Cadiz considers raising legal tobacco age

By JD LONG

The point is to get the people in high school who are 19 years old, [so] they can’t go buy tobacco products for their 16 year old buddies. Caitlin Matthews, Carroll County Health District

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – Caitlin Matthews of the Carroll County Health District, returned to speak with Cadiz council last Thursday to address the village on another project along the same lines as the tobacco-free health areas and issues she’s spoken on in the past. She presented three resolutions she would like to see the village approve: Banning sales of flavored tobacco products, increase the minimum legal age to purchase tobacco products to 21 years and third, ban the sale of tobacco products near parks and schools.

She said young people are beginning to use electronic cigarettes “more and more.” She said the tobacco industry is marketing towards those young people, which is the reason she is pursuing the three areas of concern she hoped the village would agree upon.

Matthews said she and Harrison

County Sheriff’s Deputy and DARE Officer, Tony Sedgmer, traveled to 19 area locations late last year where tobacco was sold and found that nine of those sold to underage customers.

She said three stores specifically in Cadiz sold to underage customers.

“That’s a lot,” she told council and

presented the three options to council for their approval. She asked they review those options then discuss the topic at a later date.

“We can meet again and you guys can tell me what you think would be the most accessible,” Matthews explained.

“But tobacco-21 is a very big one in the state of Ohio right now.” She said there are many others as herself that are going around the state advocating for restrictions on tobacco, such as the ones she mentioned with the age limit being a big one.

“The point is to get the people in high school who are 19 years old, [so] they

Sheriff warns residents of income tax scams With income tax deadline looming, Harrison County Sheriff Joe Myers is warning residents throughout the area of a new twist on the Internal Revenue Service impersonation phone scams.

“Criminals will try anything,” Myers said early this week. “Thieves will impersonate IRS employees.

They make unsolicited phone calls to the intended victims and fraudulently claim to be from the IRS.” According to the sheriff, the most recent scam variation has the criminal “spoof ” the telephone number of the IRS Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) office in Houston or Brooklyn. “The calls are often ‘robo-calls’ that will ask for a return call,” Myers noted. “If a person does call them back, they will ask for personal information, including Social Security number or the individual taxpayer identification number.”

Another variation of the scam is for callers to impersonate an IRS employee and demand immediate payment of taxes by a prepaid debit care or wire transfer. The caller is often hostile or abusive.

In some cases, scammers will tell their victims that they are entitled to a large refund but must first provide personal information. The thief will provide a variety of fake information including a badge number, bogus email address, etc.

“I cannot warn our citizens enough about these scammers,” Myers said.

“They constantly devise new ways to steal from people. I strongly urge folks to never give out any information over the phone that can be used by scammers. Always be overly cautious.”

According to information provided

by TAS, the office never initiates calls to taxpayers “out of the blue.”

TAS can help protect taxpayer rights and if you need assistance in resolving an IRS problem, you should contact them.

In addition, the IRS does not call to demand immediate use of a specific payment method such as a debit card, gift card or wire transfer.

Generally, the IRS mails a bill to taxpayers who owe taxes.

The following are things scammer often do, but the IRS will not:

TULSA – Williams Energy is expanding and has recently bought out the UEO Midstream plant in Scio, which was confirmed in a press release

by Senior Communications Specialist, Keith Isbell.

“Williams consolidates 100 percent interest in Utica East Ohio Midstream (“UEO”) and assumes operatorship,” the press release read. Williams is to receive $1.34 billion in exchange for “for a 35 percent interest in a combined UEO-Ohio Valley Midstream (“OVM”) joint venture…”

According to Reuters, published Monday, March 18, via a press release “Canada Pension Plan Investment Board is expanding its presence in the North American natural gas market through a $3.8 billion joint venture with U.S. energy firm Williams Cos Inc, which will hold pipeline assets in the Marcellus and Utica shale basins, the biggest gas-producing region in the

United States.

“Canada’s largest pension fund will invest about $1.34 billion for a 35 percent stake in the venture, with Williams holding the rest and operating the combined business, the companies said on Monday.

Cyber security addressed at Cadiz meeting

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – The village of Cadiz’s insurance provider representative Joel Bender of Whitaker Myers, spoke at last Thursday’s meeting stating he wasn’t there to bring doom and gloom just after he spoke at length of doom and gloom in the cyber world.

Bender shared some astonishing stories of computer hacking and company/city information being held for ransom-and people who paid to have their information, “returned” to them after being hacked.

“It’s not a question of if but a question of when someone’s gonna get it,” he told council referring to what he felt was the inevitable hacking of the village’s inner sanctum. Malicious Assailant Coverage is the term

for what he was selling the village on to protect themselves from unscrupulous characters in the cyber world.

“And what the Ohio plan has done is they’ve automatically included all of these coverages for all of its members as a necessity,” Bender explained.

“We would like to believe we all live in a small town and things don’t happen to us but I’m here to tell you it does occasionally…”

The reality of it is that it has become a real concern, according to an industry insider who once worked as a government contractor on cyber security at a Maryland facility.

“Companies suffer the most loss but this can happen to anyone,” the contractor said who wished to remain anonymous. He described the cyber crime as completely random “not targeting anybody,” for the most part. But

he did acknowledge it can happen to smaller organizations or communities, such as Cadiz but said it was rare to happen on such a small village.

“It’s usually a problem with a much larger organization,” he stated adding that for it to happen at a smaller entity was not likely but also not impossible. But he agreed with Bender on how hackers are using inside information against these larger companies after acquiring passwords and anything else they can get their hands on.

Bender said they are beginning to see more cyber crime being committed and calling it “pretty drastic when they do.” He said he’s witnessed three cyber attacks in the past few years where he shared one where they had 137,000 records compromised. Bender said it probably cost that entity around

$70,000 in postage alone after notifying everyone involved, which is law.

Bender said they are now seeing more “system hostaging” and ransom situations with one being a hospital computer system being compromised.

“Somebody opened the wrong email that is encrypted and they ended up…paying a lot of money for that ransom in Bitcoin in order to get the keys back,” Bender told council actually referring to the insurance company that had to pay.

He told of another incident where credentials of a CEO was stolen after having their email system broken into. A phony email was then sent to accounting in the name of the CEO asking for a $60,000 transfer and the accountant obliged.

“Sixty thousand dollars was

gone just that fast,” he stated adding that if anything did happen to the village’s information they would at least be covered. Council member Thomas Crawshaw asked what was typical coverage for a village of Cadiz’s size, to which Bender replied, “we’ve received all over the place right now.” When Crawshaw began to explain further what he wanted Bender replied about $250,000 of coverage right now.

“Most of the carriers that we’re running into when we start with our cyber liabilities…they’re looking for somewhere close to a million dollars for cyber liability these days,” Bender explained. He said this would cover legal, forensic and ransom costs where he added more anecdotal incidents of cyber criminals breaking into systems and “wondering around” to see what a company can afford to

pay.

The contractor said one solid way to back your information is to download all information on a system that is completely separate from the network they are on, such as an external hard drive, unplug it then put it in a drawer. If the system gets hacked there is nothing to ransom because you have that backup to just reinstall back onto your system.

Bender told council the cyber insurance would cost the village $852 per year, which Crawshaw said would bring the village back up to where it was to last year’s figure. He later explained that the $852 was what the village received as a discount for being with the carrier for so many years.

Council member, Mike McPeak requested the issue be tabled until the next finance meeting, which council agreed to do, as well as reviewing a risk analysis report to be done in May or June.

Sheriff addresses ODOT work, possible ‘protest group’ activity

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – The safety meeting held on the last week of each month took place at the Puskarich Library in Cadiz this past Monday. Sheriff Joe Myers heard from the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) representative for Harrison County JD Marlatt who addressed some of the work that is being done, as well as planned in the coming months.

Marlatt said they are now doing research for the planned paving on Ohio 331, which he said would be “starting within another month.” He said after that Ohio 151 at the 12-mile

marker (east of Scio), where they’ll be removing Ash trees.

He said the road would be closing from 8 a.m. to around 5 p.m. Marlatt said ambulances, school busses and EMS would get through “with minimal delays.”

Marlatt added another closure to the agenda with Ohio 519 being a three-week closure. He said it would be on a Monday through Friday schedule with the road closing the same 8 to 4 time as Ohio 151.

“We’re going to start at U.S. 250 and work our way west toward U.S. 22 and that will start on the 15th and that will run through May 2nd,” Marlatt explained. “So our intent is to get all the Ash trees removed of every route that we have in

Harrison County…” Marlatt added that most of those trees are dead and felt they pose a hazard to residents of the county.

Another issue discussed was raised by MarkWest’s Ed Gribbon who reported on Earthworks, a non-profit organization dedicated to “protecting communities and the environment,” according to their website (earthworks.org).

Gribbon noted that they were spotted in the Piedmont area and monitoring two of the plants. Mike Chadsey, director of public relations for the Ohio Oil and Gas Association (OOGA), later identified those plants as Humphrey and Barnesville (compressor stations).

Gribbon described them as “protest groups” but are in fact a field research group, according to Leann Leiter, Pennsylvania and Ohio field advocate for Earthworks. Gribbon said they had been on the property and were asked to leave, which concerned Leiter and said they try to be very respectful regarding other’s property.

Chadsey said he had been informed that they only took photographs and were very polite but never approached the gate, which coincides with what Leiter had said.

Gribbon said they were noticed on the sites nearly two weeks ago.

“We had something down south [in] Belmont County I think tampered with one of our

sites,” Gribbon told Myers. “So, we’re looking into that as well.”

He said the “same company” was in West Virginia “doing that kind of protest,” who he later identified as Earthworks. He said it was only one or two people in a vehicle but nothing major and were keeping an eye on things.

Myers said he would send the information to Homeland Security then asked Lt. Joe Fetty, who was present, if he would do the honors. Gribbon said he would share what he knows with Fetty where they planned to get together after the meeting.

Fetty volunteered to be involved and asked if he could be informed anytime they see protesters around the site.

“If they’re out doing a little bit of recon with two million people something’s probably going to be coming, so we want to make sure we get on top of that quickly so we can go ahead and get prepared to see what they’re doing,” Fetty told the group.

Leiter said they have a “pretty clear protocol” on what their mission is and was disturbed that their people might have been trespassing.

“I do take that seriously,” she said. “We don’t try to keep a secret from what we’re doing at all like I said, we really like to take advantage of opportunities for dialogue.” She said they try to be cautious in making sure what they do and where they go.

Har. Co. Hospital hosting workshop in diabetes and healthy eating CADIZ - "Healthy Eating to Control Diabetes" is the topic of the next Lunch & Learn workshop April 4 at Harrison Community Hospital (HCH). Scheduled for noon-1 p.m. in the HCH cafeteria. The program will feature

Jill Spangler, registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator.

She will share information on why it is important to be mindful of what we eat, when we eat, and how much we eat. Educational handouts will be provided.

According to the American Diabetes Association, eating well is one of life's greatest pleasures.

“Having diabetes shouldn't keep people from enjoying a wide variety of foods, including some of their favorites. People with

diabetes have the same nutritional needs as anyone else," Spangler said. "Learn to plan your meals to help you manage your diabetes, and you can thrive with diabetes."

Topics covered will include portion control, moderation,

variety and balance. Lunch & Learn workshops are always held on the first Thursday of every month except December.

Attendees may bring their lunch or buy one in the cafeteria. A snack and beverages will be

provided.

Reservations are not needed. The May 2 workshop, "Hospice 101," will be presented by Valley Hospice. HCH is a division of Wheeling Hospital.

CADIZ

approved, would ban tobacco sales within 1,000 feet of a park or school.

Council member Thomas Crawshaw said he would be in favor of the parks and schools ban as did council member John Vermillion, but he added that he would need to take a longer look at the other two resolutions.

For the age of 21 resolution, it stated that “approximately 400,000” deaths per year and “20.8 million premature” deaths just in the U.S. since 1964 are caused by smoking. It also said 11 states have now reached the minimum age of 21 for smoking tobacco products.

Matthews also touched on the flavored tobacco that has been geared to young people

as well.

Within that resolution it stated that manufacturers have found it “profitable to market flavored cigars, cigarettes, smokeless tobacco and related products that are particularly attracted to youth.” It also stated, while acknowledging more research is needed that at least one study estimated 20 percent of young smokers in the United States “reported using flavored tobacco products within the last 30 days, compared to 6 percent of adult smoker(s).”

The village did sign a nonbinding letter of support to at least consider all three resolutions but no further action was taken.

Foxes Bottom project awarded

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – The Foxes Bottom project that’s been in the works for sometime now has finally awarded a bid to Totterdale Brothers Supply Company.

Harrison County Water & Sewer Clerk Brandi Simmons emphasized that this was for materials only.

She said Totterdale came in with the low bid at $112,935.70, which the commissioners approved.

Simmons said the project could take anywhere from six to eight weeks once it begins. But, she added that there was a problem with installation, which forced them to reject the bids that they received for that

project.

“We have to reject the bids that we received,” Simmons began explaining. “We have reviewed them and we had one bidder not bid it at prevailing wage, and there were some discussions back and forth so we need to reject both bids that we received and we’re going to re-bid just the installation of the project.” Simmons said those bids would be opened on April 10.

Also, Doug Crabtree of the Harrison County Engineer’s Office announced that the NextGen 911 service would be going online that morning.

“We will be switching from our current services to our NextGen 911 going to what they technically call live, or the NextGen 911,” Crabtree stated

and asked that the chairman of the committee be a witness.

Director of Harrison County EMA Eric Wilson said General Dynamics had actually requested that there be an “eyewitness for the county” present for the switch over.

Crabtree said it had been a long time coming and commended the whole committee who worked long and hard.

“Appreciate the support that the commissioners have given us on the project,” Wilson said.

Deb Knight of the Harrison County Jobs & Family Services appeared before the commissioners to request she be appointed to serve on the Ohio Children’s Trust Fund Regional Prevention Council that was created by OCTF. She said that no one from

Harrison County has served on this particular council “since 2016.” The council engulfs 10 local counties (Belmont, Carroll, Coshocton, Guernsey, Harrison, Jefferson, Monroe, Muskingum, Noble Tuscarawas). “…But we’ve never been represented, we’ve never been part of it, we’ve really have had no say in what they’ve done,” Knight explained.

Knight said the council meets quarterly with the next meeting April 25 in Cambridge. She said two can serve on council and is pursing someone but as of now, have not been able to notify the person she is interested in joining her on council. The commissioners approved of her request.

Olive Branch takes on new member, hopes to expand events

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – Lunches on weekends, soup kitchens twice per month and with a summer reading program on the horizon the Olive Branch is adding another foundation to the local community. Military Veteran and now an officer with the Olive Branch, Dirk Harkins spoke on behalf of the organization at last Thursday’s council meeting to explain the Run For Your Life project, which is a part of the Olive Branch.

“It was something I envisioned a while back as a non-profit outreach program to benefit people in the Ohio Valley,” Harkins said, “It’s going to be a walkers-runners club.” He said all proceeds would be going back into the hands of “youth and veterans.”

Harkins said he also wished to

help people with addiction and post traumatic stress or, if people just wanted to change to a healthier lifestyle “we’re there for that, we’re there to support physically, spiritually, mentally.”

Harkins thanked Chairman Sara Dean, who was present, for taking him into the Olive Branch and said he would like his first event to be a 5K-10K option at Sally Buffalo Park for the July 6 weekend. He said there are other events that he’s already gotten other businesses involved that he would like to see take place out there as well.

Council then talked logistics of such a race, which Harkins said would probably extend outside the Park’s boundaries and therefore, need police involvement. Treasurer Amy Ossman said the village would need permission because of the liability involved. No action was taken at this time.

Har. Co. Job & Family Services children services funding to nearly double COLUMBUS – On March 7, 2019, before an audience of county children services agency leaders, including Deb Knight, Assistant Director of Harrison County Department of Job and Family Services, Governor Mike DeWine announced an unprecedented 95 percent increase in the state’s investment in protecting abused and neglected children. That $74 million announcement, along with related spending proposals, makes good on a campaign promise that Ohio should not be last in the nation when it comes to the state’s responsibility for funding such a critical program, Knight said.

“This proposed investment is very needed in Harrison County.

We have experienced an increase in sexual abuse cases over the past year, as well as continued effects on children by family drug use, Knight said. In addition, many of the children that we are forced

to remove from their families require residential treatment, which is very expensive.”

“Governor DeWine is standing up for the vulnerable children and families of Harrison County,” Knight said. “This investment will help us address the crisis in our children services system by providing additional funding for placement costs, serving families struggling with addiction and mental illness, and preventing children from coming into foster care.

In addition to increasing the State Child Protection Allocation by $30 million per year, up from $60 million, to give struggling county agencies the ability to pay the rising costs of serving children, Governor DeWine announced: -$25 million for multi-system youth will prevent parents from having to relinquish custody of children with developmental disabilities or severe mental

illness so that they can get the treatment they need; -$8.5 million to support struggling grandparents and other kin care providers who unexpectedly find themselves caring for children, and to invest in recruiting much-needed foster parents; -$5.5 million to expand the Bridges program for youth who emancipate from our system without achieving permanency; -$4.5 million to expand evidence-based programs like Ohio START and 30 Days to Family to prevent children from coming into foster care; and -$2.6 million to help our caseworkers be more efficient and productive in the field.

“The Governor is saving a system in crisis and making wise investments,” Knight said.

“These programs will alleviate the pressure on our county agency

budget, which has struggled to pay rising costs. But more importantly, he is saving children and families by improving their chance for a better future.”

Harrison County Department of Job and Family Services is a longstanding member of Public Children Services Association of Ohio, which is working with county agencies across the state and other stakeholders to support the Governor’s proposals.

“The Governor’s leadership, with the support of his Administration, will afford Ohio’s vulnerable children and families the quality services that will strengthen our state across the board,” Knight said. “As an association, we stand ready to work with our local legislators on the Governor’s proposals.”

SCIO – Two weeks ago, Dee Heavilin, treasurer of the JewettScio Biddy Baseball Association, requested assistance from the village of Scio regarding the use of the ball field behind the Dollar General store.

Wednesday, council discussed at length what to do and how much, in order to get the field ready for the summer season.

Mayor Michelle Carpenter said she had spoken to Heavilin since and told her the village hadn’t planned on spending a lot of money, or much spreading of stone.

“We weren’t going to put a whole lot of gravel down there and…try and keep it as level as possible as we normally do,” Carpenter said citing what she told Heavilin. “But, as it floods, it doesn’t make good sense for us to throw a lot of money in gravel for it to just all go down…” She said she encouraged the group to use the field next to the B&F Dairy Bar but was told they would not be using it. Carpenter said she didn’t know why they wouldn’t use it after stating it did need some back fencing put it in but

other than that, not a whole lot was needed for that field.

“If they’re not going to use it then it’s on them, it’s not on us,” she told council. Village Administrator (incorrectly identified as Solicitor in the March 16 issue), Jason Tubaugh said the field behind Dollar General was not ready yet, as the dirt portion needed removed and drug. But it was noted that there were other problems and felt that more money was needed to fix it up.

One of the problems is not being able to get enough help to supplement the few volunteers that have pitched in over the past two years. Council member Carol Davy touched on the issue of gravel and was told AEP had bought some and would donate what they had, which was a surprise to the rest of council. But she said she informed the committee that they would prefer not to spend a lot of money on that field because of the flooding issue, as well as conflicts with the water plant and fencing.

“We’re not investing a lot in permanent improvement but we can help…get it so they can play on it,” Davy said what she told the baseball group. She said they

had been practicing on it and was told some people could come forward with some help.

“And we don’t know where we’re headed other than get that field (near B&F) down there ready but if…it’s not ready to play on how can we tell them to go down there and play, so you guys decide,” Davy told council.

After moving away from the subject they began discussing again what they could do when council member Andrew Turner asked if they wanted to give the baseball association $200, Davy said “you can’t just give them money” before deciding on what to do.

“I honestly would feel better if they gave us a shopping list,” Carpenter told council, who then discussed what to do about a port-o-john that was asked about.

Some suggestions included sharing the cost with the association, which led them to approve the donation of the remainder of paint they had stored.

Council member Erin Thompson then motioned for the village to donate use of a port-o-potty and supplies, which was to come out of the park fund “not to exceed $1,000 from the spring, 2019 season.”

Council approved the motion.

The American Legion, Cadiz American Post 34 celebrate 100th anniversary An anniversary dinner was held March 14 at the Cadiz Legion.

Hosting Legionnaires were Ladies Auxiliary, Sons of the American Legion, and American Legion Riders.

Opening ceremonies were done

by Commander Stephen Keesey and everyone was welcomed.

Their six World War II veterans were named, Mr. Myron Thompson, Mr. John Tabacchi, Mr. Roy Hieldreth, Mr. Jim Talbot, Mr. Joe Blodgett and Mr. Fred Phillippi.

The American Legion formed March 15, 1919, The Cadiz Post was chartered July 15, 1919.

Meeting agenda was Flag Salute, Pow/MIA Flag Reading, Pledge of Allegiance, and Preamble with that part of the program.

They would break for dinner.

Dinner menu was baked steak, mashed potatoes, gravy, cooked onions and mushrooms, green

beans, creamed corn, and then a piece of 100th decorated cake serviced by the kitchen help.

After dinner, Commander Keesey introduced the three guest speakers: Administrator Miss Linda Trushel of Help Me Grow programs, what they do for the areas of Harrison and Jefferson Counties. Then, Mrs. Courtney Mason as the Home Visit Supervisor, visiting homes to help people in need. The Cadiz American Legion work to help their program service.

Next Keesey introduced Mr. John Tabacchi, 101 years old and the oldest member of the Legion Post 34, for 62 consecutive years.

He got a standing ovation. He spoke about him and John eddy Ray going to the service together.

Mr. Tabacchi was the first to be drafted from Harrison County.

Then he spoke about the good times and tried not to talk about

the bad times. After speaking, he received another standing ovation and a 100th Anniversary Coin.

Next up awards were presented; Legion Member of the Year award went to Theresa Price and Legionnaire of the Year award to Ron Romshack.

After that, Ed Long gave a little update on the American Legion 100th speaker, G.I. Bill and other programs to American is involved in.

Finally winding down, Keesey thanked the set up committee, kitchen cooks and helpers and clean up committee. They went on about needing Legionnaires to help get new members into the Post — especially young ones.

They also need new officers; nominations are coming up soon and about a month later, there will be a voting date.

The Friends and Neighbors 4-H Club met at the Ryan Center in Wintersville with Ethan Zifzal presiding. Melissa Zifzal and Sabrina Yeske are advisers. Plans were discussed for the Iron Chef cooking contest, window decorating contest and if a future fund raiser were needed. New officers were elected: Ethan Zifzal is president; Caleb Zifzal, vice president; Lindsay Zifzal, secretary; Emma Morrison, treasurer and health officer; Elizabeth Hope, news reporter; Cole Saiter, recreation leader; Matthew Hope, historian; Kaity Morrison, safety officer; and Drew Saiter, environment officer.

There will be 10 types of soups with a side of cornbread muffins and a beverage for a donation of $5. The events held the past two years have been a great success and they are planning for the same this year.

There will be a Silent Auction, bake sales and a big, furry Easter Bunny where children can go and be seated on Mister Rabbit's lap and have their photo taken by mom or grandma. This will start at noon and let's just say that it will last until all the soup is gone The Shamrocks 4-H Club of Harrisville decorated a window for the Harrison County 4-H Extension during Ohio 4-H Week. It was of red and white striped popcorn containers and the names of 4-H members and what their projects would be this year were on movie tickets. It was located at the Harrisville City Building.

Last week I was told that a Sharon Andrews would like me to call her. I did and we had a long conversation about the difference between children and events of yesteryear and today. She and I agreed that children went outside in the morning and did not come in until they were called for a meal or darkness fell. Whichever came first. There were no knee pads for skating with their key tightened skates. With no seatbelts back then, if a child wished to take a nap on the back seat he was in danger of being thrown to the floor if dad had to make a quick stop. That was a rude awakening. Yes, Sharon, I know all about those days and I enjoyed talking with you.

Did you know that there are 510 farms in Jefferson County and most are an average size of 155 acres? The landscape of the county is not good for row crop production so farmers produce milk cows and cattle to compensate for the land. This was part of the education provided during Agriculture Week, celebrated March 17 to the 23. And the Jefferson County Farm Bureau Promotion and Education group celebrated its Ag Baby again as the group has done in many years in the past. The baby, Daxton James Dvorcek, was born on March 19 at 1:23 a.m. and weighted 8 pounds and 12 ounces. The parents are Megan Nestor and Derek Dvorcek of Mount Pleasant. There is a little sister who loves to hold her tiny brother, Hensley Grace will be 3years-old in May. Debbie Nestor of Wintersville is the proud grandmother.

Rape suspect held on $2 million bond

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ – A lengthy preliminary hearing was held Wednesday in Harrison County Court for Robert Eikleberry, 77, on the first degree felony charge of rape against a victim whose age is less than 13 (actual age is nine). Eikleberry is a Shadyside resident but the alleged crime took place at a Cadiz residence. He is also being charged with gross sexual imposition (F3).

Eikleberry was represented by attorney James Nichelson who argued fruitlessly that the circumstances did not call for a charge of rape. He also argued for his client to be released on his own recognizance. Judge, Mark Beethem, though, ruled in favor of the state and Assistant Prosecutor, Jack Felgenhauer that a bond of $2 million be held in place and that the charge of rape should stand.

Nichelson argued that since there was no evidence at this time of penetration then basically, the charge of rape could not be substantiated and

said that “sexual conduct” required penetration and there “must be some evidence.” He said that after watching Eikleberry’s interview by police he never said he penetrated the alleged victim. But Felgenhauer argued that according to Ohio Revised Code (ORC), that the guidelines on what oral sex means is not the same for intercourse and is “proper grounds for rape.”

Regarding the issue of bond, Nichelson noted his client’s age, has no record, has a long association in his county (Belmont) and is no risk for flight and has been cooperative.

Beethem, after a brief recess, returned with his ruling and sided with the prosecution on both arguments.

“Proof of penetration is not required where the allegation is that there was oral sex…”

Beetham said as part of his decision. With graphic detail, Felgenhauer presented video evidence of Eikleberry’s interrogation by Cadiz Police Officer, CJ Byers and Lt. Ron Carter after his arrest where the suspect admits committing the crime and is seen signing his

Cadiz police officer CJ Byers is sworn in (far left) before testifying in county court Wednesday. Byers and Lt. Ron Carter interrogated Robert Eikleberry of Shadyside, who was charged with rape against a minor. The video of the interview was shown in graphic detail as Eikleberry admitted all his involvement and also signed a Miranda waiver.

Miranda waiver. He also admitted where he touched the victim and how he did it.

There were other revealing statements by Eikleberry on the police video where he became emotional and began sobbing uncontrollably stating, “I messed up” and “ruined everybody’s life.” He called what he did “stupidity” and admitted that he knew it was wrong and

also knew that someday he would get caught.

“I’ll never do it again,” Eikleberry said to police, but with the suspect’s age and if convicted, it’s unlikely he’ll ever get that chance.

According to the indictment read by Felgenhauer, the alleged abuse occurred from March of 2018 until March of this year.

Three plead guilt in Cadiz robbery case

By JD LONG

jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ – Out of the four codefendants in the Cadiz robbery that occurred on W. Warren Street back in November of 2018, three have now pleaded guilty but only one was actually sentenced Wednesday in Harrison County Common Pleas Court.

First to appear was Tristan Ferrell, who was represented by Steven Stickles on the charge of obstructing justice.

Ferrell was not at the scene at the time of the robbery but was later named a co-defendant and charged with obstructing justice. A fourth suspect, Jacob McPeak’s fate, has been delayed, and as of now has not made any plea deals and in fact, appears to want a trial at this time.

Ferrell had been facing up to 36 months in prison and a possible $10,000 fine. Judge T. Shawn Hervey stated that the sentence, though, would be bifurcated (separated) from this appearance even though the court had received an Ohio Risk Assessment (ORAS), as well as an evaluation for

acceptance at the Eastern Ohio Correction Center (EOCC). Hervey said Ferrell was a moderate risk for recidivism and acceptable to EOCC. Joshua Burgett, who was represented

by Bernard Battistel, pleaded guilty to aggravated trafficking in drugs and robbery, a felony of the second degree.

Two other charges were dropped.

Judge Hervey stated that an Ohio Risk Assessment (ORAS) was needed before sentencing.

Sadie Meredith, who was represented by Public Defender C. Adrian Pincola, was the only codefendant who was actually sentenced. Judge Linton Lewis sat on the bench and handed the defendant three years in prison with a chance at judicial release after serving 18 months.

Assistant Prosecutor Jeffrey Bruzzese recommended the three years in exchange for pleading guilty to robbery where the other two counts would be dropped. He added that upon judicial release if granted, she would then serve the program at Eastern Ohio Correction Center and also be subject to a “zero tolerance community control.”

Huskies Baseball off to 2-1 start By: D.J. WATSON NH Sports Writer

SPORTS BAR

CADIZ – Its finally spring, and to fans of Ohio Valley high school baseball, that means it is still acceptable to keep your winter clothing out of storage!

The Harrison Central Huskies opened their season last Saturday in Cadiz, and Mazeroski Field played its part in extending the winter-like environment. After jumping out to a 4-0 lead through two innings, the Huskies and Head Coach Mike Valesko found themselves in quite the battle come later in the wind-chilled afternoon. The 4-0 early lead ended in a 6-5 late game victory for Harrison.

Buckeye Local capitalized on two singles that reached the grass in the fourth, plating two runs to cut the Huskies lead in half. The Panthers kept coming on strong in their half of the fifth, as two outfield plays haunted the Harrison fielders, allowing the visitors to knot things up at 4-4.

The Huskies were able to break through for good after a silent bottom frame in the fifth.

Catcher Dylan Waggoner worked a nine-pitch free pass to start off what would eventually be the scoring sequence that

won it for the Huskies. A Skylar Mazeroski double brought home Waggoner from second, and in the very next at bat freshman Trevor Carman roped a single to right to score Mazeroski.

With a 6-4 lead heading to the seventh, Logan Tonkovich finished the job in the final frame. However, the Panthers didn’t go without a fight. Three singles in the seventh netted just one run for the visiting club.

Tonkovich then went on to

close the door on his twoinnings of relief work, earning his first victory of the season. An infield groundball out directly after Waggoner threw out a Panther attempting to steal second sealed the deal. The Panthers stranded the game tying run at third base.

Ohio State commit Andrew Clelland started the day on the hill for the Huskies. The lengthy junior fanned eight batters before handing the ball off to Tonkovich in the sixth.

Offensively, Mazeroski and Carman led the charge for Valesko’s club. Mazeroski registered a single, double, an RBI, and two runs. Carman followed that up with a pair of singles, a run and and an RBI. Clelland rounded out the leaders from the batter’s box, scoring a run and earning an RBI with a line drive double to left in the bottom of the first.

Lady Huskies are 2 -1 on the 2019 season

By ED BANKS

NH Sports Writer CADIZ - The Lady Huskies softball team has three games under their belts in the early goings of this the 2019 season. They would open the year with a convincing 9 - 3 wins on the road at Ridgewood. They would stumble at home on Monday night with a 10 - 6 loss to Coshocton.

Two errors would dissolve a 6 - 4 Huskies lead in the late going. But like champions the Huskies would bounce right back on Wednesday at Buckeye Local. With just about everyone in blue and white getting hits, the Huskies swept by the Panthers in an 18 - 5 decision.

Starting out on Saturday the Lady Huskies were just as good as predicted. Traveling to West Layfette to take on Ridgewood in their season debut, they came away with the aforementioned 9 - 3 victory. Kaylee Elliott, Britton

Positano and Jenna Young accounted for eight hits to lead the Huskies, with Elliott and Positano evenly splitting six of the hits and Young the balance. At the plate Young would drive in three runs, Elliott one and Joclyn Peshek one run. Young and Kobey Johnson would also draw walks off Ridgewood’s Sue Harding to also help the Husky cause. Inside the circle for Harrison, Elliott would also earn the nod. She would go the distance for Harrison and register five-double ‘Ks” and issue but one free pass.

On Wednesday night at Buckeye Local, good pitching on both sides silenced the first two innings, before the Huskies struck gold in the following three frames. Lexi Ferguson would get things started in the third for Harrison when she drew a free pass. Britton Positano would reach first on an error, while shoving Ferguson over. M. Young would also draw a walk, and Sarah

Touville would score Ferguson on a sacrifice to centerfield. Peshek would get in on the act with tworun double, Johnson hit an in the park home run that scored three runs, and Elliott singled to right.

The Huskies scored six runs in the third, and like a good D J on a Friday night, the hits just kept on coming. In the fourth, Freguson got on via an error, Positano beat out a nicely laid bunt, Touville reached on an error, Peshek drew a walk and Beadling drove in two runs on a hard-hit double. In the fifth, Johnson got a second and fence clearing home run, and Elliott hit safely. In the sixth, Young would drive in Ferguson with a double, Johnson legged-out a single, Beadling reached on an error and Elliott hit a one run single. Elliott was in the circle again on Wednesday. She would book six strikeouts and walk but three in a seven-inning performance.

Schaar, catcher/utility; and Tabitha Stuber, centerfield.

“The team’s biggest strength is the unity between all of them along with the drive to succeed,” Bleininger said.

The Lady Rockets will welcome newcomer Ellie Bower to the diamond this season.

“She will help the team from the circle as well as with her bat,” said Bleininger.

The first-year head coach says there is room for improvement among this Conotton Valley team.

“The main area I hope to have the team improve on is the fundamentals of the game,” he said. “Good fundamentals executed correctly makes a team successful.”

Bleininger says he expects Strasburg to be a strong contender for the conference title this season due to their “long history of success.”

Rockets baseball team will rely on underclassmen

By JORDAN MILLER NH Contributor

BOWERSTON – The Conotton Valley baseball team hopes to improve on last season’s 9-14 overall record (5-7 in conference action).

Dave DiDonato enters his second season as the Rockets head coach, he says the team will rely heavily on their number one (Kris Hostetler) and number two (Nate Novak) pitchers to lead the team.

Hostetler was named first team IVC last season along with first team all-district.

Other players returning for the

Rockets are: Kale Sellards, Ethan Barton, Braden Caldwell, Joey Schaar and Matt Caldwell.

Coach DiDonato says his Rockets team will work on improving defensively in 2019.

“We have to make routine plays routinely,” he said.

After losing four key players to graduation last spring, some underclassmen will get the chance to shine this season.

“We will have to play freshmen in key positions this spring so our success will be determined by them,” Coach DiDonato said. “They need to make routine plays and have quality at bats.”

McDonalds, Wendy’s, and JD Lanes are sponsors of the Student of the Month Program.

Birney parlaying Animal Studies into career BLOOMINGDALE — T.J. Birney is getting a jumpstart on his future by parlaying his studies into a career.

Birney, a junior in the small animal science program at Jefferson County Joint Vocational School, has earned awards for showing cattle. The son of Sherri and the late Phillip Birney Jr. of Hopedale and a student at Harrison Central High School, he has busily groomed animals for county to national events and earned accolades for his efforts. Among his recent events were the Ohio Beef Expo, where he earned grand champion main Anjou heifer and 10th overall heifer; the Michigan AGR, where he earned reserve champion market heifer and reserve champion maintainer heifer; and the Holmes County Preview, where his entry won grand champion high percentage maintainer heifer.

“I have been showing cattle my whole life,” he said. “I do 50 shows a year and have gone through Ohio, Michigan, Kansas, Colorado, Indiana and Iowa. I groom, file and get them ready for a show and started when I was 12.”

Birney also enjoys showing cattle and hogs at the county fair level. He also works with Schroeder Show Cattle, which is owned by Nick Schroeder of Columbus Grove, to prepare cattle for national level shows on weekends and has attended

HUSKIES

left off the bat of Clelland, and sophomore Kobe Mitchell then broke the tie after reaching on an infield error that scored Clelland.

Crown again got the sticks going for the Redskins in the third, knotting the tally at two with an RBI single. However, once again the Huskies weren’t ready to let the Redskins build any momentum, scoring in the bottom half to go up 3-2.

Tonkovich doubled and then rounded the bases later in the inning, crossing the dish after a Mitchell single cleared the way.

The back and forth continued into the Redskins box in the fourth, as Braydon Tomak singled home Brody Hammersly to knot things at three.

Senior hurler Cameron McIntosh tossed a complete game against the Redskins, striking out three while surrendering just four hits. The strong effort from the mound was enough for the Huskies to

hang on to the 4-3 victory.

The one-run successes would disappear on Wednesday, as the Huskies were bested by the Panthers 8-5 in the season’s series finale between the two clubs. A re-schedule from Monday night, and an eventual relocation to Mazeroski Field in Cadiz still wasn’t enough to push the Huskies record to 3-0.

The Panthers home field was still wet from the weather that passed through at the beginning of the week, prompting a last minute decision to play the second leg in Cadiz.

The Panthers took advantage of the familiar diamond, scoring three runs in the sixth and seventh innings to hold off the Huskies. It was 2-2 after five, but that’s when things began to unravel for Valesko’s unit. A late rally in the seventh that plated three closed the gap, but the Panthers had done just enough to put things out of reach.

From PG | 6 found themselves in much of the same situation with a visiting Coshocton team that they were in with Buckeye Local last weekend. In this one, a tight game came down to a Logan Desender wild pitch, with Clelland trotting home from third to seal the Huskies second one-run victory of the season.

The game was tied at three before Clelland capitalized on the wayward pitch in the bottom of the fifth.

The Redskins got on the board first, when Zach Crown pushed one of his two singles on the day into left to score Drew Kittel.

The 1-0 lead wouldn’t hold long, as the Huskies answered with a pair of runs in the bottom of the opening inning to go in front 21. Cruz Capers was brought home by a line drive double into

T.J. Birney, a junior in the small animal science program at Jefferson County Joint Vocational School, is using the skills he’s gained in the program for shows and his future career. Birney, of Hopedale, grooms cattle for local to national competitions and plans to study large animal science and management at The Ohio State University ATI. He is pictured at far left during the Holmes County show with Tucker Shepard, Schroeder Show Cattle owner Nick Schroeder, in black, and presenter Caitlin Schaub with judges and friends.

such events as Michigan State Beef Expo. Birney added that winners receive an array of prizes in addition to show points, the latter which are tallied at the end of the year to potentially gain even larger rewards. His primary role is to groom the animals so they look their best for competition, and that comes naturally since he spends much of his time at the JVS studying veterinary science and animal anatomy but also participates in the school program’s pet grooming service.

“You learn about basic grooming skills and how much work it is and large and small

animal science use it in the same way. I love the school program and how hands-on it is and how nice the customers are,” he added. “You learn how to work and are able to get a real-life situation in high school.”

Upon graduation, Birney plans to attend The Ohio State University ATI to study large animal science and management. For now, he prepares himself through the cattle shows and working with 500 head of Angus beef cattle on his family’s 250-acre farm in Harrison County and uses the knowledge and skills he’s gained from JCJVS.

John Muth Complex in Mingo Jct. gets upgrades MINGO JUNCTION —The John Muth Recreational Complex in Mingo Junction has gotten some much-needed improvements just in time for the sports season.

Indian Creek High School baseball coach Mike Cottis said a $6,500 project was completed on March 20 to upgrade the infield and remedy some growing safety issues. The work was completed by S&S Processing of Pittsburgh within a 12-hour period.

“The baseball field was built in 2001 and it has been maintained by one custodian and the coaches,” Cottis said. “It’s slowly deteriorated over the years and started to become a safety issue with the players. [The contractor] brought the infield grade with the infield grass level, smoothed the infield and improved the drainage.”

He added that baseball players also assisted at the site and material was also donated from Tri-State Recycling of for the warning track that team officials will do

Just think of him as resting from the sorrows and the tears in a place of warmth and comfort, where there are no days and years. Think how he must be wishing that we could know today how nothing but our sadness can really pass away.

And think of him as living in the hearts of those he touched for nothing loved is ever lost and he was loved so much.

Sadly missed by loving family.

DAR celebrates 'Women in History' Month The Moravian Trail Chapter of the DAR met Wed. March 20 at the Harrison Community Hospital with six members and onr guest present. The table decorations and the dessert all represented the theme of St. Patrick's Day as members gathered for a social time.

Hostesses were Peggy Milliken and Pam Harding. Vice Regent Sheila Perkins and Chaplain Kay Singer led the DAR ritual and Chaplain Singer read a devotion entitled 'The Peace We're Seeking'.

The program was presented by Kelley Michelli on Women in History. She made a game of sharing clues about some famous women and asking members to guess who she meant.

Some of these included: Who was called "Angel of the Battlefield' during the Civil War? Who was the Shoshone woman who traveled with Lewis and Clark? and Who refused to

surrender her bus seat to a white male passenger? These answers were Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross, Sacajawea, the Indian guide and Rosa Parks, heroine of the Civil Rights movement.

Kelley displayed pictures and shared information about these women as well as Amelia Earhart, the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic, Sally Ride, the first US woman in space, and Betty Zane who retrieved gunpowder in her apron to help save Fort Henry during the Revolutionary War. She continued with discussions about Harriet Beecher Stowe whose 'Uncle Tom's Cabin' book helped precipitate the Civil War, Rachael Carson, scientist and writer about the deadly effects of pesticides, Helen Keller, who devoted her life to helping others in spite of having lost her sight and hearing, and the Florida Everglades environmentalist, Marjorie
