloud formations over Alturas.

LEGAL NOTICE NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE

OF:

Richard Howard Brooke, Sr.

CASE NUMBER: PR-26010

To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: JRichard Howard Brooke, Sr.

A Petition for Probate has been filed by: Kimberly A. Williams and Richard D. Brooke, Jr. in the Superior Court of California, County of: Modoc.

The Petition for Probate requests that: Kimberly A. Williams and Richard D. Brooke, Jr. be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

The petition requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.

above. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. 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 or (888) 902-3989 or visit these internet websites or www.nestortrustee. com, using the file number assigned to this case 202515755-CA. 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.

The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or have consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: April 03, 2026,

NOTICE TO TENANTS: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil

96101. Phone: 530-933-1440.

at 10:00 a.m., Dept. 1. Address of court: Superior Court of California, County of Modoc, 205 South East Street, Alturas, CA 96101.

If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

If you are a creditor or contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of the first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets and of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

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 this 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 (866)-960-8299 or visit this Internet Web site https://www.altisource.com/ loginpage.aspx using the file number assigned to this case 2025-01254-CA. 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.

NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction, if conducted after January 1, 2021, pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (866)-960-8299, or visit this internet website https://www. altisource.com/loginpage. aspx, using the file number assigned to this case 202501254-CA to find the date
