Richard Henderson (left), 26, of Standard and his defense attorney, Roger Bolin, listen as three counts of murder against Henderson are entered into Putnam County Court during a hearing Thursday afternoon in connection with the January killing of Diamond Bradley, 16, of Spring Valley.

Murder charges entered against Henderson Oct. 1 trial date remains in place BY DAVE COOK news@putnamcountyrecord.com HENNEPIN — Putnam County State’s Attor ney Christina Judd-Mennie has added three counts of murder to the charges against Richard Henderson of Standard. Henderson, 26, is the suspect whom investigators believe killed 16-yearold Diamond Bradley, of Spring Valley, and left her body along a rural Putnam County road more than seven months ago. Bradley was last seen on Jan. 23, and reported missing the following morning. Her body, stabbed multiple times, was found Jan. 27, and Henderson was taken into custody on Feb. 5.

Putnam County Sheriff Kevin Doyle has said Henderson was arrested after being interviewed at the police station following tips, interviews, surveillance cameras, Diamond and pings from Bradley’s cellphone that link Bradley him to her death. Henderson was initially charged with the Class 3 felony of concealment of a homicidal death and was being held on a $1 million bond. The three additional felony murder charges will each carry additional and concurrent $1 million bonds with 10 percent to apply. Henderson has entered pleas of not guilty on all counts. The charges were entered during a motions hearing Thursday afternoon in Putnam County Court presided over by Judge Stephen A. Kouri. Defense attorney Roger Bolin

previously entered a motion to dismiss the concealment charges based on the Speedy Trial Act. He has argued the state has exceeded Christina the 120-day limit of Judd-Mennie the Speedy Trial Act, and Putnam County Putnam State’s Attorney ChrisCounty state’s tina Judd-Mennie has attorney argued the past three continuances were agreed upon by both sides at previous hearings and that by doing so, the 120-day count would have stopped during those periods. Illinois Assistant Attorney General Bill Elward said Bolin’s arguments were “specious” and a moot point because of the superseding indictments now facing Henderson.

BUREAU/PUTNAM COUNTY COMMUNITY PARTNERS AGAINST SUBSTANCE ABUSE

Raising awareness about deadly opioids CPASA organizes Overdose Awareness Week presentations

The most commonly used opioids Here is a list of the most commonly used opioid drugs: Heroin Oxycodone Vicodin OxyContin Tylenol 3 Tylox Percocet Percodan Codeine Demerol Morphine Fentanyl Dilaudid Methadone Opium Hydrocodone

BY DAVE COOK news@putnamcountyrecord.com PRINCETON — In recognition of the ongoing opioid epidemic that has swept over the country, the week of Aug. 31 was designated as International Overdose Awareness Week. At Princeton’s Prouty Building on Aug. 29, the Bureau/Putnam County Community Partners Against Substance Abuse (CPASA) presented a series of informational programs about opioids, their different forms, addiction and overdoses. “It’s much easier for people to say ‘I have heart disease,’ or ‘I have diabetes,’ than ‘I’m an addict,’ or ‘My son, or daughter, is an addict,’ and then to seek help,” CPASA consultant Terry Madsen said of society’s need to get past the stigma of addiction and treatment. He added many addictions take hold following legitimate prescription drug use, and that addicts can quickly find themselves using and abusing heroin and other opioids and at risk of an overdose. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), one person dies every 19 minutes from prescription drug

Dawn Conerton, CPASA project coordinator, demonstrates how to administer the Narcan nasal spray that is carried by emergency responders. This-live saving treatment interrupts the effects of opioids on the body during an overdose. It is available over the counter and without a prescription at the Walmart pharmacy. It is also available at other pharmacies, but only with a doctor’s prescription. “You can’t be afraid to ask for help, either for yourself or for a family member you’re concerned about,” Conerton said of those fighting addiction. abuse in the United States. Madsen said 66 percent of the more than 63,000 overdose deaths last year were caused by opioids. According to the Illinois Department of Public Health, opioid over-

doses killed 1,946 people in the state in 2016, an increase of 82 percent compared to 2013. In addition, overdose deaths from prescription opioids doubled during that same period, and heroin overdose deaths

Source: CPASA quadrupled. Deaths from synthetic opioids during that time increased tenfold. Opioid misuse and overdose deaths are highest among non-Hispanic whites, men ages 20-64, and in poor and rural populations. In 2015, there were eight overdose deaths in Bureau County, and those numbers have since been in decline.

Death is first caused by West Nile virus in LaSalle County SHAW MEDIA

Illinois’ first human case and death due to West Nile virus was confirmed in LaSalle County on Aug. 29. A LaSalle County resident older than 65 became ill during the first part of August and tested positive for West Nile virus, according to the LaSalle County Health Department.

• HENDERSON Continued from Page 2 Kouri said the Speedy Trial act was “not to be used as a trap,” and while he agreed to recalculate the days in question, he also told Bolin to “assume you’re going to lose this motion.” Bolin also questioned the composition of the grand jury and the competence of the evidence presented

• AWARENESS Continued from Page 4 One of the ways area officials worked to reduce overdose deaths was by ensuring emerg ency responders were trained in the administration of Narcan and carried it with them. This relatively low-cost opioid antagonist interrupts the opioid compounds in the body, possibly saving the life of an overdosed addict. “What we didn’t realize until

The hometown of the resident was not released, because it may help identify the resident, according to the health department. “The report of a death is a very sad reminder that West Nile virus continues to be a serious health issue. This is the time of year we expect to see the potential for human cases increase,” said Chris Pozzi, director of Environmental Health in a press statement. “West Nile virus thrives in dry, hot weather, and our area has definitely experienced those type of conditions this summer.” There was a human case previously reported in LaSalle County in

2017. There also were cases reported in 2014, 2013, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002. There has not been a death reported in the county from West Nile until August of this year. Last year, the Illinois Department of Public Health reported the first human West Nile virus death in Illinois on Sept. 29. During 2017, there were 90 human West Nile virus cases, including eight deaths. There are currently 22 human cases around the state. West Nile virus positive results in humans, birds, mosquitoes, and/or horses have been reported in 58 counties this year, including LaSalle County,

where mosquitoes tested positive in Ottawa and crows have tested positive in LaSalle and Streator. West Nile virus is transmitted through the bite of a mosquito that has picked up the virus by feeding on an infected bird. Common symptoms include fever, nausea, headache and muscle aches. Symptoms may last from a few days to a few weeks. However, four out of five people infected with West Nile virus will not show any symptoms. In rare cases, severe illness including meningitis or encephalitis, or death, can occur.

to the grand jury, saying the indictment was defective. Kouri denied this motion and added a supplement to court records after accepting a sworn statement from the foreman of the grand jury in regard to the number of jurors present. A brief recess was allowed for the attorneys to discuss whether they wished to have one or two trials. Both sides agreed all charges would be tried at once, and the original Oct. 1 trial date would

remain in place for the time being, although a continuance agreed upon by both sides could result in a later trial date. If they had agreed to hold two trials, the 120-day limit would have required the murder charges to be tried by the end of December. I llinois As s is tant Attor ney General Mary Claire Nicholson announced the state will be seeking an enhanced sentence for Henderson if he is convicted of the murder

charges because of the crime’s “brutal and heinous nature.” If convicted, Henderson could face a sentence of life in prison with no chance of parole. A status hearing is scheduled for 1 p.m. Sept. 13. Kouri requested the attorneys meet with him on Sept. 6 to let him know whether they anticipated a continuance. If not, this would allow time for jury notifications to be issued in time for the Oct. 1 trial.

recently was that while overdose deaths in the area have been in decline, the use of Narcan has been increasing,” Madsen said. He said brown heroin is the most common form found in the Midwest and that it’s increasingly sold in capsules. He also discussed the dangers first responders can face while reviving overdose victims, as well as the possible exposure to synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. Fentanyl can be absorbed through the skin, and even a small amount can prove deadly.

The CDC says the two main groups at risk for prescription drug overdose are the 9 million people who report long-term medical use of opioids, and the roughly 5 million who have used opioids without a prescription or medical need in the past month. According to the National Safety Council, drug overdose is the No. 1 cause of preventable death in America. “You can’t be afraid to ask for help,” Dawn Conerton, CPASA coordinator, said.

Conerton also said the form of Narcan that is administered nasally is available without a prescription and over-the-counter by request at Walmart, the only local retailer to do so. She added that other local pharmacies can also provide Narcan, but only with a prescription. “If you ask your doctor for a Narcan prescription for a family member you’re concerned about, they will provide you with one,” she said.

PUTNAM COUNTY

Confused by Medicare? Help is available at the Putnam County Community Center BY DAVE COOK news@putnamcountyrecord.com STANDARD — The Putnam County Community Center (PCCC) will be entering the autumn season with an abundance of programs and services local seniors and their families will find valuable. Among the most important will be help with Medicare and other benefits. Enrollment events are held every other month at the PCCC, and Janice Holst, the center’s outreach worker, has also started making monthly visits to the county’s libraries. “The library visits have been great,” Holst said. “We don’t require an appointment, and people like the convenience of having us in their own town. Even if we reach just a handful more people than we would have without them, it’s worth it to us,” she said. Holst will be at the Hennepin Library from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. on

Sept. 13. She will be answering questions about the benefits and programs for those 60 and older. From 9 to 10 a.m. on Sept. 24, Holst will host an enrollment event at the PCCC to help with Medicare Part B Prevention and Wellness benefits; Medicare Part D; the Extra Help/ Low Income Subsidy; the Medicare Savings Program; and benefit access. “Medicare Open Enrollment is right around the corner, beginning Oct.15 and going through Dec. 7. Each year, Medicare beneficiaries should review available Part D plans to ensure they have the best plan for their needs,” PCCC Executive Director Michelle Halm said. Through the Senior Health Insurance Program (SHIP), the PCCC has trained counselors who can provide unbiased help as well as enrollment assistance. “Last year during open enrollment, PCCC SHIP counselors saved clients more than $38,000,” Halm said.

The best way to protect yourself against illness is to wear insect repellent and to get rid of any stagnant water around your home to reduce the number of mosquitoes.” Monitoring for West Nile virus includes laboratory tests for mosquito batches, dead crows, blue jays, and robins, as well as testing humans with West Nile virus-like symptoms. People who observe a sick or dying crow, blue jay, or robin should contact the health department at 815433-3366, which will deter mine whether the bird will be picked up for testing.

ILLINOIS VALLEY COMMUNITY COLLEGE

English and German instructor spent around 3 years in Germany BY BRENT BADER Shaw Media OGLESBY — A light rain fell upon Jim Michael, 78, as he biked to Illinois Valley Community College on a recent morning. Protected by a red rain jacket and St. Louis Cardinals baseball cap, it didn’t bother him much. He’s taken the 3-mile bike ride from his home in Oglesby just about every day of his 50-year career at the college, but his ride Aug. 28 will likely be one of his last visits as he cleans his office and prepares for retirement. Michael said it takes much stronger weather to get him in a car rather than on a bike seat. “It’s very satisfying to get somewhere on your own power, I think,” he said.

It started with reading The English and German professor started at the college in 1968 as an English instructor after getting his master’s degree from Northern Illinois University and teaching English in the Peace Corps while in Turkey, where he also learned Turkish. He said a love of reading stories at a young age, such as Mark Twain’s “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer” and history books, steered him toward a career teaching English and literature. Eventually he grew to appreciate the works of authors such as Jane Austen, William Shakespeare, C.S. Lewis and William Faulkner. He appreciates the way in which he can vicariously connect with another person’s life or story. “I can experience things beyond my own experience. To experience what it was like for people living during the Civil War or in earlier times,” Michael said of his passion. “I was just interested in getting that kind of experience.” Common works read in his classes included Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice,” Charles Dickens’ “Bleak House” and his personal favorite play, William Shakespeare’s “Hamlet.”

Sabbatical in Germany Michael then began teaching German at the college in the 1970s and became the college’s first professor to take a sabbatical when he went to

Shaw Media/Tom Sistak

English and German professor Jim Michael bikes to Illinois Valley Community College in Oglesby as he’s done almost every day of his 50-year career. Michael was cleaning out his office as he prepares for retirement. Mainz in West Germany to receive his master’s in German. He said the experience of being swept up and surrounded by the language was inspiring, and he was always interested in teaching German. “A lot of people think German is a harsh sounding language and, well, it can be harsh, but it’s never seemed that way to me,” Michael said. “It depends more on the person speaking than the particular language you’re speaking. “I think people talk about French as so mellifluous and Italian, and that’s true, but German can be too,” he added. “I think that’s the stereotype of the Germans as Nazis or (as they’re shown) on ‘Hogan’s Heroes’ and all that.” He added the German and English are “like cousins” in that a lot of the basic vocabulary is recognizable such as summer being “Sommer” in German and beer being “bier.” He also brought back everyday items from Germany to show in the classroom such as a familiar food or magazine.

“Now I’m trying to get rid of it all, but back then it wasn’t so easy to access things in Germany,” he said. Michael noted the introduction of computers to the school as being one of the most noticeable changes during his time at the college. He remembers some professors were less inclined to adapt to the new technology, but it has since improved the resources available for language learning so that students can easily view similar items online or even take virtual tours of Germany. But nothing quite compares to an in-person visit to the country. When asked how many times he’s since visited Germany, he’s hesitant to give a firm number and decides that it has to have been a least a dozen visits with an estimated three years being spent in the country.

Exchanging homes for a year One of the more memorable visits was as a part of the college’s Fulbright Exchange program wherein a professor from Germany came to teach in America while an IVCC

professor went to Germany. Both lived in each other’s houses during the year-long program. “It was really interesting,” he said. “We knew their neighbors, and they knew our neighbors. “And of course, my friends sort of adopted her and her family so they’d be invited to our house by the Germans and they’d say, ‘It’s so weird being in your house and you’re not there,’” Michael added with a laugh. “They fit right in.” Michael was able to take his wife, Jeanette, with him as well as his 5-year-old daughter Sarah, who completed first grade in a German school and was able to communicate in German by the end of the trip. The family returned to the country after the Berlin Wall came down to work on a church in East Germany with 15 other volunteers. Michael had continued homeschooling Sarah in the German language and upon their return six years later, she had become invaluable to the non-German volunteers. “They called her the pocket translator,” he said with a smile. He translated his experiences in Germany into teaching methods and always encouraged students to visit the country, and when they did, they shared their own stories with him.

‘It was a habit, I guess’ Michael retired in 2002 from teaching full-time at the college but continued teaching for an additional 16 years. “It was a habit, I guess,” Michael said with a short laugh of his additional teaching years. “I’ve been doing it for so long.” He looked through his office that he shares with another teacher and believes he’s cleaned most of it out. He said some “remnants” still remain, such as a large German encyclopedia in his bookcase and German magazines by his desk, but he hopes to leave something behind for the next instructor. He hasn’t ruled out a future trip to Germany, but most of his future travels will be between Aurora and Peoria to visit grandchildren as well as to Oglesby Union Church with his wife. And while his trips to the college will become fewer, he still expects to head over on occasion to meet with his friends and former co-workers at the college. Just don’t expect him to take his car.

State’s social service organization, delivery need major overhaul

pparently unable to care for our own youths, the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) recently tried to place some of its wards (wards of the state, meaning you and me) with Indiana state social service agencies. But the Hoosiers rejected our pleas: “Sorry, Illinois, but you’re a bad payment risk.” ProPublica, a non-profit investigative news organization, reported recently that DCFS wards were languishing in Illinois mental health facilities much longer than necessary because DCFS had no place for them to be placed. Thus, the efforts to place wards in nearby Indiana facilities. A DCFS staffer noted that parents of institutionalized children will often refuse to take their children back, which creates an immediate need for placement. Throughout my half-century of

UNDERSTANDING ILLINOIS Jim Nowlan observing Illinois, DCFS has continually been on the front pages – for such as allegedly failing to prevent a child’s death by neglect, or for failing to take another child out of a home where an abusive, possibly violent boyfriend lurks in the background, just out of sight. It’s an impossible job. We ask mostly young, poorly paid, overwhelmed DCFS caseworkers, with way too many cases, to play God, that is, recommend whether to take a child away from a dysfunctional family, or to leave the child in what could possibly become an abusive, dangerous situation. Out of thousands of such decisions, mistakes are made, with often grisly consequences. And it’s a dangerous job as well. Last year, a DCFS caseworker in northwestern Illinois was brutally beaten, and later died, as she tried to take a 2-year-old into the protec-

tive custody of the state (representing you and me). Over the decades, including today, DCFS has had many talented, highly professional staff; they wear their hearts out in behalf of children. Yet the agency has never really been functional. Indeed, the state of Illinois isn’t even the final word on running the state agency. About 25 years ago, because of apparent failures to provide adequate services, the state signed a “consent decree” in U.S. District Court in Chicago, which now oversees DCFS through a court-appointed monitor. The state has not to this day been able to get out from under court supervision. I think DCFS leadership figured, in part, that the court oversight would give the agency leverage with the governor and Legislature when it came to state funding for the agency. That hasn’t worked, either. DCFS has gone from 3,117 employees in 2008 to 2,577 proposed for this year, and from a budget of $1.3 billion back in 2008 to $1.2 billion in 2019, which represents a serious decline in purchasing power. I can’t find in the 2019 state bud-

get book any numbers for children served, but I am confident that number is not down from 2008. A fundamental problem in Illinois is that the state is not organized to serve children and their parents. Oh, sure, there is DCFS. But many of the issues critical to children and families — mental health, health care, substance abuses problems of parents, and poverty — are all handled by different bureaucracies. I like the proposal of a social service agency leader in my territory: Provide each family a single case navigator at the local level. This case manager could help the family orchestrate whatever services are needed from across the varied agencies. And, important, also assign the case navigator responsibility for measuring the progress of the family toward independence from government. Social service organization and delivery in Illinois need a major overhaul.

‘Don’t compound the atrocity by adding racism, hate’

PRINGFIELD – As I walked through an Iowa courthouse last Tuesday, I heard two women whisper, “Did you hear, they found her body?” There was no need for the women to identify who they were talking about. The whole state of Iowa and much of the nation had been fixated on the whereabouts of Mollie Tibbetts, a 20-year-old University of Iowa student who went missing July 18. When I heard that a Mexican immigrant, Cristhian Bahena Rivera, was arrested in her murder, I groaned. The name Herschel Grynszpan came to mind. Never heard of him? Well, his role in history has been relegated to that of a footnote, but he was once the excuse Nazis used to step up the persecution of Jewish people. On Nov. 7, 1938, the Jewish teenager walked into the German embassy in Paris and shot a

Jim Dunn Editor

Rita Roberts Associate Editor

COMMENTARY Scott Reeder mid-level diplomat. Within hours, Nazis began an attack against Jewish communities throughout Germany, known as Kristallnacht (“Night of Broken Glass”). More than 90 people were killed, more than 30,000 Jews arrested and sent to concentration camps. Of course, Grynszpan didn’t cause the anti-Semitism within the German government. He was just an excuse to act upon it. I use Holocaust analogies sparingly, recognizing it is unlike any other event in world history. But there are lessons to be learned. One is that bad leaders will exploit ethnic hatreds for political gain. I fear that Cristhian Bahena Rivera’s alleged actions may be used by

the Trump administration to paint an entire ethnic community in a false light. Here is what Donald Trump said within hours of Rivera’s arrest: “You heard about today with the illegal alien coming in, very sadly, from Mexico and you saw what happened to that incredible, beautiful young woman. Should’ve never happened. Illegally in our country. We’ve had a huge impact, but the laws are so bad. The immigration laws are such a disgrace, we’re getting them changed, but we have to get more Republicans. We have to get ’em.” So much for that treasured American value of being innocent until proved guilty. The president is trying to use this tragedy to gain political advantage. From Day 1, Trump has expressed a strong tone of animosity toward Hispanics – not just illegal immigrants. For example, during the cam-

paign, he said Federal Judge Gonzalo Curiel, who was presiding over one of the two class action lawsuits pending against Trump University, was a “hater” and later referred to him as a “Mexican,” even though he was born and reared in Indiana. On another occasion, he said Mexican immigrants were rapists and drug dealers. Republicans and Democrats agree that the U.S. immigration system needs to be reformed. They don’t agree on how it needs to happen. Let’s not let the tragic death of a young Iowan be used as an excuse to harm others. As Mollie Tibbetts’ aunt, Billie Jo Calderwood, stated, “Please do not compound the atrocity of what happened to her by adding racism and hate to the equation.”

MTPA will hold tea event MAGNOLIA — The Magnolia Township Preservation Association will hold an Illinois Bicentennial Tea at 1 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 8, in the Community Room at the Museum, 110 N. Peoria St. in Magnolia. This special event is in celebration of the bicentennial of Illinois. A variety of sweets and savories, along with tea, will be served. The program will feature professional storyteller Tricia Kelly, who will portray Elizabeth Parsons Ware Packard, 1816-1897. Packard was an activist for the mentally ill. She worked ceaselessly to bring the mistreatment of those committed for insanity to light and persuaded lawmakers to pass several important laws: a law giving all people in Illinois the right to a jury trial

before being committed, a law giving married women in Illinois the right to control their own property, and the creation of a permanent visiting committee to investigate mistreatment in state mental hospitals. By 1874, Packard had traveled to six states and Washington, D.C. Her efforts changed laws about the treatment of the mentally ill in Massachusetts, Illinois, Maine, Iowa and other states. Tickets are available from any MTPA board member and curator Peggy Smith (815-257-0707). Reserved seating is limited to 50 places. The building is ADA accessible. ADA parking is available in the northeast corner of the parking lot. The east entrance is ADA accessible for both levels of the building.

BUREAU COUNTY FARM BUREAU

Household hazardous waste collection Sept. 15 PRINCETON — The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency and the Bureau County Farm Bureau will conduct a free household hazardous waste collection project from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 15, in the Bureau County Farm Bureau parking lot, 535 Elm Place, Princeton. This project will be open to all Illinois residents. To participate, residents should bring their waste to the collection site during the event hours. The

household wastes will be unloaded and separated into different categories for disposal. The IEPA asks that participants remain in their vehicles during the unloading process. This will allow the contractors to more quickly unload vehicles and help decrease the time spend waiting in line. Accepted items: florescent bulbs, medicine (liquid/pill), household batteries, aerosol pesticides, cleaning products, hobby chemicals, oil-

based paints, lawn chemicals, used motor oil, pool chemicals, aerosol paints, drain cleaners, paint thinners, insecticides, herbicides, antifreeze, pesticides, gasoline, mercury and solvents. Items unable to accept: agricultural waste, ammunition, biological waste, business sector waste, cell phones, commercial waste, controlled substances, explosives, electronics, farm oil, fireworks, fire extinguishers, hypodermic needles,

institutional waste lead, acid batteries, propane tanks, smoke detectors, sharps and tires. Do not bring latex paint. Latex paint is not hazardous and it can be dried or absorbed and discarded with regular trash. No agricultural, business, industrial or school waste will be accepted. This program will run rain or shine. For questions, call the Bureau County Farm Bureau at 815-875-6468.
